Fan made clips also compete with old vtuber format (vids with 11 minutes ave. length), virtually free and can be produced by multiple fan channels. Classic virtual youtubers, edit their own content which made video production slower. Basically all Nijisanji have to do is talk for hours and they produce enough content for clippers.
>>74646462No. Why do you think 2D is easier an entry than 3D? 3D requires hardware and space.
>>74641851This is an argument from 2016. That youtubers such as Kizuna Ai with 3D avatar, and real voice are the real virtual youtubers. The term eventually evolved when JP mainstream just grouped real vtubers with livers together. The difference eventually blurred as they start doing the format from one another (i.e. Kizuna Ai doing lives stream and games, and livers getting their 3D model/doing shorter edited videos)
