For me it goes like this.Kizuna AI > Kaguya Luna > Gawr Gura > Ouro Kronii > Takanashi Kiara > 2view Indie > Takanashi Kiara > Large Indie (but still pretty unknown)Also don't lie and say you have time to watch all of them.
>>106870089Do reincarnations count? If so, it goes Mumei > Selen > Fuwamoco > DokiProbably not as much as most, but I thankfully was able to find my match pretty early.
Just two, Pomu Rainpuff and then a 2views indie who's still my oshi now.You never forget your first.
>>106870089Ame > Dooby. I'm not a whore who switches her oshi depending on how I 'm feeling at the moment. I have enough mental capacity to enjoy other girls streams without having to consider them oshis
>>106870579eh, the thing about sticking to one girl forever is that you can't ever truly know who fits you until you try out a bunch. I'm >>106870445 and for a while I genuinely believed Mumei was my oshi until Selen debuted, who clicked instantly for me. Then at some point I got pushed away by sisters making it difficult to enjoy her and went all in on Fuwamoco. Then when Selen became separated from Niji and filtered the shitty fans, I realized how much I genuinely enjoyed her and came back to the newer, kinder community, now able to appreciate her better after having other communities to compare to. Now, I can't imagine swapping to anybody else since I know for certain that both she and her community is a perfect fit for me.
>>106870579Whoever you watch most is your oshi.
>>106870513Why do people watch 2 viewer indies? Are you trying to fantasize being with her? 99% of them are literally terrible at streaming and barely function as a human with lots of mumbling and giggling to cover the boring streams.
my 7 year long oshi switcher journey is as followsMinato Aqua > Yuuki Sakuna
>>106870872Fair enough>>106870917Wrong.
>>106870089Hundreds. Thousands even. I have ADHD.
>>106870947My oshi isn't a 2view but I absolutely have some 2views I'm very involved with community-wise.2view communities tend to be very close-knit and can be treated more as a friend group with a "leader" than an entertainer-viewer relationship. They usually treat streaming as a hobby and don't intend on taking things any farther than that, which can be very welcoming if you find a fun one. I think for my favorite, I've had my twitch sub going for a little over 3 years now and I pop back in whenever I'm feeling down since I know she'll be online and I can get that serotonin boost from both her and the community recognizing me.
>>106870089Took me forever to even consider anybody an Oshi
>>106871203To me, that sounds a lot like parasocial behavior desu. There is nothing to gain from watching them besides doing more work on your end to spread awareness for their sake.
>>106870947nta, but I found the 1% for me and she is worth it all
>>106870089i dont really have something like an "oishi" but my favourites were as follows:alfhilde, fallenshondo, goomi, tenma maemi, goomi again, currently tenma but considering croc and peeking at wemi due to respect
>>1068700890
>>106871265Eh, sure, but it's still fine since it's pretty harmless at that level since your push is more towards making the community more fun or entertaining like a friend group rather than focusing on raising awareness/supporting their career itself.
>>106870089GGN > FWMC
>>106871335I can see where you're coming from, who is it?
>>106871265Is it still parasocial if they talk to you and play games with you?
>>106871444I'd rather not say who since I'd like to keep her off of /vt/'s radar. One time an out of context tweet she made got noticed /here/ and anons just kept jumping on her for a few days, forcing her to take a break for a month or two.
>>1068700893, Jelly Hoshiumi>high2/low 3view indie>Runie Ruse
>>106870947You are a literal faggot. A lot of them are great but how would you know. You are watching someone with 20000 others so she never gives a shit, doesn't even notice your comment. Also just because the big corpo viewbotted her she's not automatically entertaining.

>>106872026please get help, you sound like a parasocial nutjob. post some indie vtubers then? prove us wrong that they aren't all "mumble giggle tubers".
>>106872463You mean a good streamer needs to be loud?
>>106872463No one will post any indies because they all mumble/giggle nonstop and have literally 0 redeeming qualities besides being "smaller so easier to communicate with". I guarantee you'll only see deflection.
