Alright, what's it going to take for a male vtuber to become popular nowadays? With or without a company.

male talent doesn't have the same worth or pull in the idolfag market that female talent does
even if it did, the marketing isn't there because all the managers are stuck in the idol way of thinking

the closest that exists now is nijisanji's Mayuzumi and Kanae, who basically fill the role of cute femboy host that older women dote on and give shit to

Easy, just adopt everything that Allen Ginsberg believed and did. Be a pedophile, write poetry, do heroin, learn voudu, just be a general fat gay lunatic menhera.

merry s pretty popular, he’s probably neutral in content wise.
I enjoy Kamiyaa juu but he doesn’t stream from what it seems

Gamble the way Nijinsaji management did with theirs.

Isn't one of Niji's top earners male?

have to actually give them good rigs, models, and marketing like they do to the female vtuibers
Holostars is guity of this, giving male tubers shitty jank models and stuffing them in the back away from collabs

Just B Yourself :^)
No, really. A successful male vtuber could've made it even as a disembodied voice streamer. Most of the time the vtuber model barely act as a buff and at times even act as a debuff.

Western cartoon style characters marketed towards preteen boys who watch gaming streams. There's just no demand for anime fuccbois.

corpse husband counts as a vtuber whether you like it or not

Don't forget lots and lots of Apex and a small sprinkle of fujobait for garnish.

Being talented at something that isn't just gamer rage because 2d models look cringe when people actually yell like a tyler1.

Astel should get a better model and dominate every vtuber in apex, beating kuzuha as the one true king

Only, he's just too shy for big dreams

Holostars needs dedicate clippers but cover is too stupid for that

[Anonymous No.]

>>3544302
it's a good point that clippers and translators don't do male tubers very often and there's no EN male tubers for hololive or nijisanji so everything is for JOPs only

[Anonymous No.]

>>3544291
he needs a kanae, and i don't mean that in the fujoshit sense. tokyo ghoul is also socially retarded he just has kanae to hold his hand through basic social interactions and introduce him to people. once someone does that for astel he'll be set in terms of networking/collabs. the rest will be up to him to actually make interesting commentary and conversation in his own streams.

Do fucking avatarfags like Cryaotic also count as vtubers then?

[Anonymous No.]

>>3544570
if they are
>a youtuber
>uses a persona/character in place of themselves
>doesn't show up in person and instead uses 3d models and facerig for camera in their content
then yes they are a vtuber
you're forgetting corpse has a fully rigged 3d avatar he uses for "in-person" interviews which 100% counts as vtuber content

Why don't the homos just do their own clipping on an alt account? Just keep a notepad nearby and scribble down time stamps.

Do you know how little that narrows it down?

[Anonymous No.]

>>3544570
Cry and Souix and Mandalore count as PNGtubers yeah.

I thought it narrowed it down pretty well

By being an entertaining streamer who networks a lot and is lucky enough to grab a large enough audience. Basically like any normal streamer. Having a male avatar is not a buff, but it's not a debuff either. Unlike a female avatar it's just another way to express yourself and you have to work hard find your own success just like if you are a normal streamer.

Being in Nijisanji helps for sure, but even there you need to put in the effort to be popular. It's just that the playing field for males and females is more level there.

His rigging might be bad but I like the way his eyes close when he begins to laugh

There's a good amount of people who won't give VTubers a fair chance just because they're VTubers. Let's face it, VTuber audiences can be pretty obnoxious in the eyes of non-weebs. Most people would much rather watch xQcOW or tyler1 or whoever if they want to be entertained.
For a male streamer to blow up, they would have to be at least 1 of the 3:
1. Have a preexisting audience
A good chunk of the people watching Merry are there probably because of his art. I'm convinced the only reason people watch Takahata101 is because of his voice acting history. Going outside the male territory, Nabi's so popular because she drew Ame and the others.
2. Have a nice voice that makes women cream upon hearing
Corpse Husband and Cryaotic who were both associated with an anime avatar at least at some point are popular with millions of women because of their voices. If it weren't for their voices, neither of them would have an Internet career.
3. Be genuinely entertaining and funny, then get clipped a ton/posted on Twitter or Reddit
If someone is genuinely hilarious and entertaining to a wide audience, then he could be popular. The amount of funny streamers, VTuber or otherwise, are very few and far in between, whether they get noticed or not.
Using a male avatar will cripple you a bit at least at first because anime girls are more iconic than anime boys, although shoujo-style senpai males are becoming a more well-known trope in the west.
Using a female avatar will also give you an advantage with weebs/otaku since more men are invested in idol culture than women.

