VTuber Porn: Everything You Need To Know About Adult Vtubers

The used panty marketplace

Maybe we’re getting old but the number of new generational crazes are getting a lot to keep up with. Today's concept is not a new one, as many people throughout media history have achieved great fame and remained anonymous behind a guise. Take Daft Punk, Sia, or Marshmello for instance. Obviously, with a quick google search, we can see their faces, but you get the point. If you haven't already guessed it, we’re talking about VTubers! We’ll explain how the new trend shows no signs of slowing down, how it has infiltrated the adult industry and maybe how you can make a few bucks off this thing.

What are VTubers? 

A good place to start is probably at the beginning. The phrase VTuber is short for Virtual YouTubers and is used to describe an online entertainment personality hidden behind an animated avatar. These avatars usually resemble anime characters with their iconic wide, glistening eyes and impossible haircuts but are not limited to these designs.

VTubers technology has improved over the years enabling people to create avatars of themselves through applications and perform live streams with their avatar in real-time with no editing. Millions hop online daily to watch their favourite VTubers stream on Twitch and YouTube just as they would watch any regular streamer. From gameplay to reaction video’s people love the concept of their cute anime virtual entertainer. 

The History of VTubers

The first official recordings of VTuber content on YouTube was back in 2011 with a character named Ami Yamato. Ami is a London based virtual vlogger who mainly talks about things concerning pop culture, sketches and movie parodies. However, just as she explains in her introductory video she talks about anything and everything which is possibly why so many people enjoy VTubing. The real human personality behind the animated character makes them so much more relatable and less likely to creep you out.

Ami being the first instance of VTubing, kickstarted the industry, making leaps and bounds and essentially creating the beginning of the VTuber trend. Seizing the opportunity, the toy company - Mattel who made the world-famous Barbie, took up VTubing as a marketing tool in 2015. They released two vlogs a month featuring an animated VTuber Barbie, Nikki and Ken who would carry out popular vlogger challenges and discuss cultural topics with the youth. The channel has over 10 million subscribers so the marketing genius’s involved in this campaign definitely found a way to enter the internet generations homes after they forgot about the television shows.

VTubing didn’t actually earn the name ”VTubing” until the online sensation Kizuna AI coined the term herself in 2016 and was revered as the pioneer of the VTuber scene. Kizuna AI is the virtual embodiment of an anime girl, taking on all of the tropes. We're talking thigh-high boots, opera gloves, mini skirts, massive bows and bubbly personalities that viewers around the world find so infatuating. If there’s one thing that we know about adorable anime girls like this, is that they are the sexual fantasy of millions of us out there, hence carving a clear path into the adult industry. But, more on this later.

What took Kizuna AI to the next level of VTubing was being the first to Livestream and interact with fans conducting Q&A’s responding to all of the questions our geeky guys and gals were burning to ask. In less than a year Kizuna had acquired over 2 million subscribers on YouTube alone. This viral response led to Kizuna becoming a staple brand in Japan featuring her in numerous adverts over the years and becoming the very first VTuber celebrity. Kizuna spends her day's gaming on Twitch, doing cover songs on her main channel and of course trying her hand at ASMR, for reasons we all know why. 

Thanks to Kizunas explosion in popularity it propelled the scene into the fast-growing VTuber culture that we know and love today. On any given day you can hop onto a major streaming platform and find people engaging with a virtual persona. When you think about it, it’s quite a logical progression as people love to interact with funny streamer personalities like Tyler1 and Dr Disrespect. So a virtual character with today's technology holds so much possibility.

VTuber Porn 

Now time for the meat and potatoes of this whole thing. VTubers and porn! If you are a fan of hentai or animated porn at the very least then boy do we have a treat for you. Imagine a place where your hottest animated characters can perform sexual deeds with the same personality and mannerisms that you love. Yes, VTuber porn is a thing!

