* ButHeSoundsHandsome: During the [[SpearCounterpart Ministry]] collab stream, there was a moment where Mumei's voice changer briefly turned off for whatever reason, revealing her own voice. While the other boys thought Mumei sounded cute, Muman himself described Mumei as sounding "ugly".

The spooky portrait was not of Suisei, just a random drawing for her to vent her frustration.


** Her artwork can get pretty demented, with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qCnuzDL1nRw her portrait of Suisei]] in ''Passpartout'' being the most infamous example. Said piece of art has been used as a JumpScare, startling [[https://youtu.be/K9mM3YO9SRo?t=5998 Bae during hololive EN's Halloween collab]] and various members of the Japanese branch as part of Mumei's special skill in ''VideoGame/HoloCure'', with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVGkq-GqQic Matsuri]] getting the worst of it.

** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RRq4-uktHiI "Dan Dan" video]] shows that Mumei was also the cause of the sinking of the ''Titanic'' and the destruction of ''Atlantis''. While not the intent of animator Kanauru, she is also seen holding a bottle of ethanol in front of the ''Challenger'' shuttle as it is exploding; as ethanol breaks down rubber and the rubber o-rings are part of why the shuttle failed, it's implied she intentionally caused the disaster by sabotaging its internals with the bottle.

!!Friend
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/friend_74.png]]

Mumei's mascot. A creature that resembles a living paper bag who sometimes floats beside Mumei.
----
* AnimateInanimateObject: He is a sentient, floating paper bag-like creature.
* ButtMonkey: Friend went from being a paper bag to Mumei's personal punching bag, with his appearances in late 2022 mostly consisting of being abused by Mumei, both verbally and physically. One stream has her accompanied by a PNG of her strangling Friend with her hand.
* CharacterizationMarchesOn: In his early appearances, Mumei seemed to genuinely view him as a friend, even going to lengths to cheer him up when he was upset. This got thrown out the window a year later, when he became her go-to punching bag and she'd seize every chance to take a jab at him.
* ADogNamedDog: He is simply named "Friend" to remind Mumei he is meant to be her friend.
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: Puns aside, Mumei makes it clear she does not like Friend and keeps him at arm's length.
* MonochromaticEyes: Friend has no visible irises, with the entirety of his eyes being a uniform green color. Judging by the fact that they have the same color as what little can be seen of Friend's interior from below, it's possible that his eyes are, in fact, nothing more than two holes in his paper bag body.
* OutOfFocus: Much like Bloop for Gura, appearances from Friend became increasingly scarce, with him sometimes having a habit of accidentally popping up on-stream without Mumei's knowledge. Mumei finally brought him back late in 2022, from which point on she has constantly roasted him.
* PerpetualFrowner: Friend very rarely smiles, defaulting to a sad frown most of the time.
* PowerFloats: He hovers above the ground next to Mumei.
* ToughLove: Mumei claims she must be harsh on Friend, otherwise he risks destroying the world.
* TheUnfavorite: Mumei unsubtly gives preference to Hootsie as her mascot over Friend.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Hootsie]]
!!Hootsie

A small owl that Mumei ended up adopting, who became her other mascot. Unlike [[TheUnfavorite Friend]], Mumei is very fond of Hootsie and constantly gushes over him.
----
* CutenessProximity: Mumei tends to gush and swoon over how cute Hootsie is.
* IronButtMonkey: In Mumei's 3D showcase, Mumei subjects Hootsie to a lot of would-be physical trauma, including using him as a baseball and kicking him in the air. However, Mumei affirms Hootsie that is all right and enjoys it.
* ParentalFavoritism: Mumei unsubtly favors Hootsie over Friend as her mascot.
* RidiculouslyCuteCritter: Mumei sure thinks so, finding the small owl to be absolutely adorable.
* ShoutOut: In Mumei's 3D showcase, Hootsie is given his own segment called "Hootsie's Footsies", which parodies ''WesternAnimation/BluesClues''. In this segment, Hootsie will stamp various objects with a footprint to serve as clues for what Hootsie wants to do.

[[foldercontrol]]
[[folder:A-I]]
* AbsurdPhobia:
** Admits that ''copy printers'' make her uneasy - particularly the way paper crumples up when they jam, and the sound they make when that happens.
** She has developed one to ''Gura'' following their first interaction on ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}'' where Gura's prank goes wrong and resulted in Gura [[AccidentalMurder accidentally killing Mumei]]. From that point onwards Mumei is [[ProperlyParanoid terrified to borderline PTSD levels]] whenever she sees the Ender Dragon head that Gura likes to wear. This has faded over time when she and Gura properly talked and collabed, becoming fairly good friends.
** As revealed during her playthrough of Resident Evil 7, balloons popping. The birthday puzzle sends her into hysterics when she encounters the balloon room.
* ActuallyPrettyFunny: During a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q1aSvJ4MQdE superchat stream]], after she laments [[LameComeback not having a good comeback]] to a laconic red superchat, another red superchat jokes out that Mumei doesn't have comebacks because owls are non-migratory birds. Mumei is left speechless.
