Third-generation VTuber Awayuki Kokorone's fans know her as a prim, proper, and graceful idol. Though she has considerably less fans compared to other VTubers in the Live-On agency, Awayuki's loyal following supports her every step of the way. One night, Awayuki forgets to turn her livestream off—a blunder that changes the trajectory of her online career forever. Contrary to her usual angelic persona, her genuine brutish personality is exposed to more than ten thousand people who tuned in. Awayuki reveals that she is nothing more than a severe alcoholic who spouts profanities nonstop, constantly viewing her fellow VTubers with lustful admiration. However, instead of being reprimanded by her agency, Awayuki receives praise: her unhinged, disorderly conduct was Live-On's actual expectation of her. Now having her big break and permission to stream without holding anything back, the once-unpopular VTuber begins her rise to stardom. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

I came into Vtuber legend with very little knowledge and frankly any interest in vtubers. I always saw them as weird and something for degenerates, but after watching this show I realised how narrow minded I’d been and how Vtubers are just like any other entertainment source. In fact, they can often resonate with you in ways normal content creators couldn’t. I fell in love with Awayuki from the first episode and this was just nonstop fun. It’s irreverent, hilarious, unapologetically gay af, and wholesome. I really could not ask for more out of this show. One of the biggest surprises of the season forme. Vtuber legend has a few things that make it a great watch. Firstly, Awayuki is a riot. While she plays things up for her viewers, she is genuinely an amazing character who you can’t help but root for after learning all the adversity she’s had to overcome to get in a position to stream for a living. She brings an authenticity to her streams that really make the show. Yea, the strozero product placement can be a little over the top at times, but generally I think seeing her get drunk and being herself and vulnerable with her fans was a fun experience. The other big thing for me is Awayuki’s relationship with her other vtubers. This is the best part of the show and I died laughing on several occasions seeing the collab streams. The story also doesn’t stray away from being unapologetically Yuri which is another big plus. Awayuki and a couple characters have some obvious romantic tension and I’m not just talking your usual bait confession, but legitimate feelings that characters talk about openly. Things definitely go hard on the 18+ side with sex toy references and other degenerate stuff, but it’s not like goonbait, it’s just lesbians being horny and I found that refreshing. Girls get horny too and there’s nothing wrong with talking about it! The skits and collab streams get increasingly unhinged as the season progresses, but I thoroughly enjoyed them all. The vtubers all have really unique personalities and diverse streaming styles just like irl so there’s someone and something for everyone in this one. Vtuber Legend manages to keep you feeling very immersed thanks to the fact the characters are portrayed as being in their vtuber outfits the whole time, so it’s like you’re in the computer with them while they’re streaming if that makes sense. It’s done in an effort to preserve the feeling that they’re real people not just personas. It definitely hit for me. I felt myself wishing that Awayuki was real on more than one occasion throughout this. The amount of money I’d give her would be astonishing.. Vden is very much an otaku culture show. There’s a tons of references to other aspects of otaku culture, anime, visual novels and other media. But it’s also a series that people who don’t even necessarily like vtubers can get into. Despite having almost no working knowledge of vtubers this was one of my favourite shows of the year and I’ll miss it! Vden gets a very easy 10/10
Note: I’m not into Vtuber culture, but I can recognize and understand some things about it mainly because they are so popular it’s basically impossible to escape them if you’re into otaku culture as they pretty much are a part of it, so I’m not going to be biased for it. This anime is an advertisement for the Strong Zero beer- uh, I mean, it’s about a Vtuber breaking character and getting popular because of it as the title says. I'm surprised no one pointed out inside the show the little comments that are in the streams, because this show follows how Vtubers work, they evendid their own live2D models of the characters for the show and use them from time to time where they could simply use regular animation all the time. While it also shows them outside of streamings, they usually don't change from how they look in their avatars, I could be cynical and say that it is to keep the illusion that Vtubers are still their personas outside of streams or that the studio was lazy and couldn't bother doing designs for how they should really look, but it is pretty obviously none of those, it’s because the show isn't focused on that, this isn't a show that has Vtubers on it, it’s a show about the Vtubers. This show is pretty silly, it’s a complete slice of life show where you don't have to expect a plot, the characters can change a little in their relationships but it never goes to a point where you'll miss much, as it is basically a collection of streams which