Seemingly the most normal-looking of Hololive EN Myth, turns out she is actually a time traveling detective. Ame has a reputation of being a salty gamer due to her stubbornness and frustration with games at times, sometimes even trash talking her opponents. Still, she is sweet as she is salty, always hyping up and helping out her genmates whenever she can. She likes to play FPS games and puzzle games, as well as platformers, and does a chatting stream each week.

Associated characters: Bubba (pet), Alternate Amelia Watsons (Smol Ame, Bee Ame, Amelia Buffson, Armando Watson), JEnMa-chan note  (former manager) / HEnMa (current manager), Watoto (Hunter: The Vigil character)

    A-E 
  • Abnormal Limb Rotation Range: Doubles as a Major Injury Underreaction. During Hololive EN's second full-team livestream, a.k.a the origin of the infamous "Bottom Left" meme, Amelia's character model got glitched several times throughout the whole thing, causing her left arm from the elbow down to swivel in a weird direction. While the others and the chat were quick to notice, Amelia herself was rather blasé about it.
    Amelia: [indifferently] My arm broke...
  • Action Girl: She has an energetic and adventurous nature, as well as a love for action-packed games. This showcases her bravery and willingness to take on challenges, adding excitement and intensity to her gameplay streams.
  • Actually Pretty Funny: She finds the oversized boobs Gura put on her monument in Minecraft hilarious and decided to keep them, despite previously disliking how the statue looked with a similarly-huge bust that she built herself. Additionally, when the Shiranui Kensetsu group paid a visit to the EN side of the server, they decided to vandalize it by putting wooden buttons on the boobs to serve as nipples and placing a sign at the crotch of the statue to claim their handiwork, which Ame also approved of.
  • Aerith and Bob: Compared to her other HoloMyth costars, she has the most natural name for non-Asian audiences.
  • Affectionate Nickname: "Ame", used by Gura, Ina, and Kiara. According to Gura, she uses it when Amelia is being cute, while "Watson" is used when she is being a Watson.
  • Alternate Self: As a time traveler, there are multiple different Ames from different timelines. Usually, these Ames are nearly identical in terms of personality, just being suited to whatever she's streaming. For instance, during a playthrough of Bus Simulator, she uses her Walfie model and introduces herself as another Ame, but is otherwise just the same ol' Ame. The one time this didn't happen was during a VR stream, where smol Ame (using her 3D VR model) and, as she put it, big Ame (her regular model), both appeared at the same time and as seemingly two distinct Ames, with this Smol Ame being a little more mean and somewhat bratty. It should be noted that the "usual" Ame is technically not Ame "Prime", assuming there is one, as ours hailed from Dimension #1337.
  • Ambiguously Bi: While her exact sexuality is not confirmed, she did refer to her HoloMyth costars as her "four girlfriends", and she is a serial flirt towards them. At the same time, when asked if she prefers yuri or yaoi, she replied that she likes both, and later revealed she's read slash fiction starring the Sniper and the Spy from Team Fortress 2. When looking up herself on Akinator, her response to the question "Is your character homosexual?" was "invokedI don't know", although that could have just been her going along with how she assumed others would answer (since Akinator is basically a "20 questions" game that makes guesses based on how people have answered in the past).
  • Animal Lover: Has two dogs (Bubba and Miki) and two cats (Wellington and Henry), and also has extensive knowledge of how to care for fish and aquatic life. She also volunteered at an animal shelter one time, which is how she met her cat Wellington, who was normally pretty anti social but took a liking to Ame. On June 5th, 2021, she hosted a charity stream to support the Best Friends Animal Society, which raised tens of thousands of dollars before she even began streaming, totaled out to over $235k by the end of the stream, and she donated personally to local animal shelters.
