/vt/ - Virtual Youtubers

Some akasupa said their wife is dead.

>>5657477
ok that's Epic

>>5657387
>Do married guys & gals watch Vtubers?
Who do you think can afford to dish up those akasupas?

Apparently a mother watched Roberu with her son so much he started talking like her

>>5657387
A happy, high-functioning marriage seems like the wrong viewing demographic for vtubers.

>>5657387
No

>>5657477
>Gura my wife is dead let's goooooo!

>>5657387
Only japs

>>5657387
my spouse and i watch vtubers. we have a few we share

>>5657869
that's cool

>>5657387
Watching clips, I don’t have enough time and nerve to watch some thot screaming in a retarded pitched voice

There seems to be quite a few SCs with "I'm watching this with my newborn/toddler/child", so presumably yes. Especially for Gura streams

>>5657387
I doubt it. My girlfriend threatened to break up with me if I didn't stop watching vtubers so much. Now I just don't mention it.

>>5658021
My friends who I grew up with actually bullied guys who brought anime goods to school, so I never brought up anime topics in conversation and kept all my anime folders hidden & encrypted so they won't find out.

>>5657387
People who are married generally have little to no time to spend on their own interests outside of work so I doubt it.

>>5658150
Same, but I hid them through college as well. Not intentionally but would just act like a normal person towards most people and nobody asked.
I've started to open up more but it is weird when I share a pic, my friends are like "damn since when were you a weeb?" and I say "before we even met"

>>5657869
who do you watch?

>>5657477
There was that one old man who watched Watame because his wife and daughter died in an accident or something

>>5658021
i understand how a hobby of watching idealized women all day is different than being a fan of movie actresses and can make her feel weird but to threaten a breakup if you don't drop your interests is dumb
why not date someone who accepts you, interests and all?

>>5657387
We watch together, she cosplays them, we make fan projects together. Being EOP I profit because my wife speaks Nip through uni studies so she can even live translate.

>>5657985
She has that daughter/ little sister vibe though.

>>5657387
i watch vtubers with my wife sometimes, but mostly shes not that interested in actually viewing. she did get me a nijisanji art book for my birthday though ^_^. she watches speedrunners on twitch mostly

>>5658867
that's hot

>>5657387
one chad in discord got into argument with his wife over lewd holo daki, so yea

>>5657928
yet you're here on /vt/...curious ;)

OP here, thanks for keeping the thread civil and giving your honest feedback everyone.

For me this was the situation >>5658150 so, I never revealed to anyone that I am weeb and now my girl is moving in with me so, there is a chance that she might find out when am watching one so wanted to know - will it be better to come out clean beforehand or just say that "it was just the youtube autoplay that redirected me to this and so was curious what it is" if she ever finds out?

>>5659796
In my honest opinion, I’d tell her the truth. If she’s living with you and can’t be supportive of your interests or at the very least just ignore them and do her own thing then she’s probably not the one. My friend and his wife have been married for 5 years and he still plays Warcraft for several hours a few days a week while she crochets or does whatever she wants to do to have some personal time.

>>5659918
Unless you’re a simp who is sending large sums of money to a vtuber. Then she’d have the right to be upset about that.

>>5657643
There's a surprisingly huge amount of regulars that are married and watch Roberu with their spouses.

>>5659796
Tell her. Lying once is opening the gateway to tension in a relationship.

>>5659941
lost my job during lockdown so, now I'm flipping patties in your run in the mill fast food chains. This is the main reason why we are moving in As its cheaper to split the pay for apartment rent.

>>5659796

I remember when my first uni boyfriend took me back to his and we met on my course and his walls had very good tastes in anime girls on and he was shy. Sat on his face that night and asked him what his favourite doujin tags are, we were together three years and it didn't work out for other reasons- just come clean to her and you never know, she might be a weeb too or find anime or vtubers she likes through you!

>>5659918
>>5660001
>>5660041
thanks everyone for your advice, I will take the day off tomorrow sit down and come clean. Hoping it goes well

>>5657387
My wife knows I'm watching vtubers and she doesn't really care. I sometimes show her some clips I find funny and we watch them together. She likes Korone.

>>5657387
Why would you keep it a secret? It's just like watching a movie or a stand-up comedian. You're just enjoying entertainment.