I guess most if not all are based on streams made by actual Vtubers and you'll probably see some characters and say that they remind you of some Vtuber you know. It’s also one of those anime where the comedy can vary a lot in quality, but it will never reach a point where you will be laughing a lot from them, if you understand the culture you will surely be able to enjoy it more, because the moments that landed the most for me was stuff like in that episode where they shouted "MAKOTO" and then showed the "nice boat", or the episode where they were playing an online card game where the studio even made an entire small animation for Rias Gremory and references to other TNK anime which I watched and loved, I mean, TNK animating Rias Gremory in the year 2015+9? I didn't even remember the last time they animated her, while other jokes are as bad as the adult baby fetish ones which I can only guess is one of the fetishes the author has as it had two episodes on it. If for some weird reason you were expecting something about the "dark side" of vtubing or anything of the sort here, then you aren't watching the right anime, there are some darker moments like Awayuki being forced to drink to keep capitalizing on her new drunk persona or when they doxed her, but those are played as comedy sketches that don't impact the characters or the setting much. I can't understand why Vtubers are so popular, if anything they remind me that when I was like 12 there were some YouTubers that would do Let’s Play videos that my classmates would talk about, I never got into those because 1) I wasn't interested in that 2) I didn't have Wi-Fi back then, so watching things on YouTube was pretty difficult, so I wouldn't be able to do it even if I was interested. The only difference I can see from Vtubers to Let’s Players is that these are behind cute anime girl avatars, and it's not like I didn't try to watch things from them, I remember when I tried watching one of those Vtubers stream, I watched it for like 10 minutes or so, and while I guess it wasn't so bad, I just cannot possibly get what would be so interesting about watching it for hours to get all the popularity they have right now. If anything I'm surprised this anime isn't more popular given it’s about Vtubers, something extremely popular nowadays to the point of dominating the Comiket just behind a plague like Blue Archive, but this show doesn't even get much fanart, I guess it would be because Vtuber fans aren't even interested in anime or they could just watch their Vtuber instead of watching an anime about completely original Vtuber personas, or maybe the overlap of fanbases just isn't as strong as one would think, as Vtubers are much more similar to watching any other streamer than watching anime. If anything, this show is about what Vtubers can only dream to be, actual anime girls. It's not like I could expect TNK to do this anime, they are one of the only studios that can constantly put out good ecchi anime and they don't do many works per year despite not having impressive animation or anything, so I can just wonder why they chose a light novel about Vtubers to adapt it, I could be disappointed on it as there are other ecchi shows that aired alongside this one like 2.5 getting censored, however, the reason why I'm not really disappointed is because you can see that they really were having fun doing this show, it surely won't change your opinions about Vtubers but you can see how much they appreciate the culture and the last episode is pretty much a testament to that. Thank you for reading.
Like 'My Deer Friend Nokotan,' it is one of those shows that you will appreciate if you get the references. But if not, it depends on you liking the VTuber main character. The premise is simple. Kokorone Awayuki was a struggling VTuber. She quit the job that she hates in order to be a VTuber, but it looks like being one ain't no different. For three months, she wasn't making any progress. Until one day, she forgot to stop streaming. So from the demure persona she was projecting, she got drunk and the world saw her real personality, someone who is unhinged. And the restis the story of this anime. It's a hit or miss, and I am scoring this low because it's more often than not a miss as far as I'm concerned. There's really no plot to talk about. This is just random VTubers doing their own thing that may or may not be funny. Some episodes are a bit enjoyable but more often than not, it is too random that the main draw is the banter. Perhaps you need some knowledge of Japanese to appreciate this, as well as being into VTuber culture. It's not something that invites those not knowledgeable of VTubers to watch real VTubers. It assumes that you already like them. For people in the latter case, they would likely score this high, but for most people, this would be a turd. If you cannot follow the references, this show will be mainly carried by the drunk personality of Awayuki, named Shuwa. It was fun at the beginning, but it quickly got old. It's also a season-long commercial for Strong Zero, which might annoy some. Another thing going for it is that it reflects current otaku culture with all the new terms associated with it. This may interest some but I doubt it's enough to recommend this. NOTA BENE: A grade of 3 out of 10 means that I did not enjoy watching this anime despite being either well-regarded or at least popular, or perhaps I happened to rank them below my 4's.
