Trivia

 * She proclaims herself to be the first Argentinian VTuber, albeit the first one at date is Danuu Ai who uploaded her first video in 25 April, 2019. However, she can still be considered the first Argentinian VStreamer as Danuu Ai started streaming on 26 September, 2020.


 * She mainly speaks Spanish but has shown some English proficiency.


 * She's done a few strange streams, like an almost hour long stream only eating potato chips and not talking, or trying to break a Bedrock block in Minecraft for 2 hours. These also tend to be the more successful streams.


 * She has mentioned how she is aware that Facebook is the main market for Spanish speaking countries, thus attracting more people to her stream than in YouTube.


 * It's often jokingly said that the main reason she got popular is for "being a loli".


 * Opposite to popular belief, Nimu is not the "loli", but the purple alien-like cat attached on her head. This is curiously explained in her Facebook page as well in her Discord group and other social media. On the other hand, the "loli" body who is connected with Nimu is named Centi.
