>hurr why do they sound so fake?
I'm tired of seeing this complaint. Do the people who say this not know what the whole point of a vtuber is? They're playing a character, so of course they're gonna sound "fake." JP vtubers sound even faker, but the same people calling EN vtubers fake never complain about that. You wanna know why? Because they don't speak Japanese enough to know what normal non-anime Japanese sounds like. If you watched a JP vtuber speaking normally, you'd probably think they were boring because they're not saying "nye" or other weird noises at the end of every sentence. Stop saying every vtuber you don't like is "fake." It's meaningless at best, and at worst you're just complimenting them for being able to do their job well.

Seems to me this is the problem more than what your thesis statement was.

vocal minority westcucks just want a regular e-thot but with an anime avatar because they're ironic weebs, which is why every EN vtuber/agency delivers precisely that

hololive is the only exception and that's why they're the most successful (and the few exceptions within hololive are also the least successful ones)

The trick is to fall so far into the kayfabe that nobody can even tell where the illusion starts. I can't imagine the person behind Haachama being anything but Haachama.

I just find obviously faked voices like Fauna to be kind of skeevy and weird. It's like she's trying to sound younger by faking that high pitched generic egirl voice and I never really liked how it almost seems like she's condoning or even encouraging attraction to those kinds of fake voices meant to imitate very young anime girls. It doesn't even fit her model. She should just use her real voice like when she does her "ara ara" shit.

>they're playing a character
That's the point, just because you're playing a character doesn't mean you don't suck at it. JP are even more "fake" but they're better "actresses", meanwhile to those western bitchs they can't naturally act like cute girls, it's on their genetic the desire to be a Karen.

I don't think Fauna's faking her voice, it also doesn't sound like an "egirl voice", whatever the fuck that is.
>She should just use her real voice like when she does her "ara ara" shit.
This is especially not true, you can hear her really straining it to go low when she does that voice.

why do ironic weebs always think a higher pitched voice is always fake and only a mommy type voice is the real voice for a woman.

Not only they are fake, but they are also boring, and the fact that they are playing a character that is boring make it worse.

Because english has a deeper intonation but americans and bongs can't stop sucking their own cock for a second and use their brain. Besides some "cringe" women try to make that voice completely wrong and it gives it a bad reputation.

tl;dr but regular flesh streamers also sound fake on stream. That's not the intention, it's just that they don't want to sound boring and low energy. The same goes with vtubers.

i'd take boring but genuine over energetic but fake