A love letter to the Vtuber industry, even for those outside the industry, like me. The first chapter is the key because it shows the type of humor that it will handle, which is one heavily based on sexual humor and jokes. Basically, the question is whether the anime could stay fresh with humor that gets old too quickly. Still, the subsequent chapters show you that sexual humor is only one weapon in its arsenal. It knows how to balance it very well with other resources such as tsukkomi humor, serious moments, and references to franchises or other Vtubers. The anime puts all its weight onthe protagonist, who has to lead all the scenes and sketches, whether in a main role or in a more secondary role. The idea of such a varied cast with different personalities helps our protagonist to be able to play many roles, not just the comedic one. Vtuber Nandaga is an anime that doesn't stand out in its animation, but it's still not afraid to be proactive. It constantly uses different types of animation and camera framing. It's not afraid to experiment with various animation styles within a single episode. There are a couple of ideas that feel very fresh, like the fairy tale-style animation or the vertical framing to simulate the view from a cell phone. The negative aspect to review is the issue that a person outside the world of Vtubers or streams in general, can feel overwhelmed with the scenes of the interaction between the chat and the Vtuber. Many of the jokes are heavily recharged in the chat of the streams. Since they move too fast, you may have to pause if you want to know what they are saying or simply ignore it and miss a small, big part of the experience. Personally, the connection I made with Awayuki Kokorone is one that I will take beyond this season. It made me enter a comfort zone that is too big. This anime has definitely become one of my safe places. Between all the jokes, sketches, and songs, I feel like when I'm going through a bad time, I can always tune into an Awayuki Kokorone stream.

Make no mistake, this show is not the "cute girls doing cute things" moe genre show with an otaku culture backing other reviewers seem to be chalking it up as. Vtuber Nandaga is an (albeit easy-going) Girl's love harem show which documents the writers developing fetishes in gruesome and delicious detail. If you are titillated or fascinated by adult baby-mother roleplay or feet (more on that later), you will likely get a little bit more out of this show than the average viewer. Just for the record, I'm not into that stuff (I'm normal! 😅), but the sheer presence of perversion is what gets megoing. When first watching this show, I compared it most closely to Mahou Shoujo ni Akogarete, the excellent sadomasochistic Yuri show starring a fangirl-turned dominatrix from a few seasons back, but this one undoubtedly plays the fetish-bait a little bit closer to the vest. Yes, the meat and potatoes of this show is a funny but at-times meandering comedy about a downtrodden vtuber finding new success after passing out drunk on stream, inventing for herself a new, more frank and vulgar persona. The novelty and personality of the main character, Awayuki (alter ego: Shuwa-chan) drives the show for the first few episodes, and it has a lot of legs, guided by well-cast voice acting from Sakura Ayane (if you don't know her, she's in like everything. She's Ochaco from MHA and the main girl from Charlotte). After the amazement at the premise (which is surely why you started watching in the first place) starts to wear off, a cast of supporting characters are introduced, at first falling into the trite archetypes of every anime from the last 20 years. Each character gets their very own focus episode, and while the referential style of comedy always elicits a chortle, it’s not really the type to get a lot of belly laughs. The show takes a turn around episode 5, however, when the next generation of Vtubers debut. This seems to be around the time in the light novels when Nanato Nana really hit her stride (and put her hand firmly down her pants). Much of the otaku referential humor in this episode is traded in for referential fetish humor (an exciting development, I know). One of the characters is a girl so obsessed with the main character, her greatest wish is to have sex the woman's uvula. Another is a 30-year-old woman who simply insists she is a baby, and that every chatter is her mother. From this point in the story, even the originally "straight" characters take some turns, with one girl who originally filled the "innocent" role forcibly dressing up our heroine as a baby come episode 6. Despite this, the show is determined to never be bogged down by it's own perversion, and keeps a brisk pace through these portions. Editing is a strong point for this show, and