HoloLive is one of the agencies that makes sure each of their VTubers are somewhat representing an idol-type personality whether that’s with song and dance, positive advice, fanart, reactions, and gaming.Ĭheck out All Ages of Geek’s VTuber Kasai’s first time reaction to Mori Calliope. VTubers are becoming these idols and help encourage positivity within their entertainment. They are a pop culture embodiment of important lessons and positivity. What’s an idol? In Japan, idols serve as someone who encourages others to work hard for their dreams and thrives on not just their own but other’s success. HoloLive and Idolsīased on Mori Calliope and even her mishaps during her debut it’s no wonder many people look to these VTubers like idols. “It’s okay to make mistakes” – This represents how much of a struggle a first-time stream can be, especially with all the new and evolving VTuber technology. “Be yourself” – A viewer suggested she do on Twitter before the debut. Several words of advice were mentioned during the VTuber’s debut stream such as: Her EP 'Death Beats' became the number one album worldwide on iTunes on 22 October 2020. Her surname Mori is Latin for the verb 'to die', as in such phrases as 'memento mori', although Mori is also a Japanese surname, meaning 'forest'. Especially when the world is still questioning what exactly VTubing is and you’re making a statement/brand for yourself. In Greek mythology, 'Calliope' is the name of a goddess who presides over epic poetry. Doing a stream for several hours, while also exposing yourself to thousands of viewers is nothing easy when it’s your first time. When All Ages of Geek’s VTuber Kasai first experienced Mori Calliope’s Debut stream she appreciated her honesty.

All Ages of Geek Kasai’s Review on Mori Calliope In the end, she’s a gentle-hearted girl whose sweet voice contradicts the morbid things she tends to say, as well as her hardcore vocals. It seems that the lost souls vaporized by the wholesome relationships of VTubers flow through her as well. Because the world’s medical system advanced so dramatically, she became a VTuber to collect souls. She is herself, doesn’t try to “act a part” and interacts with an audience who accepts her for being a VTuber, not just an entertainer. One reason (outside of being on the HoloLive EN team) Mori Calliope is so successful is she does the above. It’s being that character you or a company created and bringing them into our world. VTubing isn’t about being who you are as a person.

Mori Calliope is a VTuber who does the VTubing scene right.
