/vt/ - Virtual Youtubers

Tick tock JP

Don't jinx Korone in this, anon

>the old guard who are now hitting their 30s are leaving to avoid being stuck in vtubing for too long
why are people panicking about this? you don't stay onto a job for too long, otherwise you're fucked if it runs out

>>5575050
Neck yourself, falseflagchama.

vtubing is not a good career choice in the long run

she told you once before anon, vtubers are fairly new development all things considered. What you're seeing is just some of the first, some of these girls might last years to come but its hard to tell still. If anything this is the beginning of some people realizing you should just enjoy what you can while you can and to not take it for granted.

>>5575012
Least these ones are giving you guys closure

I know all of mine are still continuing on elsewhere but this hurts the most

>>5575162
The vtuber fad probably has 2-3 more years before it's irrelevant, the Hololive girls and the more famous Niji vtubers will be fine. I won't be surprise if the lesser known vtubers start graduating next year en masse.

>>5575343
I wouldn't call it irrelevant but it will lose it's appeal and just be another niche at worst or akin to pewdiepie at best (ie BIG but nothing surprising anymore as we've seen it all)

All things considered, this is looking to be a very harsh year for chuubas.

>>5575012
Buy reincarnation services korone

Oh wait you already did

>>5575343
no, they just are going to start rotating out as older talents lose viewers to the new hot meme vtuber
vtubers are not going anywhere for a long time, maybe the current iteration of "idol vtubers", but the trend of people who don't want to do a facecam getting a model and roleplaying a character is going absolutely nowhere

Ah shit, Holo,Niji,Live. Let's just hope no 774 next

>>5575268
This is the only thing that evokes emotion out of me anymore in life but fuck. Lately it has just been bad.

>>5575012
YUA was the unnoticed bellweather
When she left, it signalled the turning point: the peak of the vtubing golden age was now behind us, and what awaited us was the slow degradation into cartoon e-thot twitch streamers

>>5575965
We already had ethot vtubers but they were jp indies that just phased out or were forced to change thanks to youtube policies making it hard for them to continue on as before

>>5575343
lol nope. it's the most advanced form of entertainment at this point, and it will always be relevant. if anything, it will evolve into something more advanced.
>bbut the missing talents
just like literally any other industry. the old ones just pass their batons to the young ones, and this cycle will keep going on forever.

>>5576511
this, it's going to expand into other areas starting with weeb culture
expect musicians to get vtuber personas like yfubaby and hold virtual concerts in the near future

So, which graduation will make you give up the hobby? For me, it's Korone.

>>5575012
>old guard
>2 years old

>>5575111
Imagine how retarded Soda would've been if he listened to this advice.

>>5575012
>nijishit
who cares

>>5576739
Sora's only been in the game for 5 years anon, she's probably the next big graduation when she moves on

>>5576790
>the realization that ENiggers didn't even know about le eldritch meme
It's simultaneously reassuring and fucked up at the same time

>>5576677
I've had Kaguya Luna, Kiryu Coco, kurumi... go, it's the indies I followed from the /jp/ days that were fellow posters that will make me go.

They ain't as big as the ones I've lost but they're part of the fandom I I joined up with from the start

>>5576923
meanwhile in the real world, AZKI pushed back her planned graduation indefinitely.

>>5576739
2 years is basically how long vtubers have been hitting wider popularity boom. Old guard isnt a term id have used personally however, but it is the retiring of vtubers from the start of the age of widespread popularity which hits some a bit harder especially since a few were so popular.

>>5577327
I think AZKi likes her gig and is trying to expand.

>>5576923
Sora isn't graduating any time soon. She streams more nowadays and she is the literal face of the company. Sora graduating isn't as light as Coco graduating.

>>5575012
save everything because hololive's decline content wise has started and even the chuubas are losing their passion. they're not as committed anymore, the corporation named cover is not letting them breathe & chink spam is now validated by coco graduating.

when coco graduated, that was the end of hololive's peak imo.

>>5575576
I fucking hope the idol vtuber trend dies off. One of the worst things to ever happen. Don't want that idol shit associated with a medium that has such great potential.

>>5577033
hololive global was a mistake

>>5576677
you consider watching japanese women play video games to be a HOBBY? jesus fucking christ.

NIJIKR next.

>>5580028
Where do you think you are, stupid faggot?

help me fuckers how the fuck do I unplug myslef from this shit before I get hurt even more

>>5580368
Become an anti

>>5580491
Shit, is this actually how antis are born? I never considered it.

>>5580368
give yourself about 2 weeks to process it from graduation day and see if you still care or if youve coped.

>>5580491
>>5580538
Speaking from experience here, you will only feel even more pain if you do that.

>>5580368
>He actually invested his emotional well being in virtual whores from Japan
lmao retard

>>5580028
Watching baseball is also a hobby of mine. So are games and reading history books. What is and isn't a hobby to you?

>>5575162
If you can make it to the mid-tiers or above in Hololive or a superchat equivalent, it doesn't NEED to be a long-term career choice. They're probably looking at a lifetime of earnings after just a few years

>>5580803
they don't think like that, the vtuber girls 100% order takeout every night, spend thousands on dumb shit like a 9,000 dollar bed
and don't forget that no org gives any kind of health insurance so they have to pay all their medical shit out of pocket

>>5580491
and then kys. I am become anti destroyer of love

>>5580803
The few years they had are most definitely not enough to live for a lifetime in Japan, after they get fucked by taxes etc. Unless they bought a house and are already investing their money somewhere so they can have passive income.

>>5580028
Ya consider dropping baits on /vt/ a hobby? What's wrong with you?

>>5580883
>and don't forget that no org gives any kind of health insurance so they have to pay all their medical shit out of pocket
Every 株式会社 is obliged to provide NHI by Japanese law, IIRC.

>>5575012

>random kanji in a fully english sentence
why are weebs like this?

>>5575012
It all returns to nothing

>>5583330
Where do you think we are?

>>5576677
I'm into a whole group I watch regularly (at least one stream of each member per week), so unless the whole group graduates, I don't see myself dropping vtubers

As long as my favorite indies and pizza dad (Aruran)remain I'll be happy.