while it's not anything revolutionary, it has a strong enough style and direction to keep the viewer well engaged. The Editing also provides for the aforementioned foot-based fanservice (foot service?). I'm not sure when it started, but it seems that Vtubers have become a bastion for foot fetishists of all stripes. Maybe it's something about the fact that it's a relatively innocuous inclusion to the untrained eye, but huge-name EN-Vtubers like Gawr Gura and Amelia Watson (rip) had live 2d bare feet models added to their arsenal around a year ago, and regularly "put their feet up" during more casual streams. Vtuber Nandaga keeps this tradition alive, and the only real eye-candy the show has to offer is in the form of foot close ups. The show's art is at times stiff and uninspired, but I honestly don't blame it. While the pastels are nothing new, it's not like this show is out to change your life. Further, I was perhaps more fascinated by how they kept this show to a reasonable budget. Almost every game the characters play is fully licensed, and further, every ED is a karaoke version of a real song (including the excellent "Odoru Akachan Ningen" from welcome to the N.H.K.). The licensing budget is huge for what is obviously not a huge studio show, and it shows from time to time in the poor keying. A lot of this is made up for by the use of live2d for the streaming portions of the show, with each model only running about a grand each. I found this approach to cost cutting a pretty interesting and resourceful. Overall, this show is a good watch if you are deep enough into Vtubing, otaku, or fetish culture. Again, it breaks no new ground, but I had a great time watching it, and it rarely feels like all that much of a slog.
Personally, I feel like the biggest criticism I see for this show, being its plot/story, is hardly an issue in the grand scheme of it all. Sure, there's not a lot going on- each episode (if I recall correctly) features a stream with Awayuki, whether it's one of her own or her collaborating with other Live-On members. But those make for a comedic, lighthearted viewing experience to take the viewer along her journey as a VTuber. While it won't get overly profound, the show does hit home on its big themes of self-acceptance, and surrounding yourself with friends who will be there for you everystep of the way. It's a very heartwarming watch, with beautiful animation and adorable characters. I did find it genuinely very funny, but I also understand not everyone shares the same sense of humor, so take that as you will. If you have even the slightest interest in VTubers, and want an easygoing, silly anime to watch, then give it a try. It's cute!

this is a hidden gem ....... absolutely crazy and extremely heartwarming at the same time ...... though some episodes towards the end are lackluster, the ending makes up for all of them . this anime made me laugh the most this season - the characters are all freaks,yuri jokes and references to many types of media are scattered all around and the chemistry between all the characters make this anime so great . it depicts the true meaning of coming to terms with yourself . if you people consider watching it don't expect high level animation or crazy action scenes as this anime requires amature mentality to watch which is scarce nowadays . try out the first 3 episodes and then if you feel like continuing go ahead . but i mention again that this anime is not for everyone to watch .......proceed with precaution . my personal ratings overall is 9 out of 10. HAPPY VEIWING EXPERIENCE
I understand a lot of VTubing culture and I have a few friends who do this as well. This show depicts a lot of things that are true within the space. After watching it all, I have more respect for the people who do it and my friends who try their hardest to stream. This is suppose to be a review so let’s start that now. This might be one of my favorites this whole year. I like how they actually use Live2D models (VTuber Models) in some episodes which gave it a genuine feel of watching someone live. Despite being an anime, it felt realisticwatching and I’m learning more about the VTubing culture. In the last episode the concert they held felt like an actual VTuber concert too. (I’ve seen some and honestly might be better than some) It was cute, funny, and wholesome but the production and what this show is felt real because it showed aspects of what VTubing actually is. It’s not 100% accurate but I can tell they actually took the time to learn and tried to give us somewhat a real feel to it. If you do know what VTubing is I’d recommend watching it and if you do, you’re going to love this and have more love for your oshis. Also, for the people who don’t, I hope you enjoy this and start watching VTubers in the future!