Porn Videos 

The most popular videos primarily consist of either solo masturbation, dirty talk or girl on girl action. That’s not to say you can’t find a hot, cis VTuber couple boning on camera. Admittedly there are some tracking issues with the animation and it is a little buggy at times when they’re in certain positions but it’s still rather impressive. Who knows, maybe a little glitchiness adds to the whole virtual fantasy experience. 

Users such as VirtuallyLewd is a popular VTuber on “The Hub” who creates solo videos of herself in various positions being, quite realistically, humped. She talks, she moans and she says all of the natural and unscripted things a woman can conjure in the heat of the moment. All of which is carried out under the cover of an animated figure of a gorgeous anime girl with pointed ears and horns. By the millions of views on her channel and special fan request videos she makes, fans really love the content. 

The technical term for these content creators are LewdTubers but the best way to find them is by searching the phrase “VTuber Porn” in your favourite porn locator.

VTuber Camshows 
When we mentioned “all major streaming platforms” we meant “all” major streaming platforms. There has been a surge in VTubers on adult streaming platforms such as Chaturbate, possibly due to the development of VTuber technology and the increase in demand. These performers can quite literally stand in front of the camera without showing their face or body and get paid for it. However, we must give VTubers credit for their performances during their lewd live streams as they still have to get into character, physically and audibly mimicking sex which is certainly something that requires practice.

Similar to normal camming, people tipping or reaching a certain tip goal corresponds with specific sexual acts that you’d like your model to perform; VTubers follow the same protocol. You can see progressively more and more clothing being removed as the tips start coming in, alongside some of the finest jiggle physics on perfect animated breasts.

When it comes to VTubing there are really no limitations to what you can achieve live on camera. Of course, they will have to have many things animated and the correct tech-savviness to pull it off but cumming, gaping, squirting you name it they can do it, all at the literal click of a button. One VTuber even claimed to have given her panties away to a viewer!

A downside before we continue to promote the AI revolution is that the intimacy of stripping clothing is rather difficult to attain through these animations. You’ll likely find that most of the VTubers clothes will simply disappear in an instant or cut to a version of themselves without clothes. Which might ruin the experience for those who love stripping. 

Popular Adult VTubers 

After learning about VTubers we suspect that some of you are looking to scratch that itch we have created. So, here is a list of some of the most popular Adult VTubers across their various platforms.

PornHub:

Chaturbate:

The creators content aren't exclusive to the sites we’ve mentioned so the chances are they have more out there for you on different platforms. Now that we have satisfied our potential VTube consumer's let's talk about becoming a VTuber.

How Does Vtubing Work? 

VTubing works by using software to interpret and sync up an avatar to the movements you perform on a live camera feed. The software is designed to focus on the lips, eyes and head movements to accurately match up the animations of your avatar. So that’s how we can get those emphasised blinks and facial expressions. Depending on the complexity of the software performers can connect motion controllers to accurately track limb movement and operate individual digits. Yes, fingering is now possible in the virtual world!

All of the VTuber software has to be compatible with popular streaming and capturing applications such as OBS Studio. These are what’s used to connect your camera to the relevant streaming platform you are using, be it Twitch, Chaturbate, YouTube etc. 

The deeper you dive into the VTuber rabbit hole the more you might discover about VTubing agencies. Big names such as Hololive, Nijisanji and AKA Virtual keep popping up but not many people are too sure what they do. The limited information we do have on them is that they are VTuber agencies. Similar to a normal talent agency Virtual YouTubers will audition or be scouted to see if they can make the cut to become one of their VTubers that fit their image. By taking a look at each of the companies and the type of VTube characters they create you can get somewhat of an understanding of their brand.

Once being successfully cast as a VTuber, agencies provide their entertainers with recording studios and equipment to drastically improve the quality of their streams. However, the real benefit of being part of these companies is the great exposure they provide. They seem to have a monopoly over the many notorious VTube stars IRyS, Mori Calliope and Watson Amelia to name a few. It’s no coincidence that almost all of their stars have hundreds of thousands to a few million subscribers each. These companies do a great job in promoting and organising collaborations between various VTubers.