  • Animal Motifs:
    • Alligators, thanks to her membership (investigators), which was really cemented after her Later Alligator stream. Lots of art depicts her with alligators, which represent her fans, and a few streams even has a little gator as a Head Pet or attached to her somehow. She even has a space ship backdrop that she uses alongside her astronaut outfit, with a bunch of 3D models (or herself) just floating around in zero gravity, with an alligator being one of 'em (done by Hasksoft). For her birthday stream in Jan 2024, she even became the owner of a saloon called the Crispy Gator Saloon, populated by little alligators.
    • She's also usually associated with dogs because of her dog Bubba, who serves as her mascot. One of her casual outfit combinations even has a little Bubba resting on top of her hat.
    • Bees, due to getting a bee-themed 3D model which she uses every now and then.
  • Animals Hate Him: Ironically enough for a dog owner and lover, she has a history of being bitten by dogs, with one of them seemingly attempting to kill and eat her.
  • Anti-Love Song: Gura Doesn't Know I Exist, a cover of Kristina She Don't Know I Exist by Catch 22.
  • Art Shift:
    • During her playthrough of Return Of The Obra Dinn, she edited her model to match the monochromatic art style of the game.
    • During her playthrough of Half-Life: Alyx, she uses a 3D Walfie-styled Ame acquired from a fan, making her the first member of HoloEN to stream in 3D.
    • During her playthrough of Little Nightmares II, she edits her model to make herself look more ethereal, like a ghost.
  • Badass Boast: As she gets some bad luck during a Mario Kart race with her fellow Hololive friends, she especially curses Ina with a vow to get revenge upon her, and it REALLY hits right on target, with Ina gasping in surprise for additional karmic satisfaction for Amelia.
    Amelia: Ina... prepare to get FUCKED!
  • Bespectacled Cutie: Her casual outfit sometimes includes a pair of round glasses.
  • Big-Breast Pride: While she's not crazy about fanart exaggerating things, she's pretty proud about what she does pack. She once boasted "[Gura] needs floaties. Now, me? I don't need any floaties. I got two big ones." before chuckling smugly. She's also outraged when told there was a rumor she was padding her bra, briefly removing her coat just to disprove it.
  • Bilingual Bonus: During her Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes collab with Kiara, to challenge themselves, they both decide to speak different languages during some rounds. In Ame's case, she speaks a bit of Spanish.
  • Black Comedy Rape: Amelia's impression of "[the chat's] mothers last night": "'No, Amelia, don't ground pound me, please!' Oh, and then she was, like, 'Yes, ground pound me more!' That's what she said."
  • Boob-Based Gag: On the EN Minecraft server, there exists a giant Amelia statue who stands over the minecart tracks. She is modestly proportioned, except for her massive boing-boings that extend outward by 10 blocks. Gura did that, and it now stands as one of the many monuments on the railroad leading into the main build area for all to gawk at.
  • Born Lucky: According to her, she's invested all her "stat points" in luck. Zigzagged by both suffering from various misfortunes and surviving them.
  • Bread, Eggs, Milk, Squick: During a stream of Oblivion, she has some... interesting words to say about her dinner that night.
    Amelia: I got gluten-free pasta, but they gave me a free cookie! Which is nice, but I can't eat it... but I ate it. And now it feels like tiny crabs live inside my skin— [interrupted by an NPC] hello!
  • Brits Love Tea: Although she would prefer iced tea over drinking it hot, which is very American despite her British design influences. Ultimately subverted, however, as her drink of choice is actually water.
  • But Not Too Foreign: She claims to have been born in the UK, but raised in America, hence the lack of an associated accent in her speech despite having a very British character design.
  • Canine Companion: She has 2 hunting terriers named Bubba and Miki.
  • Canines Primary, Felines Secondary: Bubba is usually the loudest of her pets and is associated with Ame's channel imagery. Miki is also loud at times, but she also has two cats in Wellington and Henry.
