Suzuhara Lulu

Suzuhara Lulu (鈴原るる) was a female Japanese Virtual YouTuber and member of Nijisanji.

Personality
A second-year girl who goes to an all-girls university. She's from a family of honorable origin, and is a so-called "sheltered girl". To fix her ignorance of the world, she started streaming. She doesn't intend to be behind on trends, and likes to try things out of curiosity. She likes singing, and wants her voice to reach many people.

Lulu is very soft-spoken and speaks politely, yet has some odd personality quirks. Lulu will turn to stare into the camera and will address the viewer directly at times of duress or failure. She once claimed that eyeballs can grow back, and that she could drink lava. Whether this is just a joke or a hint that she might not be human is unknown. She has a love for games made by FromSoftware and will regularly stream them. Lulu also enjoys the Rhythm Heaven series, despite her notably poor sense of rhythm. She will often host collabs with Debidebi Debiru, who refers to her as 'art student.' She very rarely gets angry at games and speaks in a soft, polite voice. She has both a unique greeting and farewell, being 'konlulu~' and 'otsululu~' respectively.

Trivia

 * Color: #D7AFA8
 * Lulu claims she plays games more seriously whenever she takes her hat off because it's a limiter. She says it's 50 kilograms (110 lbs) and removing it lets her move more freely. This joke was taken further during the reveal of her second 2D costume, where she removes her hair accessory and says it feels like it weighs about 60 kilograms (132 lbs). The weight was taken even further in the reveal of her new outfit, where she claimed it weighed in at about 500 kilograms (1102 lbs).
 * Despite not being easily scared, she is very scared of spiders.
 * During a Nijisanji live tour, Lulu addressed the audience by saying "there's so many humans", much to the confusion of fellow Nijisanji VTuber Takamiya Rion.
 * Her first five streams of Sekiro were played with lag (she didn't have a second monitor and had to watch her own capture footage). While she did eventually get a second monitor, it was only after she beat Lady Butterfly (a boss considered by many to be the first majorly difficult boss in the game) a feat that amazed both her audience and fellow Nijisanji members.
 * Lulu once held a 10-hour-long Ring Fit Adventure Stream, immediately after she played 10 hours of Dark Souls.
 * In the "Nijisanji Imagination Tournament" she was quick to not only reach the finals in the entire event, but also regarded by the hosts as the villain of the "arc", remarking that she would always take the opponent's first attack to gauge their strength before engaging in a long-drawn-out battle for the sheer fun of it before killing/beating them out of boredom or by overestimating their power. This depiction of Lulu (and the tournament in general) was so popular among fans that it garnered two chapters of Nijisanji fan comics, the second one being illustrated by the mangaka of Goblin Slayer, Kōsuke Kurose.