-->'''Mumei''': In this moment I feel like I want to give ''you'' $100!
* AdaptationalCurves: While Mumei is depicted rather modestly in her [=Live2D=] model and associated official character art, but in [=holoweEN=] episode 3 -- which she's depicted more animalistic and monstrous -- her legs and hips are far bigger than usual, which both [[https://youtu.be/1sV8vsbqkSI Mumei]] and [[https://youtu.be/8rKL6lGsyvQ Fauna]] took notice of.
* AffectionateNickname: Has a few.
** She's called "[=MeiMei=]" by Fauna, Sana, and Bae, the latter of whom also calls her "Mumei-shi".
** Calli also calls her Kyawatori [[note]]A combination of "kyawaii", a childish mispronunciation of "kawaii", meaning "cute"; and "tori", meaning "bird"[[/note]] (counterpointing her nickname for Kiara, Kusotori).
** Gura refers to her as "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=55AtIVI0w1A Moom]]", coined as part of a goofy portrait of Mumei drawn on a ''Passpartout'' stream, which would later be adopted by the Hoomans as well.
* TheAgeless: Her age is listed as just "??????", due to her forgetting her exact age. Given the trends of of the rest of the Council, she's likely as old as recorded civilization. [[note]]Putting her somewhere between 5,000 and 6,000 years old, making her the youngest of the Council.[[/note]]
* {{Angrish}}: When frustrated, Mumei turns a screeching MotorMouth and blends words together.
* AnimalMotifs: Officially, Mumei is themed after an owl (specifically a barn owl by her own admission, although the tufts of feather on her head are typically more characteristic of true owls instead), but the fandom also likes to compare her to the kiwi bird in the same vein as Nene being referred to as a seal, which has somewhat become a thing among Hololive after members like Reine and Sana started calling her one.
* ApologisesALot: Mostly tied to her forgetfulness.
* ArsonMurderAndJaywalking: The "Dan Dan" video shows Mumei happily causing disasters through history. The Bubonic Plague, sinking the Titanic, destroying Atlantis, Kronii's traumatic moment where the ice cream truck drove away-- all of which she just smiles and lets happen. Not returning a shopping cart to the corral in the parking lot? Now she's furious.
* AscendedFangirl: Mumei reveals her oshi before joining Hololive [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bP3zfFROC0g was in fact Korone]]. Getting to finally meet Korone during the 2021 sports festival was a huge fangirl moment for Mumei and a dream come true.
* AttentionDeficitOohShiny: While she has admitted to having a small attention span, it's most evident in her ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}'' streams when no one else is keeping her on track; she'll go for any coal to mine, berries to gather, or animals to hunt, often overlooking any risks in doing so.
* BadassBoast: She gives a surprising one when Kronii asks why she's such a daredevil.
--> '''Mumei:''' I fear nothing and nobody.
* BedsheetGhost: She went as one for Halloween 2021, claiming that she accidentally died and came back as a ghost. During the Meme Review, she considered the comparison between "Boomei" and [[Myth/EgyptianMythology Medjed]] possibly being more than a coincidence.
* BeenThereShapedHistory:
** Implied. She has stated that "Nanashi Mumei" is neither her first nor her only name, just the most recent one she remembers, and she has been shepherding human civilization for thousands of years. Her portfolio also happens to be largely congruent with that of [[Myth/ClassicalMythology Athena]]. This suggests that Mumei may have inspired or been mistaken for at least one prominent goddess from human history.
** During the Council game show, she mentioned she was collecting fleas for "something" in the year 1346, the same year that TheBlackDeath devastated Europe, shaping a lot of modern civilization.
** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RRq4-uktHiI "Dan Dan" video]] shows that Mumei was also the cause of the sinking of the ''Titanic'' and the destruction of ''Atlantis''. While not the intent of animator Kanauru, she is also seen holding a bottle of ethanol in front of the ''Challenger'' shuttle as it is exploding; as ethanol breaks down rubber and the rubber o-rings are part of why the shuttle failed, it's implied she intentionally caused the disaster by sabotaging its internals with the bottle.
* BerserkButton: Don't send her superchats as "ticket purchases" for her Karaoke streams. They are free. Repeat offenders will be smacked with a gavel.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: She is noted to have one of the biggest gap moe out of the EN girls. Despite her sweet and somewhat timid demeanor, she can be pretty intimidating when she wants to, particularly because she [[DissonantSerenity never loses her usual smile and chipper tone]] even when saying threatening remarks or committing acts of extraordinary violence.
** Kronii in her first ''Hollow Knight'' stream remarked on a case where she snapped. The nature of said case has never been elaborated on.
** Mumei is revealed to be quite proficient at ''Apex''. During her first Apex collab with Bae and Ollie, Mumei immediately racked up the highest amount of kills.
