General Best and worst VTuber designs?

[AMHOLIO]

I barely know anything about VTubers, but I like looking at both the best and the worst designs. Can you spergs kindly post and sperg about what you like and dislike?

 

[Becomemysoulreaver12]

I feel like the best Vtuber designs are usually ones that have a simple harmony of color, enough detail to be distinctive, and a strong silhouette, which is for the most part just general character design philosophy.

Sakura Miko for example, its a fairly simple design in terms of what it is, but the shape of Silhouette is strong because there are multiple elements that stand out no matter the angles thanks to the clothes, and the simple adition of the ponytail on the side.
I cant really think of any design I like the most so I just used Miko as a good example of simple is for the most part the best choice.
As for bad designs I'll just post this, I don't think I have to tell you why its bad.

I quite like Amelia Watson's design, it's cute and old-fashioned while also utilitarian.

As for the worst design, I saw this on Twitter one day and couldn't believe my eyes:

(Yes, he's Christmas-themed. And yes, his name's Chris.)

Best design: My oshi

Worst design: Your oshi

 

[Piava]

One of my favorite Ami designs:

 

[Maraschino]

I'm a big fan of Nina Kosaka's design:

Shame she went with the cockroach design as Matara.

The worst design would've been whoever the fuck this loser is (whose name I just can't be bothered to remember, but was immediately thinking of):

This guy was the subhuman who teamed up with Duncancantdie (or w/e his name is) to release dox(es) of Hololive girls (because muh racism) who was accused of being a woman beater, right?

I agree with your assessment, so it sucks I have to rate it Halal because of... that.

I always liked Suntory Nomu's design. It's sleek, clean, and devoid of chinkoid gacha slop design philosophy that's common in most nu-vtuber designs

It looks straight out of a Persona 3 artbook. I love it.

Worst design goes to this woman in my opinion:

The mushroom cap goo dripping off is so gross. The hands look like she lost half her fingers. It really bothers me.

Fattubers always bother me but I dislike this one in particular

Nothing against these two as people by the way, I have no clue about their content, they might as well be wonderful human beings, just commenting on the model.

her artist, Yasuda Suzuhito, was the character designer for both of the Devil Survivor games and Digimon Cybersleuth so you're actually not that far off lol

Mio perfect blend of classical and anime aesthetics



Also really like t he hair on Polka's new year's design, the level of detail in it is great.

It became a bit of a running gag between me, and a group of my friends, to look up various tags on Twitter to see what awful vtuber design's we could find, usually tags like "#ENVtuber" or "#VtuberEN" or something along those lines.

Even made a drinking game out of repeated aspects we'd find in designs/character concepts.
Anyway, here's a genuinely terrible one just from a quick browse of "#ENVtuber" just now.


XaXa is an interesting case, I saw this nigga at some point last year commissioning fan art of himself with another weird coomer "tactical vtuber" (and I call Xaxa a "him" because his account has pronouns, and I assume any nigga who puts she/her in the bio, has a manly face trying to cover the lower half of it in selfies, and is a weird coomer, is a man.).
Even copying that coomer vtubers design with the combat shirt design Xaxa's character uses, now he's some VRChat coomer slop twitter poster.

Spoiler: weird foot fetish shit

Xaxa has a weird pantyhose / foot fetish, thats why there's these sheer pantyhose leggings the character wears btw.

as I mention, Xaxa's design is partially copied from another coomer vtuber, Whiskey Project, whose design is taken from a character named "Vesna" created by Korean guro shotacon artist, "Dutchko_"
This design is aids, as a gear autist, nothing irks me more than spats and fucking thigh holsters.


Whiskey, at least her older design.

Vesna

Yeah, you can see how copied these designs are.
Vesna, is often portrayed in extremely graphic gore/rape porn by Dutchko, Dutchko often draws "fan art" or commission work for Whiskey, by the way. He's also drawn weird gore art of Whiskey.

I'm a bit of a gear and gun and general... tactical autist? so, designs like these genuinely hurt my soul. There's so much cool shit that could be done and instead of an interesting military or militaristic design, it's just "this is my fetish be exposed to it."

A lot of the time, I find at least EN indie Vtubers all do the same fucking shit, "I'm a kitsune succubus demon goddess catgirl who is red and black and i have huge tits im also trans!" shit, it all ends up blending together

Cope harder.

If you don't like it then just block it.

Cope harder.

The design is objectively bad. Also faggy, because it's based on a character used for weird gore/shotacon "child soldier rape" porn. If you in anyway can consider Dutchko's art good, or anything based on his art as good considering this, you might be fucked in the head tbh.

Spoiler: Nothing explicit shown, just the title and tags used by Dutchko for "Vesna and Child Soldier"

If you don't like it then just block it.

It's hard to do when 90% of autistic gun artists get commed by faggots who slurp up this slop and copy it, if not commission the same gay characters outright lol. Past this, I'm not arguing with you over this nigga because this thread isn't for debating autistic shit nor is it worth the time to argue with a nigga who is going to simp for a guy who draws literal shotacon and gore porn, or people who insert their extremely blatant and downright weird fetishes publicly.

Well I'll state the obvious. Nanashi Mumei, clean and simple design. Good contrast. Well rigged, although her face looks like a mask at extreme angles. She really pops out in 3D.







Here's her 3D in motion, I'd say well rigged.

I lost will to watch vtubers after she announced graduation. It was coming, but still. I can't be bothered anymore. Cherish your Oshi before she's gone.
And now her lost twin sister is gone as well.

Edit. Fixed my brainfart.

From what I've seen of this person's internet antics it makes sense that they choose a few varieties of deformed cretin as a streaming avatar.

Sorry to the HoloEN enjoyers. Eyesore. Sword and shield look retarded.
