- Her resume on debut stream showed that she dropped out of university. She was a hikikomori during middle school and high school, and did not do well at school, making her struggling even more during university before she decided to drop out.[1]
Speech Pattern[]
- "Watakushi" is the most polite way of referring to oneself in Japanese, which is also the "posh" way of speaking often used by nobles. She is the fourth NIJISANJI Liver who refers herself using the the word after Tsukino Mito, Kagami Hayato, and Eli Conifer.
- "~desuwa" is part of yakuwarigo (役割語, role language) of a (noble) lady.
- On her debut stream, she mentioned that within her family, only she uses "~desuwa", while other family members are speak normally.[1]
- Very quickly after her debut, various VTubers started making references to her "~desuwa", to the point that it was quickly dubbed by viewers as the "desuwa virus".[47]
- "O-" is a Japanese honorific prefix which often used for mentioning someone or something respectfully, or in her case, to speak in a generally refined or polite way despite not needed to be used on loanwords.
- eg.: "O-tabu" (おタブ, windows tab), "O-saachi" (おサーチ, for search), "O-Bio7" (おバイオ７, Biohazard 7), etc.
Personal Preference[]
- Hobbies: looking at cute things, piano, violin, horse riding, sleep, cafe-hopping, flower arrangement, and embroidery. But among these, only 3 are her real hobbies and she still does not know how to play violin yet, but she mentioned it because it is a lady-like hobby.[1]
- Strong subject: Japanese language.[1]
Stream "Errors"[]
- Just before her debut stream, she accidentally set up 3 pending streams in a row. She eventually made private 2 videos which both used the same thumbnail image as her debut stream announcement on NIJISANJI Twitter account.
- The new thumbnail that she chose instead for her debut stream was noticeably low quality and pixelated.
- At the start of the first stream after her debut, she accidentally downloaded a different game instead of the intended Resident Evil 7. She then closed her stream abruptly before went online again. While waiting for the correct game to finish downloading, she challenged herself on matching Japan's prefecture names with their locations on a blank map of Japan.[48]
Miscellaneous[]
- A part of her last name "hyakuman" means "1 million" in Japanese, which coincidentally made her the first Liver to debut after NIJISANJI YouTube channel passed 1 million subscribers milestone.
- Salome holds the record for fastest liver from NIJISANJI to reach 100 000, 200 000, 300 000, 400 000, 500 000, 600 000, 700 000, 800 000 and 900 000 and 1 million subscribers.
- Currently holding the record for reaching 500 000 subscribers in the shortest amount of time, she surpassed the previous recordholder Sakamata Chloe by a few hours. Similarly, she also broke Gawr Gura's record and became the fastest VTuber in the industry to reach such milestone.
- Debut speculations:
- When her debut was first announced, one of the speculations was that Salome is somewhat related to Kanae because of the "ロメ" ('rome' from Salome) from her name looks like Kanae's name in kanji (叶). On top of that, Kanae had also recently passed 1 million subscribers milestone too.
- Instead of a new person, fan speculated that she would be the other NIJISANJI Livers, notably Joe Rikiichi or Gilzaren III's alter-ego (especially the former, given both Salome and Kiriko are based on the oujou-sama archetype and the fact that both have drill hair), or even Tazumi Riku (NIJISANJI/ANYCOLOR CEO) himself. Fans also speculated that, from the voice, it could be Debidebi Debiru, Suo Sango, or even the well-known voice actress Yui Horie.
- Furthering the ties to Kiriko, Salome mentioned in her debut that she once saw a stream about an ojou-sama VTuber who called themselves a lion and was inspired by it.
- Family members: father, mother, (an imaginary older brother) and herself. But only her mom lives with her.[1]
- Hair:
- She curls her hair lightly because her hair is already naturally curly.[1]
- She uses Dear Beauté HIMAWARI shampoo, because she has sensitive hair. She also uses other hair products.[1]
- When she was in junior high school, there were time when she hated her hair; it was when she cut it short and all went curly. At that time her hair was dyed black.[1]
- Despite being afraid of horror games, her first week stream schedule was fully booked to play Resident Evil 7: Biohazard.[49]
- At the beginning of her stream, she usually does a recap of the event occurred on the previous stream accompanied by a drawing drawn by herself.
- She shares the same illustrator with Chion of Limnos, former VVorks Vtuber Yuizora Kanon, Amoria of V&U, Uzumaki Tear(Retired) of Enadori, Serenade Oxblood of Varium, Lucia Laetitia of Nextopia and Koma Oboro of Specialite.
- Unlike most vtubers, her birth date has not been disclosed. When asked about it she said that her birth date is her password and disclosing it would be dangerous.[50]