Calli for a month, then Kiara ever since. 5 years strong. Also I love Myth ^_^
>>106870089Im mainly a clip watcher but I think it went like thisKorone -> Suisei -> Pekora -> Kanade -> RadenRecently started learning japanese to watch Raden's streams (and I'm also interested in Nijisanji JP)
Lulu then Ina
Just two. The first was a low two view who was really sweet. Joined her community. We DMed a bit. She sent me nudes. Found out she had a husband. Noped the fuck out immediately. second was a Vallure chick. She went nuts and I just said fuck it and went back to casually watching vtubers again.
>>106870089I'm not a slut, so just one: Takanashi Kiara.
>>106870089Mio -> Sora -> Flare -> Chihaya
>>106870089Ina > Suisei > CC
>>106870089Mint - Pomu - Mint
Bad tastes
>>106870089WHORE
>>106870089Two. If/when anything happens to my current one I'm swearing off making living people my oshi, so she'll be my last.
>>106870089Haachama, then Gura for a little while, then Tenma. However it's been Onolumi for a couple years now and I don't see that ever changing.
>>106872463Fuck off, proctor.
>>106882854wait does this mean you'll only oshi dead people, or that you'll kill your next oshi?
>>106883579hardworking indies are nice
>>106884842NTA, I really like Chama and Gura but they've both been chewed up by corpo life. It's hard to watch.
>>106870089In priority:>Fuckton of indies>Ange Katrina>Kaela
>>106870089Shiro>Kurumi>hiatus>2 indies in my language
>>106870089>Coco Kiryu, Gawr Gura, FaunaThey all graduated and I don't watch their indie forms. I started watching gachaslop vtubers (indies, Nijis, whoever) as that's what I usually play, and I don't care enough about the vtuber as much as the content they're streaming nowadays.
>>106870089I basically watched Ame until she started getting grumpy (around titanfall 2).Then watched Mint/Pomu until Luca pissed me off. Watched Riro from debut until that catastrophic end and decided not to follow her indie account.I spent some time lost giving several small corpo chuubas chances. Until I found this 3view indie I'm really attached to currently.
>>106870089One.
Mint>Ame>Pomu>Selen>Neuro-Sama>Dokibird=Evil Neuro
>>106886539anon, i don't think doki is an evil neuro...
>>106889008In her last minecraft stream, she trapped a man in an unbreakable prison, removed his teleport rights, reset his spawn point so he could never warp out, and then killed his horse and placed pieces of its leather in on every wall in the room so that no matter where he turns, he'll always see a gorey piece of his old friend.o7 El Mexicant...
selen, then dokii didn't fully grasp the concept of oshi before her, when i used to watch holo, and at some point (probably after coco's graduation) i've almost dropped vtubers. but that retard made my brain click with her instantly, she's cool. there are periods when i get kind of fatigued tho and watch her less, but in the end i'm still with her
>>106870089Kizuna Ai > Nekomiya Hinata > Kiryu Coco > Gawr Gura > IRyS
>>106870089have told myself a few times I was gonna oshihen, but you can't just force yourself to stop loving someone, even if some of the things they do hurt you...right...
>>106870089I wouldn't call any of them my oshi, but my personal top chuuba title holder timeline goes something like this:2018 Natori Sana2020 Kiryu Coco (lasted about a week) > Houshou Marine > Tsukino Mito2021 Sasaki Saku > Tsukino Mito2022 Houshou Marine > Nakiri Ayame
>>106870947>and gigglingthat's the best part.
>>106871496tourists will use "parasocial" as an insult without having the slightest idea of what it means. they can parrot back a definition but they don't get it.
I watch assloads of chuubas but member'd like 7
>>1068709472 views can't ignore your existence
Korone
>>106889382Nah I dropped Shiori instantly earlier this year with the stuff she did then. Not because of homocollabs directly, because I watch JPs who collab with males and don’t care at all, but because of the pretending there was no negative feedback and banning members Made me feel very uneasy that any comment or feedback she took slightly the wrong way would lead to instant ban and deletion as if I didn’t even exist, so I bounced straight away myself
>>106883866It means I go back to my roots and only oshi 2D characters or turn religious
>>106870089Pikamee & Ina > Mumei & Biboo for me.