  • Canon Immigrant: Smol Ame started off as a meme that Ame would use from time to time, but for the 2021 April Fools collab, Walfie made proper live 2D models for the EN girls using this artstyle, enabling Amelia to become Smol Ame for real. Goes one step further after Smol Ame gained her own 3D model, whereupon she was made into a standalone character complete with lore who appears alongside normal Ame from time to time.
  • Caring Gardener: One of her hobbies is making and decorating mini terrariums, so she's quite knowledgeable about plants and the process of maintaining terrariums. In May 2022, for Ina's birthday, she even made one for her with a little stone Tako that she carved herself.
  • Casual Kink: Her response to the idea of a 3D collab with the rest of holoMyth is for the 3D stream to consist of her gen-mates beating her up, complete with less than convincing attempts to play it off as a joke. When asked about it again later, Amelia said that she could imagine Calliope "beating the shit" out of her, before adding "In the best way possible". At the first anniversary, she finally got her wish, well, kind of. She hosts a 3D VR stream to celebrate and indeed, Calli proceeds to beat her up along with Kiara.
  • Catchphrase: Ame has several recurring phrases that pop up during her streams.
    • She likes to introduce herself by saying "I'm Hololive EN's #1 detective, Amelia Waaaatson!" (''with the "Waaaa-" accompanied by a wink).
    • "It's the piiiing!", often said whenever she's not performing too well in FPS games, although sometimes it actually is because of lag.
    • "My tummy hurts!", usually said when, well, her tummy hurts, usually due to hunger.
    • "It's just like Minecraft!", said whenever anything has even the most remote resemblance to something from Minecraft.
    • "Tell me, chat! Or [x] gets it!", usually said when she asks the chat for advice or help, and jokingly threatens to cause harm to something in whatever game she's playing.
    • "Wadyameeeeean?", often as a result of the above, when she doubts something the chat tells her.
    • "Don't look, stahp!", said whenever Ame is either embarrassed about something or is trying to hide something, like whenever her model/app's UI elements briefly appear on screen, or whenever there's kissing or romance going on in any of the games she plays or movies she watches.
  • Character Tics: She's affected with chronic hiccups, which her fans find really cute.
  • The Chew Toy: A lot of jokes come at the expense of her terrible luck. Aside from her disaster-ridden past, even technology seems to turn on her.
  • Cloud Cuckoolander: She has a penchant for throwing out worrying and/or bizarre comments and anecdotes during quiet moments and Superchat readings, and her attitudes are generally chaotic. She seems especially fond of hitting Gura with weird shit in the chat when she's streaming.
  • Combat Commentator: Whenever she gets eliminated in an FPS match she will take on this role, speaking like a typical e-sports commentator.
  • Competition Freak: Amelia's various multiplayer FPS streams show off her competitive side; e.g., when playing Apex Legends she spends time complaining or mocking her teammates' less than stellar playing and even states by the end, she pretty much did all the work. This sometimes extends outside of FPS games, like getting annoyed and making excuses when losing to Ina in various virtual board games.
  • The Constant: Aside from the Smol Universe, Olivia (a still-living counterpart to Ollie from an alternate universe hololive) has noted that the Amelia in her universe is the exact same as the primary Amelia. This could hint that due to her messing with the space-time continuum, Amelia exists in all possible realities of hololive at once.
  • Cool Big Sis:
    • To Gura. Amelia is her most frequent collab partner and Gura relies on her a lot during Minecraft streams.
    • To Haachama, who Ame very much viewed as a little sister in their many collabs. After Haachama went on hiatus in 2021, Ame missed having her around.
    • To Mumei as well, as after their first collab of Valorant, she offered to play more FPS games with her, and has since played more with her like APEX and Overwatch.
  • The Corruptor: An unintentional one.
    • Kiara makes a joke that she smashed Calliope during their first Minecraft collab. Kiara quickly admits she learned it from Amelia to Calliope's nonsurprise.
    • In one of Calliope's solo streams she offhandedly mentions ground-pounding as a mechanic in the game and, knowing that many of her viewers are shared across all of HoloEN, immediately calls her own audience out on making Amelia-related "ground-pound" jokes.