>>5661139
coz Normies don't like to associate with weebs esp the Female Twitter fags who always associate Anime = Pedophilia so Weebs = Pedos to them. So OP is scared if informing his spouse would ruin their relationship

>>5661368
Marrying someone who wont support or at least tolerate your interests is stupid. What would you talk about for fun?

>>5661429
Coz OP is not married go check >>5660041

>>5660099
>I will take the day off tomorrow sit down and come clean. Hoping it goes well

This sounds like you're going to make a big deal out of it, and I'd advice against that. Like >>5661139 said, it's just entertainment. I'd let it just come up as naturally as possible. It makes sense to note that you're aware there're girlfriend simulators in this particular industry, but no, those are not who you are watching. Unless of course that's exactly who you are watching, but in that case you probably wouldn't have a girl to move together with.

It’s more my hobby, but my wife will watch with me sometimes as long as it’s in English. She’s usually good to watch any Minecraft stream that comes up, and she’s excited for the HoloEn WoD game. My daughter like singing streams and usually if she’s having a day tough day or can’t nap, I can turn on Ina and she calms down once she sees and hears the intro screen.

>>5659796
Holy shit you fag don't need to treat this as coming out the closet it's just the entertainment you watch like movies or cartoons and shit it should be a casual thing not this big deal, if this bitch you hang out would leave you for this don't expect it last. At least wait until she moves in with you to be this pussy whipped.

>>5662052
Your wife is a dumb whore with a fat arse. Did you know that?

My wife watches some with me. For example, she finds Ironmouse's non singing voice super annoying but also finds her really funny and cute, up to 11 when Mousey gets high on meds. She also likes Kiara the most of EN and is really enjoying the WoD sessions (we met while playing Dark Ages: Mage), and is really gonna miss Coco.

She did get jealous and forbid me of watching Nene tho.

>>5662144
Overpopulation is actually a thing you know anon, do the needful and end your miserable existence so that we can reduce the population by removing the excess garbage of our society

>>5662052
It was really nice to know, thank you

>>5663455
>breedcuck complaining about overpopulation
Do take good care of my future cocksleeves for me to enjoy 20 years later from now.

>>5658834
>i understand how a hobby of watching idealized women all day is different than being a fan of movie actresses
the actress is real, so that would be worse

You can be fans of entertainers of the opposite sex without being attracted to them

>>5657387
Anon in a long-term relationship here. My gf has no issues with my hobby but has zero personal interest in it. She tolerates my memberships but would probably cut my balls off if I ever sent a superchat.

>>5660099
would you "come clean" to her if you were watching a regular streamer like XQC?
I doubt you would, why are vtubers any different?

>>5657387
not married but in a relationship of 9.5 years, we both enjoy vtubers

>>5660099
Best thing to do is show her a funny clip that has more broad appeal, like a Korone speaking English / Eekum Bokum clip or Kanata doing Soran Bushi. Based on her reaction, either slowly and gradually come clean or keep it hidden.

>>5658021
Sounds like a toxic relationship

>>5658867
lucky bastard

>>5657387
Lmao this post reminded me of that JP Coco fan, who was constantly being berated by his wife, because he spends too much on Coco, and never on her.

>>5664047
Depends how into vtubers he is. If it's all he used to watch and talk about about or he was spending more money on them than her I can understand her pov. If it's because he dares to have a slightly cringe hobby then yeah, it's toxic.

>>5659530
you should known how few actually watch what they talk about here by now

>>5665134
Not even that. Regardless of the reason, if you're in relationship with someone that won't hesitate to throw the "I'll leave you if you do/don't do ____" card, then it's already toxic to begin with.

>>5666024
So lets say you're with someone for a year, then they start getting really into k-pop, to the point where they're an obsessed stan on twitter and cry over not getting a BTS meal from McDonalds. Or lets say you're in a relationship with someone who likes a drink now and again, but its gotten to the point that when they aren't out partying they're dealing with a hangover. You wouldn't consider breaking up with them?

>>5666121
true dat

>>5666121
For one thing, that's not the point. For another thing, you clearly underestimate how common the situations you mentioned are.
The point is, threatening to leave just because something you don't like happens is garbage. Either you leave or you try to talk over it, you don't just throw an ultimatum.

>>5666255
The situations are absoloutely common, and is absoloutely to the point. However I agree that if the situation goes from not being talked about to an ultimatum with nothing in between, yeah, that's fucked up, but we don't have the full story. At the same time, if I discovered my partner was as obsessed with anything the way that some people here are obsessed with vtubers, I'd demand they see a therapist.

