About
Daten Route is a series of animation memes and fan art based on an animation by Channel in which Ame-chan (aka KAngel, a streamer from the video game Needy Streamer Overload) dances to the song "Angel Yamu" by Aiobahn to increase her follower account, her outfit changing to become more revealing as she dances, which, in turn, increases her follower account exponentially. The meme was popularized on YouTube and TikTok throughout July 2024, inspiring animators to recreate the animation, replacing KAngel with other characters. It also inspired fan art referencing the video.
Origin
On July 6th, 2024, an animator known as Channel posted an animation to X[1] and YouTube[2][3] as both a short and long-form video, garnering over 263,000 likes on the former, 2.2 million on the short and 1.3 million on the long-form video in two weeks (long-form video shown below).
In the video, Ame-chan, aka KAngel, the protagonist of the Steam[4] video game Needy Streamer Overload, in which you must help a streamer become famous, dances to the song "Angel Yamu" by artist Aiobahn. As the video goes on, KAngel is seen purchasing and wearing increasingly revealing outfits, which causes her following to rise but her "mental darkness" and "stress" levels to rise and her "affection" level to fall.
Spread
The video inspired numerous works of fan art and recreations of the animation throughout July 2024. For example, on July 7th and 8th, X[5][6] users @pahurino and @ma3kamea posted drawings of KAngel wearing outfits from the animation, attempting to cover herself, garnering over 11,000 and 2,100 likes, respectively, in two weeks (shown below, left and right).
