Amagase Muyu (天ヶ瀬むゆ) is a female Japanese Virtual YouTuber affiliated with NIJISANJI, debuting as part of the unit "Ranunculus" (ラナンキュラス) alongside Umise Yotsuha and Ponto Nei. Previously, she was enrolled as a student in VIRTUAL TALENT ACADEMY (VTA) as part of its first generation.

Half-human, half-youkai (generic name for Japanese monsters). She can turn sleeping persons' bad dreams to good dreams. Usually, she is careful not to be found out that she is half-youkai, but she started video streaming since she wants to see many kinds of dreams. She has trouble falling asleep.[3] |

Personality[]
In general, Muyu is a sensitive and thoughtful girl. She has a sweet and playful disposition, especially towards her viewers, but often gets shy when expressing genuine affection. As a result of being babied by her debut-mates (given that she is Ranunculus' youngest), she likes to present herself as being older and more mature than she actually is. However, she has a tendency to engage in sekizui (脊髄, reflexive) or nōshi (脳死, brain dead) styles of commentary, which means she usually ends up with the boke role in collabs.
Despite not being a succubus, she tends to unintentionally make people fall for her, as she has been described as having a naturally charming and "naughty" personality and a warped sense of personal space;[6][7][8] Kenmochi Toya even introduced her as someone with a "lewd character" for a NIJISANJI tournament.[9] For example, she once nonchalantly answered a on-stream call from Ishigami Nozomi while naked in the bath, and has casually revealed yabai things about herself, including that she dislikes wearing clothes and that her butt is quite large in proportion to the rest of her body.[10][11][12] While she is somewhat puzzled by her reputation, she is not entirely surprised by it, as in her own words, she has always been a "sexy onee-san" though she perhaps puts a bit too much emphasis on the onee-san part.[13]
Appearance[]
Muyu has long, reddish-pink hair tied in twintails with blue, purple and gold eyes. She wears a pair of large red and white hairbows with hearts on them and two straight black hairpins and a black, cat head shaped accessory. She has a fang/snaggletooth in the upper left corner of her mouth that is visible when she opens it. In her default appearance, she wears a dark purple jacket with a pink and cyan collar, orange lining, purple stripes down the sleeves, and her "Nyalaxy" logo printed on the back, accented by cyan-pink gradient ribbons. The jacket is held together by strings laced underneath her bust. Under the jacket, she wears a red striped dress shirt with a lace collar and pink bow tie, and a pleated red skirt. She has a black gas mask with gold ports around her neck. She wears brown loafers with ankle-length red socks held up by band-aids. |
Muyu's second outfit, which matches those of the other Ranunculus members, is an idol-style uniform consisting of a white blazer with black tartan and burgundy accents, a cropped white dress shirt, burgundy vest and cravat revealing her midriff, a frilly short burgundy skirt with black trim, a single maroon thigh-high stocking with black and gold trim, and white boots with burgundy laces. Her accessories include a hairband, belt, and brooch, all with ranunculus motifs; a red armband; and white gloves. The outfit also came with a new hairstyle, featuring her hair being let down rather than in twintails. |
As a VTA student, Muyu had brown hair tied into a pair of cat ear-shaped buns and twintails. She had the same two straight black hairpins and black cat head shaped accessory that she does in her NIJISANJI appearance. Her eyes were purple-gold. Her fang/snaggletooth was more prominent, being visible even with her mouth closed. She wore the standard VTA first generation female uniform, consisting of a black hooded varsity jacket with white stripes, a black cardigan, a white dress shirt, a black necktie with blue, lime green, and purple stripes, a pleated black skirt with diagonal pinstripes along the bottom hem, calf-length black socks, and black loafers. |
History[]
Background[]
On 18 June 2021, ANYCOLOR announced the launch of VIRTUAL TALENT ACADEMY (VTA), a vocational school and talent development project to help prospective Virtual YouTubers develop skills related to streaming and content creation. Applications for VTA's first generation auditions were accepted from 18 June to 5 July 2021.[14]
On 1 November 2021, VTA opened official YouTube and Twitter accounts and revealed the names and appearances of its first generation students, including Amagase Muyu.[15][16]
On 5 November 2021, Muyu held her first stream ✗ on the VTA channel. Her first Tweet was made on 8 November 2021.[17]
While the students all took part in dance, vocal, acting, and other practical lessons together, they were divided into classes for lectures and classroom-based studying in smaller groups. Muyu was placed in class 1, alongside Ponto Nei, Fura Kanato, and Watarai Hibari; the division was based on their streaming schedules, with class 1 streaming on Fridays and class 2 streaming on Thursdays.[18]
On 16 March 2022, ANYCOLOR announced that Muyu would be graduating from VTA to debut directly into NIJISANJI as part of the unit "Ranunculus", the first wave of Livers formed from VTA graduates.[19] In preparation for her debut, Muyu received a full redesign, and all YouTube videos previously created during her time in VTA were hidden.
