>>37910990>when you say you trust these idol vtubers have they made a specific promise to you (the audience) about what activities they do privately or is it an 'unspoken agreement' thing?I trust my oshi. I also trust the people around her and people who just come up to me as weird enough to be sincere about this whole thing. Of course maybe they are all liars, but up until now that has to be proven so I'm optimistic. My oshi went through a lot and she's just an otaku weirdo like me (she tell us pretty much everything going on her life too) which makes me believe her.
>do you personally feel like you have a relationship with this/these idol vtubers and if so: what kind of relationship is it and is it reciprocated? if it is reciprocated is the relationship with you personally, the entire audience (including casual watchers) or a specific demographic of the audience (i.e. unicorns, gachis, subscribers, members or whatever)? This is a hard one. It's hard to explain. Of course I don't think this qualifies as a bf gf relationship as I can't touch her and all that. To me it's a mix between a platonic relationship and the concept of wanting to get that unattainable flower: I can't get her fully and that makes her more desirable but at the same time I have her (streams every day, reads my messages, etc).
I do believe it's reciprocated to a platonic degree too. I believe she loves her fans a lot and she has mixed feelings towards what a fan even is. In the end it's just a label, we love her and want her to be happy and she's always trying to makes us happy so she has to love us, right? Whatever the name of this kind of relationship is, I really like it. I also don't really care
about sex and think the western sexual revolution destroyed nowadays society so I'm confortable here.
>do you believe that an idol streamer's life prior to becoming an idol streamer can disqualify her as an idol in your eyes? would she be forever tainted by her past or is it possible for her to change and be accepted? would you feel more betrayed if an idol streamer had a past you disapproved of and kept it a secret or if they were open and honest about it?This actually goes against what the unicorn wants but I think the concept nowadays is more flexible. Personally I don't mind at all as long as she wasn't a turbo normalfag whore. Let's say she had a boyfriend in highschool or that she lost her virginity already before becoming an idol: life is not perfect and a lot can happen. I can't expect a hag (say korone) to be a virgin when she joined hololive when she was like 33, but I do expect she was a decent person: not riding cock carousel, not being schemer... just being a decent person within reasonable conservative values.
Keep in mind other unicorns are just
>muh non virgin = whoreI might be weird here but I am an unicorn as I don't want my oshi to have a bf and every time a faggot in the chat tells her "you should get a bf!" it makes me feel unease. I legit don't want it to happen.
>>37911714I can see your words are kind so thanks for that. I do have a very fulfilling life outside of this. I'm loved by my family, I have good friends, I have a very good degree and an amazing job, I am respected by my coworkers and a lot of people look up to me, I'm good looking (not amazing but I do look good enough to get a girl if I wanted to), multilingual, rather knowledgeable... I'm fairly ok, I'm just too much of an otaku.
