>>62514356>instant repulsion/hateIf it's genuine long term fans and comes from a place of jealousy it's never instant and usually comes with a lot of bargaining/schizoing which is ugly to watch happen but understandable considering the type of people who watch vtubers, see Amelia and Kronii situations.
A lot of it you shouldn't take that seriously however because there are plenty of people who either don't watch the vtuber in question but live for the drama who pretend to be outraged/hurt the second they get an opportunity.
However there is value in gatekeeping hololive from becoming niji/twitch indie circle tier, even if you don't get as attached as the "unicorns" do and like to see yourself as above all the possessiveness anyone who is a fan of holo should appreciate this is the place for cute girls doing things with other cute girls primarily and the spergs do a valuable service in keeping most of the talents doing that kind of content even if just to avoid drama, if there was no pushback on tempus collabs holoEN would be unrecognizable today and if the Japs didn't pushback on HLZNTL there would probably be even more eceleb bullshit happening on the JP side.
"unicorns" are the white blood cells of the hobby.
