>>433208>most popular clipsThose don't really reflect the streamers. Many clips are made by coomers, so you get a shitton of dumb coomer bait. Professional vtubers (good ones) are often all around entertainers who are good conversationalists, are decent at video games, decent at singing, arts, something.
A good example is Marine, who is one of the most annoying coomer baiters, but is also genuinely good at arts and a joy to listen to talk about whatever. She's also amazingly fun when she collabs with other people. The kind of person who most everyone has a good time with.
But that doesn't translate well into youtube clips, so you get "overseas sexy guys" and "I'm horny" ad infinitum.
Most of the JP vtubers people think "how the fuck does she make so much money despite having mediocre subscribers and no clips" are simply really good entertainers in the classical sense of "sit next to someone and have a good time".
Many top EN streamers are just boring to me. I don't even hate them, I just can't begin to care and they don't seem to be good at anything in particular.
