Hello liggermen I hope all is well. It's that time of the month where we look at the total CCV of the previous month for our top 20. Lets start with the controversial choice I have made towards a major disqualification: I have made the decision to remove Onigiri from consideration from the rankings for the foreseeable future. When looking to see what her various streams were, I looked back for the last 60 days and realized that in that 2 month period she has only vtubed 5 times total out of 36 streams. Not hating on her, it's her content and her switching to more IRL styled content is working for her specific, however I will no longer track her numbers for this specific reason until I see evidence she is Vtubing a significant portion of the time going forward. With all that said, lets get to the numbers.
Numbers for March 2024:
1. Dokibird (9,620 ccv, month to month NA)
2. Neuro-sama (8,376 ccv, 14% down)
3. Filian (6,386 ccv, no change month to month)
4. Vei (5,780 ccv, down 16%)
5. Shylily (4,440 ccv, down 29%)
6. Shxtou (4,231 cvv, up 15%)
7: Anny (4,028 ccv, up 9%)
8: Numi (3,896 ccv, up 7%)
9: Sinder (3,490 ccv, up 17%)
10: Silvervale (3,158 ccv, up 9%)
11: Nyanners (2,998 ccv, up 7%)
12: Buffpup (2,576 ccv, down 2%)
13: Cottontail (2,297 ccv, down 8%)
14: Saruei (2,179 ccv, up 12%)
15: Bao (2,117 ccv, down 30%)
16: Limes (2,114 ccv, up 6%)
17: Yuzu (2,072 ccv, down 9%)
18: OlivaMonroe (1,943 ccv, up 43%)
19: Vienna (1,884 ccv, up 27%)
20: LucyPyre (1,867 ccv, up 6%)
Notes:
>Neuro, Shylily, and Bao all have taken significant numbers hits month to month, however in each case there was an event stream associated with the previous month, so this is a likely a correction back to norm for these three.
>For the third month in a row Shotou has broken 4k and has had positive viewership growth, with his low being about 3.5k ccv back in December. My current guess with the timing of everything is that with many people becoming disillusioned with Nijisanji vtubers, many people who were lapsed shotou fans that ran to luxiem are currently moving back to him. I doubt he'll ever see his 10k monthly CCV days back, but it's safe to assume he'll probably live comfortably in this 4-5k ccv threshold.
>Quinn Benet Debuted as an Indie and despite hitting a 7k debut stream he is now down to 1,394 ccv for the month and trending downward, having barely broken 1k the last few streams. He looks like he will be probably living in 500 CCV town, which is admittedly good for a male vtuber, but not anywhere near shotou/Aethel numbers.
>The major mover up the charts this month is Olivia Monroe, hitting 1,943 CCV for the month and a whopping 43% viewership increase (a total of 586 ccv from month to month). This has been a big topic of conversation as to the meteoric rise of Oli, and I have taken a look into the numbers as a vocal minority seem to believe she was botting. Looking at the peak stream views, she hits her maximum viewership for stream somewhere around the 45-1 hour mark, which for vtubers of the 2K+ threshold is incredibly common: you hit peak viewership within an hour or so and fluctuate depending on raids. Typically when we see an abnormal viewership situation that leads to suspicion of botting, the botter hits their peak viewership threshold within 5-10 minutes with basically no fluctuation whatosever. She was also hitting a little bit under her usual numbers when streaming outside of her timeslot, which if someone was a big enough numbersfag to bot, they would just bot ALL their streams, not just some of them. Additionally, looking at Oli's current sub numbers, they are more or less in line with contemporaries such as Bao and Juniper. Digging into all of this I have found a potential reason as to why Olivia has suddenly found viewers though: Olivia has always streamed head-to-head timeslot wise against Girl_DM, who spent the majority of this month on vacation. They have both also marketed themselves as pg-13 streamers, making them appealing choices to similar demographics, so despite polar opposite personalities, they aimed for the same market share. With DM constantly taking time off, that viewership share that would normally be watching DM moved elsewhere. On top of that several Euro streamers who often overlapped Oli have graduated, making a perfect storm of free viewership in an open timeslot looking for a place to go, and by the looks of it, Oli was the beneficiary.
>Grimmi was up notably 23% from last month at 1,167 ccv, a 225 ccv increase. Most of the community outside of the top 20 were more or less at their current averages for the last few months.
That's all I have for you guys this month, thank you for reading and I'll see you next time.
