>>32475913It's like about layers or boundaries. Sorry for the long post.
So for example, some chuubas focused on ASMR do somewhat intimate GFE-like ASMR streams, but that's it. The GFE part is limited exclusively to these specific streams, all the audience understand this and no one expect them to act like that outside of that streams.
Most corpos chuubas what they do is give very light GFE like breadcrumbs but it is understood to be just fanservice, and most of the time they just have a normal relation with their fans.
A few others may be more consistent in this but they also make clear the separation between this performance layer and their own private life.
So they may take often breaks of a few days (not talking about rest days, i'm talking about about going on a week holidays for unexplained reasons) or maybe they get some involved in other aspects of her work (meetings, sponsors, collabs, singing, dancing and so on...) that they may not give life signs for some days.
So it's very clear that you as a fan are below all of this and the GFE is limited to whenever she has nothing better to do.
I'm not saying this is bad, i'm not insinuating that they don't like their fans (in fact, i suspect most of them like their fanbase as they are what gives them an easy dream job and usually are yes-men to everything they do) but that's how it is.
Anyways, what happens in my eyes with Mike is that she doesn't have layers. Everytime i went looking for some boundaries, some more personal account in which she drops the "kayfabe", some off-hand comment mentioning that fans aren't important to her i couldn't find it.
To add more things: She burned her dream career over the anxieties of her fans possibly feeling betrayed, her most personal private account is directed to share her thoughts and feelings about many things to her fans, she vents about her life on membership twitcasts,
she has changed her perspective or behaviour in life because she doesn't want anyone to feel left alone even schizo fans, she has mentioned loving her fanbase(s) or us being her saving grace (the reason she's still alive) very often.
And not to mention the wild rabbit hole hunt she sends her fans on to find any kind of any messages she leaves in her many accounts. It's like she rewards to you to be as hooked and dedicated on her as she is on you; the lower you go, the more explicit expressions of love for her fans you find from her (among her issues and insecurities) like, if anything, she's holding back when she's Nazuna.
The summary overrall is that there is no mask-off moment with her ever, you can only find a deep bond with her gachikois built over time along many highs and lows.
Many can say the words and act the part but there was a moment after following her for a few months when i realized that when she says "i love you" she genuinely loves you and, of course, she wants you to love her as well.
