>>99713238Fulgur seemed pretty in tune with his audience's interests for most of his career so this is surprisingly tone deaf.
The fact of the matter is his original model, his original character is what his fans fell in love with. His fans have tolerated his barafaggotry sensibilities up until now because they like him, but it goes without saying that most fans would prefer the original model. Women like bishieshit, men don't have to like it, but that's what launched his career. To begin with, saying that fans should only watch for his personality denies the point of vtubing to begin with. It's not just about a personality, it's about a character.
I wonder why so many western vtubers fail to grasp this and even shame people for differentiating between the character and person behind it.
