Example: The post itself, a blue haired wolf/fox/dog whateverthefuck. By itself it looks like a 14 year olds bad attempt at an OC with a dash of "Self-insert" syndrome & a punchable looking face.
Like what the fuck even is this:
Literal eye vomit, pure over-design, everything to hate about what anime did to people’s ability to discern “standards” as a concept, all of that manifested as a mascot.
And the worst part is- I don’t have to like it, people can like it. I have zero qualms with an entire group having shit taste, you ain’t my child, thus not my problem, nor my representation of anything of myself, so go crazy.
The real issue is the OVERSATURATION of countless people copying this nonsense. It’s the excess for me. So sick of seeing it, sick of seeing lazines rewarded.
VTuber designs being obnoxious garbage #1, shitty stock anime songs, dry af personas, oversaturated/ formulaic business model in which the main resource is males being basic products of the times, not a new concept, but still depressing that the main resource is their loneliness or gullible nature, lack of female attention is being exploited with a smile- yet again, as usual.
Because mind you: The target demo and main demographic aren’t the same thing. The target demo allegedly is teens & kids but the main demographic is lonely adults wanting to entertain a waifu they’ll never have, because not only is she not real but it’s a ventriloquized mascot being puppeted by some clown.
I've seen some VTwerps look like demon lords or something, horns n shit. Or harkening back to IronMouse’ obnoxious as hell design, ALL THAT just to watch videos & play games, wearing digital cosplay & thats “content”, extra as hell.
This is some shit I'd expect out of 13 year old girls, if it were children doing this, then it’s normal teenager cringe phase shit.
Vs grown ass women & men lmfao, who should be adjusted by now. Painfully unattractive generations.
POV: **Wear digital cosplay; now you matter**
Regressive.**tldr, not a fan.**
**They're not DeviantArt Fetishist levels of #Parenthoodfail, I'll give average VTubers that much, some of em ain't *THAT* bad. Though they are still annoying.**
If a Vtuber gained a following singing her ass off on decent acapella or something/or being in the %1 of competitive PVP/pro speedrunner/ or could solve advanced algebra equations on a timer for her stream/ master chess player, just having a gift or something That's different.
Or there was a VTuber meta where to be a VTuber you had to be really good at something within an avi, at that point I'd stomach the avi crap, and hop aboard just to see what's up and see them be masters at something.
This way they gatekeep the brand from being crowded; having a talent besides running your virtual mouth & being *uwu quirky* and that's the core of the "content" because schtick formula is the avi doing all the work.
Which is what this is really about, the avi being anime & thats all that atters.
**What I dislike is VTwerps being a Dollar Store version of a Content Creator**, a parody.
Appealing to the lowest to lowest or youngest common denominator, rewarded for the less than the bare minimum.
Pushed so hard by Youtube for example, yet providing so little despite doing the most for no reason, or more accurately---
**"Realtime WAIFU SIMULATOR aka average VTuber"**
Reaction videos out the ass for the avi making the same 2-3 expressions, the fuck even is this timeline anymore? Women just invent new ways to embarraass themselves.
males having easy access to female parasocial companionship without having to work for a real one, tale as old as dropping birthrates and a prevailing manhood crisis.
And its worse that these clowns look like interactive anime bimbos, some look like kids and babies.
Naturally Its the anime crowd, of course they want to watch underage mascots likenesses act like dumbasses.
Not all VTubers are female; majority are female (big shock), In contrast the majority audience are male 15-30yr, the lonely male range (big flipping shock)
# Otherwise, I can just watch anime for that same waifu simulator bullshit, at least then I'll get an equally scripted personality character with better line delivery /better voice acting/ BETTER ACTING from an actress who actually knows what the fuck she's doing.
And I've stopped doing even that for that exact reason almost 20 yrs ago. So I'm not giving some hack NPC, a grownass woman wearing digital cosplay calling herself a "VTuber", a “goddesss” (beit vtuber or fetishist loser) or whatever fatherless behavior someone’s random ass daughter is projecting this week, they’re everywhere.
I’m not paying donos or my attention for her doing her best impression of what she/they thinks is an interesting person. Which is what they’re doing, an elaborate impression of what they’re not.
Apparently this is what they gotta do to get anyone to give a shit, cause they themselves as people isn't good enough. Hell even a regular anime pfp wasn’t enough they had to 3D that shit to get anyone to give a damn lmfao.
Hence the popularity of VTubers: *Not cause of phenomenal content creation but Male devotion/ desperation, predictable proletariate behavior.*
On one hand though, I'm sure they're having fun building the brand & embodying whatever it is they think they're going for, taste be damned--- have fun you cringey snots. Cause some couples watch Vtubers, could just watch anime but whatever.
Live your illusion, even if it means not living at all.
Cause there's much worse cringe & unbridled garbage being pumped out here worth actual hate than VTubers playing video games or dropping an occasional fest or album.
where VTwerps are tolerable is when they stay in their place, in the niche, out my recommends, and out of my fucking face.
They are tolerable when caught off guard or frustrated & you can somewhat see a real authentic reaction through their stupid avi and or they shut the hell up & in reality the actual entertainment of a Vtuber space- Is really the chat ngl, no different from most streamers.