Muyu's YouTube channel was created on 2 March 2022, and her Twitter account was also created in the same month. Her first Tweet was made on 16 March 2022.
Debut[]
Ranunculus made their debut on 20 March 2022. Muyu was the second of the group to hold her first stream. Afterwards, all three members appeared on a special debut program on the NIJISANJI Official channel.
Ranunculus' first original song, "DONBURA KONBURA SPEAKERS", was released shortly after the program. This song was written and produced by MONACA's Hirokawa Keiichi.
2022[]
On 20 March, on the day of her first stream, Muyu reached 50,000 subscribers on her YouTube channel.[20]
On 2 April, her channel was approved for monetization.[21]
On 20 April, Muyu held her first stream on her TwitCasting account.[22]
On 18 May, Muyu opened a personal TikTok account.[23]
On 18 June, she announced that she would be going on a brief hiatus from streaming.[24] During her return stream on 7 July, she explained that she took a break because she felt overwhelmed between having to stream and her other work and obligations, having overestimated her limits.[25]
On 23 July, Muyu reached 100,000 subscribers on her YouTube channel,[26] which she celebrated on 1 August by releasing her first music cover, of HoneyWorks' "Fansa" (ファンサ).
On 14 September, Ponto Nei announced during a zatsudan stream that Ranunculus would receive their second 2D outfits, revealing them via a stream relay on 16 September to commemorate their half-anniversary since debut.[27] On 16 September, Muyu was the second to debut her second outfit.[28] At the end of the relay, the three members together announced the release of Ranunculus' first voice drama, "To Bloom in the Spring", as well as their half-anniversary line of goods.[29]
At NijiFes 2022, which was held from 1 October to 2 October, she took part in the Senpai ni Kiita Ranunculus no Daiichi Inshō wo Atero!!!!! stage on Day 2 alongside the other members of Ranunculus.
On 3 November, her channel became open for memberships.[30]
2023[]
On 31 January, Muyu took a brief break from streaming due to being hospitalized for gastroenteritis. She returned on 3 February for an appearance on the NIJINoon NIJISANJI 5th Anniversary Special, and resumed streaming on 4 February.[31][32]
On 16 March, Ranunculus released their first group cover for their first debut anniversary, of "GETCHA!" by Giga & KIRA.
On 31 March, NIJISANJI announced the 3D debut of Ranunculus as a group, with all of them happening in April for each member over the course of the following 3 weeks.[33] Muyu was the third to have her 3D model debut on 21 April.[34] Her 3D debut stream peaked at over 40,000 concurrent viewers.[35]
On 19 June, Muyu was announced to be part of the regular cast of the original show NIJISANJI Ninki VTuber Daishūketsu! THE Asobi Ō Ketteisen, which featured a group of NIJISANJI Livers completing challenges in the real world using their 3D models, competing for a prize of 1 million yen. It began airing on DMM TV on 23 June.[36]
On 24 June, NIJISANJI announced that Ranunculus would be holding their first 3D live concert on 30 June.[37] It was streamed for free on Umise Yotsuha's channel. At the concert, they debuted their second original song, "Kamisama Record" (カミサマレコード), which was released on digital platforms at midnight the next day, followed by the music video on 7 July. Like "DONBURA KONBURA SPEAKERS", the song was written and produced by MONACA's Hirokawa Keiichi.
From 8 July onwards, she has been on a hiatus from streaming for as of yet undisclosed reasons. However, she has continued to make guest appearances on other Livers' streams, and has participated in song cover collaborations and official NIJISANJI-related schedules.
From 4 November to 11 November, coinciding with the second anniversary of their VTA debuts, the 8 former members of VTA's first generation who ultimately debuted with NIJISANJI held the Ano 8-Nin Nayutan Medley (あの8人でナユタンメドレー), a cover relay in which each member sang a different NayutalieN song. Muyu released a cover of "Cosmology of NyanNyan" (猫猫的宇宙論) on 10 November as part of this relay. The relay concluded with a cover of "Alien Alien" (エイリアンエイリアン) by the full group on 12 November.

