> Basically it's like idols right?
Yes, but in the idols case it’s a parasocial relationship, they know their idol is a real person with real life acquaintances, of course the mental people keep obsessing and harassing them over relationships, but it’s on them.
Meanwhile vtubers fans actually try to convince themselves that the avatar is a real anime girl and pretend so, with the company in it too. it defeats the purpose of 3DPD.
Basically for idols obsession you can fully blame it on the invested person due to bad habits, but vtubers make way for delusional people.
