The easy answer would be just to you know not do GFE.
Kizuna AI didn't start out being all "haha you wanna fuck me chat". And none of that "Oh its real until I get uncomfortable" crap that you see with ethots either. It is a symptom of women, and men, taking advantage of a market in a negative way.
And sure, GFE consumers are marks. But GFE streaming should not be encouraged. I may laugh at someone falling prey for an easy scam, but that doesn't mean that I'm gonna let the scammer slide either.
Plus this invasion of GFE streamers, coomerbait streamers has also led to unironic e-prostitution (and RL protistution) in this sector. When it doesn't need any of it. The fact that it has taken off like it has, well then both sides have to deal with the consequences. As the Yuko situation oh it might have seemed big, but like the dumplings one, that shit is forgotten and only known by such a small subset of smarks.
Good luck with that one. This site (rightfully) shits on coomers, but the internet was literally funded by and founded by pervert degenerates. We can proselytize about how it's ruining the industry, corrupting the youth, and whatnot; but we can't get away from it. It may well be in our DNA at this point, given that some form of this debate has existed for the past thousand years at least. I'm sure people in early modern China were angry when
Gējì turned to prostitution: rightfully so, perhaps, but it didn't stop the social trend. People in Europe were pissed when Renaissance art started moving away from Christian ideals. Do any of us here give a fuck about the degeneration of European classical art at this point? I'm sure the average Renaissance art critic would LOVE v-tubing models and certainly wouldn't report us to the Pope (or Henry the 8th, for the Anglicans in here).
My point being. GFE will continue to exist because sexualized content is something most people like, and have liked for a long time. Same with coomerbait, same with Fantia NSFW, etc. If you don't like it, support the ones who don't do it: but GFE content isn't invading anything. It's always been around in some form.
Holo has one distinct advantage over Niji in that regards: Idol autism. Only Holo has the equipment, experience, manpower and brand recognition to help you realize your virtual idol dreams. Those who apply to Holo knows they're in it for the long run as it is a guarantee that they will help you however they can so if you're not cut out for that (ahem, Magni and Vesper, ahem) then you're just wasting your opportunity in joining them.
I would not be surprised if Anycolor would fold in the future because their talents have gotten what they want with them. They really need to think of a way to keep their talents because those who left them are doing much better (Selen, Pomu and Chihiro). Like I said before, if Riku doesn't do something this year his company will slowly collapse.
No matter what happens to Anycolor at this point, their days of competing with Holo are over, and IMO it's almost entirely because of the idol autism advantage. The stage performances are not cheap, and there are a ton of other investments that go along with them (namely, music releases and 3D). Holo is the only corpo that has proven that they will invest a ton of money into their performers and WON'T pull the rug out from under them. That's valuable even for the v-tubers who are more invested in the streaming side of things, and it's something Niji's business model doesn't accept.
Ethyria's 3D debut dates are announced
Wow, fucking amazing they managed to pull it off in a couple months after stocks dropping lit a fucking fire under their asses. How long was Nina waiting for her music releases again, much less a 3D model? Oh but hey, someone lit a fire under JP's ass and suddenly: WOW MAGIC 3D I'M SO HAPPY GUIZ. I bet there's going to be a zuttomo bit for "Ethyria's" 3d, just so we can forget that the gen is technically missing someone!
Niji is retarded. Fuckers.