** Her artwork can get pretty demented, with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qCnuzDL1nRw her portrait of Suisei]] in ''Passpartout'' being the most infamous example. Said piece of art has been used as a JumpScare, startling [[https://youtu.be/K9mM3YO9SRo?t=5998 Bae during hololive EN's Halloween collab]] and various members of the Japanese branch as part of Mumei's special skill in ''VideoGame/HoloCure'', with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVGkq-GqQic Matsuri]] getting the worst of it.
* BilingualBonus:
** [[https://www.reddit.com/r/Hololive/comments/p5x5fm/so_i_was_wondering_if_the_glyphs_on_mumeis_cowl/ Her cloak has Egyptian hieroglyphs]] listing out the SevenDeadlySins.
** The ᚱ rune in her hair stands for "[[WalkingTheEarth Journey]]" while ᛟ on her brooch stands for "Ancestry".
* BirdsOfAFeather: To Gura, with many noticing just how similar the two girls are. Both of them started off as TheCutie of their generation, before showing off a BewareTheNiceOnes side of less Seiso behavior. Both also have tendencies of being airheaded and forgetful, with many strange living habits. It’s even to the point where their voices sound similar and they can impersonate one another.
* BokeAndTsukkomiRoutine: When Mumei and Kronii collab together, Mumei doubles down on her {{Cloudcuckoolander}} and {{Troll}} habits while Kronii is TheComicallySerious and EnragedByIdiocy.
* BreakingOldTrends: She is the first and only [=HoloBird=] to not have a different species attributed to her by the fandom. It took Reine and Sana comparing her to a kiwi for something to take, yet most of her listeners are content to continue calling her an owl. She also doesn't mind being called a kiwi because she thinks they're cute. During the first [=HoloTori=] collab, where all the other bird girls stated their actual bird species while denying their meme bird species, Mumei's response was “I am an owl, not a [[{{Portmanteau}} TOWL]]”[[note]]TOWL being a nickname from her viewers meaning “Toxic Owl”[[/note]].
* BreakingTheFourthWall: Will sometimes clarify when she's actually forgotten something as opposed to playing out her ForgetfulJones gimmick.
* BrickJoke: During September 2021, Bae decided to prank call Mumei by wishing her Happy Birthday when it wasn’t, not for Mumei to gaslight Bae by pretending she was actually fooled. A year later in August when it actually was Mumei’s birthday, Bae and Mumei bring this up again with Bae first asking Mumei if she was sure it was her birthday, before the birthday call-in where Mumei claimed it wasn’t her birthday when Bae dropped by to wish this for her.
* ButHeSoundsHandsome: During the [[SpearCounterpart Ministry]] collab stream, there was a moment where Mumei's voice changer briefly turned off for whatever reason, revealing her own voice. While the other boys thought Mumei sounded cute, Muman himself described Mumei as sounding "ugly".
* ChildHater: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7ZYfyOHpz0 Has gone on record calling children Civilization's worst invention]].
* ClingyJealousGirl: To Bae. After Mumei discovered Bae had acquired a roommate in Minecraft named Mason (a random NPC Villager), [[https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=3pwPnwivH9g Mumei immediately become hostile towards Mason, tried to convince Bae to leave him, and expressed desires to remove or kill him]].
* CovertPervert: Normally content to just tease with not-so-InnocentInnuendo, but her sponsored stream of ''VideoGame/BlueArchive'' [[https://youtu.be/Ws_7VH83bCk brought out a different side of her.]] Prior to that, there was the ''Film/ScaryMovie'' [[https://youtu.be/-cQdFO8Jce8 watchalong with IRyS.]] She has also confessed to being a casual browser of lewd fanart of her gen-mates, or as she calls it, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E3DqivbNlds being an "anatomy enjoyer."]]
* CrazyCatLady: Self-admitted Crazy ''Fox'' Lady in ''Minecraft''. Her room is filled with an ever-increasing amount of free-roaming snow foxes. This is probably related to them sharing her TrademarkFavoriteFood.
* CrazyPrepared: {{Implied|Trope}}. Her debut showed a page out of her notebook with entries about the other EN members, two of them explicitly about how to deal with a shark and a phoenix.
* CreepySouvenir: The pair of feathers at the top of her head are not natural parts of her body, but [[https://youtu.be/YWchjjm-Yxw?t=3218 accessories]] that she wears [[BattleTrophy for intimidation]]. One has to wonder who was the unfortunate victim she took them from.
-->'''Mumei:''' Oh these? These feathers aren't actually pinned in my head. They're my trophies, that I wear...as a warning.
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Despite her ditzy and cutesy demeanor, Mumei is secretly a force to be reckoned with.
** Her debut stream reveals that she has a notebook filled with [[CrazyPrepared methods of taking out the various members of Hololive]], especially Gura and Kiara, not unlike Batman's infamous [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PAVy8wY0mgw contingency plans]] to wipe out a rogue Justice League.
