Miscellaneous

• Tsuna is sometimes mistakenly considered to be a cat girl due to her cat motif, but she is human. In fact, she pointed out during her debut that there are only humans in VSPO!.
  • Her later costumes do have a feature to toggle cat ears, but this is a model feature for specific outfits shared by other VSPO! VTubers (e.g. the Kaga sisters, Shinomiya Runa) who don't even have a cat motif like Tsuna does.
  • She is also not a tuna despite the similarity of "Tsuna" and "Tuna" (the word tuna, derived using Nihon-shiki/Kunrei romanization from つな or ツナ is also pronounced "tsuna" in Japanese), and says she prefers salmon when it comes to fish.
• She lives in South Korea, a fact that she didn't include during debut, but she has also stated that she is fine with saying it, and has done so after being asked by both viewers and collab partners.
  • She also revealed that she isn't full-blooded Korean, maybe a quarter Japanese due to her grandparents.
• She has reached Master rank in Apex Legends and is therefore treated as Master-level in tournaments, but she is also considered one of the strongest Apex players in VSPO! due to her ability to easily keep up with the professional Apex players who are often her teammates in tournaments.
