Usada Pekora

Usada Pekora (兎田ぺこら) is a female Japanese Virtual YouTuber associated with hololive as part of its third generation of VTubers under the name of "hololive Fantasy" (ホロライブファンタジー) alongside Uruha Rushia, Shiranui Flare, Shirogane Noel, and Houshou Marine.

Introduction Video
Pekora's introduction.

Personality
Pekora hails from the nation of Pekoland, where she claims she is a member of royalty. While not much is currently known about Pekoland, it is assumed its native denizens are; like Pekora; humans with rabbit-ears and comparatively long lifespans, and that the rabbit-motif apparent in Pekora's fashion and accessories is significant to their culture. In-line with her claims of a royal upbringing, Pekora's personality can be described as somewhat bratty, haughty, immature and surly, but genuinely playful and friendly.

Pekora is infamous for mischief, to the point where other hololive members will instantly become suspicious of any project if they learn that Pekora was involved. While her intended victim is usually Sakura Miko, no one is exempt from her trolling, not even herself. Pekora's fans appropriately display this same kind of attitude and are known to ruthlessly tease her through the chat when the opportunity arises.

Pekora has a distinctive laugh (frequently represented in text as "AH↓ HA↑ HA↑ HA↑") somewhat resembling that of an older female aristocrat, and frequently interjects her sentences with the "-peko" suffix, though she has been known to forget this occasionally.

Background
Pekora was one of the four hololive VTubers first announced on 13 June 2019 as part of the third generation but she and Uruha Rushia were not open for audition.

On 7 July during the hololive karaoke session, her name and Twitter account were officially announced alongside Uruha Rushia.

On 28 May 2019 her Twitter account was opened while her YouTube channel was opened on 3 July. She debuted on YouTube with her introductory stream on 17 July.

2019
On 10 December during a stream she announced that she would get a 3D model, which was later reconfirmed on her Twitter account. Her 3D model was shown during a stream on 14 December, being the third of her generation to get it, after Shirogane Noel and Uruha Rushia.

2020
On 1 January she announced on Twitter that she would debut a new year's 2D costume, which was latter revealed in a stream the same day. This is her second 2D costume overall.

On 24 January along with the other hololive girls up to the third generation, she debuted her 3D idol outfit at hololive's 1st fest Nonstop Story.

Fans

 * Her fanbase is officially called "League of the Hare Alliance" while in Japanese they are called "Usa mimi nashi" (うさ耳無し).

Trivia

 * Pekora's character-model features small highlights in the center of each eye's pupil that resemble the facial profile of a rabbit.
 * After the topic of headphones came up during a stream, Pekora claimed that she can successfully use headphones with both sets of her ears (both the human pair and her rabbit-ears).
 * During a call-in for Shion's 200,000 subscriber celebration, Pekora stated that she doesn't wear underwear and that "Bunny-girls don't wear them". This presumably means that the same applies to all female natives of Pekoland.
 * While Pekora's persona as a VTuber can be described as somewhat bratty, boisterous, immature or sometimes outright antagonistic, several of the members of hololive she works with in real-life have described this as being contradictory to her true, off-stream personality. Personal friends like Sakura Miko have described her as being extremely easy to get along with, respectful and even somewhat reserved.