  • Covert Pervert: She tries to hide her perversion at times in her streams (presumably marked "for kids"), but the sheer effort in doing so just makes it clear to those watching.
  • Crippling Overspecialization: In terms of first-person shooters, her constant playing of hero shooters has left her rather unable to adjust to a sizable number of other types. Cue her having some trouble with Halo, Titanfall 2, and Doom (2016). She eventually learns though.
  • Cursed with Awesome: According to one of her childhood stories, her grandma used to fool around a lot with other people's husbands when she was young, which resulted in somebody cursing her entire lineage with very fickle luck. The tradeoff to this is that whenever she or her relatives get lucky, they get really lucky.
  • Cute, but Cacophonic: Amelia's usual voice is pretty normal. However, she has the ability to make noises that can be described as "inhuman," such as when she explains how her Time Machine works. Severe frustration in a game can also bring it out, as she moves from grumbles to the occasional screech and finally assorted gremlin noises. There are even compilations of these gremlin moments showing how common it is.
  • Cute Monster Girl:
    • While normally the Token Human, she occasionally moonlights as a humanoid bee, although according to Ame herself, Bee Ame is just a cosplayer.
    • At the end of one Supa Sunday, Ame plays around with her model to become a flying spider ant thing, albeit a very cute flying spider ant thing.
  • D-Cup Distress:
    • A minor case, mostly in regards to fanart of herself. She mentioned that she prefers to be rendered with a more modest bust size as that is the type of figure that she herself prefers.
    • During one Supa Sunday stream, she's mentioned that she's got bad posture because of her big bust, although she stops short of actually saying it.
  • Demonic Possession: Her Halloween variant, Ghost Ame, is actually a spirit that possessed the body of normal Ame. Said spirit also identifies as Ame, so it might very well just be an alternate version of herself pulling a Grand Theft Me.
  • Determinator: Once she's set her heart on a task, failure and frustration will often just encourage her further until she eventually succeeds through simply refusing to give up; also known as the "Ame Way". It was most apparent when building the PPP in Minecraft, trying to land on the Sun Station in Outer Wilds, where hours of failure failed to deter her, or finishing Celeste, an incredibly difficult platformer. Audience members will usually show their support in the chat by posting the hashtag #Amebeliever. There's even an ode to Ame's determination!
    Amelia: [attempting to reach the Black Hole Forge in Outer Wilds] I'm gonna get it! I'm gonna do it my way! I DON'T CARE IF GRAVITY SAYS YOU CAN'T, I'M GONNA!
  • Depending on the Artist:
    • In fanart, Ame's height usually varies between Gura coming up to her breasts to Gura coming up to her chin. In reality, Ame is only 9 cm (3.5 inches) taller than Gura, which brings Gura up to her eyes. Canonically, Ame is 2 cm shorter than Ayame Nakiri, the hololive member known for her short stature, and in fact, as of the debut of hololive Indonesia Gen 2, she shares the spot as eighth shortest member of hololive with Marine and Iofi. note  Lampshaded by Gura, who has described Ame as "surprisingly short".
    • She has also acknowledged how fan art of her tends to show her as being invokedsignificantly bustier than she actually is.
  • Did I Just Say That Out Loud?: She sometimes just says things without thinking, much to the amusement of her audience. Case in point, there's been at least two times where she just casually mentions how her breasts feel.
  • Die, Chair, Die!: She spends her Superliminal playthrough gleefully setting off every fire extinguisher and alarm she comes across.
  • Dissonant Serenity: She once described a friend of hers losing a finger to a shopping cart while playing with her and other kids in a supermarket with an overly cheerful tone, and during her 2020 Thanksgiving stream she followed up a story about how her brother set her family's house on fire and she almost died because she was hiding in the closet with a cheerful "Let me go check on the yams again!".
