Virtual Noja Loli Kitsunemusume Youtuber Ojisan (バーチャルのじゃロリ狐娘Youtuberおじさん, lit. Virtual Noja Loli Foxgirl Youtuber Uncle) is a Japanese Virtual YouTuber who debuted in December 2017.

Also called Nekomasu, he rose to prominence despite the male voice which doesn't match the character model. He was subsequently nominated as one of the Four Heavenly Kings, an unofficial group of successful and influential VTubers which featured such luminaries as Kizuna AI.

Nojaoji's introduction.

Personality[]

The most unique point is that the cute character speaks in a middle-aged man's voice without a voice changer.

She is always with a serious look rooted from her model's specification, and adds "noja" at end of the sentences in order to appeal her characteristic, unnaturally. But these are one of her charms. "Noja" (のじゃ) is an inflection in the Kansai dialect which is associated with fox girls.

Appearance[]

Nekomasu wears a pink kimono with a bell on the chest and exposed armpits. He has fox ears and a fox tail.

He has long blonde hair with large fox ears and a red hairclip, and light blue eyes.