** As demonstrated in her ''VideoGame/DeadByDaylight'' stream, Mumei is actually pretty terrifying and merciless as a Killer, giggling like mad as she injures and kills her gen mates. Furthermore, her usual brand of DissonantSerenity absolutely freaks everyone out as she dishes out {{Implied Death Threat}}s without breaking character.
* CuteAndPsycho: Her cute demeanor belies a killer spirit that is not unlike Suisei. Fans got a glimpse in her art streams and a full display in the EN ''VideoGame/DeadByDaylight'' collab when it was her turn to hunt, where she went full [[PsychopathicManchild Psychopathic Womanchild]] as she maimed and killed her genmates while giggling like a kid on Christmas. It doesn't detract from her cuteness.
-->'''Mumei (commenting on Kiara's "[[Music/Deco27 Vampire]]" music vid):''' I am good at making blood, you can have some!
* CuteButCacophonic: Zigzagged as while normally soft-spoken, she can get pretty loud if agitated enough.
* CuteOwl: Both Mumei and her owl mascot look precious.
* TheCutie: Mumei embodies this more than any girl of her generation, being kind, soft-spoken, a bit forgetful, and somewhat more innocent than her peers. Her fanbase, genmates, ''and'' senpais fall straight into CutenessProximity around her, to the point where when she visits the Council's other streams, they tend to forget what they're doing to fawn over her. Even Kronii, who is normally cool and aloof, has a tendency to melt in her presence. Her Halloween costume for 2021 (a BedsheetGhost) causes [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jtaGw6Vrt0w even Ame to fawn over her]], even though Ame was the one who designed it in the first place. Mumei even manages to fawn over ''herself'' when it comes to fangames like ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DLHT72z-bPw Mumei no Toshi]]'' and ''[[https://youtu.be/c93zuvz12uU?t=8888 HoloCure]]''.
* DeadpanSnarker: Mumei can be amazingly deadpan and is prone to snarkily LampshadeHanging and BreakingTheFourthWall.
* DeityOfHumanOrigin: While Mumei is neither a god nor a human who ascended to godhood, she does represent a founding concept that was established by human society, while the rest embody aspects of nature and physics. Her bio makes a reference to this, with her being the only Council member to have not been created by the Gods.
* ADogNamedDog: The bag friend remains with NoNameGiven because "my friend" is easier to remember. It also has "friend" written on it in runes. She also has a dog named... "Animal".
* DissonantSerenity:
** While playing ''VideoGame/IronLung'' the ambient creepy noises barely affect her, and she's more focused on piloting the sub without crashing. When the monster attacks at the end of the playthrough, instead of being spooked by its JumpScare, she's just irritated that the sub was destroyed before laughing at her journey's abrupt end.
** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04X42qloONk "Dan Dan"]] mv has Mumei singing a cheerful and cute song while blissfully causing and enjoying Hololive-themed equivalents to momentous events in human history such as: TheBlackDeath, the sinking of the Titanic, and the destruction of Atlantis.
* DropTheHammer: She has four gavels, for reasons she can't quite remember, and has taken to using one of them to deal with unruly superchats as of February 2022.
* EmbarrassingNickname: She does not like being called a "Towl" (Toxic Owl). Popped up during an ''Overwatch'' stream where she mentioned to the other other EN girls that the Hoomans started calling her "Fowl" for "Funny Owl". The girls then started calling her "Towl" to reflect her toxic behavior.
* FanGirl:
** She doesn't want to single any of her EN senpai out as a favorite, but mentions watching Ina's streams the most.
** She shared to Sana that Korone is both the first Hololiver she's ever seen and her oshi.
* FashionableAsymmetry: Directly remarked in her debut when talking about her outfit, which has asymmetrical stockings. She then thanks her papa for giving her a fashionable outfit.
* TheFool: Prone to running into danger or causing mischief with cheerful obliviousness, especially when paired with Kronii. Things generally work out for her though.
* ForgetfulJones: Her defining characteristic is that she can't remember what she just said moments earlier, and despite being the avatar of Civilization, has forgotten most of what Humanity has ever accomplished. Forgetting things is one of her dislikes. She does remember that she was at one point quite intelligent and not as forgetful in the past, but has had her memory weakened over the ages.
-->'''Mumei:''' [[RunningGag I forget things a lot, not sure if I mentioned that.]]
* ForgotTheirOwnBirthday: Bae made a PrankCall to Mumei during her ''Rimworld'' stream (September 24) hoping this would be the case. Mumei played along with it so well, after she started wondering if she ReallyWasBornYesterday, Bae was incredibly confused. Since then, every year Bae has followed up wishing Mumei Happy Birthday on this date, causing further confusion from Mumei.
* ForTheEvulz: Played for Laughs. She quotes the trope image provider, in that many of her acts of spreading chaos in games is because she wants to watch the world burn.
* FreakyIsCool: Mumei is like Botan in that, not only is she completely unfazed from horror games, she gets excitement from buddying up with someone vulnerable to scares.
* TheGadfly: A lot of her forgetfulness is actually her ObfuscatingStupidity where she feigns forgetfulness to mess with people. She also sometimes enjoys unsettling people with FreakyIsCool behavior and/or creepy remarks.
