General Discussion for Virtual Youtubers / Vtubers / Chuubas - it's okay to be a simp for 2D, just don't thirstpost.

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.
I stumbled upon some interesting information when I was browsing the /#/ thread this morning. In the year 2022, the top 5 most watched/popular Vtubers is Hololive are:
1. Pekora
2. Marine
3. Miko
4. Subaru
5. Suisei
Some key takeaways:
- Pekora is in an entire league of her own when it comes to live viewership, conisistently averaging over 30K viewers every stream. She rules Hololive with an iron fist.
- While already popular, Marine's recent 3D live and release of the super popular MV "I'm Your Treasure Box" made her viewership and subscriber count skyrocket. She was the first HoloJp member to reach 2 million subscribers as well.
- Miko and Subaru are the very definition of consistency, pulling an easy 20K+ viewers almost every stream no matter what they're doing.
- Suisei is a rare occurence where an OG vtuber(3rd oldest in Hololive behind Sora and Roboco) manages to show consistent year-over-year growth, with 2022 being her best year yet. Even though she streams less than her contemporaries, her music helps her to stay relevant.
- Gura was 6th for anyone wondering.
- HoloMyth has a ridiculous amount of dead subs.
- Korone has shown year-over-year decline.

Thoughts? Anything interesting you guys have noticed about Vtuber popularity in 2022? Please chime in I'm super bored at work.

Quite surprised Suisei beat Gura since I'm pretty sure she averages 15k+ every time she streams while Gura averages 25k+ (im eyeballing this since this is where usually i see her numbers everytime her stream appears on my recommended. Could be more or less)
Then again, Gura hasn't been streaming that much iirc

Im not suprised about subaru that has made an effort to learn english and trying to make it a good stream for overseas fans as possible.

Wonder why, i know she has been taking breaks but her streams are very solid and she is the darling streamer of Sega, (opinion not biased because i am a koronesuki since 2 years ago)

There is a reason she and Miko are on the top 10 of most watched streamers worldwide almost beating Pokeymane, sadly they cant still beat Amouranth for obvious reasons, curious info: Pekora is aware of Amouranth and she has watched her streams but said she can't do the same type of content as her, people that know Amouranth is probably aware of what she does

Girl has hardcore simps on the industry, producers and even actual Idols promote her without any shame on TV even the normies are aware of her

Edit: for context Inoue one of her simps and producers of bangers with her has told that several people very high on the industry are aware of her and they actually watch Hololive streams

Vesper, in his latest zatsudan, joked that he was "28 season 14". If we assume that he said 28, because that is the character's stated age, and the 14 is not completely random...

That would put his birth year around 1981, which might or might not fit his statement from the same stream that he was a kid when the original Doom was a thing. The game released in 1993, so he would have been around twelve or thirteen then. I suppose it boils down to whether "kid" entails "teenager" or not in Vesper's dictionary.

His previous life, meanwhile, claimed last year to be 35. Which would lead to a potential birth year of 1986 and having been seven when Doom released. Now, it's possible that his contact with Doom was in later years or through a relative or the relative of a friend or such, and there's likely plenty of precedent for young kids having played Doom well before they should have, but...

We've got contradicting ages and the range from ~36 to ~41 isn't exactly huge, especially since he seems to have come into contact with modern information technology as a young child in an early adopter household/environment, but maybe he'll mention some other things in the future that allow us to narrow things down further.

Might depend on whether one or two seasons air per year. 28 + 7 = 35.

Love seeing Kiara playing Overwatch with Ame's instruction. Even though I hate Overwatch. Maybe one day the two of them can duo some fps games. Maybe even do Halo co-op since Ame attempting to do that with Mori didn't go anywhere.

Good luck with Halo co-op, because unless you live in the same house, the campaigns are borderline unplayable due to the input lag.

I was able to play with a Brit with no lag issue from the west coast, but yeah, I've had that problem with other countries.
 
I'm actually curious about how Fubuki's MMO streams works. We all know how it goes for EN if they try. We kind of saw a glimpse when Kiara played WoW, but here we have Fubuki playing non starting area group content:

Is she playing with randoms? viewers? Can she just play the game normally w/o people following her around? Are JP viewers just a different breed?

Moona, Bae and IRyS confirmed they'll be testing their big brains for Gura.

Didn't they lose permissions to Halo after Calli and Ame played? Not that Calli would have continued.

If she's just running trials or instanced content she can just sit in her little inn room and nobody can get to her and clog up the screen while she's waiting for the queue to pop. SE also cracked down on people fucking with streamers after the Asmongoloid bullshit, so that might help, seeing as Japs get an erection whenever they see a list of rules to follow.

Also the least cursed UI layout I've seen from a vtuber playing FFXIV so far.

This is the Tsukuyomi fight which you queue into. People can certainly time their queues to try and get into the same fight as her but for the most part you can't grief on someone's stream without risking getting perma-banned in FFXIV so it's probably fine, and if you're a high enough level to be fighting Tsukuyomi you probably aren't using a throwaway account just to piss off a V-Tuber.