Trivia[]
Identity[]
- Color: #FA5578[48]
- Background: Half-human, half-yōkai.[4]
- VIRTUAL TALENT ACADEMY (VTA) student number: 008[49]
- Her MBTI is INTP.[50]
Character and Lore[]
- She is a half-human, half-yōkai hybrid capable of feeding on peoples' dreams, though she chooses to only eat bad dreams. She is neither a baku nor a succubus. However, her yōkai father disappeared when she was young before he could clearly tell her about her heritage, so she is not entirely sure what exactly she is.[51]
- She does not need to eat dreams for nourishment, however she becomes depressed if she is unable to eat them, and in that sense it is something necessary for her to do. She has compared it to the feelings of someone who loves going out being forced to stay inside, or someone who can't do something they love.[52]
- While her sleep quality is not particularly good, in line with what her profile states, her other "powers" as a hybrid include being able to sleep a lot on her days off and being able to sleep anywhere.[52][53]
- Muyu herself used to be unable to dream - her "dream" was to become able to dream through her activities as a Liver,[54] which she was finally able to achieve after her 3D model debut.
- Out of fear of making her classmates uncomfortable, she hid her hybrid nature as a VTA student and pretended to be a normal human. However, when becoming a full-fledged Liver she had to disclose it on her résumé, so she "came out" as a half-yōkai at that point. She went through school normally while hiding her true nature as well.[54][55]
- It is implied that she ate the nightmare Seraph Dazzlegarden had on 1 April 2023,[56] which may be the in-lore reason why he appears to have no memory of it. It was apparently such a big meal that it gave her heartburn.[57]
- Due to her yōkai heritage, she became quite nervous and reluctant to congratulate Koyanagi Rou on debuting, as according to the latter's lore, he slays yōkai.[58] Her fears turned out to be founded as Rou reacted by drawing his sword,[59] with Muyu being shocked that he would decide to cut her down so quickly.[60]
Minna wo Yume de, Iyashimasu[]
(More... if I don't, eat more... not enough... not enough... emotions...... need more.........)
- On 21 April 2023, Muyu began her 3D model reveal stream, titled after her catchphrase, "minna wo yume de, iyashimasu" (みんなを夢で、癒やします, healing everyone with dreams). While it started off light-hearted and cute as expected, Muyu's speech began to glitch and distort, while the highlights faded from her eyes. She then collapsed, and was quickly escorted off-stage by her debut-mates.
As she wandered through this mysterious world, she came across a stuffed animal, one that she had cherished as a child.――
天ヶ瀬夢癒は、自分が感じている"感情"が本物かどうか疑問を持っていた。
(Amagase Muyu, questioned if the "feelings" she was experiencing were real.)
"いま夢癒が感じている『楽しい』や『嬉しい』はニセモノなんじゃないかって"
(I'm wondering if the "fun" and "happiness" that I'm feeling right now are fake.)
"だって夢癒は、人の夢を食べて生きる半人半妖。みんなと同じように感じているつもりでも、それは誰かの夢を食べて得た誰かの感情"
(After all, I'm a half-human, half-yōkai who eats peoples' dreams. Even if I think I "feel" like other people do, they're just someone else's emotions that I got by eating their dreams.)
"本当の夢癒……私は何も感じることができない。人でもない、妖怪でもない、ただの空っぽの……"
(The real Muyu... I can't "feel" anything at all. Not quite a human, not quite a yōkai, just an empty......)
"こわい、こわいこわいこわいっっ!!誰でもいい、誰かの感情がほしい、誰でもいいっ!!"
(I'm afraid... I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid! I don't care who it is, I need someone's emotions, it doesn't matter whose!)
天ヶ瀬夢癒は、不安だったから人の夢を食べ始めた。
(Amagase Muyu, started eating peoples' dreams because she was unsettled.)
- At that point, the reason why Muyu now only eats nightmares was revealed: when she was young she ate the dreams of the people around her, both good and bad, out of an obsessive desire to feel the same positive emotions that she saw them expressing, like "gratitude", "happiness", "love", and "fun". She then saw the effect her indiscriminate devouring of dreams had - the people around her no longer expressed anything at all. From then on, she chose to only eat bad dreams.
- She was reassured that her curiosity about emotions wasn't what caused her isolation, as "children discovered new emotions all the time". Rather, she had subconsciously chosen to be alone because of her powers and her inhuman nature, to avoid being ostracized and to avoid hurting others.
"ただ不安だった、夢癒はみんなとは違うんじゃないかって。夢癒はただ、人間の感情が知りたくて!一人になりたかったわけじゃない!"
(I was just unsettled, wondering if I was different from everyone else. All I wanted was to know what human emotions were like! It's not like I wanted to be alone!)
天ヶ瀬むゆは、気づいた。そして、思い出した。天ヶ瀬むゆが得た感情は、ちゃんと自分だけのものだということを。
(Amagase Muyu, realized it. And then, remembered. The "feelings" that Amagase Muyu had, were hers and hers alone.)
