Trivia

 * Around October 2021, Aoi Nabi held a Gartic Phone collab with fellow artists Kakage, Nachoneko, Ayamy, Iida Pochi, and Kagura Nana; out of them, Kakage was the only one whose VTuber had yet to be debuted, as consequence of audition for the VTuber he initially designed for hololive in March 2020 was still unknown; then in 2 November hololive announced the cancellation of the audition, leaving a shock to both Kakage and hololive fans; both moments have since been memed by some fans. When hololive's 6th generation was announced, many fans congratulated Kakage for his new "daughter"'s debut.
