I'm sure AI won't be going bankrupt the moment Gura surpasses her in subcount, and she's still the most mainstream name in vtubing, but you have to wonder if her current status of getting sponsorships left and right is going to last when she barely has an audience anymore.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VsxRu646CWk

92k views in 4 days for her latest MV and many of her latest videos not even cracking 100k views after weeks is not a good sign for someone who is mainstream and known to normies. No one is watching her content anymore even if she appears on TV and ads. I'm sure the money she's getting is still nice, but I'm not sure how long it'll last.

You make it sound like she doesn't upload any content at all when she's still putting out Songs, which is the easiest content to get views on if you're somewhat popular. The point of appearing on TV events and ads (apart from the money) is exposure and advertising yourself. She gets more mainstream exposure than any Vtuber from her sponsorships and brand name, but it's not translating into attention on her channel. She's a content creator whose content no one watches, does that make her a VAdvertiser instead?

>>5800164
I'm not disagreeing that she's mainstream and her channel not succeeding won't affect her bottom line. However, if you are truly popular and not just a has-been that people know, then your content would still be hot. There's a lot of celebs that people remember and heard of, but are only known for past achievements from years ago and no one cares about their new content. Her channel is a symptom that Kizuna AI is heading down that path.

It's not a title Gura ever wanted but I do congratulate her, for reaching an apex and for not letting it totally get to her. With how quickly she reached 1 and then 2 million subs. She remained calm. Which is all she wants.
She's extremely talented and has a great personality for a performer, but she never wanted to be so huge. I think it's pretty easy to see why she has.

>>5801888
If it was Mori, I think she would be even more overwhelmed with trying to meet expectations. When she hit 1 million it created a mindset that she always had to be full-throttle, without an excuse because it's her only job, and she's only more recently realized that she needs breaks for herself. Getting #1 on itunes was crazy enough for her. Taking a first position and holding it would be almost like a curse.

The "counter" is completely bullshitting at what their current sub count is.

The only public data from YouTube we have is rounded down to the nearest 10k. Gura has 2.95M while Ai has 2.96M.

If you watched the stream, the counter was getting close to 2.96M for Gura. However, the counter checked the public data for Gura, and saw she hadn't rolled over to 2.96M yet.

So it issued a correction, bumping the counted value down by 1k. That's the giant red spike you see.

TL;DR: The counter is just guessing. You're better off looking at socialblade and guessing based on trends in the last 7 days/30 days.

>So what exactly changes?
this does a couple of things to the vtuber community

KAi-> created a miku-like live action vtuber. she was about prescripted clips uploaded to video hosting sites of her mostly goofing around in her 3d rig and singing, basically a quasi fake idol.

~this created a meta of Idol types trying to be vtubers which, despite what Holo-bros want to believe was sorta trashed by Nijisanji who introduced more humorous and adult vtuber streamer stuff. their act was much more twitch then niconico or youtube, but it made some money and was moderately successful, they also introduced gaming to the meta.

-Coco introduced her own meta to the mix... the simpbucks. Prior to coco japanese didn't really tip their vtubers much. It was westerners showering coco with cash that opened the eyes of the japanese vtubers and their fans to tipping content to show support. This helped the whole medium get more $$; so you could argue coco had the biggest impact on the global vtuber scene as she both opened the west to the vtuber "thing" and transformed the economics of it at the same time. Her content wasn't amazingly ground breaking (apart from the English outreach) she definitely played into the Nijisanji bottom-left meta hard.

Gura's meta ~ is actually a more traditional Idol style meta; at least as far as the Japanese are concerned. She's cute and smol which the nips love, and while she can be mischievous she's never mean, and she always tries to leave everyone smiling. She sings as well. She's also funny in a very... seiso manner. Yes she does make crude jokes or say curse words but she usually does it with a lot of innocence and innuendo which can be deniable.