** When Bae tried to prank her by pretending it was Mumei's birthday, Mumei plays along making Bae think she did actually believe it was her birthday and had forgotten. Bae is left utterly confused on if Mumei is being genuine or not.
** She enjoys occasionally provoking Kronii's ObsessivelyOrganized tendencies in ''Minecraft'', such as by planting plants in the wrong field, deliberately un-organizing her sorted chests again, hopping around in her fields or replacing the blocks in her living space with blocks of a slightly different color. Not to mention planting berries everywhere.
** During Calli's tea party stream, she outright admitted that she likes making provocative or nonsensical statements without the elaboration required to make them easier to swallow, just to see how people will react.
* GoroawaseNumber: Na-na-shi Mumei released a [[https://shop.hololivepro.com/en/products/nanashimumei_77-4thou special merchandise set]] in celebration of reaching 774k subscribers.
* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Bae, with it being stated several times that the two of them are best friends. Though at times, Mumei makes some not-so-subtle implications that her feelings towards Bae are ''more than just friends''. The irony of them being [[PredatorPreyFriendship an owl and rat]] is not lost on them.
* HiddenBuxom: While not completely downplaying her bustline, removing her cape shows that she's nicely sized with her shirt having a CleavageWindow.
* HiddenDepths:
** Despite being a forgetful NiceGirl compared to the far more forceful and assertive personalities of her genmates, the opening to her debut stream has her go over the major events of Sana, Fauna, and Kronii's debuts, specifically pointing out their flaws, and especially how they negatively affect humanity (Sana's impulsivity and power resulting in her destroying the Earth, Fauna's {{Yandere}} tendencies towards mankind hindering their development, noting that history occurred naturally despite Kronii being asleep since before the Big Bang), showing that she very much takes her role as Guardian of Civilization seriously and isn't amused by the issues her genmates have caused for humans. And the way she speaks about them, saying things like "these beings" and "us little folks", shows that she views herself as having more in common with humans than with the rest of the Council.
** The exact level of her drawing ability wasn't mentioned in her debut outside of her drawing her loading screen, making her drawing of a very realistic peafowl head as part of her first drawing stream and subsequent artistic showcases in ''Passpartout'' surprising to many. Her taste for nightmarish [[https://redd.it/pzmk4x "cursed" drawings]] is also surprising to say the least.
** She seems to enjoy trolling her genmates, with some acts and displays of apparent forgetfulness and recklessness clearly just being intentional mischief. She also messes with them by acting mildly psychotic. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S1dNdpMytJ0 She even tried to destroy the world for her own amusement once]]!
** Despite her general [[TheCutie persona]], she's alluded to being a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7t6T2pigDX0 metalhead]] and later confirmed it on stream.
** As she shared with Calli, she's a theatre kid and once played the titular character of ''Theatre/{{Annie}}'' for a school production. Musical theatre songs also feature regularly in her unarchived karaoke streams.
** In her impromptu ''Apex Legends'' collab with Ollie and Bae, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tgbB46qku9M Mumei shows herself to be pretty proficient in the game]].
** She has a headstrong streak at least in asking for or accepting help.
** While people were originally surprised by Mumei's more headstrong and dangerous elements, it all lines up with her role as the Guardian of Civilization. Obsession with the collection of resources? Ruthless and creative extermination of enemies? Exploitation of the natural world and refusal to make way for anyone? It all matches the behavior of many human civilizations throughout history. Even her forgetfulness could be constructed as humanity's tendency to not remember the lessons of the past.
* TheHyena: Bae mentioned that Mumei laughs easily even at minor amusements, which has been proven true (especially when [[TheComicallySerious Kronii]] is involved).
* HypocriticalHumor: She wants to see the other girls in bikinis so she can see their belly buttons but would wear a one-piece herself because she refuses to display her own. She fully acknowledges this when pressed on it by the rest of the [=SNOTcast=].
--> '''Mumei:''' I think I would prefer a one-piece.\\
'''Fauna:''' You were just saying 'no one-pieces allowed'.\\
'''Gura:''' Yeah. What the heck?\\
'''Mumei:''' Okay. I don't know what on Earth makes you all think rules apply to me, but...
* IdiotHair: It's a little hard to notice in the official art due to it being at just the right angle for it to blend into the hair behind it, but she has a single long cowlick right at the center of her head, reflecting her [[TheDitz ditzy]] nature.
* ImageSong: Mumei has one in the form of a single simply titled "mumei", which summarizes the melancholy side of her character's backstory, describing how while she felt lost and lonely for as long as she could remember (and as stated by the opening lines, "[[LossOfIdentity All I remember is that I forgot]]"), [[TheAntiNihilist she'll continue exploring the dark, uncertain world in the neverending search for that "someone" that will find her peace]], even if she will ultimately remain [[BilingualBonus nameless]].
* InformedFlaw: Being isolated from the other Council members in her lore. The others in reality adore her, enough to sidetrack them should she pop in their streams.