Fubuki (probably forcing myself since shes the first one I watched) > AZKi
>>106870089Western fans dont know what the fuck oshi actually means. You dont have MULTIPLE oshi, its ONE oshi. I had 4 so far in my 6 years of watching vtubers and just because they just kept being exposed as whore and graduated.
>>106893883Western anime fandom was less obnoxious when we approached anime stuff on Western terms instead of doing a bad larp of Japanese otaku
>>106870089two, a time travelling detective and a completely unrelated train operator
>>106870089One. Two if you count actual idols. I'm not a whore.
Niji EN girl who shall not be named > Niji EN girl who shall not be named > idol EN girl who shall not be named > V4Mirai girl who shall not be named > FUWAMOCO > Biboo
same two i've always had as a Ghost Dragoon :D
>>106893883I had no oshi for about 4 years and called having one cringe that entire timeThen I oshi'd Twisty Amanozako from NijiEN -> Delulu Deliria -> Manururu NekokoToday I'm back to being oshiless because retarded coombrained tourists sucked all of her joy for vtubing out of her by chimping out non-stop for her to suck all the cum out of their peownis. If you love your oshi discourage her from ever doing asmr unless she's a totally jaded grifter. Asmrfags are a cancer that are impossible to gatekeep out since they jack off to being ostracised and will either mindbreak your oshi into quitting or harden their soul into a jaded grifter.
1. No longer my oshi though. Been a ronin since then but I don't think I'll find a replacement.
>>106892286they can, with hilarious melties ensuing
>>106896125Didn't she cry about not getting into the whorpo on her alt
>>106897890>Been a ronin since thenso friggin tuff. had chills reading that
>before 2021preoccupied with rule 15, vtubers are for fags>2021-2024preoccupied with anime, vtubers are for fags except music and porn>2025Ogayu
>>106870089I watched some vtubers before but wouldn't really have called anyone an oshi before Ame and Gura. Then later on picked up Nenechi and Koyori too.Then FWMC and Cecilia. These days it's mostly FWMC and CC for me with some Nene/Koyo on the side.
>>106870089you only have ONE oshi. if you think you have many, you're a WHORE.
>>106870947They can be fun? I found one Italian girl that is a 2 view and I have fun watching her from time to time. She often overlaps with my actual oshi so I don't watch her that often
>>106870089ive only ever had one and it was the last one too
>>106870947Do you even know what oshi means? It's your favourite, someone you support, someone you root for. If you enjoy a 2view, and want to see them grow into a bigger, more popular streamer/idol, they are your oshi, simple as.
Only CC
>>106899807oshikatsu
>>106870089only one, i waited a while before making a decision until i felt decision was made for me and i never looked back
>>106893883>You dont have MULTIPLE oshi, its ONE oshi.If you have the resources to support multiple, then I don't see an issue.
>>106870579>herMaybe it's just because she's my oshi too but I've noticed Ame/Dooby tends to have a lot of girls that are fans of hers. Good job not being a whore, foid
>>106893883>You dont have MULTIPLE oshi, its ONE oshi.This was only true 20+ years ago, oshi culture has changed, it's no longer taboo to have multiple oshi, to be DD/MD, etc. Keep up with the times.
>>106902180The most important resource is time and that's pretty limited, if you ask me. Unless you're a neet then you have other issues as well.
>>1068700891
I considered Watame my oshi before I understood what that term actually meant. Then I watched Subaru's 3rd anniversary live, finally understood and never looked back.
1
>>106870089all genuine peeps who found mental healing and newfound fun in life from vtubing are my oshis, they bring a special kind of joy to the world with their streams and collabs, specially if its their own ideagrifters n pretenders who brag about hustling their fans in unfunny ways, need not apply
I HAD one, but some stupid shit happened, leading me to drop her and her stopping streaming. Currently oshiless.
I like watching many streamers, but I have 1 oshi.
>>106870089>Kizuna AII miss her
>>106870089One
>>106893883not the case anymore. that’s why kami oshi is a term now.
All these anons say 1 but I bet they watch other girls' streams!
>>106870089>how many oshiThat's not how it works you fucking slut.
>>106903716just watch important livestreams instead of fillers