I have Japanese friends from when I was serving in Okinawa, and they tell me Gura is "strong" because she gets huge numbers without being lewd, crude or vulgar, in short she's proof a vtuber can be immensely successful without going bottom left hard. sure there were successful vtubers who were seiso before gura, even in the nijisanji-coco meta, (a lot of them in hololive); but none of them were great successes, either financially or commercially as the idol bros didn't tip like the coco-niji meta fans did (fubuki, korone and pekora didn't see big $$ numbers till gura came along, though they were doing well sub wise).

As for the western market Gura introduced a successful "clean" entertainer to a market that doesn't usually reward clean entertainment on any level. Gamers don't watch streamers who are NICE. People don't watch singers who sing Frank Sinatra and Elvis Presley, or Japanese City Pop (now there is a niche music type). Yet Gura is succeeding spectacularly as a gamer who sorta sucks at games, who's generally clean in content, and who sings very uncontroversial music (country roads? seriously? It's a great slice of red state Americana, but nothing I'd expect a popular youtuber to stream). She also is succeeding in the west using traditional Japanese Moe, something I thought would never happen, in the west a girl needs to show her thong and talk about slinging pussy to get traction; a wholesome young cartoon moe girl never should have taken off in the west. Finally she's made vtubers a much more mainstream thing in the west

None of this is true or matters. Nothing will change within Gura or Hololive, or the vtuber scene as a whole.

Only thing that will change is that people here will cope with "Wow Gura should be more like X since she's the most subbed vtuber" and that's it.

You are living in the past.
Many companies already want to who streams and essentially releases their content for free.
They may not care much about smaller streamers, but bigger ones certainly need some form of permission. That's also why on yt content id often blocks vids/channels without licenses.
Some countries also require other licenses so you can stream schedulded content at all, like in Germany.

It's ok, success breeds jelousy and bitterness, it's a common human feeling. I'm sure you'll eventually get over it as you grow up.

I mean you aren't really annoying anyone, you are just letting the world know a retarded Reddit user named MaybeMagician has spent hundreds of hours in the past week posting the same stale concern troll on reddit, on 4chan anywhere he can is desperation to make his illness addled brain scrape up dopamine from whatever failed schizo loop you are on to do this for hundreds of hours.

What really counts as a Vtuber channel though?
Pewdiepie had a phase where he became a Vtuber, does he count as #1 since he's got 110M subs?
How about WolfyChu who does it as more than just a gag? She's already got over 3 Million?

Did they have to start out as a Vtuber? because in that case, Gura doesn't count. We all know about (((HER))) some even before she debuted. And that old channel had a lot of subs before she became Gura.

I'd only count subs they accumulated as a vtuber specifically. Some eceleb doing like 1 stream doesn't make him officially a vtuber now any more than driving your honda accord on an F1 track for a day makes it an F1 car. Vtubers, legit ones at least, are purpose-built from the ground up for it.

Of which Gura will be the first one to cross the 3m threshold. Really though if you combine all the numbers in Holo it's several dozen million, although probably like 50% of those are overlaps with people subbing to multiple. It doesn't seem common someone is literally subbed to all of them however so there are I dunno, maybe 10 million uniques in the mix? Who knows.

>> No.5826004

>>5825912
On glancing at holostats the combined number of all subs of all Holos is currently 42,832,000. I'd honestly compare that figure to some eceleb more than one single vtuber because Holo is in essence an ecosystem whereas someone like pewdie is one single guy at the center of his own universe, as are most ecelebs.

>She gets more mainstream exposure than any Vtuber from her sponsorships and brand name, but it's not translating into attention on her channel.
Yes anon because she advertise the "Kizuna Ai" brand not the Kizuna Ai ch. Like most anon said here, youtube aint her main platform anymore. Think of her as ur normal minstream celebs that has youtube ch. As their side gig. That's what Kizuna Ai nowdays and she admitted it herself.
>She's a content creator whose content no one watches, does that make her a VAdvertiser instead?
In a way you can say this. She mostly doing ads, concerts, attending events, and putting out musics these days. She is no longer a vtuber, she is a Vceleb now. Think of her as Hatsune Miku with fixed personality

Thanks for proving the point. Kizuna Ai dropped Youtube a long time ago and is now focused on concerts, tv shows, and music.
