>>12046608A lot of people around here who hopped on the vtuber train are /pol/tards who found their trad waifu ideals in hololive and jp vtubers who unironically do the seiso act, often imposed by the companies that employ them and the idol culture that served as a footprint for jp vtubing. It's worth to mention that a lot of indie jp vtubers aren't like that at all. It's mainly in the companies. But there are also platform issues that cause it - youtube restricts your range dramatically if your content isn't child friendly, and we're talking about very young children. And most jp people aren't familiar with twitch - they use youtube for watching streams, forcing jp streamers to choose their platform and obey their rules.
Western vtubers don't have those limitations and formed their culture differently. Not many trad waifus here. I doubt even that nun vtuber, Sister Abigail, would be considered one by /pol/tards. There isn't really that much animosity towards Vshojo other than this place, but the hate they get in here is for two reasons. First, because they're the main representative of western vtubing, which is why there is so much focus on them. Second, because almost all of their talents are examples of vtubers that wouldn't make a cut for Hololive for different reasons. Mel because CB and her past, Zen because tts and possibly nonbinary, Hime because irl persona, boyfriend and schedule issues, Ironmouse because too much heavy real stuff comes with her which is a liability for a company, Vei because she enjoys being no joke promiscuous and doesn't fuck around with being nice to her chat (also, imagine being her manager), Nyanners because irl persona and a loud negative fanbase (like, didn't Coco left for similar reason?)
