Go back to 2020, vtubing isn't big thing, normalfaggots such as yourself aren't in the space. The audience is near exclusively filled with 4chan hardcore weeaboo chud types. The only English vtubers are indie's and usually they're models are shitty if not they're png tubers and they have zero interest at all in idol culture, they just want to be anonymous youtubers/twitch streamers with an avatar.
Then, hololive announces holo EN. This was highly controversial with a great deal of hardcore weaboo chuds claiming this was the end of the subculture as we know it(they were right too). Soon vtubing would be filled with tattoos used good strong independent western whores who will inevitable proclaim that vtubing culture is problematic.
Then Gura shows up. She's a loli, already a off to a great start. Her model is super cute, she has a super cute voice and its obvious she has been in the weeaboo circles(le 4chan pandering), wasn't making yabs and actually took role playing as a shark girl seriously.
Yes, she was so popular that it still has a ripple effect today. She was the face of what EN vtubing could actually be. A real mirror to JP vtubing but in English.
