Personality

2020
Nimu's earliest streams started on February in Facebook. This platform was chosen as Facebook is still heavily used by Latin-Americans.

Around the end of June she started uploading short clips and very occasionally streaming on Youtube, which caused her number of subscribers in the platform to spike.

At the start of August her YouTube channel surpassed a group of VTubers called Coloratura - Youtubers Virtuales in subscribers, while also amassing around 250k followers on Facebook, making her the most subscribed Virtual Youtuber in Latin-America.

On September 4th, a conversation was leaked from her official Discord server where she was informed of a streamer called Loli using a Live2D model resembling Nimu's model. Nimu reacted somewhat negatively, stating that she was not surprised that someone was using a character akin to hers. Nimu, upon realizing the character model, said that Loli supposedly had no permission to use the character and that the creator of the model was the one who drew and created her character. Her fanbase incited insults towards Loli. Loli's character model was a non-official Live2D Facerig model from a popular VOCALOID and VOICEROID character called Kizuna Akari, made by the artist Amakoke. After receiving the news about Loli's stream, she decided to join her stream and talk to her about her character model, along with her fans, which it resulted that she spoke harshly to her to the point of making her cry on-air. Loli issued a statement saying that she would learn from her mistakes, clarifying that Nimu is the only person who can judge her own decisions in such situation. As a result, Nimu posted an apology dedicated to Loli on her Twitter account with her statements, but in a stream she made another apology in which she blamed the fact that she was on her period causing her to "act nasty". Regarding the status of the model that Loli used, Amakoke was contacted and confirmed that it is okay to use the model on streams, this fact refuted what Nimu said about Loli not being allowed to use the model. Amakoke apologized because of their model looking similar to Nimu's.

Some people believe that Nimu edited the Kizuna Akari model by Amakoke without any permission, even if Amakoke apologized for the similarity between Akari's model and Nimu's.
