>>56659392ok, so, for a celebration / event / anniversary thing, i don't remember what, niji creates this like gag character, to celebrate it.
this is weird as fuck right because niji and the big companies and fuck even the smaller companies don't really debut just one person especially out of nowhere
so everyone is like who the fuck is this what the fuck is this what the fuck is going on, which actually becomes kind of a party in and of itself. we're all tuning in to figure out the first part which is attracting everyone else, like who's this getting the big numbers? what is going on
there's also interesting stuff here about how the streams were just an hour it's super easy to catch the vods watching her wont take your whole day and it's something to catch when it's happening
but nevermind that, the vtuber itself, actually another niji talent because this is supposed to be a big fucking joke, is totally in on the joke and leaning into it. hard. so the character becomes this like hugely over the top ojou character who won't stop saying desuwa, which people actually get into. like this is great
which gets to the more interesting part of all of this: the spiral into madness. fastest niji to a million. vtuber record breaker. hundred thousand people streams. whoops, i guess it wasn't a joke? this is actually a real character. uh...
