>>51630179> They don't get vtubing. Or at least, they don't get why Hololive JP in particular is so popular.>Hololive JP is popular because the talents, for the most part, realize they are selling a product, a dream, an illusion.Again with this cope. Idol culture wasn't responsible for Hololive's success. I can't speak for within Japan, but on the international stage it was funny clips like Miko saying 'nigger' or Matsuri lusting over lolis that propelled these girls into the limelight.
You and seem to be under the impression that this "illusion" you speak so highly of that draws in the audience is that of a glorified e-girlfriend, when the main draw to Hololive and vtubing as a whole was fun and funny shit and (presumably) cute girls with cute avatars having a good time.
There's also your assumption that the JPs have their kayfabe on stream 24/7, never drop it and never ever resent their audience (lol) which is a whole other retarded argument I don't even want to try dipping my toes into.
