Anything that isn't a human in cosplay is a rarity in animu, except as one-dimensional villains. Humanoid robots (that are visibly robotic) are probably the most common, but non-humanoid robots, demihumans, sentient monsters (that aren't tiny chibi sidekicks), possessed objects, these are all rare.

>>4976818
I doubt a company would ever take a risk creating a character that strayed so far from the generic aesthetic. Would need to be either indie or something self directed like Vshojo.

That said if someone had a really creative character, got picked up by a company, and then adopted a really bland character on their order that'd suck too.

[Anonymous No.]

>>4976858
I do think companies will eventually branch out into some more wacky concepts as they go on. Experimentation is a risk but is there any point dropping another generic character into the bucket? May as well be of equal risk now.

[Anonymous No.]

>>4976779
You dumbass. You know why weird fucking avatars are so rare? It's because an avatar is an extension of the person puppeteering it. If your personality doesn't match the character, playing it feels awkward and untrue to yourself.
Sure an artist can draw and rig a geometric octahedron, but who out there feels like that actually represents them? For eons people have embodied themselves as animals in mythology, and that isn't changing anytime soon.

Armor parts are very, very bulky to show on screen.

Also 95% of artists who do vtubers don't want to do mecha and live2d riggers will charge extra, sometimes count mecha parts as a whole separate live2d to the bill.

If you do the math it will be easily at least $3,000-4,000 to draw it all up and $8,000-10,000 for rigging.

Oldfag bilingual utaite who's been at it for ten years or so; relatively established (a bunch of 1+ million view covers, two doujin albums, anime OP, etc), but never went pro outright. She's had some streaming history, and transitioned into a full chuuba about three months ago. Unfortunately, a lot of her post-debut VODs are now privated.

Still doing patreon streams though, and if she turns out to have reincarnated, I think it's still possible she might occasionally upload new covers and the like.

Feet without sandals don't have much interest. Art of feet usually show them from the bottom, which is unappealing as they're wrinkled like an old lady. Sandals show feet from above, where you can see toes and fabric from the shoe dancing beautifully up to the ankle. The toes can have polish on them to put more emphasis of their cuteness. Sandals are meant to worn outside which means the bare body can be appreciated from passerby. The exposed skin presented to outsiders show weakness usually only shown within the house. Sandals also mean Summer, and all the odors that are associated with them.
It's no exaggeration to say that sandals are superior to feet alone.
