Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

I think I've seen some people do things with Live2D models of Touhou Project characters, but that particular AY PEE is famously extremely permissive about derivative works. If you squint, you might count cases where a vtuber version of an existing character is backed by the artist or company who already owns the rights to that character, which is not unheard of.
Other than that, no. VTubers playing characters from existing anime is not a thing that happens much. If anyone's confused why that's the case, consider a context where a someone who isn't a corporate robot might use the term "IP" (as in intellectual so-called property).
