Because they're the most accessible thanks to MMD and Japan's dedicated model-making community that we steal from. Anime avatars aren't a problem, as they're the core of the community and represent their interests, so if you don't like anime in general, you likely won't get along with many people.

What does it matter what kind of avatar people use?

It might be because anime is just popular and the avatars are highly available to download /edit in unity and blender.

If not anime / cartoon based what would you suggest to us model makers.

As for why i like "to be anime" I like the art style and the wacky stuff you can pull off

[Dizzles]

Its accessibility mostly and people like anime. For accessibility MMD avatars are not only really easy to find and use (stealing or not stealing), but they're easy to edit, upload, and have some of the best details.

Its just all around easier to use and the end results are quality. Like even if you don't like anime you have to be mad to think that the avatars don't look really good.

Oh, you are one of those people.. You whine about anime for no good reason at all. I am not going to try to "convince" you of anything. Anyone who has "many reasons" to hate anime is already a lost cause and probably suck as a person to begin with. Anime is good. Nothing wrong with it or the people who enjoy it and their avatars.

Mmmm I wouldn't say that. There's a lot of terrible anime and a lot of terrible anime fans. Lots of boring trope-y and cliche slice of life waifu bait. And stupid fans eat that crap up which means less innovative and interesting stories on the market. Yeah disliking anime as a whole is just limiting your exposure to good media, but I understand how people can feel a bit distasteful towards it. Plus, there was a study that proved that having an anime avatar makes your opinion 90% less relevant.

Live action suffer exactly the same eith the cliche ever watched twd? Oh no a Zombie out if nowhere will the main Char survive ugh.... ofc so don't whine like a ♥♥♥♥♥ and get a hold of yourself and saying someones opinion matters less is the most arrogant thing I've ever heard in a forum.

Anime (and manga) is the better popular* art as far as the human species is concerned.
The Japanese have won the cultural battle (also, the French and others).


*: popular as in 'not necessarily higher culure'.
