speaking of vtuber hustling, have the ranking for September:
after having had her worst month in forever Lulu actually has come back with her best month of all time, seems all her stuff is at least paying off CCVwise and is back to being a 3view which she was not in a long while
while gaining Quetzu is once again second, making me eat my words for the second month in a row about the top being secure for her, still a 3view and just barely off Lulu
Zuzu also had the best month of all time and hit 3view for the first time ever, however in her case it was due to some special event so she probably will not be able to hold this for the future, but it still ncie seeing her event had success and things are looking good
Ame finally got a 3DIO so her ASMR is now powered up and actually interesting to people listening to ASMR and thus she is back in the top 10, she is decent but could still need a bit work on her triggers but who knows where she goes with this
then the drop down from those 4 is actually pretty steep, we never had this much of a powergap at the top before
fifth is a dude named Kloo that seems to have found some niche top down battle royale game called Eternal Return where he has gotten quite some numbers, a good chunk of that seems raid based but they seem to come in consistent enough to really have pushed him up, so good on him for having found a niche
Bell Yaga also managed to stream in time for her monthly "i am still alive" stream to stay in the ranking, albeit the viewership each time keeps dwindling hard and is like half at this point of when she was more active
Ruri stays like a rock in her viewership, not much to say here
Elise stays in the top 10 as eight and managed to hold the CCV she had last month where she got the birthday boost, showing that she can still climb further, the fact Faelie is currently mostly gone and the two share many viewers is helping there too
and the last places are actually a 4-way tie of Manon, Mia, Moka and Hotaka Tae
Manon has managed to gain a bit of momentum again tho current life affairs might make it hard to keep steady
Moka managed to get a top 10 spot in her last month, which i think is a nice farewell gift from her active streaming
Hotaka Tae has been an IRIAM streamer that has been slowly but surely growing and for the first time managed to beat out Myu, tho Myu also of course had issues with her health and thus unable to stream much, nonetheless a good sign for Hotaka
for Mia however, this is actually pretty bad, her consistent absences really have begun to hurt her badly and thrown her down all the way back to the start of the year CCVwise, she used to be much higher and on an upside trend so this really hurts to see
outside of the top 10 there hasn't been much of note really, the IRIAM pirate Gun D. Drake had a good month due to a big raid but otherwise this month had been more of a downward trend, for IRIAM more than for ex-Anilive, most likely since more and more toxic behavior is coming out by streamers on the platform
