Have you looked at an EN Vtuber's chat recently? Cause I can tell you that mushbrains all doing the same thing as each other are pretty freaking common.....The problem then is that vtubing has a serious lack of such mushbrained consumers, so a much larger part of the EN fanbase is made up of people who hate conformity.
I think a major point, as you mentioned, is that the ones that got attached during the pandemic and didn't leave just stuck with the corpos they were following, so that's why there's a huge base there. For example, it's a pretty well known detail that a huge chunk of Gura's watchers ONLY watch Gura. They show up for Gura and then leave when Gura isn't streaming.Nah, the big players are still stupidly dominant, I think the big thing here is what negzana said: Vtubing is not mainstream in the west. In japan they have shitloads of normies that watch chuubas, because it's a socially acceptable thing, but here in kaigai-land it was mostly just some passing fad, the only people who remained are weebs who actually like chuubas, so very few normies remain.
Normies are what fuels big corpos, they really don't care to search for new, different shit to watch. The problem then is that vtubing has a serious lack of such mushbrained consumers, so a much larger part of the EN fanbase is made up of people who hate conformity.
Tl;dr: It's not that the big corpos are slipping/worse off, simply that a lot of the mindless consumers left when the pandemic ended.

I immediately have the image of the nice substitute that kids would bully in my headCan you imagine Uruka as a teacher?
The majority of people following Pippa, don't know most of the lore. She does attract a good chunk of people who only watch her and they have 0 knowledge of Vtubers.View attachment 45190
I wonder what compels someone that doesn't even know the most basic of Pippa lore to make AI covers.
I couldn't find the original post where Axel talks about meeting this cosplayer, but she uploaded a video where she talks about it. He's her oshi... thats sweet.
Definitely, the teacher that gets bullied by the 6th graders.
My favorite thing about this is their team name is "Is this Overwatch?" and they went on to win third match of the custom lol.
Don't think it's Pippa, she replied to the tweet plus she hasn't cancelled tonight's stream.Matsuri is cute but her face looks a bit as if she had downs.
Hope its not the yabbit. Or if it is (which is always great to have them off collab) I hope it's not serious.
You can get more on special sites.Damn thats a good underboob and the cosplay is really nice too.

Okay so while thinking about the russian vtuber scene, I decided to check the vtuber tag on twitch.
results:
3 watch "Pregnant in 16" trash show about dumb hoes that got pregnant in 16 and their dumb hoe parents that allowed for that to happen,
3 play league
I got very dissapointed

Apparently her OF has already been cataloged by the usual site. She has videos of doing exactly what you'd expect.You can get more on special sites.
I bet is Megumi/TeyraShe might be referring to one of the would-be new AkioAIR members