The darker side of things is that no one actually knows how much money these VTubers make from this level of notoriety. Agencies do not disclose their cut of money from super chats and donations, responsibilities and contractual obligations or if the VTubers employed even receive a salary. Clearly, some NDA’s are being signed here.

Don’t be put off by this however as there are heaps of independent VTubers out there doing their thing!

How To Start VTubing

If you’re interested in dipping your toes into VTubing then you’ll probably need to know a few things first, like the equipment you will need to get started.

You will need:

A Camera 
Not to sound patronising but a decent camera is important. Your facial expressions and movements will need to be captured in real-time so most of the big time VTubers will use expensive DSLR cameras. However, a good webcam will definitely suffice to start off and certainly won’t break the bank. This Logitech C922 is a great budget option to get your streams up and running.

A Good PC 
If you don't already own a PC with good processing power then this is likely where most of your money will go. What specifications your PC needs is entirely dependent on what you plan to be doing in your streams. If you plan on having some wholesome Twitch streams recording yourself playing video games then this will require a lot more juice. If you plan on sitting in front of the camera chatting, being a little naughty or downright shaking what your mamma gave ya! Then it’s likely a basic build will be enough.

Luckily we live in a day and age where computers aren’t hard to come by and shouldn’t be too expensive if we know what to look for. Having little or no experience with PC’s, we recommend paying that additional premium to get it pre-built. There’s nothing worse than looking inside a computer that could blow at any moment. Jokes aside, it could genuinely be a fire hazard so only if you know what you’re doing.

Try searching around on sites like PC Partpicker to find the following budget components required for your streaming PC. There are loads of great in-depth guides on how to build the perfect streaming setup for your budget.

You can put together a great setup for a little under $600 if you put your money in the right place and avoid massive brand name prebuilds like Razer. It’s nothing personal against their gear, but it’s like buying brand name clothing; you can spend $500 on a Gucci T-shirt but a $5 printed tee will do the same job.

Good Lighting 
Having good lighting can make a world of difference to your streaming, as the VTubing software will be able to pick up and interpret your facial expressions and movements much better. Prioritising lighting over camera quality is a must when VTubing. This does mean you will have to invest in a ring light or so but these can be bought for 5 - $10 so it’s not all doom and gloom.

An Avatar 
This is essentially the character that your viewers will see on screen while you are on air. You can spend as little or as much as you’d like on your avatar as this is what your brand and online personality is based around. VTuber avatars vary massively in price as they can be as simple as a head and shoulders with multiple different facial expressions, or complex full-body animations complete with jiggle physics and limb tracking. 

So how do I get an avatar? The most popular way to get your hands on an avatar is to commission an artist to design one for you. The cost is obviously at the artist's discretion and the complexity of the design. But, working closely with an artist is a sure-fire way to bring your vision to life. There are plenty of artists on sites like VTuberArt, Fiverr, Upwork and even Reddit where you can hire freelancers and look through their portfolios.

Buying a premade model is also another option. Sites such as Sketchfab offer a range of existing 3D models that can be as cheap as $3 depending on what you’re looking for. You’ll have to look at the animations that it comes with and possibly contact the artist about it. But this is definitely a cheaper alternative to commissioning a custom made avatar. 

The cheapest option on the table will be to make one yourself. Now, this will require experience in 3D modelling or a willingness to learn with a can-do attitude. Free 3D modelling software such as Tinkercad and Vectary is a good place to start. Finally, Steam VTuber Maker is an application that makes an avatar for you if you with no fuss. It simply traces around you from your camera. We recommend this for anyone just looking to try it out.

VTubing Software 
Last but not least, we’ll need software to track the animation onto the live feed from your webcam. There is no need to be frightened however because there is a free alternative available on the market. Wakaru is another free Steam application that is compatible with many cameras and streaming software. As it is a free, comprehensive and easy-to-use program it can have some glitches from time to time, especially when it comes to face tracking and talking animations. Despite this, it is an awesome program considering it costs $0.

