ITT: vtubers who are only in it for the money

So the fact that they aren't struggling for money is why they aren't in it at all? You might as well add the rest of EN as well and many in JP.

Literally everyone in EN is in it for the money only other than Ina and Kiara. It's why people like Fauna and Mumei, whose PLs were known to be firmly against parasocial relationships would sell out and join a vtuber idol group agency in the first place.

This isn't even remotely true and and one of the most retarded things anyone's ever said on here. You've clearly never had a job. Your statement is so retarded it purposely omits all people who do things explicitly for money (including many Holos) who aren't working for a living at all but just to collect some free money. People who are working for a living are the only ones getting paid to do something who aren't doing it for money.

I would never make food for others no matter how much money you paid me. So for me to even be capable of taking on a sandwich artist career, what would have to change is not a desire for money but a desire to make sandwiches.

Christ, imagine if PRISM's or some random Twitch group got the views and aka supas Council gets. They'd be pulling endurance streams every day if not every other and be putting in so much work they'd age 10 years in a year

>> No.25598444

>>25587792
Depends on how you look at Mumei getting closer to her chat after Christmas and especially after April Fool’s. Either she underestimated her own parasocial tendencies and is genuinely lonely and has no social life outside of Hololive, or she arbitrarily decided a third of a year into her Hololive career to lie about that and cynically manipulate her audience into giving her money, despite also yelling at people not to send blank akasupas and trying to discourage gifted memberships.

>> No.25598980

>>25598444
Or maybe she really is a bit of a spaz with a conscience and doesn't hate the attention she gets but knows she can't encourage it, lest it turn into an uncontrollable monster like all the others. I refuse to think someone who actively undercuts her own income is being a cynical piece of shit whore.

They all "refuse to have a relationship with their fans", but the truth of the matter is any regular human interaction is a relationship. You have a relationship with your grocery shop owner, a merchantile relationship. You have a relationship with your parents, a parent-sibling relationship. Any VTuber who willingly puts on a cute anime girl skin and engages with chat in a friendly way is playing a morally questionable , inherently predatorial game of toying with emotions and taking money and time away from the viewers.

>> No.25599414

>>25598980
Thing is, it seems more like she’s the one getting parasocial, while her chat remains mostly the same, except maybe being slightly more clingy before her end-of-semester break compared to her Christmas break. She’s essentially already established a fanbase that wouldn’t go nuts like some others have before opening up to them.

>> No.25599529

Eh, I don't know about that. Take a trip to /who/ sometime and you get the impression there's a lot of goslings in denial in the throes of separation anxiety.

I’ve been in /who/ since debut week, while the thread has certainly changed, you’re exaggerating a bit. The Goslings certainly aren’t in denial about it, you still have some of the old guard who are still incapable of lewding her due to the Nene effect, and then there’s newfags who weren’t around for her sparse first months.
You do have a point in that there’s a segment that absolutely would follow her down the GFE route if she went there, but wouldn’t push if she doesn’t want to. Hoomans tend to be a bit more disciplined when it comes to chat interactions. My overall point is that she’s unlikely to have a Vox-type incident, and that /who/ would just assume they were getting raided again if someone tried starting shit in the thread over something like that.

>> No.25600144

>>25586435
All of them post-Myth are in it for the money. Myth had NO reason to assume they would blow up as hard as they did and assumed they would be ID-tier at best. All of them applied for reasons other than money.
Gura, Ame and Kiara were online content creators that were looking for a new audience/platform. Mori did it on a lark and figured it would help get her music out and Ina did it because she is a huge weeb and wanted to break her own lonely routine.

>> No.25600358

>>25599871
I don't know if I entirely agree with the assertion that there's a divide between goslings, oldguard who stick around a general becoming lewder and clingier and those goshdarned newfags who just don't get it, but I may be taking very recent events into account and not seeing the forest for the trees.

Whatever the /who/ ecosystem may actually be, Mumei has been responsible almost to an endearing/irritating degree with discouraging irresponsible spending and nourishing unfulfillable expectations, so I absolutely refuse to lump her in on the greedy whore department.

It’s not a hard divide, some newfags are also Goslings, some learned the ropes from the old guard sooner than others. Some of the old guard are also Goslings, or at least got over their mental block and are capable of sexualizing the owl, and some of them went soft. It literally took until two weeks ago to get the NSO newfags to stop biting obvious bait.

I'm not a cynical person, but telling her audience not to send wasteful supers isn't anything special, if anything I would say it's an essential part of the Hololive (and Western vtubing by extension) brand.

This. The "She'll do history and strategy game streams" hopium was mixed with "She's my autistic daughter(wife)" pretty quickly after the debut already, and we had greentext stories about taking care of wheelchair-bound Mumei, or becoming friends/lovers with Mumei through shared civilization-related interests, pretty early on.

>> No.25601490

>>25600978
Fair enough. I’d point out the time she outright told chat to send fewer superchats, but that’s outside the post-Christmas timeframe I’ve been talking about. I’d say her attitude towards gifted memberships at least indicates that she prefers the intimacy of members streams over the extra money she’d make by encouraging gifting.

I kinda wish the hopium had come to full fruition and she had become the wheelchair-bound daughterwife that we went on Isekai adventures with when she turned on the stream. It would've been so comfy.
