Criticism continues towards the sensual miniatures of Pan Piano


the japanese portal Yutura shared an article noting that the popular pianist YouTuber “Piano bread” is, apparently, in decline. According to the newsroom, “Pan Piano” has resorted to inserting erotic thumbnails into its videos, which makes them the most popular. However, only these videos get many views, while the rest of their content goes unnoticed.

«Extreme YouTube video thumbnails of popular pianist YouTuber “Pan Piano,” who has over 3.53 million subscribers to date, have become a topic of interest. “Pan Piano” is a pianist YouTuber originally from Taiwan who not only plays the piano in her videos, but also cosplays as one of the female characters from the play the song is from. Many of her cosplay outfits are of the erotic type, so she exposes a lot of skin during her performance.».

«However, critics have emerged pointing out that the thumbnails of his videos have become “radical”. In the “ゆこぴ 強風オールバック Kyoufuu All Back (ピアノ)” video released on June 10, “Pan Piano” appears completely nude and sits in front of the camera, hiding her crotch behind a school bag. In case you’re wondering, this is a reference to the song’s original music video, where a girl appears playing the flute in a school uniform.».

  • Original video:

«As expected, this video became a resounding success, adding more than a million views in just two days, but comments began to emerge on social networks criticizing the decision of “Pan Piano” to promote itself in this way. Many criticisms of this fact and the possibility that the “Pan Piano” channel will be closed due to multiple reports have become quite popular on social networks, especially Twitter.».

«Perhaps it is unnecessary to explain it, but it is evident that “Pan Piano” is only completely naked in the thumbnail, but not in the video as such. But, what is it that motivates “Pan Piano” to resort to this type of clickbait? Last month he capitalized on the popularity of “Oshi no Ko” and posted a video of his rendition of the popular opening theme song “Idol.” This video also featured a fully nude “dangerous thumbnail” in part of Ai Hoshino’s outfit, and the video has over 4.4 million views. The feedback from the audience is tremendously positive, and while he is shown changing at the beginning of the video, he is never specifically shown as being in the video thumbnail.».

«Is there any reason for “Pan Piano” to resort to this? Thanks to tools external to YouTube, it is possible to obtain an analysis of the number of reproductions accumulated by the videos of “Pan Piano” during each month. We can realize that his greatest success began at the beginning of 2020, but to date his reproduction numbers have been falling terribly.».

«In fact, it should be noted that not even at its best (early 2020) “Pan Piano” resorted to this type of “clickbait thumbnails”. So, he’s betting on this technique because he knows his numbers are dropping noticeably. Sure, the videos with the cheeky thumbnails rack up millions of views in a short time, but most of her other videos barely get over the 200,000 mark. How long can you use this technique before your audience gets bored?».
