>>27858032>>27859911I have very little to add because the other anon already gave a very good breakdown so I thought I'd give a different perspective on this. Years ago I saw someone post a comment along the lines of "Fubuki is boring because she is already perfect, supporting an idol is about seeing them grow over time and she has no growing left to do". While I don't necessarily agree with premise entirely, there's a kernel of truth in it and it keeps coming back to me. She has been doing this for four years, she used to be her company's top talent and basically already achieved it all - years ago. So she kind of has nothing to prove or pretend anymore and just does what she likes to do without much of a care. She laughed at the idea of her posting a schedule on Twitter when she saw it in an old clip during her anniversary a month ago. She doesn't do much Gachikoi pandering or fishing for superchats and she tends to keep a bit of her distance with her fans but is still very warm and loving at the same time, it's pretty hard to describe, actually. It's clear that she keeps doing this job because she loves all of it, the people, the culture, the games. And if there are aspects of it that she doesn't want to do right now, she doesn't, like right now, she is not all too interested in her solo idol career and focuses more on being featured as a guest or doing unit activity. So with her, I always get the feeling that whatever she does by her own will comes "from the heart". Like, if she really really wants to play a certain game, she just does it, even if she knows the numbers will be bad. If she finds something interesting or has a funny idea or gimmick (today's destruction work, the harmonica streams, void mining etc.) she just goes ahead, and it usually lands. She's pretty flexible, has sharp wit and knows how to make interesting and fresh content at times, but of course that's not every stream, that's just a once in a while thing. She loves streaming and does plenty of plain "boring" normal streams - almost every day, sometimes even twice. So she's a bit of a free spirit and her content can be hit and miss for many. If she gets into something, she gets into it deep. I am already dreading the next time she gets into APEX because I know for sure that will eventually happen and we'll get nothing but APEX streams for a month - but that's okay, while I don't always care about the games she streams, her enthusiasm for and her enjoyment of them always makes up for it. There's also a different side of her, though, the professional one. While in her own content she likes to take it easy, she is also a really hard worker both behind the scenes and as a company representative. Many people that don't watch much of her solo content know her mostly as the MC from the official programs or sponsored streams, but that's pretty misleading because it's just one of her many facets and not really representative of what she really is like.
To conclude this already way too long post, I guess Fubuki is not for you if you want to follow someone's growth as an idol or a streamer. She doesn't always follow the latest trends and doesn't do a lot of pandering, but mostly follows her own whims and interests. This can be boring to some, but it makes her very appealing to many as well, because I know whatever she does, she does it because she herself wants to and she always shows a lot of infectious enthusiasm for the things she loves. You should definitely give her a try if you only know her from collabs or official channel content, she is quite different as a solo streamer.
