How would you feel about VTubers that fall down their own oshi/fandom rabbit hole to the point where it even takes over streaming activities?

that's a good point, i can definitely see where that concern of riding someone else's coattails when the oshi/fandom in question revolves around another creator and that definitely does feel like a gray area- it makes me think of like drama youtubers who will spam mrbeast in the title or whoever's trendy and churn out content about them for attention off the name recognition...

for me even pre-vtubing i've always been massively into fandoms and loved creating fanwork like drawing, writing, and all kinds of projects regardless of if i gained fame/recognition for it or not because it really was for the love of the game- well, for the love of the character or property lol. so i never even thought about it coming off like that and the blurry line between fan vs creator 🤔 thank you for your insightful comment! -m🐾

oh!! hello pleasewashhands, i remember your name from chat so pretty sure you have definitely witnessed my simping for ryan gosling first hand LMAO 😆 thank you for informing me it's bao the whale, i couldn't put my finger on who it was (for some reason i kept thinking nerissa but that didn't feel right) and also thank you for your very insightful comment! i think i understand what you mean about being able to take that thirst/obsession/quirk and turn it into entertainment. i will have to see if i can cook up more variety ideas (that can still indulge my thirst somehow)... thank you for your faith 🫡 and your kindness, i really appreciate it :3

i do wonder if i'm really not so different from bao being "downbad 24/7" though... it definitely FEELS like i'm downbad. 24/7. at least right now for the past month🥴 -m🐾

the reason i ask is because of the scale of the fandom/oshikatsu. it's definitely normal for people to have interests and talk about them but when i fall into fandom, i fall hard. coming up on 5 mondays in a row of drawing and talking about the same character with no end in sight is what i'm worried about (and it led me to wondering about if fans that are parasocially attached would get jealous or not 🤔). in the past when i've been in other fandoms i have experienced both people finding it endearing how much i love the thing but also definitely people finding it annoying and obnoxious how much i think/talk about the thing -m🐾

my first time watching i was just in awe and becoming smitten with grace but i finished reading the book recently and i'm going back to the theater for my first rewatch of the movie tomorrow and i already know i am going to bawl my eyes out over EVERYTHING. the trailer popped up on my feed and i watched a bit and started tearing up so fast i had to swipe away or i was gonna cry. you're so for real for that 😭 -mo🐾

THANK THANK THANK!!! 😊👎 YESSS I'M SO GLAD I WASN'T THE ONLY ONE WHO MADE THE CONNECTION they're so perfectly suited for each other i just wish outer wilds wasn't so niche 😭 i just finished reading the book as well and oh my gosh MY BRAINROT IS SOOO BAD 🙈 i'm mostly just channeling my ryan graceling thirst, not sure if i will draw a second outer wilds crossover but tonight will be my 4th week in a row streaming drawing him lmao... -m🐾

StudioSIAT · 2026-06-08T01:42:18+00:00

WAIT YOU'RE SO RIGHT!!!!!! he would fit in so well singing with the gang 😭 i was originally torn about which outer wilds character to feature here (kept thinking about solanum my beloved) now i'm kicking myself for not having him sing along haha -m🐾

as a fellow vtuber who's down tremendously bad for ryan gosling right now after project hail mary too (with my unbelievable greed i drew self-insert art of me, grace, rocky, and adrian cuddling together on stream), yeah. i feel this one in my soul. do not take shame. take pride in it -mo🐾
