Introduction Video
Mayuzumi's introduction.

Personality
Cool-headed and reserved, Mayuzumi is known for his monotone way of speaking and his blunt and sarcastic humour. He will often speak casually to his seniors instead of using polite speech, much to their annoyance. Mayuzumi will often suddenly act out of character through exaggerated voice acting or peculiar video editing; most famously, at the suggestion of his viewers he completely reversed his personality and acted in an energetic and polite manner.

As shown through his frequent collab and call-in livestreams, he gets on well with many livers including those outside of Nijisanji such as Natsuiro Matsuri from Hololive, and his own illustrator Ichijiku.

Due to his quiet personality, others often become excited if they are able to make him laugh.

Background
Mayuzumi made his YouTube debut on 29 July 2019. He begins livestreams with his famous "Do-mo" (どーも lit. Hello) catchphrase.

Aside from the usual Vtuber game titles, he most often plays indie games.

2019
In October he revealed he had cataracts in both of his eyes and would have to limit his streaming frequency as they were treated.

On 3 July, Mayuzumi announced he would be in his official 3D model debut on 10 July. He unveiled his official 3D model on 10 July as scheduled.
