Here's a short case study. Luna is a 0-year (3 year?) old princess of the candy kingdom who has saccharine verbal ticks that are Extremely Anime, but also has piano playing streams and is considered to be the best Dark Souls player of all the hololive members?? It seems like the result of putting anime tropes plus completely random bullshit into a blender and then trying to paste that over an existing human's personality.

I'll go down the rabbit hole a couple times a week but that's with curated, subtitled short videos, and simply peering over the lip of the deep dark well that is; learning conversational Japanese -> watching entire streams -> simping. Somehow I think it's quaint to think that just a few years ago there was basically just Kizuna Ai putting out Let's Plays.

because kizuna ai was much more of a corporate product and modern vtubers are largely people using whatever face tracking they can get

notice that kizuna ai, despite having higher production values, also has completely faded in popularity

Captain Cappy

Kizuna Ai was probably always recording in motion capture gear at a studio, where as most other vtubers you see are just using a face recognition application using their phone. I think others also suffer from having too much fidelity in their models, like where you see the model trying to match what their eyes are doing and it looks like they're freaking out. Kizuna Ai only had a handful of predefined faces she could make and they may have went back during post-production to fix things and pick the right faces based on the situation. Other vtubers do most/all their work on the fly during a stream and don't have the luxury of going back and fixing things.

I haven't kept up with Kizuna Ai so I didn't even know they were doing streams. I don't think the streamed Kizuna Ai stuff looks much different than other vtubers using mocap gear. Make sure you're not comparing apples (the simple face recognition stuff using an iphone) to oranges (mocap gear). Having looked at a Kizuna Ai stream briefly I do think her corporation has a decent edge in mouth and eye detection/animation but everything else looks about as good/bad as the other vtuber corporations.

Here's an example of Hololive 3D for instance:

Edit: gently caress now Kizuna Ai stuff is showing up in my recommends.
