Personality: A Canine Charm 🐶❤️

Korone's personality is often compared to that of an actual dog, and it's easy to see why. She's known for her playful and affectionate behavior, often kissing her fellow Hololive members for no apparent reason 😘💕. Her infectious high-pitched laugh, which some liken to the cry of a screeching seagull 🦢, is a signature part of her charm.

One of the most heartwarming aspects of Korone's personality is her loyalty, especially to her close friend, Nekomata Okayu. The two form a pair affectionately known as "OkaKoro" 👭💖. Their bond is so strong that Okayu didn't mind Korone's antics, like playfully massaging her breasts during a sleepover 💆‍♀️🌙. Their relationship, though playful, carries a maternal undertone.

Korone's interests are just as unique as her personality. She has a fondness for retro games, particularly those that are niche or even poorly-made 🎮😂. She finds amusement in the absurdity of these games and often bursts into laughter while playing them.

However, it's worth noting that Korone has a darker side 😈. At times, she can be nonchalantly terrifying. She once revealed that she had searched for torture and execution methods in her mobile browser history 🔪📱, laughed gleefully while using a chainsaw in Doom 🔗, and remained unfazed by gruesome scenes in Heavy Rain 💧. Her unique style of psychopathy, characterized by a childish demeanor, suggests she might not fully comprehend the physical pain she inflicts on others.

Korone also has a penchant for splatterhouse-style horror, referencing movies like "Human Centipede" and "Saw" as her preferences. Ironically, during her playthroughs of "Tsugu no Hi" games, she would scream at every on-screen event, even when nothing scary was happening 🙀👻. This contrast between her cute and scary sides has only added to her appeal among her fanbase.

In a more serious light, Korone has shared her struggles with confidence during her Roomania 203 playthrough. She often measures her worth based on others' actions, leading her to criticize herself needlessly 😔📉. Her time in Hololive seems to be helping her overcome these challenges.

Greeting: Yubi! Yubi! 🖐️🖐️

Korone is well-known for her unique greeting, "Yubi! Yubi!" This greeting originated from her desire to have something distinct when addressing her viewers. During her early days with Hololive Gamers, she humorously toyed with the idea of asking her viewers for their fingers, to which they would respond with "Yubi! Yubi!"—"Yubi" being the Japanese word for finger.

While she doesn't use her regular greeting as often now, she still enjoys playfully incorporating other members' greetings and catchphrases into her streams and collaborations. Her battle cry when playing games is a spirited "Orayo!" 🎮🗯️

Appearance: Dog-Eared Delight 🐕💕

Korone's appearance perfectly complements her canine persona. She sports medium-length light brown hair with charming braided pigtails and, of course, adorable dog ears 🐾. Her brown eyes sparkle with mischief and playfulness.

Journey in Hololive: A Unique Introduction 🌟

Korone's introduction to Hololive was unique in itself. She wasn't discovered through the traditional audition process; instead, she was recommended by her close friend Nekomata Okayu, who had successfully auditioned for Hololive Gamers. This unconventional entry into the world of VTubing foreshadowed the unique path Korone would follow.

She was officially announced on March 22, 2019, and her YouTube channel was created on March 25, 2019. Her debut stream took place on April 13, 2019, though she had appeared on other members' streams even before her official debut. Her first stream was notable for its difficulties, as she faced technical issues and had a cold that affected her voice 🤒🖥️. Her fellow Hololive Gamers members came to her aid, showcasing the camaraderie within the group.

Korone's debut left an impression on Hololive, prompting improved guidelines for future member debut streams. Over time, she reached various milestones, including debuting her 3D model on September 14, 2019, and her second 2D costume on December 26, 2019 🎉👗.

In 2020, she continued to grow her fanbase, reaching 500,000 subscribers in July and becoming the first Hololive Gamers member to reach 1,000,000 subscribers in November 📈🎊.

2021 and Beyond: Achievements and Adventures 🚀

Korone's journey continued to flourish in 2021. On April 13, she debuted her first original song, "SAIKYO TENSAI WANDERFUL WORLD of KORONE." By May 10, she reached 1,500,000 YouTube subscribers, making her the first Hololive Gamers member to achieve this milestone and the second Hololive member overall.

In July 2021, Korone faced health challenges related to stress, leading to a temporary break from streaming 😓🏥. Fortunately, she returned in December, much to the relief of her fans.

2022 saw even more exciting developments. In April, she unveiled her new Live2D model, transforming into her "furball" dog form 🐶💫. Additionally, she debuted her second original song, "Doggy god's street." In June, she became an ambassador for Sega, collaborating with the franchise for its 31st anniversary 🎮🦔.

2023: Continued Growth and Creativity 🌱🎨

Korone's journey continues into 2023 with more surprises. In March, during Hololive 4th fes. "Our Bright Parade" DAY2, she unveiled her new 3D idol costume 💃✨. Later, in June, she reached the impressive milestone of 2 million YouTube subscribers 🎉🎈.

Most recently, on July 7, she debuted her sixth 2D costume, drawing inspiration from Alice from "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" 🐇🎩. This new outfit showcases her creativity and dedication to delighting her fans.

Inugami Korone's journey in the world of VTubing has been nothing short of remarkable. From her playful and endearing personality to her unique milestones and collaborations, she has left an indelible mark on the VTuber community. As fans, we can't wait to see where her adventures take her next.
