Ah, Gura. The tiny shark girl with a massive fanbase! Watching her streams feels like catching up with a little sister who happens to be outrageously talented. She’s playful, hilarious, and her singing? Pure magic. I still hum her covers while doing the dishes!

Oh, and her catchphrase? “A,” with that cute little shark laugh, always leaves me in stitches. If you’re a newbie to the VTuber scene or a seasoned viewer, Gura’s charm is undeniable.

Ironmouseis the Popular VTuber equivalent of sunshine after a storm. Her streams are chaotic in the best way possible, blending humor, talent, and vulnerability. I’ve cried laughing during her karaoke streams, and I’ve cried crying during her heartfelt chats. She’s just that good.

Fun Fact: Ironmouse insane stamina—did you know she once did a record-breaking subathon that lasted over a month? Pure madness! I can’t even imagine how much energy that takes, but she does it with grace.

Whenever I watch Shylily, it feels like I’m on a cozy virtual beach. She’s an orca Popular VTuber with the perfect chill and cheeky humor blend. Her giggles are so contagious that they’ve turned even my grumpiest days around.
I feel like I’m drifting into calm waters whenever she goes live. From her sweet giggles to her casual gaming style, Shylily is the perfect mix of relaxing and entertaining. If you’ve never watched her, it’s like taking a warm bath after a stressful day.

Fun Fact: Lily often jokes about her “orca blubber,” and it’s become a running gag in her streams. Don’t be surprised if you start calling her “the ultimate cuddle buddy!”

Mori Calliope isn’t just a Popular VTuber; she’s an artist, a musician, and a total force of nature. Her rap tracks are so good that I’ve added them to my workout playlist (yes, I try to channel Calli’s cool vibes while pretending I enjoy cardio).
She’s a powerhouse in the music scene, and she’s so involved with her fans, which makes her streams extra special. And, fun fact: her fans lovingly call her "Calli"—and I have to say, it just fits. If you haven’t heard her music, do yourself a favor and check it out.

Fun Fact: Calli refers to her fans as “Dead Beats,” and her streams often feel like hanging out with the coolest goth kid at school—but she’s way nicer.

Vox Akuma has a voice that could melt butter—and trust me, it’s as addictive as it sounds. Whether he’s playing games, telling ghost stories, or casually flirting with his fans, Vox’s streams are pure entertainment.
 He’s one of those VTubers who can turn even the simplest story into something epic, and his streams are always a mix of suspense, humor, and heart. And when Vox does his ASMR streams? Let me tell you, they’re not to be missed. Every moment with Vox is an experience—so grab some popcorn and enjoy the show.

Fun Fact: Vox once read fanfiction about himself on stream, and it was equal parts hilarious and endearing. If that doesn’t scream “VTuber legend,” I don’t know what does.

Bao’sstreams feel like a mix of a fantasy concert and a bestie hangout. Her ethereal singing will take your breath away, but her down-to-earth humor keeps you coming back. She’s the type of VTuber who makes you laugh mid-tear during her heartfelt covers.
Baois like a breath of fresh ocean air. Her singing is divine, and her relaxed, down-to-earth vibe makes every stream feel like you’re hanging out with an old friend. I love how she balances her incredible talent with such a humble, genuine presence. 

Fun Fact: Bao loves dropping random, hilariously awkward facts about herself mid-stream. Once, she admitted to eating an entire box of cookies during a gaming session. Relatable, right?

Kson is the friend who’s always up for a wild adventure. Her unfiltered personality makes every stream feel unpredictable and unforgettable. Plus, her cooking streams? Hilariously chaotic but oddly inspiring—I’ve tried a recipe or two, with mixed results.
Kson is the type of VTuber who does whatever she wants, and honestly, I admire her so much for that. She’s a trailblazer in the space, unfiltered and unapologetic. Whether she’s cooking up a storm (yes, Kson loves to cook on stream) or playing a game while cracking jokes, her streams feel like you’re spending time with a good friend who just happens to have no filter—and that’s what makes her so fun.

Fun Fact: Kson loves motorcycles and often incorporates her biker aesthetic into her streams. Watching her ride into the VTuber scene is as thrilling as it sounds!

Snuffy’s streams are like a cozy campfire chat—if the campfire included video games, funny stories, and the occasional chaotic moment. Her raccoon-inspired avatar perfectly matches her playful, slightly mischievous energy.
Snuffy is everything I love about VTubers—wholesome, chaotic, and always ready to make me laugh. Her streams have this perfect balance of cozy vibes and hilarious unpredictability. Seriously, I’ve found myself laughing out loud at her antics more times than I can count. If you’re in the mood for something lighthearted, Snuffy’s your go-to.

Fun Fact: Snuffy once decorated her gaming setup with so many fairy lights, her fans joked she was creating her own VTuber galaxy. Honestly? It looked magical.

If energy were a person (or a VTuber), it’d be Hakos Baelz. Her streams are non-stop fun, with a side of randomness that keeps you guessing. Watching her feels like riding a rollercoaster—but without the nausea. Hakos Baelz is the definition of “chaotic energy” in the best possible way. She’s constantly surprising her fans with new, exciting content, and you never know what’s coming next when you tune into one of her streams. One thing’s for sure—Baelz keeps things interesting! Whether she’s being adorable or hilariously mischievous, you’re guaranteed to have a good time.

Fun Fact: Despite her chaotic and high-energy personality, she’s surprisingly terrified of horror games! It’s hilariously ironic, considering her self-proclaimed title as the “Rat of Chaos.” Watching her scream and panic through a spooky game is pure comedy gold, and her fans absolutely love it. It’s a perfect reminder that even chaos incarnate has their kryptonite! 🐭✨
