>>11077913>irrelevant to my online personaCan most vtubers really say that they really think their audience isn't interacting with them as the real person behind the character? It's one thing if you somehow maintained perfect, obvious kayfabe the whole time, but the instant you share a real life story obviously no one is going to consider you that way. You don't get to say "it's just a character" when it's clear your audience doesn't treat it as such.
Fundamentally this is no different from a streamer who typically sits in a wheelchair getting caught on camera walking. "Uhhh yeah, this image I portray is just my stream persona, like Dr Disrespect you know. Everyone knows every streamer plays a character on camera, so most people are sane and just play along. It's your fault if you thought I was really paralyzed."
