>>14283459>The biggest (and most obnoxious) male youtubers and twitch streamers all fall into this category.The difference being the level of freedom. Young men/boys want a friend who will do some crazy stuff, look at all the stuff male streamers say, do and get away with it. While Niji doesn't have holo levels of restrictions it certainly has more than your random guy who accidentally blew up. Why would this market care about some faggy looking anime dude, when there is a twitch ecosystem of big male streamers. Who can talk about drama, meet up irl, play whatever they want whenever and straight up just stream other people's videos and call it react content. They don't need to worry about any oh my company doesn't like your company, they can rock up on any stream if the other streamer lets them.
Vtubers blew up cause no matter how much anyone pretends it is some level of GFE. One that people tell themselves isn't really the same as a ethot cause reasons. That's a niche. Corporate Male vtubers can't compete at that, and aren't on an even footing with normal male streamers. So it is highly dependent on snagging absolute gems who aren't harmed by the restrictions.
