I definitely don't think Suisei or Fubuki would ever actually do something to a young boy given the chance, but it's always worrying to see. I'm also not as sure Matsuri could be trusted around a young girl, she has violated people's boundaries repeatedly and often.(I'm fighting my inclination to say there's nothing wrong with the idols, vtubers sure are a powerful drug).

I do genuinely think it's because it is so hard to make heads or tails of what's going on in hololive unless you are into it. Like, are you gonna write an expose on several popular vtubers to an audience of boomers that won't get it, or just make another article about Japanese shota porn being sold everywhere? Most people won't bother to research it because they'll be sick of vtuber clips, or they are into it and don't want people to know about the worse aspects of it.