Not married yet but engaged, we've been together for 4 years. We are both weebs and got into vtubers around the same time, we rarely watch them together but often discuss them.

>>5665134
One of Kiaras simps got locked out ofnhis house and said tp hus GF "this is just like what happened to Kiara" and she got pissed, which i can understand, because the first thing her boyfriend is thinking about is some other women, and no her being an vtuber girl doesn't make it any better, it makes it worse necause there is an actual women behind the mask.

>>5660041
You will never be a woman

>>5658711
Yea, they died in a car accident. But it was a wholesome Sc, not a "Im sad, give me attention kinda one.
Pic related, many Married couples watch Watame.

>>5657387
My wife replies rrat when I say ogey.

How are so many of you fuckers married. Im a normal guy irl and i have never had a romantic conversation with a women.

>>5667168
It's called lying on the internet. You should try it sometime it's real easy.

I emotionally cheat on my gf with a sperg womanchild pretending to be an anime shark girl living thousands of kilometers away that doesn't know I exist

>>5657477
>killing your wife to have an excuse to akasupa your oshi
Incredibly based

>>5657387
Not married yet but yeah. She know my hobbies & if i found good vtuber cover i often share it to her. She not weeb but dabbled in art so she quite open & tolerating person

>>5661139
Such a male perspective. From a female perspective it's not "just" an entertainer on a screen, a vtuber is an entertainer that you get to interact with and one who has idealized looks that will never, ever age. It's competition in the emotional space that she has no chance of actually being competitive in because the vtuber can provide a satisfying relationship without anything risked by the viewer. Even if women don't acknowledge this, even if they don't realize it consciously, they know it subconsciously.

My wife "likes" anime and we'll watch shows together, but she's disdainful of vtubers. But it's fine, I'm disdainful of the "Workin' Moms" shit she watches, so it all balances out.

>>5667168
You might not realize this, but you're not a normal guy.

However, if you accept you're abnormal, you can find an abnormal woman.

>>5669816
Jesus, your wife has given you a seriously warped idea of what women see vtubers as being. My gf just thinks they're cringe.

>>5666700
I remember that, it was fucking hilarious. I also agree with the wife in that situation though, guy should have just shut up and kept it to himself.

>>5666700
>>5669953
Imagine being this jealous and insecure.
>emotional cheating
lol yeah right. she's not the one bro

>>5670276
Has your gf forgiven you for simping Kiara yet?

>>5669816
>satisfying relationship
If only

>>5669816
correct

>>5657387
My GF and I watch them. She's more into the dudes and I like the girls, but we both enjoy each other's choices.

>>5660099
>thanks everyone for your advice, I will take the day off tomorrow sit down and come clean. Hoping it goes well

Don't do that. If you're guilty and apologetic to your partner about watching v-tubers she'll be jealous of them and want you to stop, and she'll be right to be jealous. It's just something you like, and if it isn't then you need to make yourself treat it like that now that you've got a girl you're serious about. It's ogey for people in relationships to like things, even things made by sexy people of the opposite sex, so long as they don't take it too far and let it get in the relationship's way. Not being willing to let a partner like things they like is a red flag unless it's something that they shouldn't do in a relationship.

You definitely shouldn't try to hide it though. When she finds out it'll be worse because you tried to hide your enjoyment of other cute girls and she will (correctly) assume that you're doing something wrong.
Be open, be casual, don't make a big deal out of it and don't let her make a big deal out of it. Unless this is bait, in which case congratulations here's your (you).

>>5663825
just get married already

>>5669899
Your gf will probably say whatever she thinks will work to get you to stop watching them. She would probably say the cute girl at your work is cringe too.

>>5657794
MY HOUSE FELL DOWN LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

>>5678407
I committed tax fraud and am going to prison Gura, Let's GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

>>5657387
not married, but in long term relationship. We both watch vtubers and unironically argue whose oshii is better. She also posts here and i'm 99% sure i called her a faggot at least once.

>>5657387
I'm open about it with my wife and she doesn't mind, she likes Risu .She's definitely not anywhere near as into vtubers as I am, so I try not to talk about them too much to avoid boring her.

>>5657387
Fellas is it contrarian to be married?

>>5659796
It's literally over for you unfortunately.

>>5678407
MY WIFE GOT CRUSHED BY A FALLING PIANO LETS GOOOOOO