I don't really understand Vtuber culture so I can't judge accurately because this is a really new show in anime. But I will judge logically according to my perspective. So from the storyline telling about a Vtuber who became very famous because of his unintentional negligence but was liked by his fans and colleagues, basically it only tells about his daily life along with his professional activities which are spiced up with sexual humor that tends more towards shojo ai. It takes patience to be able to enjoy this anime because you will be faced with a lot of chat interactions between characters and NPCsaka audiences which are sometimes just like a chat panel on social media which is quite difficult to follow because it passes so quickly, especially if we have to translate it into a language that we understand. It will be very troublesome and boring because you have to pause this anime video often in order to understand the storyline. And this should be an anime that tells the real Vtuber culture but I can't see it or distinguish it because there is no difference between the Vtuber character and the real character, the only difference is the presence of 2.5D animated characters, and it doesn't explain the reference for making Vtuber characters whether from the original appearance of the real character or just the imagination of the character creator in the story, and the lack of the appearance of NPCs that are not related to the story are only depicted with markers that are not similar to human appearance, maybe this is just my prejudice that considers it as the uniqueness of this anime's background. So my conclusion for this anime, it is unique in some senses but not impressive enough to make me interested in Vtuber culture, maybe the advantages of this anime are only a place for voice actors to improve their skills by imitating some unique characters in this anime.
I came across this anime while looking for somthing Mindless To put on while I cleaned my room, and GOD IT DIDN'T DISAPPOINT. Vtuber Legend is one of the best Comedy anime I've Watched. It definitely wont appeal to everyone's sense of humour but if you like some Mindless Sex jokes and Raunchy humour your in for a good time. It's been a long time since any anime has managed to make me laugh as much as this one. I also really appreciate an anime that can have an incredibly lewd script and dialouge without shoving unnecessary fanservice in your face. Aside from one very specificscene which gets a pass for context and it's censored anyway. I wont pretend to be a big Vtuber fan but I tune in to a couple every once and a while and I think this anime does a suprisingly good job portraying a streamer. Somthing in fiction thats always bothered me is how you can always tell that whoever wrote the script for a streamer character has never watched a live stream in their life. But you can tell the author of this series is very well versed in Vtuber Culture and does an amazing job at creating natural feeling yet incredibly entertaining conversations between it's main cast of streamers. I definitely think that this is a musr watch for any Vtuber fan or anyone looking for a anime that will make them laugh out loud. Give it 2 Episodes, if the comedy isn't your style then you wont be missing much by dropping it. -SPOILERS AHEAD YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED- I'd also like to point out that this show has a cameo from Rias Gremory from Highschool DxD which caught me so off guard I had to watch the scene 10 times and send it to my girlfreind who questioned how I ever manged to pull.
My evaluation is kinda biased. Because I love GL genre, and I'm a big fan of VTubers, and furthermore I'm alcoholic too. (I really love Becks.) If you have any reason to watch this anime, that's because I assure it can be good gate of watching VTubers! Unlike the other kind of idols, the true value of VTubers comes out whenever they get honesty. Just the case of Awayuki is same, too. When she showed herself more alcoholic and unfiltered self, her stream is more interesting and touching to viewers. The funner streamers feel, the enjoyable the show is, and it's how the VTuber streams work! Iwant to end up this review by quoting my favorite VTuber, Amelia Watson: "I hope you guys also can carve out your own happiness in the world. Find your own slice of happiness. Everybody's success looks different."
I think I speak for a lot of people when I say this anime is maybe among the best representation of VTuber culture. Japanese VTubers in general aren't like regular streamers, especially unlike most western ones. There's a lot of jokes, references and characters which many people think of as weird, so there's no surprise an anime embracing all of those rather unique aspects has an age rating of 16+. But despite all the crude and almost self-deprecating jokes, you can see this anime is a weird but well thought-out love letter to this subculture. VTubers are a way to escape reality and its clear thepeople who made this appreciate them a lot. With all the effort put into making every character act and feel like actual VTubers, from the models to the stream designs and even songs, you see how much they care. It's definitely not for everyone and a lot of people will be put off by some of the more extreme references or jokes, but if you're like me, you'll love it for its weird and sometimes uniquely wholesome moments.
