The real issue is collabing with people their age, more so when they are in the same line of job. Under those conditions they are prone to get along: they understand each other’s professional struggles and do the same thing for a living. It wouldn’t be surprising for said people to hang out, and to eventually develop feelings for each other.
Unicorns, the real thing, it’s not the basic as fuck concept you often see being spread here: “male collabs wrong and I don’t care about what she does off screen”. That’s just not liking male collabs, not being a unicorn.
In Japan there are many unicorn power levels, the most extreme case would be the one who demands the idol to be a virgin, but the general idea is “I don’t want my idol to have a bf”. It’s really only that for most unicorns. The whole idea of “if the character doesn’t have a bf I’m cool” doesn’t really apply to unicorns or even gachikoi. If that were the case the girls would collab with any male or talk about how they hang around with male friends openly and won’t lose unicorns and gachikoi since that’s of screen and the character can be whatever. There’s really no character separation for that. Pekora’s fans expect her to be like she is, the animated funny bunny girl, but at the same time they expect her to be single and that has nothing to do directly with not showing other males on stream.
