New VTuber Trend of Showing Their Bodies Upsets Some Fans

A new trend is happening on Twitter: VTubers are participating in something called “VTuber vs IRL”, which consists of posting a picture of their VTuber avatar and a picture showing part of their real body, without necessarily revealing their face.

And well, this new trend has caused some people to react very negatively. The situation became even bigger when VTuber Spite posted a tweet showing her VTuber model and her body wearing only a bikini, reaching 1 million views and more than 800 replies.

Below is her post:

You can check her original tweet and see both pictures in better quality, as well as all the comments she received.

While many people praised her body, saying that she keeps herself in excellent shape, there were also those who disliked seeing VTubers “breaking the magic” by posting real pictures of themselves. Below you can see some reactions:

• “The point of being a VTuber is to never show your actual face or body. This proves VTubing has been taken over by E-girls and OnlyFans women. Western VTubing has gone to hell.”
• “VTubers whose personality is ‘I’m a wh***’.”
• “This is part of why I generally hate the Western VTubing scene. It really seems like 90% of it is made up of E-girls with Fansly accounts. Is that all the West has to offer? No wonder everyone was so quiet about Offkai.”
• “Imagine paying thousands and thousands of dollars, in some cases over $10,000, for a VTuber avatar… just to start posting thirst traps, the lowest form of content imaginable, something any woman with a camera can do for free.”
• “I really hate this trend, and I’m only going to say this once: Some things are meant to be seen only by your partner. If you are showing your body to everyone, don’t expect people to see you any differently than a wh***.”
• “Why use an avatar when you are an IRL ho*?”
• “This is what I hate about VTubing. It is literally just E-girl streamers all over again, but now with anime avatars, and the majority of them are just men using voice changers and paying someone to be the girl in the pictures.”
• “What the f*** is the actual point of this? You are a VTuber. Showing your flesh is like a vampire walking around during the day. What the hell are you doing, bro?”
• “‘Western VTubing’ — looks inside: a bunch of OnlyFans/Fansly girls.”

• “Fansly whores pretending to care about VTuber culture to sell more nudes to cucks.”
• “If you are a VTuber, why post your real body?”
• “I’m not even going to lie. This isn’t attractive to me anymore. Knowing that women are hateful creatures turns me away from anything like this. Cool? You shared your body wearing little clothing, but I don’t care. It doesn’t matter anyway. This stuff will only get worse.”
• “I liked it when VTubing was just people who didn’t want to show their faces but wanted to express themselves through their artistic skills. Not just promoting their OnlyFans and tricking people into spending too much money on things they don’t need.”
• “There are plenty of prostitutes, and you are one of them.”
• “I’m so tired of this f***ing bullshit. If you’re going to show your body, go be a normal streamer. We don’t care what you look like. We watch your content because of your personality. You already made your model extremely sexualized, so you might as well show your real cleavage on stream at this point.”
• “This will not sit well with some people, but… why be a VTuber if you are going to post IRL pictures? VTubing is supposed to be anonymous. The less you show or tell, the better. I wouldn’t mind this kind of trend (or any type of real-life pictures) if you just DIDN’T call yourself a VTuber.”
• “VTubing has really become nothing more than posting sexy content just to get viral posts.”
• “At least she’s hot and not extremely obese like most of the ones I’ve seen.”
• “It was kind of inevitable. Animation has become so big, with so many fans around the world, that it only makes sense for adult entertainers to enter this space. I’m not a fan either… I wish anime had never become mainstream.”
• “The VTuber vs IRL trend has just become advertising for an OnlyFans or Fansly account.”
• “It is really a shame. Anonymity was the core concept, and it has been thrown out the window.”
• “It is simply pointless. If you are so comfortable showing your body, why be a VTuber in the first place?”
