/vt/ - Virtual Youtubers

You have a boyfriend so it makes sense you wouldn't get it, but basically this is a hobby for lonely men who like anime with no real female companionship who watch anime girls as a substitute for real human interaction. Less often lonely women as well.

>My boyfriend
Hi! How are you doing today? I think it's so cool you're a girl and you use 4chan!

>>5187966
It's kind of like a reality tv show but with anime girls. There's a fantasy of the 2nd dimension breaking into the 3rd one

>>5187966
You wouldn't get it.

You wouldn't get it.

If your boyfriend watches vtubers it means you need to pay him more attention and pamper him

Strippers are for the desires of the flesh. Vtubers are for the desires of the soul.

>Can someone explain to me what the deal is with these things? My boyfriend watches vtuber stuff and occasionally shows them to me, too, and I honestly just do not get the attraction of anime girls playing video games and saying stupid shit.
I was once like you, but you could probably find one that appeals to you if you look hard enough. Like music? There are genuinely talented singers who focus on producing songs and live concert type streams. Like banter? There are a lot of vtubers who just shoot the shit like a radio show host and it's just funny to listen to and enjoy. And if you like video games there are ones that enjoy streaming games and reacting to them, which can be fun if you are curious about whatever game they're playing, or just like that game and want to see them react to it.

Okay, like anime body pillows? And there’s a reason why it hasn’t stopped?

>>5188049
I am a 27-year-old man.

>>5188060
Okay. I don’t get reality TV either, but I guess it makes sense that there’s significant overlap between two things I don’t see the appeal of.

>>5187966
Boys want an anime girlfriend. That's it, that's the whole industry.

>>5187966
Take your med anon

>>5187966
are you really unable to handle people enjoying things you don't enjoy? why do you need the 'entertainment value' of this explained to you? is it not enough to accept that this isn't your thing and move on to consume things you like instead?

>>5188092
Not OP, but me and my boyfriend both watch vtubers and discuss them

>And there’s a reason why it hasn’t stopped
Why would it stop? As long as lonely people exist in this world there will be an audience for this kind of entertainment. It's the same reason Twitch simps donate their life savings to half-naked girls in hot tube.

>>5188287
Then that’s fine, I was talking about OP since her boyfriend watches vtubers but she doesn’t know much about them

>>5187966
typically vtubers are a social stand in for lonely guys who want anime women, although here it seems your boyfriend wishes to be an anime woman

>>5188292
I was wondering why HE hasn’t stopped.

I used to drink heavily because of how lonely I was, and I quit drinking when we started dating because I wasn’t lonely anymore.

Why keep the coping mechanism after the situation is over?

>>5187966
Cheap bait

It means your boyfriend wants to fill loved and you aren’t doing it, don’t feel bad just spend more time with him and pamper him

>>5188500
maybe if you sucked his dick more he would stop. your getting ntred by virtual girls.

>>5188202
>I am a 27-year-old man.
imagine being a faggot and getting cucked by a woman pretending to be a shark girl

>>5187966
>>5187966
>Like what is the entertainment value of this?
Girlfriend simulator.

But you're probably wondering, why does he need that when he has (you)?
The answer is simple, he thinks you're worthless. You completely failed not only as his girlfriend, but as a woman, because the only man in your life prefers the company of a virtual anime girl than yours, you failed to please him sexually and emotionally. You lacked so much as a partner, that he had no option but to run away and watch some anime loli shark to fill his needs. You should be worried, because soon enough, instead of paying for dates, he'll just stick with superchatting that mentally handicapped shark.

>>5187966
OP, your boyfriend is only attracted to mentally handicapped children. That is why he watches the shark girl, and it's also why he's still fucking you.

>>5187966
I am his bf, just ignore him guys. Sometimes he is a retard but it's normal

Yeah he is gay

>>5188202
Try watching Artemis.

>>5187966
Given the responses in this thread, the only thing you should do is talk with him, as his motives are unknown. As others have mentioned, there are couples that watch them, so it isn't necessarily a sign of your relationship dying
Plus, it also depends on how much of a fan he is

>>5188202
>Okay, like anime body pillows? And there’s a reason why it hasn’t stopped?
Vtubers have personalities.

Also that explanation was terribly one-sided. There's also people who just like the idea of anime girl LARPing. For others it's like watching kittens and puppies, but instead of animals you have women with their own thoughts and personalities.

>reddit spacing
go back, cretin

>>5187966
They are cute and funny. That is literally it

>>5188202
>an actual gay
Go watch Belmond Banderas.

>>5188500
You aren't a good enough companion to cure him of his loneliness, he probably hasn't consciously realised it if he's showing you clips though.

>>5188018
I'm not sure you had to put such a fine point on this.

>>5188202
I really hope you weren't expecting good advice from this cesspool of a website.

>op's gay boyfriend watches Gura
He's watching a woman larp as an anime shark girl for entertainment, the same way people watch TV
>op's gay boyfriend watches Kanae
He's going to leave you soon.

>>5188202
uh oh, bad news. your bf is secret straight, lad
