Hikasa Tomoshika

Hikasa Tomoshika (緋笠トモシカ) is a female Japanese Virtual YouTuber under VOMS Project.

Personality
Tomoshika is an excitable, easily startled, and the most cunning out of the group. Despite this, she is very caring and looks after the group while bringing out the gremlin out of all the group. This is shown by her visiting other streams to support them by making jokes, cheering and even guiding them so they don't violate the guideline as in Pikamee's drunk horror game stream.

Tomoshika is known to be fond of directing and the most daring out of the three as she has the most versatile content from short skits, meditation stream, to writing a script, and many more. She's known to be the smartest out of the group, which is shown in her gameplay strategies, scoring the highest score in an exam test stream, and her overall fondness to do a study stream.

She starts her streams by saying "はい雑魚ども" (hai zakodomo) and ends her streams by saying あばよ(abayo).

Trivia

 * While not as popular in the west as Amano Pikamee, she's the reason one of the most famous clips of Pikamee exists. During a collaborative Minecraft stream with the rest of VOMS Project on 17th of June 2020 she said the famous "Let's kill da ho!" line referencing JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, unaware of the meaning of the word "ho". After Pikamee explains the meaning they ended up laughing it off and turning it into a meme of sorts.

 * She easily screams at the smallest things, which leads her not preferring horror game streams though she still plays it time to time.

 * Her drawing skills are quite good, which is showcased by her art and edits of the VOMS members.
 * On an English study stream using Duolingo (Let's studey english series), she can't pronounce the word "money" but saying the word "moner" this lead to chat using the word "moner" instead on "money".
 * She loves singing and does many varieties of themed karaoke. When the song is a duet, she usually uses her "deep voice" to sing the other part.
 * She's actually the smartest out of the three as she had the highest score when they did a school test stream together. She is also the most athletic out of the three as seen when they did a jump rope challenge where Monoe scores slightly over 1,000 jumps, Pikamee did over 3,000 jumps, and Tomoshika's score was a whopping 10,000 jumps in the span of 3 hours.
