Uten Hiyori

Uten Hiyori (羽天ひより) is an independent female Japanese Virtual YouTuber, who debuted on the 19th of July 2020.

Personality
Hiyori is very kind to AMeDAS and her VTuber friends, and puts her fans first in her stream.

At first, she couldn't handle English at all, but now she studies English and Indonesian to understand the languages of her viewers.

She often gets lost when playing games. She often gets left and right wrong, and even asks listeners in the stream, "Which way is left?"

She also has a unique sense of humor, often laughing in her iconic laugh, giving mobs strange nicknames to confuse her viewers, doing Pikachu's impression when singing Hajimete no Chuu or even doing duck quack sound while singing Lemon. She does a lot of live game and Karaoke streams.

Her starting greeting is Konhiyo (こんひよ), and ends with Otsuhiyo (おつひよ). She streams various content such as video games (including retro games), storytelling, chit-chats and karaoke streams.

Appearance
Hiyori has the appearance of a tomboy angel girl. She wears a black jacket with small white stripes, and underneath that, a small sleeveless top that doesn't reach her stomach, which means that her belly button is exposed. She also sports a small dark blue tie on her neck; grey shorts, which are fastened with a black belt; and black boots with dark blue ribbons, which also appear on both of her arms.

She has red eyes and short white hair. Behind her is a pair of floating white angel wings (she also can hide her wings) ; and above her, a floating halo that can change color between dark blue, light blue and golden.
