If you get lucky, you'll get an influx of new followers who have no idea what Vtubing is. Isn't that exciting?
However, once the fad dies, a lot of them will also leave. It's up to YOU to be entertaining enough to RETAIN them. Change these trend-chasers into actual fans!
I remember when Youtubing start becoming super popular. I kicked myself for not making content earlier on because the market was already saturated.
That's where we are right now. If you're a Vtuber right now, you have a TREMENDOUS advantage over future Vtubers.
The market is emerging and the bubble hasn't even finished growing! This is YOUR time to stake your claim and build your brand. It's not going to be easy, but it's going to be a HELL of a lot harder to get noticed a year down the line.
If you're still small and you're worried about "missing your chance", this is the time to put in the work if you're serious about Vtubing.
You don't have to be big RIGHT NOW to succeed. You just need to be memorable and entertaining. Those who prepare will reap the benefits.
When this bubble pops, we'll lose a lot of the new followers we'll get. Our accounts may stagnate. It's going to be very hard for all of us.
But if you put in the work to provide genuinely entertaining content, people WILL stick around. But only if you give them a reason to.

With Pewdiepie becoming a Vtuber and the #VTuberUprising happening, I think this MIGHT herald the beginning of the next phase of Vtubing.
Some Jusagi thoughts and predictions
This is the Gartner Hype Cycle and every new and exciting technology goes through this. There's a ton of hype for something, then there's a crash as the bubble bursts.
For Vtubing, I think that's going to happen when more big names (like Pewds) join the Vtubing trend.
There'll be a huge groundswell of mainstream attention to Vtubing (like... actually mainstream, not just us weebs) where there'll be THOUSANDS and THOUSANDS of new Vtubers trying to hit it big. That'll be the inflated expectation point.
Hello hello #ENVtuber! My schedule for next week is out! Study it closely~
