Does anyone else feel like the bubble is bursting? Big names are graduating and going on hiatus, small companies and indies are graduating and going on hiatus. Every day a new vtuber debuts and another one graduates. The market is completely oversaturated. Can this business keep going?

Its been oversaturated and honestly needs cleaned up little. Hopefully only the most talented ones will remain. though I know we will lose some good ones (coco) along the way

Anon tell me one of the big vtubers from 2 years ago that are still big now, kizuna ai is the only one and that's because she became more of a celebrity than a vtuber. The scene is constantly changing, vtubers will continue to graduate and new ones will take their spot

It's not really a question of saturation. Even under saturation, the medium is somewhat immune to completely stagnating because it's so tied to technology advancing, and any leg up that someone can get to differentiate themselves will give them an immediate advantage that will likely proliferate (e.g. theartgun stuff).
If the question is whether it's a fad that will die out, I don't see any reason why the answer would be yes. If for no other reason than the fact that, except for the cost barrier to entry being higher, it's easier than streaming with a face cam. As long as weebs exist and as long as streaming exists, there is no reason why vtubers would not exist. It is literally a new paradigm.

Aqua? Mito? Kuzuha? Many others? Your point would be somewhat valid if you were talking about 4 years ago, not 2. Have you anons tried to lurk a bit more before posting?

I don't think making a live2d / live3d and doing streams will go away, especially as a gimmick or hobby.

But I don't think the engagement will stay at levels that are sustainable for the number of companies to actually break even as "Idol companies", as opposed to just people on youtube / twitch scraping together pocket-change.

OP is a faggot, but they're also kind of right. Hololive is the big dog (and even they have talents that struggle to breakout), and Nijisanji is constantly doing catch-up.
Vshojo does alright, but besides being kind of a twitch bubble to begin with, they specifically avoided most of the idol culture. They're independent channels under a common banner.

Besides those 3, the viewership is lower than some webcams.

Females stream games until they lose relevance. Then they move on to make money in onlyfans. Amouranth and Alinity are making millions now fingerbanging and sucking dildos for tips. Vtubers will just go the projekt melody route.

Coco is done with Cover BS about china and Haachama is doing University.

the rest is the usual late small company into the fray. just cause the bubble burst doesnt mean it all burns down.

You can thank retarded amerimutt woman for over saturating the market and companies like cover for running their talent into the ground with workload.

Something becomes a fad for normies and fades away after a few months? What a shocker.

Vtubers are fine dude, if anything it's better this way, the unicorns and trendgoppers should leave soon and we can just enjoy less pandering content

It's not the bubble bursting, it's just the natural evolution of a cultural thing. Like modern rock/pop music in the mid 20th century was dominated by a small number of bands like the Beatles, Stones, and Beach Boys and over time they waned, and the industry became more fractured to a point where there's infinitely many styles of music but very little of it has breakout popularity where anyone outside of a small niche knows about it. Same with PC games, in the late 90s virtually everyone with a gaming rig was playing some form of Quake for a period of like 4 years, and now you get one or two high profile games a year that last a month or two of sustained interest. Cultural industries don't stay monolithic with one or two dominant players, over time things change and they spread out fractally. Streaming with motion capture avatars is always going to be a thing, but the small community of super popular vtubers is going to be a thing of the past, as more and more people do it and more and more niche ones come online, just as happened with regular streaming.

EN will die (holo especially) cause they are boring and they don't care about idol culture. JP/overseas viewers have insane gachikois and deep wallets.
