Twitch content creator Ironmouse has lost her spot as the most-watched English-speaking VTuber after fellow streamer Zentreya took the title. Ironmouse has been in the eye of the storm recently, after she quit the popular group VShojo along with other female Twitch VTubers.
Ironmouse is one of the most popular streamers in the VTuber community. In 2024, she became the most-subscribed Twitch channel in history. Her record was eventually broken, but Ironmouse made history as the first female VTuber to achieve this. 2025 has been a more tumultuous year for the streamer, though. Earlier in July, Ironmouse quit VShojo, a famous VTuber group she co-founded in 2020. She revealed that VShojo owed a large sum of money for her work, but the group was failing to pay. Now, Ironmouse has been dethroned as the most-watched VTuber across platforms.
Twitch Is Cracking Down on Viewbotting
Twitch CEO Dan Clancy provides an update on the streaming service's ongoing battle against third-party tools used to inflate a streamer's view count.
As reported by Streams Charts, Zentreya has become the most-watched English-speaking VTuber of Q2 2025 with 4.72 million hours watched. The spot belonged to Ironmouse in Q1, when she led with 5.37 million hours. In the latest ranking, Ironmouse sits in third place with 4.53 million watch hours on Twitch, slightly behind Hololive EN’s Koseki Bijou with 4.54 million hours on YouTube. Zentreya likely rose to the top thanks to her first subathon in June. She is known for playing popular games live on Twitch, with her channel having over 580,000 followers. It is worth noting that Zentreya was also a founding member of VShojo, but she quit the group in June 2025. Her separation wasn't tied to Ironmouse's situation, though, but she was looking for new opportunities outside VShojo. Regardless, after finding out about the group's debt scandal, Zentraya openly supported Ironmouse and other VTubers.
Zentreya Takes Iroumouse's Spot as Most Watched English-Speaking VTuber
Zentreya has been a very popular VTuber for years, but the streaming world is an ever-competitive one. Whether Ironmouse can reclaim the number one spot remains to be seen. On the other hand, creators often encourage each other in the industry. After the VShojo scandal, Zentreya expressed her support for Ironmouse's Immune Deficiency Foundation. It was recently revealed that Ironmouse's fans raised $1.3 million in donations, even though the charity campaign's goal was $10,000.
The streaming industry constantly sees creators breaking records. Twitch is a particularly competitive platform in various languages as well. The site recently saw Spanish creator Ibai Llanos break the record for most-viewed Twitch stream ever, for example. It will be interesting to see which top streamer makes history next.
