The whores will attract usual ethot audiences and then they will find the vtuber fad too burdensome and then they will lose their vtuber audience and fuck off eventually when normalfags forget it is a thing. Be more worried about ensuring your current oshi doesn't get swept up in peer pressure.

That was never the rule of vtubing, there's always been vtubers who show themselves and intersperse their real selves with their vtubing as well as vtubers who don't and prefer to keep everything about their real selves a secret, it's only corpo tubers from Hololive or Nijisanji who are contractually obligated to not reveal their face who specifically cannot show themselves, and only on their vtuber account specifically there's no problem if they show themselves on their roommate, not all vtubers are created equal and have to follow the same rules and trying to suggest that really shows what an EOP Holobrony they are.

I'm pretty sure there are jap idol groups whose members are vtubers as well as 3DPD idols, so you know the actual face of each member. They're literal who groups yes but even in japan they have some of them that show their faces. Also here in the west we've had avatar/no facecam YouTubers who went on to reveal their face later in their careers, so you can say that the aspect of face reveals is just part of western internet content creation.

There's a lot of flared temper on both sides, because this is 4chan and tribalfags gonna tribalfag, but if we take a step back, I think what's actually happening is that virtual youtubers are a collision between two cultures - the anime otaku side, and the twitch streamer culture, and arguments like this demonstrate some of the abrasions and incompatibilities between the two. The Otaku side want vtubers to be more akin to a fantasy experience they can buy into. It's like, say, watching real-time K-ON. There's an expectation that none of your beliefs or boundaries will be threatened, that 3DPD and this is an inclusive, 2D experience. The character is just the character. There's an unspoken contract - give me this fantasy I want, and I'll drown you in supas. This is especially prominent with Holofags, because, well, a lot of them are anime fans who got into this fandom through Chinks who clipped pre 4th gen Hololive and that heavily edited style of clipping is very reminiscent of anime. People might treat Coco as a martyr now, but back two years ago we had constant >ORANGE WOMAN BAD threads because she brought a level of "realness" that was breaking immersion for many Holofags.

On the other hand, issues of identity are more flexible with western streamers and youtubers. Who you are online is malleable, in that context, as it is for most streamer cultures around the world, even Japanese ones. But that's generally a different segment of the population from the diehard Yuruyuri fans or whatever. While the parasocial relationship is there for both the anime and streamer halves, the streamer fans are generally more interested in the "candor" and openness of streamer culture. They don't want kayfabe, so much as they want the streamer analyzed through various shades of identity. And the streamers themselves are more flexible with their identity. I STILL fucking hate BSapricot for fucking up the patches but I'm not gonna blame her for showing her face online, this segment of the fanbase welcomes it and is alright with this flexibility.

I don't think there's anything wrong with either approach. Sometimes I think the indie tubers are too dramatic and whorish, and sometimes the Holos are too fake for me. But I respect people who like the candor, and people who like the contrivance. That said, it's silly to say which side of the conversation is "right". Many HoloJPs also stream under IRL identities, as do many other Japanese vtubers. Are we going to start bitching that P-maru and Tomozaku Sugita are also in the wrong here? On the other hand, the constant use of Unicorn as an insult is silly too. While some retards go overboard, there's nothing wrong with saying that this vtuber doesn't deliver GFE that I want, so I won't pay or watch them.

But all this will fall on deaf ears because /vt/sisters don't actually care about what's right or wrong, you just wanna dramafag and gossip for the (You)'s.

The main reason why any vtuber's fanbase even wants a face reveal is because it is seen as taboo. Forbidden fruit tastes the sweetest. Doing this gave her fanbase a momentary surge of satisfaction, a 'peek behind the curtain', and her a whole host of headaches.

With the taboo broken explicitly by her, now people who see her in public will feel entitled to approach her the same way any celebrity or streamer gets approached, without even the fear of community backlash. By presenting her real appearance as directly linked she breaks down the boundaries even further, which is not what you want if you want the 'it's just a character' card in your back pocket to save you from controversy. If anything, that card is already fragile enough; it doesn't need weakening even further. Being a 'character' didn't save Dr.Disrespect from getting shit heaped against him when he talked about covid conspiracy theories or mimicked accents in a way people considered racist; people just say that if you dared to say such things, even in character, it still reflects on the real you. It all depends on who you happen to piss off.

Just by virtue of the existence of this photo being 'official', she's given tacit permission to any dramabaiting site to post her real face alongside any yab; even with a mocking 'mortal disguise' title, and unlike other vtuber communities which could scare these sites off by claiming that they are violating X vtuber's privacy, her own community and her no longer have any leg to stand on. Putting a real photo out as a vtuber is a supremely short-sighted thing to do and opens you up to lots of bullshit you wouldn't have to deal with otherwise.

Yes. If you want to be a vtuber, your real identity must be hidden and this secrecy is the great equalizer that makes it possible for shy, ugly or just privately minded girls to showcase what they can really do and who they really are. That's the benefit of anonymity.

A chuuba who shows her face has no place in vtubing, because she doesn't actually want to be a vtuber but a common e-thot. Inevitably a thot is a thot, so any dishonest chuuba will always show her true colors (face) and thus be filtered from the sight and attention of actual fans. There is no danger for keyfabe, or vtubing, coming from intentional face reveals (e-thotery) because doing so immediately places you at the bottom of the industry. The secret of vtubing is that is showcases your personality. You live and die by that. If you have no personality however... then you default to showing how "pretty" and "sexy" you are. So we loop back to the initial thesis.

But you do this in real life too. It's just a matter of what you consider acceptable white lies or lies of omission. Or more importantly, what your particular audience finds acceptable. Just because your audience decides to use 'it's just a character' as a convenient handwave to dismiss some dishonesty that isn't important to them, doesn't mean they really buy that excuse when it comes to things that actually matter to them.

For example, imagine if a vtuber goes 'hey its my mortal form', leading the audience to believe that it's a legitimate face reveal, even keeping it up by posting more images over months with little descriptions of what they're doing, receiving constant praise and fanart of her 'human' looks, and then it turns out that she bought images from another person and she is much uglier IRL? Her audience would lose their shit. No amount of 'it's all just part of my character, guys, calm down' is going to work.

As you said both sides are incompatible, hence why western side are trying to mold it to their views. I personally hate with a passion these roasties retards posting their IRL face on their chuubas accounts.

There are two kinds of men and women; (1a) women who are secure with their own self image and don’t seek validation from others, (2a) women who are not secure with their own self image and do seek validation from others, (1b) men who are secure with their own self image and don’t seek validation from others, (2b) men who are not secure with their self image and seek validation from others.

2a is the group that becomes egirls and instathots. They seek validation from 1a and 1b first and foremost, but it can be hard to get. So they settle for 2b, who seek validation through said egirls and instathots, or other girls in 2a who can’t or won’t put themselves out their like that and admire them from a distance as femsimps.

These women are only larping as confident, beautiful, intelligent women.

Were people actually mad about froot's face reveal when other vshojos have done the exact same thing? How down bad do you even have to be to unicorn these sluts out of all people.

Let supply and demand sort it out. If the kayfabe has superior value, the vtubers using it will out compete the others.

>unless that guy is actually my friend or family
Isn't that worse than the guy being a total stranger, though?

The hilarious implication in the OP pic is that any vtuber who doesn’t post their face is ugly as sin. Why do women always have to put down other women to feel better about themselves? It’s the same with the flat ass shit.

Women are unable to separate competition from socializing.

Depends on if you have feelings for the girl or not. In my case, I am not one of the parasocial viewers. I just don't want to hear about some dude I don't even know or see.