After watching the final episode made me feel like it was a pretty damn good anime overall with some cathartic moments, I surprised myself on how good I thought it was. I was originally set on giving this a 6/10, but after sitting back, I realized that as someone who's never been into VTuber culture, nor watched a single VTuber, the amount of fun I had watching all episodes of this anime made me feel like I owe it to this anime to bump my rating to a 7, maybe even an 8. The humor was good, the personalities of each characters was so vibrant.Each one of them felt unique and offered something different to the table. And while I don't watch VTubers, various media references every now and then I can still understand, especially that episode where they played the multiplayer whodunit game, which I personally relate, as I rode that wave back in 2020 as well with Among Us. Even the sometimes serious side of this anime was a nice icing on the cake. Awayuki and Mashiro's episode was genuinely heartwarming, and so was the final episode. I know how much impact "graduating" VTubers has towards its audience, as I sometimes catch wind of that in my social media feeds every now and then. Production side of things, it was serviceable. Not good, not bad. Oddly enough, while the anime used some 3D especially in the final episode, it didn't feel "out of place" at all, probably owing to the CGI nature of VTubers. I had thought that the idea of VTubers was something I'd never understand. I found the idea of watching a digital avatar play/do something while only seeing the avatar's responses in 2D weird, but now I get it. I probably still wouldn't watch VTubers on my own, as gaming, reading, and watching anime will still always be my top hobbies, and I feel like I grew out of my "watch streamers play games" phase years ago, but if I ever get the pleasure, I probably wouldn't mind watching clips pass by my feed every now and then. As for this anime, if there ever is a Season 2 (though with the way this ended, it feels unlikely, which is sad), you can bet I'll watch it. Overall, I recommend this anime, even as someone who aren't into VTuber culture. You can just think of it as a comedy anime (well it is, but targeted towards those who are into VTubers) where humor is pretty good that you'll understand it even without the complete context. Perhaps you'll miss some references here and there (I have missed a lot), but it won't impact your overall viewing experience, as this is first and foremost a character-driven story about a certain VTuber and its colleagues before it's a story about VTuber culture in general.
Welcome to a light snowfall: This series is, in short, about nothing, unfortunately too much about nothing - I was most pleased by the references to High School DXD and School Days, here and there a good joke or a listenable song. However, every first episode has almost zero story, it must contain an advertisement for StroZero (I probably won't get that out of my head) and there must be a collaboration. It must be said that I'm not angry and I didn't watch the series with complete distaste, it's just that the episodes simply evaporate as quickly as the StroZero bubbles.
The anime started strong and get worst and worst each time kokorone(MC) bring about her interest in alcohol, i mean almost every anime have it but they never highlight it as so much to the point it is getting annoying to watch. The change of mc character after the accident live stream was good, i was expecting more but after that the writer cant think of anything good for her and thus the character stay as it is until the last episode, i even play with my phone while this anime become my background sound but i still aware of the story, showing the anime isreally.. how should i say.. very bad? The dirty joke is fine by me but they didnt deliver it nicely and it become nothing but empty talk, it wasnt funny or anything, what a waste. The animation and design for this anime is great, i have nothing to say about it. All and all, even for someone like me who love watching a group of girls doing their things without romantic genre involve, this one is bad. If you havent watch, please dont waste your time, just go watch other anime, there are tons of good anime out there like Bang Dream! or Idolmaster, Yurucamp, Encouragement of Climb, even the current season anime 'Narenare -Cheer for You!-' is not so bad.
After watching the entire anime I can now give an opinion about it logically. TL;DR: Don't waste your time on this anime. Points time: 1. Story: 1/10 2. Characters: 7/10 3. Art/Animation: 8/10 5. Voice-over: 8/10My reasons why this anime should not have been airing: 1. Story 2. Story 3. Story The first episode was perfect, and because of it, everyone was excited about the anime. However, gradually, the story started to turn into the streams only that Kokorone makes and how Live-On's streamers cooperate with each other to make more fun streams. The story till now feels exciting, right? The problem starts from the second episode when I'm surprised that the anime only talks about streams so there are barely any scenes outside the limits of Kokorone's streams or her friends from the same company, then the anime becomes repetitive in addition to the lack of any goal from watching it because you do not know what Kokorone's goal is or what she wants to achieve? Although the rating based on the numbers I put above should be 6, I will give it 3 because anime should first and foremost be based on a good story.
