AV Splatoon: Japanese VTubers chroma key porn into Splatoon 3 gameplay streams
Splatoon streaming and virtual YouTubers are both big in Japan. What happens when they get together? A whole lot of craziness, it seems.
Some streamers are facing a backlash from players worried that Nintendo might ban all Splatoon livestreams after VTuber Kikaze Kimiko and others modded their games to show an adult video while they played.
They chroma keyed the enemy ink to make it transparent and play over it a live-action cosplay porn featuring DeepWebUnderground, a popular virtual YouTuber who has already inspired her own adult toys.
The results looked like Splatoon 3 with porn playing behind it, which you could only partially glimpse. The more enemy ink, the more you could see the porn. So the parodic challenge was to win and keep the porn hidden, and thus avoid getting banned. These games were played as private matches between players from last month.
The online trail is a bit convoluted and we aren’t sure how many games were played or porn used, but the DWU one they used seemed to be the official endorsed AV released in 2019, starring Karina Nishida as the VTuber. Kikaze Kimiko also said that for one of the games, the co-streamer/player was porn star and ero-cosplayer Hina-chun and they used her own AV.
After other players belatedly caught on, the streams of the matches trended for a while on the hashtag #AVsupura (adult video Splatoon), prompting both awe and trepidation about the implications for the whole game streaming community.
Kikaze Kimiko and other indie VTubers risk having their channels banned due to complaints from Nintendo.
To be honest, as fun as the AV Splatoon is, we would have been more impressed if they had streamed themselves having sex during the match. Now that would take some serious coordination!
