>>68188252Its hard to explain. First of all, a butload of kids of kinda backwater areas. Second, those that are more typical internet users, tend to be extremely tribalists, in part because of the kids. Third, good luck trying to enforce rules like no talking about other livers unless prompted , or dramas, or bullshit supas. On the contrary if , lets say a rando group of people harasses a beloved vtuber I can see shit escalating beyond belief. If Coco had been irl spanish- japanese speaking the bullshit being pushed from one side would have meet at least an opposing force of equal strength and retardness, which can be very bad because at some point of that the vtuber becomes secondary to the fight itself.
Also, but you might find it funny, things considered racist on the anglosphere will fly around eaaaasy.
Then theres the monetary gains potential, which for various reasons is not in line with the amount of people.
Tldr: very loving fans that can be harmful due to extreme reactions especially from “others” and many countries within the spanish speaking world have lowerish disposable income, plus the actual european part isnt that much into vtubers oddly enough considering how much manga and anime is loved there.
