The bags under my eyes aren't the only raccoon thing about me.

I am not a squirrel, guinea pig, bear, etc. I'm a raccoon that steals dori-... I mean, a hard-working raccoon. Yeah.[7]

History[]

Background[]

Before debuting as a VTuber, Rakkun began her online career as a voice actress and singer, uploading multiple covers on her channel, collabing with other online creators, and participating in many independent VA projects. She joined Twitter in February 2010. Her YouTube channel was created in February 2013, and her Facebook fanpage on October 2014.

In early 2021, she announced her plans to become a VTuber. After trial streams and teasers, she set the official date of her debut on August 28. One day prior to her first stream as a VTuber, she posted a short trailer on her social media,[8] and held her debut the next day on YouTube.[1]

2021[]

On 1 October, Rakkun opened a new main YouTube channel named Rakun (RakunVT) which would be mainly used to upload short videos.

Joining OWOZU[]

On 11 October, she announced via twitter that she had joined the agency OWOZU.[9] Soon after, OWOZU's official account posted the same news and welcomed Rakkun to their team.[10]

On 27 October, she reached 10,000 subscribers on her main YouTube channel.[11]

On 24 November, Rakkun opened a new YouTube channel named Rakkun R to upload reaction highlights from her Twitch streams.

On 17 December, she reached 20,000 followers on Twitch.[12]

On 27 December, she went live to celebrate reaching 100,000 subscribers on her main YouTube channel.[13]

2022[]

On 30 January, she reached 50,000 followers on Twitch.[14]

On 17 March, she reached 200,000 subscribers on her main YouTube channel.[15]

On 27 March, she reached 100,000 followers on Twitch.[16]

On 14 April, Rakkun published a trailer to announce her redebut, which would mark the start of a new "2nd season."[17] The event took place on 23 April, during which she revealed her updated 2D model and premiered her new Spanish cover of Villian by Stella Jang. Over 7,000 viewers tunned in to watch her redebut which broke her peak viewership record.[18]

On 13 May, Rakkun debuted her 3D model during a drinking stream on VRchat, during which fellow VTubers and members of her community joined in as guests.[19][20]

On 7 July, she reached 500,000 followers on TikTok.[21]

2024[]

Leaving OWOZU[]

On 29 January, following a huge series of controversies around OWOZU, Rakkun became suddenly independent again.

2025[]

Controversy[]

On 4 May, Rakkun's former agency OWOZU won lawsuits engaged after them by former talents.[22] Following this defeat in Justice, Rakkun became the center of an important series of critiques. She was accused of lies and manipulation by her former colleagues and several third parties. With these accusations, one of the reasons given to her behavior was an obsession to get OWOZU found guilty.

On 7 May, all videos and covers from all of Rakkun's channels (RakkunVT, Rakkun ch, Rakkun R) managed by OWOZU were unlisted.[23] Shortly after, only her Villian cover on her past main channel (RakkunVT) was made public.[24]

On that same day, Rakkun went live on Twitch in a stream entitled "Fin del show". During this stream, Rakkun was committed to: firstly clear her intentions to the public and prove her point on a lot of griefs she has against anybody accusing her at this point, and secondly show the lawsuits should have been in her favor by a legal loophole. She exposed on screen a full Google Drive folder where she stored everything she considered as evidence or key element, and ultimately made the link to this folder public in her chat by the end of the stream.[25] This stream had consequences to damage Rakkun's reputation more than it ever was so far, for a number of grave faults attached to her actions and words. Former OWOZU talents and third parties evoked during this stream reacted by denouncing: leaking personal data (national identity number, phone number, photos of real face, and real name), exposing private life, more lies, recording conversations against the other party's will, and finally slander.

On 9 May, OWOZU, which still had access to some of Rakkun's assets, put her VTuber model in store to the price of ¥725. The file also includes two outfits Rakkun never used.[26] Around this time

On 10 May, her Twitch channel was banned for an indefinite time.[27]

On 13 June, Rakkun announced via Twitter that her three channels were hacked.[28] Some were temporarily banned for promoting crypto scams, including her oldest one (RakkunMP3).

Lore[]

  • Rakkun is a magical raccoon and tanuki hybrid in human form.
  • Rakkun and her family escaped from Raccoon City because, due to her hybrid and magical nature, she was destined to be sent to an alternate magical world, as magic was seen as troublesome in her homeworld. Therefore, they decided to flee to a world without magic: the human one.
    • She explains that, although Umbrella ruined the city, zombies roam the land, and S.T.A.R.S fought Nemesis, her Raccoon city not the one from Resident Evil.
  • After a complicated trip, they landed on the peruvian net, located in the Server World of humans. From there, Rakkun arrived at the GemuLovú server, where she was caught stealing food by Fran, and ended up working at the ItsFandubTime bar to stop scavenging for food in garbage.
  • Rakkun's current mission is to entertain user residents of the Server World.
  • The "Rakkunverse" refers to the different versions of Rakkun created via fanarts, cover songs and stories made by fans, Rakkun herself or her team, including those prior to her debut as a VTuber.

Miscellaneous[]

  • Her MBTI is "ENTP with occasional bits of INTJ."
  • She cans speak Spanish, English, memes, and a tiny bit of japanese.
  • Rakkun describes herself as a workaholic, since she has many occupations such as illustrator, editor, voice actress, VTuber and also Webtoon assistant director.

  • Back in 2016, as a beginner in YouTube, she accepted an $18 deal to include a paid promotion for the social media platform Amino at the beginning of her "Giri Giri" cover. After realizing the video’s unexpected reach, she attempted to renegotiate the terms, but received no response. The video is private, partly due to the fact that she never really used the platform.[38]
  • Although she presented herself using the family name "Sutaru" during her original VTuber debut, according to a tweet by Rakkun, it was never canon. Rather, it was simply a temporary placeholder used because Facebook required a last name.[39]
