Fans

 * Her fanbase is officially called "Tentacult".

Trivia

 * In Japanese, her name is written 「一伊那尓栖」.
 * Her surname, Ninomae, is simply written with the kanji 一, meaning "one". This is a kanji pun; "ni no mae" means "before two". It is an example of nanori, or idiosyncratic readings of kanji which only appear in names.
 * Her first name, "Inanis", is written with the kanji 伊那尓栖, which phonetically spell "inanisu". Phonetic spellings using kanji are more common in Chinese or historic Japanese.
 * "Inanis" is Latin, meaning "empty". It appears in the medieval Latin poem O Fortuna, in the line "Sors immanis et inanis", meaning "monstrous and empty fate". It was famously set to music in Carl Orff's Carmina Burana, but this line is perhaps best known to video gamers for its appearance as a lyric in Final Fantasy VII's One-Winged Angel.
 * Despite her appearance, Ina'nis claims to be human. Her current appearance and ability to control tentacles are thanks to the strange book she found.
 * Ina likes food, drawing, gaming, reading and sometimes cooking.
 * She is a very talented artist, she drew Hololive EN’s members present in their introductory video, a few illustrations of herself, the cover of Mori Calliope's Debut EP (DEAD BEATS), and all of Hololive En’s first generation member’s mascots.
 * She dislikes: cucumbers, bugs and being bored.
 * Her goals are drawing every hololive member, improving her Japanese and singing skills, making lots of collaboration streams and friends, and world domination to make fun of her status as a human that has gained supernatural powers.
 * Her favorite games include Nier series, Final Fantasy XIV, Destiny 2, Apex Legends, Kingdom Hearts, Pokémon, Fate/Grand Order, Arknights, Granblue Fantasy among others.
 * Her favorite light novels include Biblia Koshodō no Jiken Techō, 86-Eighty-Six-, The Case Files of Lord El-Melloi II, Kino no Tabi and Fate/strange fake.
 * Her favorite anime include Neon Genesis Evangelion, Sword Art Online, Sword Art Online Alternative Gun Gale Online, the Fate series, Gin Tama, The Disastrous Life of Saiki K., Nichijou, Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn, 3-gatsu no lion, Made in Abyss, Puella Magi Madoka Magica, Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba among others.
 * Ina appears to be inspired by the Lovecraftian mythos, a collection of stories featuring tentacled horrors, cultists to ancient forgotten gods, and old books of insanity-inducing lore. The anime series Haiyore! Nyaruko-san is based on the same mythos.
 * Ina's illustrator, Kuroboshi Kouhaku, is well known for illustrating several Lovecraftian mythos inspired servants appearing in Fate/Grand Order.
 * She is the fourth hololive EN member and tenth hololive member overall to join official Hololive Subreddit as a moderator.
