VShojo VTubers Silvervale and Ironmouse were among the first to respond.
“wtf dude free my cat now #FREENYAN,” Ironmouse tweeted.
Silvervale responded: “Give pink cat back. She didn’t even do anything? #FREENYAN.”
Many others were left confused as to what she did wrong. “What she do? She wasn’t even streaming,” one fan said.
After the initial wave of confusion, Nyanners was able to get a reason for her Twitch ban. According to her, she was banned for “inappropriate attire”.
Her new Vtuber model is the prime suspect here, and likely what she was banned for despite it having been “almost a week” since Nyanners started using the model.
She has since been unbanned from Twitch, and can now make good on her promise of being back to streaming soon.
