>>1136210Hi, first time posting in the thread. Stopped by to say that this would be a crapshoot. It seems like the point is to have home grown chubas who share the relatively similar values structure of a single community the same way hololive jp, cn and en sourced primarily from nico, billi and youtube respectively.
Having vtubers with horribly conflicting personalities and values would only lead to infighting and power struggles. Vtweeters, faggots, ledditors don't exactly jive well in public, which is where the vtubing would take place. It's better for each community to build and have their own than to pickup ragtag stragglers from hololive's dumpster and try to herd bitterly territorial cats. Diversity isn't our strength. The universal value of pseudo-anonymous candid discourse is. Vtubers from other sites don't necessarily have any kinship with us, and they couldn't necessarily be trusted given their tendency towards rabid moral imperialism.
>>1138364>The best /vt/ could put together is probably a decentralized coalition of VTubers who collab and support each other. This was already tried by BANS. They were a ragtag band of controversial indies growing, evolving, collabing and eventually formalizing under a single banner. Having an informal group makes it more dynamic but also devalued as a brand, as the lack of unity or logistical planning means that the individual streamers and sub groups would be considered far more definitive from a branding perspective.
There's also the inevitable natural human tendency to self segregate into cliques, which would likely lead to a two or more tiered dynamic where you're either in the club with the big dogs or might as well not be in the alliance at all. Managing everyone's interactions properly and fairly would presumably require an independent third party like a formal agency.
>Otherwise, there's no way you can take this thing and make it legit without sacrificing anonymity.Agreed. Anonymous vtubers are a pipe dream if the goal is to generate and distribute profit. The goal should definitey be to source vtubers from 4chan and then have them be proper, legitimate vtubers who put their own spin on content creation based on their topic(s) of interest while being marketed to a wider mainstream audience.
They shouldn't be officially connected, related or beholden to the site itself. The association should be purely informal, even if it's practically an open secret that this is their back alley bar of choice and probable core demographic.
Given the grab bag of boards on this site, you basically have your pick of niches to pander to and a potential wider audience than even conventual gaming/singing vtubers. If you could find at least one good voice actor or personality from each board, that in and of itself would create a powerhouse team with broad appea and decent staying power. However, even that kind of roster would still bump into the biggest problem every agency faces: scouting, recruiting and properly vetting both staff and talent. That's the true final boss of any talent agency which can't be defeated by money alone.
Ultimately, what vt should be most worried about is funding and quality staffing before even worrying about the talent. That'd be something biz would presumably be far more adept at. Vt is only relevant to brainstorming about and critiquing the company's more public facing employees after the backstage infrastructure is already in place.
