/vt/ - Virtual Youtubers

Why hasn't anyone had the balls to start an all-male corpo? You know that shit would print money. But it's always either all-female, or mixed. I feel like people are missing out on a huge business opportunity here and I can't figure out any logical reason as to why.

Isn't a little too soon to be celebrating? Just because you have no reservations about collabing with males doesn't mean you are chomping at the bit to do it as soon as humanly possible. I swear these people are living in their own little world with the way they perceive others to function. I have never seen so many completely botched understandings of human interaction as I have before I started coming to this board.

Simple, as others have pointed out before as to why males generally have lower numbers, women have a tendency to go towards high value men, attaching an established name like Nijisanji or a brand tangentially related to an established name like Holostars is related to Hololive automatically raises the value of the talent, after the gen is announced, you'll see a variation in choice due to character design, but all are technically more or less high value males more or less before debut, post-debut the inherent value gets added and it will snowball from then on, Vox had pretty good rolls, he got one of the better designs in Luxiem, and his voice and personality added to the inherent value women find in him. A negative of this is that not everyone is Vox, so as soon as a genmate gets a lead, he'll never lose it. As to how this would work in new corpos, a new corpo group by virtue of being new has no percieved value to women over an indie, small female corpos fill a gap between people who mostly want high production streams so they watch corpos, and people who want more personal interaction and thus search for Twitch 1views, this gap is is so small it might as well be non-existant when it comes to female viewers, you'll rarely see a female viewer dumpster dive for a male to watch, at most they'll go down a peg in which corpo they pick and might pick someone like Luca over Vox thinking that the slightly lower numbers actually gives them a chance. Assuming someone ignores this and goes through, the Vox problem would happen, the guy with the better model and voice would overtake his genmates, and unlike niji, because all your talents are male a big chunk of your company's income relies on one guy, even Phase Connect doesn't suffer from this, a big chunk of income is definitely Pippa, but I feel that if she graduated Fishman would manage to keep it afloat.
>Why not make a male corpo that targets males wanting a bro experience
Most of the males capable of providing bro experience have already made it on their own as tradcam streamers/YouTubers, take Anomaly, he has similar numbers to a lot of Holo roommates, do you think he'd drop his Twitch and YouTube channels to do the same shit but as an anime boy and having to take a cut? Of course not. Now, let's assume you take yet another risk and take a gamble on people who aren't established yet, it could work in theory, but it's such a large amount of gambles you'd be taking it might make more sense to take whatever money you would've invested in starting a corpo to instead bet it all on roulette and hope the ball lands on the number you picked

The majority of vtuber fans are male and most male vtubers have a majority male fanbase. Some corpos have tried pandering to females by debuting all-male units, but they've all failed because females only care about popularity.
The best way for a male vtuber to succeed is to just be a regular dude playing games and doing variety content.

There's a degree of path dependence that you're not taking into account. The only companies with the experience, name recognition, brand loyalty, and so on are mostly female-fronted. Nijisanji EN is probably the most ideal version of what you're talking about, and they haven't experienced as much success as you're describing.

Because of course it’s still majority a male hobby. And most men are straight. Of course female vtubers would have the priority. And if you do bring in males, there’s no reason to not have females unless it can be proven that there are fujos just as obsessed as male unicorns that would greatly prefer an all male company

Yeah, and making an entire company around one fucking dude is dumb. Should just debut on his own, have some unique gimmick to attract attention, and the fujos will come like hens to the rooster

Being a vtuber is a debuff for a male, towards a male audience.
