Over the years I've noticed that much of Japanese video content is presented in the format of a dialogue between two anime girl pngs using text to speech voices as opposed to just some guy appearing on camera or narrating whatever the video is about.
Like if you wanted to watch a review of a new monitor, it would be one anime character explaining the pros and cons to another character
Is it a greater cultural preference for anonymity, or are people just more likely to ingest information if it's presented by Touhou characters? Note that I'm not talking about Vtubers here, this trend is much older and covers pretty much all possible video topics
Remember, one of the primary cultural distribution networks of Japanese media to English speakers has been 4chan.
Exactly, a filter is in place which encourages pedophilic content, rather than a general sampling of the culture.
