>>107149155Anon, let's both take a step back and remind ourselves that there are multiple parties at play here. You've seen a good example, but you forgot bad examples exist too in which the female side got burned pretty badly.
Do you remember Ema during both Madtown? The first time she tried to flirt a lot during beta (including to Kamito) she got insane backlash if there was no Roberu there to play tsukkomi it'd have been uglier, and then it did become uglier during Madtown proper once those antis that latched onto her had another excuse to flame her.
Then there's Mea who's been doing herflirt monster stuff for years yet the moment she's in contact with that normie esport group that have all the noombers she's started to get death threats.
The fact of the matter is most of the time the male streamer gets all the accolades from "muh harem protag" while the female side gets all the flak. I am almost certain Astel didn't want that once he saw his jubutsu shtick got out of hand.
Anyway, don't take what Roberu's doing as the industry standard. It works because he's Roberu (and his fans are older and not numerous enough). I'd even argue your "Evil Roberu" moniker doesn't even work here because in Oreapo the Roberu isn't Kamito, it's Hinano.
