@buenasmochi Breathe 😭 I can't draw either wait, I can, that's my job. Tell me what you need. Character? Reference sheet? Something else? I'm curious now!
I really need to post more singing content, I stopped singing and miss it so much but I get so embarrassed. Like when your audience is primarily gamers and don't listen to musicals...wtf do you do?!
Today marks my official 3 months of streaming. I've never been so happy and never thought I would get this far. I'm super grateful for my community 💜✨#vtuber#vtuberuprising#smallstreamer
【Are there any ENVtubers out there?】
I often miss streams, so
if there are any VTubers you think I should add to my list, please give me a ❤!

I became a vtuber/content creator because I wanted to be a cute anime girl ever since I was a kid. I grew up watching anime and it always stayed with me. It felt like an escape when life was difficult to navigate, and it gave me comfort during times where I felt disconnected.
I had a few friends who watched anime with me, but none of them were really into cosplay or roleplay, so I spent most of my time browsing forums or watching AMVs. Unfortunately we all grew apart. And I really missed that sense of connection.
That’s honestly one of the biggest reasons I started this journey. I wanted to find people who could talk about anime, games, movies, or even just random everyday things. I want to talk and laugh with them!
And honestly, the privacy of vtubing was an important part for me. I feel free behind an avatar. It lets me express myself creatively. It's like I'm bringing to life the person I always imagined as a kid 💜✨

Vtubers or Content Creators, why did you guys decide to vtube or make content to begin with? ❓
For me... I always wanted to make videos and show my love and passion for games ever since the young days of Youtube when I was 14. (Hi I am almost 33 now ;-;!) I really loved the old YouTube days of Let's Play videos and funny little skits!
When I was young, I was bullied a lot and made fun of for being a woman who loved anime and video games. So coming home from school to watch a Let's Play video or someone doing funny little skits and making AMV's was something that brightened up my mood!
I always thought it could be fun to do the same things, but with my own ways of expressing and being silly myself, but I wasn't allowed to back then. So when I got older and moved in with a friend, I decided, why not try it now? I been streaming for almost 4 years now, and I know I started very late, but I am happy I did! I met a lot of cool people and found a great way to express myself and have a good time while also (I hope), making others happy, smile, and laugh during times where they may need it themselves!
Anime and Games are a big part of myself that I enjoy expressing through vtubing! So I hope to continue to do this as long as I am alive and able to ^^! Not only that, but since I deal with some physical issues in rl and mental health stuff the prevents me from working in rl this was something I could do and handle without too many flare-ups! I am very grateful to be able to do this while also making a little bit to help me live ^^! 💖

Well said. We’re all trying to stay afloat while balancing work, responsibilities, and life in general. I’d honestly LOVE for this to become a full-time thing someday so I can pair it with my current career. It would mean more opportunities and a stronger safety net for my family. Patience is key.

May I have your attention please? May I have your attention please?
Will a Vtuber with a job please stand up?
And no, I don't mean you vtube as a job, I mean someone like me, who lives paycheck to paycheck, who prays for the sweet release of death on the daily.
Listen, I've seen many Vtubers post advice for growing. 3 shorts a day, streaming every day, constant content and networking.
Well, that's all fine and dandy, for all you young and unemployed folk.
Cause while they can grind every day, making their dreams a reality, we're at work, trying not to think about blowing our own head off. Or the head of anyone who tried to stop us.
Y'all heard of the Male Vtuber Debuff.
But let me introduce you all to the Worker Debuff (TM).
For us, who don't have the time to do all that crazy stuff, growing can be hard. It can feel impossible. Especially if you see this as more than a hobby.
Sure, maybe you can squeeze in a 2-3 hour stream, maybe a short here or there. But you feel yourself being left in the dust, especially when you watch a newbie skyrocket past you when you've been at this for years.
So I'm going to give you all some advice tailored to you, as someone who understands.
Be aware of your market. As a jaded worker, you're likely to have different experiences, moods and talking points from someone younger or someone unemployed. For example, I talk about work, day to day adult life, and I drag in all those who feel the same.
Stop marketing to the oversaturated vtuber fan market, odds are they won't find you relatable anyways. Not the hardcore ones. Start marketing to likeminded folk, who understand, who get it, who won't mind if you go a few weeks without streaming because they know how it fucking is.
Secondly, only create when you want to create. Nothing kills your channel more than forcing yourself because you feel left behind. Pump those breaks and only conjure when you feel the cauldron bubbling.
Thirdly, for the love of all that is holy, spare your sanity and don't sacrifice things for streaming. If you have things you gotta do, do them. Then, when you're good and ready, sit down and turn that mic on. Even if you can only stream for an hour, that's better than streaming for 3 with the constant nagging of ignoring responsibilities.
And finally, to end all of this.
Don't compare yourself to the other Vtubers. You're playing an entirely different sport. They're playing Dodgeball, while you're playing Golf.
They can work fast, work hard and keep things going.
You have to be patient, methodical, but eventually you'll get that birdie.
Focus on your goals, on your journey, and remember, ya ain't alone in this particular struggle.
