>>52148655vtubing stopped being a fad to westerners when the lockdowns were over.
honestly? if vtubers were still mostly video based instead of stream based, they would still be hitting it off in non-japanese areas. the problem is that clip channels get most of the views because nobody wants to fucking watch a stream for 4-6+ hours when a clip video can highlight the best moments. this goes for all streamers though.
another thing is that westerners really just cant get over the "BUT WHAT IF ITS LE MAN BEHIND MODEL???" bullshit. it also doesnt help that annoying ass people keep being vtubers (see dramatubers or dumbasses like nux taku)
not like i give a shit though ill still watch who i like kek
