>>8170871There's 2 strategies one can take as a vtuber, go for mass appeal - low engagement or a small yet dedicated fanbase, you know the kind of fanbase that writes an original song for you

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Fz3vq_TNm8She doesn't need high views (5k as an indie is actually great, even 2.5k is good) when the people who watch her genuinely care about her and don't see her just as an entertainer.
She made $86.000 in superchats this month so far, and this doesn't include her membership only streams and mildom streams (around 1/3rd of her total streams)
To put things into perspective, this is the same amount Rushia and Lamy got this month, and Lamy had her anniversary, plus there's no Cover cut now.
Lastly, she's been clear a few streams ago about what her mindset is, she doesn't care about numbers and is simply streaming stuff she already does offline, things she has fun streaming, which is why she keeps playing "debuff" games instead of FOTMs that would get her higher viewer numbers.
She's prioritizing her own enjoyment as a streamer and what her longtime fans want.
Hell, ever since clippers started making out of context clips with deceiving thumbnails she's gone almost full 2D and rarely streams with a cam on youtube anymore except for Gunpla building which is impossible with an avatar anyway, despite what shitposters may want you to believe she doesn't want the coomer audience.
Think of it this way, she “retired” and is now doing whatever the fuck she wants without a care in the world.
She also claims to have big plans in the future and being involved in a project she can’t talk about (a consultant for Sony’s vtuber project?) so who knows.Now listen to her sing, she's gotten pretty good