For those willing to part with some cash for a solid upgrade then animaze by FaceRig is the move. Animaze offers much more benefits such as backgrounds, full-body tracking and compatibility with motion controllers as well as more accurate facial tracking. The company has various subscription levels depending on what you’re looking for and how serious you’re willing to take this. But alternatively, they do have a free version option in their subscription package.

The only thing left for you to do now is to go live!

Why I Should Give VTubing A Try

Those who hate dealing with computers might be deterred by the idea of setting up a VTuber stream and miss out on all of the redeeming qualities that come along with it. Take a moment to read through these reasons before deciding if it’s worth your while or not.

Sexiness on your terms.

What you do with your virtual avatar is entirely up to you and the audience you want to appeal to. While opportunities are abundant in the adult side of VTubing you decide how explicit you’d like to get. Many people fall in love with the characters voice, personality and avatar so the sexual side of things is just a bonus. Of course, there are just as many PG-rated options out there like gaming, ASMR, and chatting that don’t require you to turn your viewers on. 

It’s anonymous.

Usually, peoples reservations when it comes to camming, are based around committing to the adult industry and inherently the judgement that comes with it. With VTubing your entire identity can remain anonymous meaning that none of the penalties of being associated with the adult industry can be applied to you. Your friends, colleagues and family don't ever have to find out… Just make sure you don’t give your character your real name.

It’s fun!

Interacting with fans online who love and adore your content can build a lot of self-confidence. Not only that but getting off with them, whether it’s your kink or not, is a safe and fun way to give a great performance with pleasure for both parties involved.

How To Make Money As An Adult VTuber 

The world of content creation is constantly evolving as our taste for alternative forms of entertainment develops. VTubers within the decade have certainly become a viable source of income and even profession. The upper echelon of VTubers like Kiryo Coco, for example, earns roughly $134,000 a month.

Opportunities are rife within the industry as the options to live stream, produce videos and acquire ad partnerships with other brands show multiple avenues of making money. So let’s assume we’ve done all of the necessary work to get our stream up and running, where do we go from here?

Promoting a successful VTuber channel takes what most businesses do; finding your niche and branding. The biggest agencies follow a very particular image with the avatars they use and the personalities of each of their characters. Almost like casting for one big streamer network TV show, where the characters all have their individual stories running simultaneously. Now, we’re not saying to create this. But, take some inspiration from what’s popular; famous anime, video games, memes and pop culture. These all usually give great ideas for what your character should be like.

Finding a niche is pretty essential as well. If you have a penchant for playing video games then a gaming YouTube channel alongside Twitch streaming should be your shtick. There’s obviously loads of competition out there for regular content creators trying to jump into this but the advantage of being a VTuber gives you a sort of novelty. If sex is your thing and you even have experience camming then making an adult stream on various streaming websites like Chaturbate or NudeLive is a great option. 

Taking this route should be accompanied by promoting your content on as many adult friends social media websites as possible. Things like Twitter, Tumblr and even Reddit. Leaving links to pages like Patreon, Onlyfans and other Onlyfans alternatives can bring in some extra dough if you film some exclusive content.

The key to this industry is producing content and engaging with the fans wherever you can. After all, they tune in live streams to interact with this character as closely as they can so being attentive to their requests can really help to build the following. Before long you could have viewers making it rain with donations in your chat room!

The Next Generation Of Streaming Content? 

Some of VTubers' increase in popularity has been attributed to the national lockdowns taking place during the pandemic. With millions of people being stuck inside looking for various forms of entertainment, many people in the VTuber industry rocketed to success. Famous Hololive VTuber Gawr Gura gained over 2 million subscribers in just 4 months, only to eventually overtake Kizuna AI as the most subscribed VTuber channel.

Even though lockdown restrictions seem to be slowing down VTubers are still on the rise. Japanese culture is being embraced by western countries now more than ever with anime and manga becoming an integral part of youth entertainment. With all this talk of the metaverse, NFT’s and the movement of our intellectual property onto the web, who is to say that VTubers won’t become the future of streaming content.
