Surely you don't have another pink haired, big boobed angel model in reserve, right Sachie?
Oh, you sweet summer child. I've been doing this for three years.
Greetings everyone! My name is Sachie Hitoka. I'm not new at this. I'm a Babiniku Vtuber with 3 years of vtubing experience.
I hope to get along with all you fucks.
Important, but not required. If you have a personality that's like stale toast, all the puppeting in the world won't make a difference.
Secondly, if doing it constantly stresses you out/makes streaming less enjoyable, don't do it.
So. Many Vtubers say to do this or that. To act like this or that.
As someone who's been in the game for a hot minute, let me tell you something.
It doesn't matter if your model is expensive or cheap.
It doesn't matter if you puppet your model or don't.
It doesn't matter if you're talented or not.
What matters is three things.
1. A niche that you enjoy and love with all your heart.
2. Not giving a fuck about numbers at all.
3. Being yourself. Don't sacrifice yourself and become sterile for attention.
4. This isn't required, but having connections with bigger creators help. Yes. I entirely mean to mooch off them. That's how this shit works. It's how show biz works. It's not like it's guaranteed. If their fans don't like you, it goes nowhere. But if they do, well, you've got a leg up.
Just keep fucking trucking. Sincerity and passion wins.
Even if people say it doesn't anymore. It's what lets you stick around for the long haul.
