Fans

 * Her fan-base is officially called "Hey-min" (へい民), a Japanese term roughly translating to "Plebeians" or a general lower strata of social-class.

Trivia

 * Her nickname of "PP Tenshi" ("PowerPoint Angel") originates from her use of Microsoft PowerPoint in her debut stream. Her fans have also given joking alternate meanings for the abbreviation in different situations ("Perfect Pitch Tenshi" when she's singing, "Perpetually Panicked Tenshi" when she's playing horror-games, etc.).
 * During her debut stream Kanata included a vocal performance of the traditional Japanese sea shanty Sōran Bushi, complete with the backing-music being entirely composed of her singing A cappella. Kanata has since become intrinsically linked with Sōran Bushi, with it becoming somewhat of her de facto theme-song. A remixed version of her performance frequently serves as the stand-by music on her streams.


 * She owns two pet rabbits.
 * Kanata has a notably wide vocal-range, even compared to other hololive members with established singing talent. Kanata has demonstrated on stream an impressive ability to simulate a wide range of voices (usually to voice an NPC in a game, for example) including convincing child-like voices, deeper-sounding male voices and exaggerated cartoon voices, all to the surprise of her audience. She has also routinely been able to successfully make prank-calls to other hololive members via Discord, impersonating another hololive member in a totally convincing manner and only revealing herself to have actually been Kanata at the end of the call before hanging up.