* InsistentTerminology: She absolutely refuses to call Website/TwitterX by its new name and proclaims that she will never accept it.
* IronicName: She represents the influence of civilization on the world (i.e. a mark), though her first name is a Japanese homophone for the word "unmarked" ("無銘," also pronounced "Mumei").
* {{Irony}}:
** Despite her stated role as the protector of civilization, Mumei is by far the most actively antagonistic toward it and most of the details revealed about her backstory show her wreaking havoc on humanity and destroying its creations. Contrast that with Fauna, the embodiment of nature, who largely averts GaiasVengeance and seems content to passively invite Mumei and people to live in the forest with her, or Bae, the embodiment of chaos, whose only confirmed roles in history's chaos are either accidental or were done under Mumei's orders.
** Despite her reputation as TheCutie of the group, Mumei displays an [[BewareTheNiceOnes underlying psychotic side]] where she takes glee in games where she gets to kill or inflict harm upon others.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:L-W]]
* LampshadeHanging: During her 3D debut, she says that it's a miracle that the lantern she always carries with her hasn't caught herself on fire.
* LiteralMinded: Takes being wished a happy birthday to mean she [[ReallyWasBornYesterday was just born that day]], and when Kronii says she wants to throw hands with Fauna, [[https://youtu.be/rddtxQkxIvA Mumei asks what size hands she wants.]]
* LoopholeAbuse:
** When discussing the "Omen" PV, Mumei argues that she is ''not'' Civilization itself but rather its Guardian, and thus should be absolved of any blame in Nature's corruption.
** During a Minecraft collab with Kiara, Mumei is asked if she's ever sworn on stream before. Mumei then proceeds to teach Kiara that certain swear words should be fine to use if used in their alternate meanings, such as "ass" and "bitch" [[note]]Referring to a donkey and a female dog respectively[[/note]].
* MeaningfulName: Similarly to IronicName above, her surname, Nanashi, is a homophone for "nameless" or "anonymous" (名無し, also transliterated as Nanashi).
* MellowFellow: Her default tone of voice is best described as "precocious" and much of her humor is derived from saying things that are suggestive or even [[CuteAndPsycho downright disturbing]] in the exact same tone of voice.
* MixAndMatchCritter: Has a pet that she has described as "The creature that is both cat and dog." To date, she has never addressed it by what species of animal it is, but instead as "The Animal." Furthermore, when a viewer tried to include Animal in their drawing for her 500K subscriber celebration, she commended them on how good a job they did with no reference, but they left out its scales, suggesting it also has reptilian qualities.
* MomentKiller: Mumei's 3D showcase begins with her wandering about various civilizations throughout history while a serene tune plays. This is then suddenly interrupted when her phone starts playing the Holotori Dance as her ringtone.
* {{Motifs}}: Gears. Several were seen scattered around her during her introduction, her clothing has several gear-shaped adornments, and she's represented on the Council's logo by one. Fittingly, they're typically used to represent machinery, a human creation integral to the development of civilization.
* MustHaveCaffeine: Zigzagged. While decaf tea makes her stomach upset, actually caffeinated drinks like coffee tend to keep her active for more than half a day instead of mere hours like the typical person and can [[TheNightOwl interfere with her sleep schedule, leading to uncharacteristic behavior]].
* NameAmnesia: Has forgotten her name, along with many other things, simply calling herself "unmarked" and "nameless".
* NeverGivenAName: Her little floating paper bag friend is deliberately left TheNameless because Mumei would never forgive herself for forgetting his name and she's pretty sure she would.
* NiceGirl: On top of her backstory painting her as kind to humanity, on her debut, she mentions that it's not likely to see her disappointed expression as she understands humans make mistakes, thus not really holding anything against them. Even her gadfly tendencies lack malice.
* NightmareFace: A RunningGag with her drawings is her tendency to turn a cute face into a nightmarish abomination. The most common traits among her "cursed drawings" are [[MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily rows of fangs]] and [[RedEyesTakeWarning glowing red eyes]]. Her infamous cursed portrait from her third ''Passpartout'' stream has become a chat emote known as "nightmare", which appears a lot whenever Mumei acts aggressively. It ''also'' gets used as a greeting, especially to new members, as her fanbase has [[HumansAreTheRealMonsters adopted it as their unofficial representation of themselves.]]
* NightmareFetishist: Besides generally cute things she also likes drawing {{Nightmare Face}}s, hearing the screams of pain and watching monsters die.
* NightmareFuelStationAttendant: For as much as she draws dark and twisted things, she fails to see them as such and passes it off as completely normal. For example, she comments that the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wpXxZMSHOTA&t=2827s "OH" face]] she was drawing was "kinda cute" as she finished adding fangs and a long tongue to it.
* TheNightOwl: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MojjRIiZaZI She usually becomes this after drinking caffeinated tea or coffee]], and the accompanying uncharacteristic behavior is why she was slapped with a caffeine ban by Bae.
