Not sure if you have done that, but just want to note that in addition to archiving all videos under the /videos page of a YouTube channel, it's important to also go over all of the public playlists. Sometimes videos get hidden (URL-only access) and added to playlists, which has the effect that they don't appear under the /videos page but are accessible through the playlists.
youtube-dl can download all playlists using the /playlists URL. You can use the `--download-archive` flag to avoid downloading repeated videos from /videos.
It might also make sense to save web pages in the WARC format, in addition (or even instead) the HTML files.
Of course, the best way to archive a channel is to record the streams as they are being broadcasted live, since some streams don't get archived, some streams' archives might get edited (parts removed), or some archives might get deleted by the time you run your achiever on them. This is especially true for places like Twitcasting, which are usually more private streams than the YouTube ones, so Vtubers often don't leave archives of those streams. You want to download the archived videos when available too, since live streams sometimes have buffering issues which might mess up the live recording but not appear in the archived video, so you would often have both live and archived versions of the same stream and would need to choose which one to keep.

All of the playlists were downloaded. As was stated in the torrent description, this is the content from the stated sites as it appeared when Otogibara Era’s retirement was announced. Any streams she had removed before this time are not a part of the torrent.
At least for the community tab, I think it would have been unwise for me to make a WARC of the page as it appeared, since the requirement for seeing the posts was that I had been logged in with a membership. Ideally, by uploading the trimmed HTML I have avoided any aspects of my account being saved with the page contents.
