>Got into V-tubers with HoloEN, had previously only seen bits of Kizuna Ai and Kaguya Luna before but language barrier was too much of a filter
>Became super invested in the EN girls, day 1 membered all of them at the second to highest tier available. Gura was easily my favorite but I enjoyed them all for their unique qualities.
>Would constantly talk about their streams with my Chair Force buddies online, also posted a ton in global threads back when they were still on /jp/
>Up until around the time of the JP Gen 5 Among Us collab I literally did not miss a single stream from any of them since I was unemployed and would literally schedule my sleep hours to accommodate Kiara and Mori who streamed mainly during Japanese hours.
>I finally choose to skip a stream (one of Kiara's JPRG streams) since they go so long but I resolve to still watch all her collabs and non-JRPG streams. Also downgrade my membership to basic tier for everyone but Gura
>Start skipping more streams, next to go are some of Ina's weekly gesture draws and Ame's Mario streams.
>About two weeks later I stop watching all of Kiara's non-collab streams after getting frustrated with their length. Even start skipping some of Mori's streams. I finally un-member Kiara and Ina.
>My interest starts to fade increasingly fast. None of my friends even watch HoloEN anymore and the global threads become increasingly hostile and tribalist.
>Even skipped the last two parts of Gura's Luigi's mansion playthrough.
You can kind of guess how it escalates from here. I've un-membered from everyone except Gura now and don't even watch all of her streams anymore. I wish I could go back to debut month when V-tubers seemed like the coolest thing in the world to me.
