{{eyecatch|In a Nutshell<br>(as of 2024-08)|By default, we do <u>'''not'''</u> add vTuber MVs to AniDB. If the vTuber was a real YouTuber, ie a real "corporeal" person, then that person would be singing in a live action MV, which would not be added to AniDB. If it "became anime" simply because the vTuber is an animated person since they are not corporeal, we do not add the MV by default — we would only add on an exception basis, and we would hold vTuber MVs to a higher bar to qualify as anime for AniDB purposes.}} | |||
AniDB allows music videos ("MVs"), and has a specific anime type called "music video" for this purpose. Anime MVs are allowed; traditionally, song promoters have chartered animation studios to create anime MVs to promote their songs. | AniDB allows music videos ("MVs"), and has a specific anime type called "music video" for this purpose.