Being in Nijisanji. Outside of utaite the biggest independent male vtuber is gatchman V and he is million subscribers youtuber who do vtubing for fun.

There isn't a market for them because there aren't enough homosexual men and non-lesbian girls already have a boyfriend they don't need an imaginary one.

>>3547514
absolutely wrong
Hosts in japan make so much fucking bank and there is definitely a market for shut in 25-50 year old spinsters who want a cute 20 year old boy to call her beautiful

[Anonymous No.]

Pewds is the last (nu)male tuber. Looking at fan submissions and mentions, I get the picture that even girls will more likely sub to a girl tuber. It will be a niche market until males are so rare on this planet, that girls will fight over them until death.

i hate when people compare male vtubers to popular western streamers like xqc, you are comparing someone who has been streaming for years, play(ed) competitively at an international level, to someone who is streaming a niche of a niche of a niche (anime, vtuber, singing/apex/zatsudan/whatever)

yes, in a game where the pro scene and streaming scene was entirely seeded by blizzard beforehand
though I understand, I hate seeing male tubers compared to XQC since they're way better

Don’t know about you, but my son is popular as hell. He’s basically numero uno on list of vtuber to interact with, on par with Pikamee. There isn’t a person who know him that don’t at least have a good time talking to him and even big names whos constantly come back to watch him. If numbers is the only value, then whatever. I rather someone who is well known within the sphere than some spaz pandering to every shit eating normie and casual.

As the western Fujo/female market is completely dominated by mcyts I can only see one option.
Take one of those creators with the right aptitudes that make girls all of over the the English speaking world super obsessive and turn them into a vtuber thus getting said audiences interested in what other male vtuber's have to offer and getting them the legitimate popularity they deserve.
And I know the perfect pussy drencher for the job well pic related or corpse husband either or would fit the bill really
on a side note getting into mcyts has taught me that a female fanbases are full of shotacons(shounencons?) that don't care about the legality of thirsting after 16 year olds just like I see anons over here thirst after teenage girls, and that there's even a same amount of female viewers obsessed with DILFS as there are males obsessed with MILFS, really made me realize that men and women are shockingly the same in ma y regards

Not going for the pretty anime boyfriend substitute appeal cause the audience for that is demonstrably very small

If anything, the popularity of stuff like ASMR roleplay and all that shit proves that kind of market actually does exist on the west.

Respect to Roberu, he'd be huge if he was in Nijisanji, but he's dedicated to growing Holostars as a brand, he can't even collab with his best friend in holopro clown

i unironically had the same idea but it will never happen especially now that he's interacting less with the fanbase/artists

Cater to fujobait while being in Nijisanji. Or be that hamster whatever thing that does mostly mahjong streams. Though, that latter one I suspect is yakuza money laundering since he always privates the streams that gets the money from SC and only keeps the highlight clips of it. Doesn't even use a cutesy voice, just a regular middle age Japanese man voice. It looks fishy unless someone on here knows the appeal of him.

Being vtuber as a male isn't a good idea. People don't care about your avatar and normalfags aren't going to give you a chance when they see that you're a vtuber. Those male Nijis might seem popular but it's not going to last.

Idolfags are also hakooshi and will support all members to some degree while the fujos really, really don't like to see other male being more successful than their oshis and will try to sabotage them. They have no balls to do something big though so it's mostly insignificant stuffs that don't matter.

I feel like to be sucessful as a male Vtuber, you can't be just a streamer, you have to be a content creator with an avatar. The Spiffing Brit is pretty successful and as far as I'm aware, he has never done a face reveal.
