>>28481336The hobby is niche for people who don’t go outside much as it requires the viewer to sit inside. And the target audience isn’t someone who goes out to parties and has a vibrant social life and such. He would have to be just enough of a motivation for young men to get up and start moving, doing something with themselves other than spend long periods of time in their rooms being unproductive.
>>28480649Exactly, that’s the point. There are NO vtubers who are motivational enough for people to change in the good way. I brought up Fauna and Bae because when Fauna first spoke of exercise, I saw so many Saplings post about how they ALSO wanted to start exercising. This kind of motivation is absolutely powerful, and in some respects, I don’t think women have the power to motivate a mass amount of their followers to get up and do something. Masculinity is a fraternal order, testosterone is a compound that flows through men very differently from women, and often times it creates imbalances and harms the individual, if you’re a man, you absolutely can relate far more to another man than any woman, and if a brotuber-vtuber comes along to introduce such masculine ideals into their streams, maybe viewers could understand them. They could understand that being weak bodied and ill minded is not a productive way of living your life and that it’s important to give yourself a healthy life, and this starting point can cascade into many different positive changes.
It would just be something wonderful to see in an age of absolute despair.