(the only Vtuber to genuinely not piss me off by virtue of being in my line of sight is sakura miko's reaction to that GTA V Lamar roasts Franklin cutscene. The avi was cringe ofc but the womans vocal reaction saying "N*99a" in a musical note was funny. Wish i could've seen her face when she said it)
**On the other hand, say what you want about Youtube Reactors & some Twitch streamers' politics, but If it's gonna be parasocial?
Do me the respect of not wearing a weeb mask on top of the already fake ass persona act and then think a fabricated backstory & tropey, cutie, kawaii, or mysterious, sensual, smug, abrasive or whatever anime cliche you adopt as a theatricality, pasted on some corny lore attached to an anime girl profile, thinking that makes it a better look.**
Or even if it’s your real personality, why the fucking virtual mask, you can’t be that hideous. And that’s coming from me, but the difference is I’m not live streaming or talking, if you’re going to push yourself that hard, why hide?
Because not showing your face is in fact inauthentic to your own audience.
As if being a mystical, shy, immortal owl huntress turned pop idol from Dimension X with a peanut allergy or whatever they think sells to an audience for some years is gonna stick----
*Or however long these goofballs choose to keep that shit up, cause some of them do "retire" & walk away.
Almost as if the gig was a joke to begin with & being a weeb mascot for teenage boys (target demo) isn't something to write home to mommy and daddy*
Way too many adults comfortable doing teenager shit nowadays, and ya’ll think cause it profits, you’re gaining something.
It's pitiful, the parasocial nature of it isn’t that dangerous but it is concerning especially with how young the demographics can be and *yet I can 100% see why kids would buy it; current gen will watch anything or anyone that doesn't know when to shut the hell up, colorful, looks anime+female = average VTuber = business model to exploit*
I get the appeal, anime appeals to the simple minded, the young, the low bar, easy to please, the NPC’s. None of that is a moral judgement btw, being ‘simple minded’ just means you can enjoy almost anything even if it’s garbage, but at the end of the day— you can enjoy something, just in greater volume.
watching a cropped avi sit there & make the same 2-3 expressions, jerk around making noises as if demonically possessed err i mean "being funny", ain't quirky, its embarrassing.
The best thing about VTwerps is the side gig attempts, I can somewhat respect some of em for tryna expand the brand, with songs, art & other side quests even if it's mid or straight whack. Still, it’s effort.
VTubers translate better in highlights but even then it's just hearing a humans telegraphed voice coming out of the **humanoid equivalent of visual vomit** trying it's best to emulate a personality.
And even if it looked like peak pixar model with realtime expressions, its still bad.
In fact that’d look creepier if it could tap into full range of expressions.
VTuber is no longer a niche for a small clan, it's an exploitation of a loneliness market (not the only one either), it fell off cause they're doing too much.
VTubers are not exact clones of each other but they are variants, all disposable, as fake as a botox; *could be worse but painfully oversaturated & infantile.*
It sucks they don’t have to be good at anything so any useless bot can just make the avi & pop off if they catch the right crowd, zero effort.
I swear there’s a grownass man with a teenage looking vampire jailbait with twintails, and dude has zero qualms with that. THATS his platform, burly man voice coming out of a little girl. Un-fucking- believable.
And random commentary channels i watch always have some vtuber in the damn videos, I can’t escape these twats, on god, lmfao.
So when Youtube shows me or insists on recommending me another stock demon chic/ green/blue haired VTard chump or some toddler looking little loli bastard and the title has
"VTUBER REACTS"
Meanwhile, people with actual talent, people I follow who can’t get a break, people who create actual content, who ARE ACTUAL CREATORS (shoutout “RobenSikk” on youtube) See when those people can’t get the kind of push VTubers get when VTubers are skill-less, worthless drones, unearned shilling.
Yeah imma get slightly agitated at that point especially when "not interested" ain't working and the videos are under "FOR YOU" tab.
HOW? I’m one of those peons who will listen to lectures while doing 3 other things. When do I EVER even imply I would watch a “VTuber“, are you serious?
Then it makes me wonder if the algorithm truly thinks anyone & I MEAN ANYONE that watches anime (even if it's like 3 times in a year) really is that basic / & or desperate.
Because while I get the appeal, I don’t get the hype.
I had turn off all google history just to get it to stop, for maybe 4 months beefore I started seeing it again.
Sick to death of looking at these people’s ass faced-mascots.
Otherwise I can ignore em as long as they stay outta my way, generously. Same with fetishists, I don’t hunt for these idiots, they end up in my face? It’s on sight.
Most of 2024 was Youtube ruining my site experience with those talentless hacks littered all over my recommends— On top of 15-30 second ads (& a few 1 hour) every 2-5 minutes/seconds, beginning, middle, middle, middle and end. It’s getting to the point where Imma just download videos I want to watch to see them in peace, and If I like it I’ll go back to the channel and like it.
Youtube needs to stop rewarding laziness; like any parasite, for VTwerps, if this schtick didn’t profit, these people wouldn’t be milking it dry like this this much.
I just as much don't want VTubers shoved down my throat any more than I would politics or religion that I didn’t ask for, dead ass.
So when I’d prefer to watch a 3 hour five precepts lecture over even 10 minutes of some VTuber mapping out why dropping birthrates is a good thing by just being a general dumbass, algorithm needs to do better, Youtube lost it’s own plot.
