** [[WesternAnimation/{{Ratatouille}} Not everyone can be a successful [=VTuber=], but a successful [=VTuber=] can come from anywhere.]] In this story, we have Takashi's father who plays the most successful [=VTuber=] in the nation, through a combination of charm, acting, and knowing what the audience likes. Meanwhile, the mother desperately wants to be a successful [=VTuber=], even if only a little bit, but constantly fails due to lacking in the necessary charms to draw in the right audience and is often thought to be an old man behind the scenes.

The fans she ''does'' get like that about her, and when she tries to do an "ask me anything" in a calmer fashion, she starts to lose subscribers.

** On another side chapter, Takashi utters "GUH!" while doing a DoubleTake at his father's growing pile of requests. It happens to be [[WebAnimation/{{Hololive}} Calliope Mori]]'s CatchPhrase.[[note]]Notable because the translator has commented on videos of Calliope reading the manga.[[/note]]

"Guh" isn't that unique a catchphrase.

* TheLadette: Takashi's mother tries to muscle in on her husband's territory but her behavior, especially when riled up, perpetuates an InUniverse RunningGag that she's actually a GuyInRealLife. It doesn't help that she has trouble shaking off her tomboyish background, and to rub salt in the wound, she fares a lot better at navigating a normal dating sim compared to an otome game.

* BecomingTheMask: After accusing his father of being so into his [=VTuber=] personality that it's leaking into his real-life behavior, it's pointed out that Takashi himself is starting to do the same. The chapter even ends with the HeWhoFightsMonsters quote to drive the point home.

** In a side chapter where Takashi's father spies on him reluctantly trying out his new [=VTuber=] avatar, the final panel bears close resemblance to the famed "Here's Johnny!" scene from ''Film/TheShining''.
** When Takashi's mother is, once again, accused of being an old man behind the screen, one of the comments scrolling across her feed reads "[[WesternAnimation/SpongebobSquarepants How many times must we teach you this lesson, old man?]]"

This is a trivia trope, so moving this to the trivia page.


* TechnologyMarchesOn: The manga and setting were written at a time where virtual [=YouTubers=] that used full motion capture like WebAnimation/KizunaAi were in vogue. While they haven't faded out of popularity as of the end of 2020, it's much more common to see less extensive motion capture like [=Live2D=] or [=Home3D=] as popularized by WebAnimation/{{Hololive}} or Creator/{{Nijisanji}} due to the lower barrier to entry.

* CringeComedy: Oh ''HELL YES''. A lot of the funny moments come from how Takashi has to deal with knowing that the idol he's been fawning over is actually a man, and his own father no less.

!!''My Dad's the Queen of All [=VTubers=]!?'' provides examples of the following tropes:

* AwfulTruth: Takashi finding out that the VirtualCelebrity he's been fawning and worshiping turns out to be an old man behind the scenes. Even worse, it's ''his own father.''
* BloodFromTheMouth: PlayedForLaughs, with Takashi frequently vomiting blood as he cringes over the fact that he's been worshiping and fawning over his own dad.
* BrainBleach: Ever since finding out the AwfulTruth, Takashi can only see his father's face when he sees images of Kizuke Yai.
-->'''Takashi:''' "Until that day... When I came to know about [=VTubing=] by chance... I had opened the doors to a world I never knew. The scene has changed before my eyes. ''I can't go back to the time before I knew all of this.''"
* CringeComedy: Oh ''HELL YES''. A lot of the funny moments come from how Takashi has to deal with knowing that the idol he's been fawning over is actually a man, and his own father no less.
* DeconstructiveParody: This manga examines the life of a [=VTuber=] and how they work.
** Since [=VTubers=] are ultimately virtual avatars, there's really no way to tell who the person playing the character really is. And thanks to voice changing technology, it may even be [[{{GIRL}} someone of the opposite gender.]]
** [[WesternAnimation/{{Ratatouille}} Not everyone can be a successful [=VTuber=], but a successful [=VTuber=] can come from anywhere.]] In this story, we have Takashi's father who plays the most successful [=VTuber=] in the nation, through a combination of charm, acting, and knowing what the audience likes. Meanwhile, the mother desperately wants to be a successful [=VTuber=], even if only a little bit, but constantly fails due to lacking in the necessary charms to draw in the right audience and is often thought to be an old man behind the scenes.
** SexSells. There's often an element of {{Fanservice}} in [=VTubers=] (and idol business in general), and tapping into it can be... lucrative.
