>>27861046i kind of saw this trending this direction. with luxiem's rise, came also shoto's rise - an indie vtuber that went from 200 ccv on Twitch to 10k ccv. he legit went from leeching off the boys to being competition - and his fps skills are also no joke. add to that, that he has the best soft-boy personality on the scene, his rise in hindsight seemed inevitable.
anyway, when shxto, an indie that's made a ton of connections to other indies, started to drastically rise and also opened up a channel on bilibili (again, following luxiem) to resounding success, his best friend in bao followed suit. note: bao has been his vtuber friend ever since he was a 2view, and shoto has stated on stream that she's been mentally comforting for him many times offstream, so they're unironically tight.
tl;dr: shoto follows luxiem's success, bao follows shoto'x success, which all leads back to winnie the pooh
