  1. This is actually wrong. I myself have been watching V-Tubers daily, and I am in the prime of my life, being in my mid to late 20’s. Please have this statistic fixed or I will stop watching V-Tubers, which in turn will not give you guys money. I am a HUGE donator to the V-Tubers, and they will suffer without my contributions to their success.