* NoSell: She is practically immune to horror and an attempt by her fellow idols to scare her merely got a "That's it?"
* NoSenseOfDirection: Not helped by her attention span or her forgetful nature, she will get lost if given enough time unattended to.
* NoodleIncident: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0Yx41koJeU She appears to have dabbled in]] ''cannibalism'' at some point during her long lifespan.
* ObfuscatingStupidity:
** Mumei isn't quite as forgetful as she lets on. Sometimes she will intentionally play it up to gaslight her friends, such as [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ANP93am42QY making Bae think]] she actually had been convinced it was her birthday.
** Occasionally inverted. [[https://youtu.be/dRXVVKej11A?t=4173 By her own admission]], her TheGadfly tendencies are often not on purpose, but rather genuine mishaps, yet because people assume she is deploying ObfuscatingStupidity, she reacts with SureLetsGoWithThat and just plays along as if it was all planned.
* OhCrap: When discussing what led to Civilization corrupting Nature in the "Omen" PV, Kronii suggests that as a record keeper, Mumei would had to have kept her records on paper. Since paper is most commonly made from wood and Fauna is MotherNature, Mumei immediately and nervously denies using paper.
-->'''Mumei:''' Oh. Wait! No I don't! No I don't! No, I don't write on paper!\\
'''Kronii:''' Where do you write it then?\\
'''Mumei:''' I forgot! No, it's not on paper! It's not from trees! It's nothing like that!\\
'''Fauna:''' Ehhhh? Trees?\\
'''Mumei:''' [[RapidFireNo No no no no nonono!]]
* OminousOwl: She's normally more of a CuteOwl but sometimes displays [[CuteButPsycho worrying tendencies]], to say nothing about the NightmareFuel of her infamous drawings. Civilization is far from all sunshine and roses, after all.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness:
** After her ''Minecraft'', where she suffered a prank of Gura's gone wrong, she made [[https://twitter.com/nanashimumei_en/status/1435081824284381184 this tweet]] which says "I will remember.."
** Somewhat downplayed, with Mumei's unhealthy obsession with berries in ''Minecraft'' juxtaposed with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jym1yz-QpHg her rant on how she doesn't like blueberries all that much]]. Even then, the chat went wild as soon as she said it.
* OrnamentalWeapon: Mumei often reminds others of her dagger, as she is never seen using it for actual combat and leaves it hanging on her skirt.
* TheOwlKnowingOne: Chose her owl motif to represent her knowledge and wisdom as the embodiment of Civilization. Tends to come out the most in her ASMR streams, which are best described as "Library ASMR".
* PaperThinDisguise: She filled in for Muman looking like this in Ministry's February 2023 meetup, with her simply wearing sunglasses and having a pasted-on mustache.
* PerpetualSmiler: Much like Ame, Mumei does not use her model's sad face even when she's quite evidently feeling sad or angry.
* PointlessBandAid: Her paper bag friend has a band-aid cross on its cheek.
* PunnyName:
** [[RuleOfThree Another potential interpretation of her name]] is that it essentially means "Who Who". Her motif is an [[OwlsAskWho owl]].
** Reflecting both her owl-like nature and affinity to mankind, her fandom named themselves "Hoomans". The option that didn't get picked was the much more obvious "Who-mans".
* TheQuietOne: Pre-debut on Twitter, she was the one who tweeted the least, and when she does they tend to be short simple replies. This changed post-debut where she tweets much more frequently.
* ReclaimedByNature: Mumei's own special performance stage in her 3D Showcase was a collection of old ruins mostly covered in moss. Mumei said that it wasn't Fauna's property just yet.
* RecognitionFailure: Mumei apparently does not know who YAGOO is, failing to recognize him from [[https://youtu.be/dJx7y-GyM_M the YAGOO statue in the JP Minecraft server]] and [[https://youtu.be/ZsTLAZr92xU a video of YAGOO in real life]]. This ended up become a recoccuring thing with Mumei always claiming not to know Yagoo when seeing him.
* {{Sadist}}: Bae accused her of this after Mumei revealed that the idea of a scared Bae made her feel excited (Bae was playing a horror game and called Mumei in for emotional support). Mumei's CuteAndPsycho tendencies and affinity for TheJoysOfTorturingMooks do not help the impression, either.
* SayingSoundEffectsOutLoud: She loves to accompany her superchat readings by giving two gentle knocks on her desk while saying "don don" with the knocks.
* ShipTease: Like Kronii, she seems to be on board with their ship and likes to tease it. Notably, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GpkYr7Hk4X4 during Kronii's December 11th 2021 stream]] of ''Minecraft'', she dragged Kronii into Reine's room in order to recreate a silly [[invoked]]{{Shipping}} fanfic with her which Reine has lying around in her room and which involves a SuggestiveCollision where both lovers "accidentally" trip and stumble onto the bed, with one on top of the other. She had [=IRyS=] read it out for them as they did so, and explicitly asked her to substitute her and Kronii's names (the original fic is about Reine and the reader).
