A VTuber, or virtual YouTuber, is an online entertainer who appears through an animated 2D or 3D avatar instead of their real face, usually playing a persona in videos or livestreams. The trend took off after kizuna ai introduced herself as the first virtual YouTuber, and it now spans many platforms beyond youtube. Related names include VSinger for music-focused creators and VUP in China, while PNGTubers use simple static images instead of rigged models.
