Cuz the west is full of unashamed whores, talk about politics and like being brash.
Not that Japan doesn't have its own share of whores or shameless people, but compared to the west they are more subtle and indirect when they open their mouths.

A lot of western vtubers act like civil rights activists instead of entertainers. Fanbases are also drastically different and JP chats are way more bearable because they know the proper stream chat etiquete.
Just look at the EN fans. They think that any type of kayfabe is "le cringe". They want your regular twitch retard streamer behind an anime avatar. What's the point then? Just go and watch your faggot flesh streamers then.
Also, western audiences are full of ironic weebs. Vtubers are literally their FIRST contact with otaku culture.

Go to a con in the west and look around. You will see Asians. Lots and lots of Asians. The western fan base is driven heavily by Asians. Asia has more Asians than the west, and therefore have a bigger audience. Fucking korea with less than 50 million people and mostly boomers had a giant ad dedicated to wishing suisei a happy birthday in the hongdae subway station. You think that shit would ever happen in nyc or Los Angeles? Never. And yes, yellow hands typed this post. Of fucking course. Now that you know all of this, ask yourself: who's gonna gather more attention, the Asian vtubers appealing to Asian audiences, particularly Japanese vtubers targeting Japanese audiences in a fandom directly adjacent to Japanese idol and anime culture, or the en vtubers trying to capture the Asians living in the west who are now being dragged back to workplaces post covid because Asian parents pushed them into wage cage white collar jobs under the impression that trades would be less prestigious?

Because for the past 20 years, weebs have convinced themselves sub > dub. They've convinced themselves so hard that by now they can't stand to see an anime girl and hear her speak anything other than Japanese. That's why games like Genshin Impact and Blue Archive have Japanese voice acting despite being Chinese and Korean respectively.

They have large marketing campaigns to advertise to otaku in Japan. Japanese culture is more open to cute anime girls also.

HololiveEN and NijisanjiEN are just low effort operations that were never supposed to succeed (like Indonesia and Korea before them), but they'll happily take your money anyway. This sort of thing is par for the course with Japanese companies.

This, also
Are you going to pretend that Gura on her prime wasn't a golden goose that mogged pretty much everyone else? Sure she didn't get that many supas because she never had superchat reading streams but holy shit she was (And still is) able to move merch.
Cover said that half of their profits came from overseas right? This is before Advent when HoloEN had like 1/4 of the talents on a branch that wasn't as old. Unless you pretend that most of it wasn't on EN talents I think you are just biased.

What do you think the overhead for a vtuber is? How much do you think they get from merchandise, sponsorships, memberships, streamlabs, etc.?

Being a streamer is easy money once you become relatively popular. It's cracking that nut to get noticed that's the really hard part, because everyone else is hustling just as hard if not harder.

She makes 600 million dollars in a year? That's a bit unbelievable. Just how expensive is her stuff? Or does she have literally millions of people making payments?
