Hoozuki Warabe

Hoozuki Warabe (鬼灯わらべ) is a female Japanese Virtual YouTuber and a member of NoriPro as the leader for an inside unit called "NoriPro Gamers" along with Inari Iroha, Nekozeno Shin and Regrush Lionheart.

She was originally introduced as a part of NoriPro's second generation along with Yumeno Lilith, Kurumizawa Momo, Ouma Kirara and Mirutani Nia.

Personality
Warabe is a good laugher who acts like a typical grandma due to significant age difference between her and her viewers; thus, she prefers to be called "ばあちゃん" (grandma) or "ババァ" (hag) rather than being called by her name. She doesn't like to be called "おばさん" (old lady), however.

She has a good skill when using computers despite living in the countryside, and does video editing as a hobby, which became her motive for joining NoriPro.
