Nyatasha Kotova Nyanners III, better known as Nyanners online is an American VTuber, streamer, Voice actress, and singer. A VTuber is a YouTuber that utilizes an avatar created by a computer rather than their own real face. Although, she started streaming independently but was later enlisted by VShojo, who also have other VTubers like Zentreya, Ironmouse, Froot, and Silvervale in their roster.
Nyanners joined YouTube in 2011 but she didn’t start posting music and gaming videos. She only posted posts related to anime and manga. She only started posting real videos in July 2020 and was hired by VShojo in November of the same year. Nyatasha began posting videos of her playing games like Genshin Impact, Phasmophobia, BloodBorne, Rust, and many more such games. She became popular for videos of her singing such as her covers of Nicki Minaj’s Anaconda and Doja Cat’s Say So.

Why Was Nyatasha Banned By Twitch?
Nyanners who has more than 850,000 followers on Twitch was suddenly banned by Twitch on November 4, 2022. This sudden ban was a huge jolt to both Nyanners and her Twitch followers. There had been no prior information about the ban given to Nyanners.
There was a huge turmoil on Twitch after the ban was imposed on Nyanners. Both her fans and her collaborators of VShojo asked for the repeal of the ban. They also asked Twitch to specify the reason behind the ban on Nyanners.
Even Nyanners herself found out about the ban from the Twitter account named StreamerBans. The account reported the news about the ban. She was also confused and asked for elaboration on the reason behind the ban.
After a few hours of the ban being imposed, Nyanners received the mail citing the reason behind her ban to be her ‘inappropriate attire’ which violated the code of conduct of Twitch.

Unbanning Of Nyanners
The model that the mail cited was used by Nyanners for the special Halloween stream on October 30 and wore a revealing outfit and a lot of her skin could be seen. The internet was confused about how Twitch took an entire week before banning Nyanners and many of the VTubers condemned Nyanners’ ban. The hashtag #FreeNyan was trending on social media.
After a full day of fans demanding the ban to be uplifted, Nyanners was unbanned from Twitch. Nyanners reacted to the news by saying that she would be careful in the future and would not repeat the mistake.
She also expressed that she was sad for the artist who had designed her Halloween avatar and she would sort things out in the future. Nyanners is not the only streamer who had to face bans. Many other streamers like Anny have also received bans for the same reason.