"今、みなさんの前にいる天ヶ瀬むゆは、ちゃんと天ヶ瀬むゆです。半人半妖で、人の夢を食べて生きる天ヶ瀬むゆです"
(The Amagase Muyu in front of you right now, is really Amagase Muyu. The half-human, half-yōkai, dream-eating, living, breathing, Amagase Muyu.)
"私は、人間でも妖怪でもなく、"天ヶ瀬むゆ"なんだと"
(I am not quite a human, not quite a yōkai - just "Amagase Muyu".)
"私がいま感じている感情は、私だけのもの。私は今日、本当の私に出会えたと思っています"
(The feelings I'm feeling right now are mine alone. I feel like today, I met my true self.)
(Good morning! I feel like I dreamt for the first time in a long time. 💭)
Name[]
- Her surname Amagase is written as 天ヶ瀬, with 天 (ama) meaning heaven or heavenly, ヶ (ga) being a possessive indicator, and 瀬 (se) meaning rapids or current.
- Her given name Muyu is written in hiragana (むゆ), usually reserved for feminine names. As a VTA student, Muyu's given name was written in kanji as 夢癒, with 夢 (mu) meaning dream, and 癒 (yu) meaning to heal. Her name spelled this way is her "real name", but she decided to use hiragana when debuting with NIJISANJI as she felt it would be easier for people to read.[2]
- She still makes occasional references to the original spelling of her name, for example in her catchphrase "minna wo yume de iyashimasu!" (みんなを夢で癒やします!) and the second tier of her channel membership, Muyu no Naka (夢癒のなか), which happens to grant access to VODs of her VTA-era streams.
- In-universe, she surmises that her yōkai father gave her her name in order to guide her with regard to what she should do with her powers.[51]
Preferences[]
- Hobbies: Dance
- Likes:[2][52]
- Games: VALORANT
- Food: White rice, butter chicken curry, Japanese food in general, amanattō
- Pokémon: Musharna
- Perfume: Still by Jennifer Lopez
- Other: Small, cramped spaces (as she has mild agoraphobia)
- Dislikes:[2][52]
Miscellaneous[]
- While she has not revealed her age publicly (beyond the fact that she is old enough to drink) because she does not "want to be treated either as a baby or an auntie" (and because hybrids count age slightly differently than humans), she is known to be the youngest member of Ranunculus. As a result, she often ends up getting treated like a baby by her debut-mates anyway despite her protests.[63]
- Of note, this does mean that she is younger than Ponto Nei, who was 20 years old at the time of her debut in 2022, and older than Kaburaki Roco (known to be the youngest member of Ano 8-Nin), who was 18 years old at the time of her debut in 2023.
- She is one of the taller female livers in NIJISANJI's main branch (behind only Shirayuki Tomoe, Dola, Oh Jiyu, Elu, Hayase Sou, and Luis Cammy); she is insecure about her height and has a bit of a complex about how tall she is.[52] While she admits that there are times that she wants to be "small and cute" and is quite self-conscious about the fact that she is taller than a good number of the men she passes by on the street, she does like the fact that fashion tends to look quite good on her.[64]
- Much like the rest of Ranunculus, she is rather technologically inept, and is known for frequent typos, accidentally muting, accidentally closing the stream, etc. One of her particularly infamous pon incidents was when she accidentally made what was supposed to be a channel members' only VOD visible to everyone for a few hours.[65]
- Her gas mask serves no practical function; it was just something she found lying around at the ANYCOLOR office that she thought looked cool.[52]
- She owns two cats, both Scottish Folds.[52]
- Her favorite subject in school was Japanese.[52]
- She is an excellent cook, particularly when it comes to sweets and desserts.[66] As a VTA student, she would often post pictures of the food she made on their Twitter account.
- Her mother, who she refers to as Hahagase (母ヶ瀬), is aware that Muyu is a VTuber and in fact watches streams and clips of NIJISANJI Livers. However, while she does watch her daughter's streams, according to Muyu her mother's favorite is probably Seraph, much to Muyu's chagrin.[67]
- She took the Pottermore Hogwarts House test and was sorted into Hufflepuff; during her playthrough of Hogarts Legacy, she was sorted into Gryffindor.[68]
- She had no streaming experience prior to applying to VTA. She decided to make entering NIJISANJI her goal as opposed to applying to other companies because she was envious of how its Livers had fun together regardless of gender or species. Up until that point, Muyu had always pretended to be human; she wanted a place where she could simply be herself.[72]
- Her NIJISANJI oshi is Ishigami Nozomi,[73] who hilariously is a human who
pretends to bebelieves that she is a half-human, half-demon hybrid. This leads to unintentional comedy whenever Muyu, who genuinely believes that Nozomi is a fellow hybrid, asks the latter about hernonexistentexperiences as one.[10][74]
