>>58280165It's an interesting thing to think about.
I remember a discussion a while back about how Hololive feels more "anime" than other VTubers, explaining why they're more popular among the weeb crowd.
Fans that came from the anime crowd treat Holos like anime characters, and so they look forward to interactions between different Holos and fantasize about what dynamics they will have (all of which we can watch and enjoy). Heck, there's people that do this even now with Fuwamoco and Miko/Korone, fantasising about how fun their interactions will be.
At the same time, they're also assimilated well enough that they also understand that Holo girls are "people" as well - hence they tend to moderate a lot of the collab fantasies, hide of R18 art under places they can't search, listen to the girls when they tell you to stop doing something, and tend to generally be very considerate about what the GIRLS themselves prefer.
This is the majority of the fanbase - CGDCT fans.
I've always wondered about the psychology of the homobeggar. How do they even get attracted to this hobby? And why they are so persistent with the begging despite several of the girls telling them to fuck off.
I'm gonna put up a bit of a hot take here - homobeggars are also part of the crowd that came from anime fans. But their favorite anime genre is isekai/harems.
You know the types. Popcorn entertainment coomerbait that you watch and forget, more for self inserting yourself into the bland-ass protagonist for 12 episodes and vicariously enjoying harem shenanigans through them.
But unfortunately Hololive's dynamics usually don't really give them any bland protagonist to self insert on to...
> Oh wait! They have a male group! And they're completely bland fucks with zero personality! I can self insert into them!^ THIS right here is what I think the entire dynamic of homobeggars comes down to.
This is the reason they don't watch Holostars. Because if you watch them too much and start to know and understand their personality, you can no longer self insert into them.
This is why actual Holostars fans tend to be sane people, and why homobeggars act like absolute monkeys.
They don't see Hololive girls as "people" but just "anime girls" they want to fuck.
This is why the most common homobeggar insult is "she'll never fuck you bro" (because she's fucking that bland guy I self inserted into, therefore ME!) and "fucking incels" (I don't care about the girls' personalities or what they want, I just want to fuck them). The ultimate projection.
