Trivia

 * She is often accompanied by her panda-skinned fairy called "Kintsuba" (きんつば).
 * She shares the same Character Designer with Makaino Ririmu of Nijisanji and Ushio Tia of Re:AcT.
 * Her name "flare" is derived from the English word "flare" (not a Japanese translation), which means bright light/flame.
 * Constantly reiterate her idol elements, is questioned by her colleague Shirogane Noel with an anonymous marshmallow (nickname for fan's inquiries sent to VTubers) "Which part of you shows the 'idol' element?" The question is evaded swiftly.

 * Never touched action games before, but promised to try them more often in the future.
 * Favorite ACG works include Planetes, Mushishi, Steins;Gate, Higurashi When They Cry, Devil May Cry etc，loves Planetes the most because "there is no real antagonist in this anime" and announced that she "watches the anime two times per month".
 * Has been playing The Idolmaster Cinderella Girls, is a fan of the character ふたば　あんず (Futaba Anzu).
 * Likes songs from Sound Horizon (SH) and denpa songs, started singing songs from SH in her debut.
 * Both“🧂” and “🀄” appears as candidate emojis to present her, besides “🐼 “and”🔥“. A lot of viewers started sending a lot of ”🔥“, and ”🔥 🐼 🔥 “ started appearing. She then pledged her viewers not to "burn the panda". (Achievement get: getting flamed (emoji-wise) in her debut video.)
 * To stop the flaming (emoji-wise) chose “🔥” under viewers' pressure, from then on there is a flame that never extinguishes in the stream. Flare, having seen this, made the comment "Forests are fated to burn as long as there are elves around". （エルフは森を燃やす宿命）
 * Used to live in the forest of the elves, and only moved out to Virtual Tokyo recently. Mentions there are electronic devices as well as internet connection in the forest of the elves, but overusing them would lead to forest fires.
 * The panda-like fairy has a duty to monitor and take care of her due to her being a prankster in the past. Its "ears" can be taken off into an unknown black and white creature, "like an old man, in human terms". She only realized this several days before the debut, having chanced upon seeing it take off its headgear.
 * Even though her pet fairy is called "Kintsuba", which means dorayaki in Japanese, she does not particularly like the dessert.

Interpersonal relationship(s)

 * Partners with Shirogane Noel as "158cm group" due to both of them being 158 cm tall.


 * Akai Haato、Yozora Mel、Aki Rosenthal、Yuzuki Choco and Shiranui Flare are sometimes referred to as the "blonde group" because of the color of their hair and because they are all members of Hololive.