* ShrinkingViolet: She mentions having some difficulty talking to people and it shows when she communicates with people outside of her generation: In her interaction with Gura during their simultaneous ''Minecraft'' streams, she greets her senpai rather formally and insists on not bothering her with sleeping for some amount of time even as chat explains to her ''Minecraft'' sleeping etiquette. It takes Gura pranking her for her to loosen up some. Following the EN off-collab in late February 2022, Mumei also admitted to being extremely shy around people in the service industry, always sending Kronii in her stead when she needed to ask for something rather than just doing it herself.
* SignatureHeadgear: The owl feathers on her head aren't actually hers, they're like trophies.
* SignatureLaugh: She has a distinctly high-pitched and raspy giggle, as demonstrated [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uT0Z_vOMwE0&t=25s here.]]
* SignificantBirthDate: Mumei's birthday, August 4, is International Owl Awareness Day.
* SleepDeprivation: This brought on by caffeine causes Mumei to have an implied mean streak.
* SleepyHead: Seemingly started to nod off midstream on multiple occasions in the first few months after her debut, especially when a stream goes past 1 AM Eastern/10 PM Pacific. Even more frequently, she'll be awake enough to manage but still noticeably sleepy (and will mention it in case it wasn't obvious), leading to her chat worrying about her almost as much as Korone's despite her not sharing the dog's penchant for marathon streams. As of early 2022, however, this is a far less frequent occurrence.
* SpeaksFluentAnimal: Subverted. Although she made an attempt at communicating, Mumei's bird language fluency stops at her making [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zN7cpBdYMbU "turkey" noises]], ostensibly as a way to appeal to Reine who is commonly referred to as such despite her peafowl design.
* StealthPun: Mumei, who is an ''owl'' (''fukuro''), has a friend who is a living paper ''bag'' (''fukuro'').
* StepfordSmiler: She is said to have a pitiable aura, yet she is seen smiling.
* StylisticSuck: From her drawing streams, Mumei's art skills seem to be rather impressive if she ever decides to draw properly. The thing is that she's more content with making goofy doodles most of the time instead, the quality of which is of a strangely captivating mix of genuine talent and dubiousness that has to be seen to be believed.
* SurprisinglyCreepyMoment: She is this to the Japanese hololive members who assume she's just TheCutie of EN. This is most obvious with the [[https://youtu.be/4Y8i_rI9ZVs various JP reactions]] to Mumei's LimitBreak in ''VideoGame/HoloCure'', which consists of her "mistake" painting from ''Passpartout'' briefly filling the screen, accompanied by a ScareChord, and wiping everything out. Almost everyone was spooked by it to some degree, with Matsuri outright screaming at it.
* TokenGoodTeammate: While none of the Council are explicitly ''evil'' (except for arguably Kronii), her description is notably the only one that is not condescending to mankind in general, and in fact seems to hold no malice. She even offered the creation of paper. Given she is an embodiment not of divine origin, this is probably to be expected. However, outside of lore, this could flip to TokenEvilTeammate at times as she has the [[CuteButPsycho most psychopathic tendencies among them]] and is implied by lore to be responsible for [[BeenThereShapedHistory orchestrating several horrors and tragedies throughout history]]. In fact, she seems to be the only one on the Council who intentionally wreaks havoc on humanity at large, since most of the harm done by the others is either accidental or BadBoss tendencies contained to people who joined them willingly.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Mumei started incorporating berries into her character lore after becoming oddly obsessed with the berries in ''Minecraft''.
* UnwantedHarem: ''All'' of Council (and even some others outside of it) wants Mumei as their own, though most prominently between Kronii and Fauna. Numerous ship battles have occurred over who gets to be with her.
* VerbalTic: Like an owl, she often says "Who? Who?" and "Oh? Oh?" She also frequently ends sentences with "you see." Also, she tends to say "ayayay" when mildly frustrated. She is also known for calling her chat "sillies" in response to banter.
* WalkingTheEarth: She's constantly traveling, which is fitting for a representation of Civilization. Naturally, mud is one of her dislikes.
* WhatIsEvil: Mumei was forced to respond after having repeatedly been called evil. She has stated that from her point of view she isn't, claiming she only does what comes to mind in the moment at any given time, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SdJ_SQzvMNw but if some people think her actions are evil, that is their problem, not hers]]. She also invoked her status as Guardian of Civilization all the while, adding a bit of AboveGoodAndEvil and OmniscientMoralityLicense to the mix.
* WomanOfAThousandVoices: She has some range in her voice, from the incidental shifts to a death metal voice, to her dead on "ikemen" voice, to a surprisingly good ''[[WesternAnimation/KingOfTheHill Hank Hill]]'' impression of all things. Best shown off in an unarchived karaoke stream where she did "[[Theatre/LesMiserables One Day More]]" all by herself with a different voice for each character. There's also her uncanny ability to imitate Gura, to the point that others think Gura suddenly showed up. This has even worked on Gura herself.