  • Distracted by the Sexy: Invoked Trope. She puts up Ina's art of her in a swimsuit to distract stream snipers who look at her minimap.
  • The Dividual: With Smol Ame. Despite common belief, the regular Ame is not the same one as Smol Ame, the latter being an Alternate Universe counterpart who pops up every now and then to "hijack" the channel for her own shenanigans. This became acknowledged and made canon when both versions of Ame appeared on-screen at the same time in "Smol Ame visits the Office". According to the same episode, Smol Ame was also not the first or only alternate Amelia to have appeared on the channel either. Other Amelias have taken over streaming duties in the past but they are virtually identical in personality and appearance.
  • Does Not Like Spam: Quite a few.
    • Spicy food. She was devastated when her favorite noodle joint changed the recipe and made their noodles too spicy for her.
    • She's allergic to regular bread, so she's forced into a gluten-free diet.
    • She also dislikes soda and other carbonated drinks due to how they hurt her throat.
    • Onions are also on this list, especially raw ones, thus giving rise to jokes about her hating Aqua.
  • Don't Call Me "Sir": She assures Anya that she need not be concerned with formalities of addressing her as "Senpai" and says it's fine to just call her "Ame", despite Anya's reluctance due to how disrespectful this is.
  • Don't Like? Don't Read!:
    • During one of her Super Mario Sunshine streams, she mentioned that people who don't have fun watching her are free to click the little X in the top right corner of the screen.
    • Part of her response to someone using a grand total of 50 euros to send her a multi-part superchat criticizing Hololive for making an appearance at Anime Expo.
  • Drives Like Crazy:
  • Ear Worm: Ever since one of her A Hat in Time streams with Ina, she's had Chug Jug With You stuck in her head and breaks out into song at almost any moment after she says the words "we gotta".
  • El Spanish "-o": Amelia's attempt at speaking Spanish when playing Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes with Kiara.
  • Everyone Has Standards:
    • During a Minecraft collab, Kiara said that her mother was watching the stream and asked if Amelia wanted to say anything to her, unintentionally giving the perfect set-up for one of her usual Your Mom jokes note . However, precisely because this was a friend's mother Amelia decided against it, simply complimenting Kiara and saying that "Mrs. Takanashi" should be very proud of her daughter.
    • When working in collabs, she generally will tone down her "toxic gamer" attitude; while it's not as pronounced in working with other EN girls (she will be a bit whiny but not outwardly vitriolic towards them) it is definitely showcased when working with anyone from the Japanese branch. She has stated she views that attitude to be a bit pathetic which is why she refrains from doing it with them, but acts unrestrained in solo streams because her audience is "just as pathetic" as she is.
    • She was also clearly very uncomfortable with the casual 1940s racism, sexism, antisemitism, and homophobia in L.A. Noire, to the point that she sounded uncharacteristically sad and worried and had to be convinced by the chat to continue playing.
    • When collabing with Ollie, the usually flirtatious Amelia is left taken aback by the even more flirtier Ollie's constant advances.
    • While playing through Super Mario Sunshine, there was one scene where Shadow Mario stuck out his long tongue at Mario. Ame found it kinda freaky, and wondered if he was gonna do something kinky to Peach with it. When it was revealed that Shadow Mario was actually Bowser Jr., who sees Peach as his mama, Ame took back her statement.

    F-P 
  • Fantastic Drug: "Watson's Concoction" is an incredibly powerful hallucinogen that she tested out on her audience via injection during her first stream. She refuses to reveal its contents, but fan theories suggest it is related to Hololive Japan's equivalent, Asacoco. During her collab with Coco in the lead up to the latter's graduation, Coco handed the secret Asacoco recipe over to her. She also makes a suspicious statement about snorting powdered bacon.
  • Fishbowl Helmet: Her astronaut outfit sports one, with a bow on top. Bubba has one too, though without a matching suit.
  • Flat World: She seems to believe in this, as when Gura said how Atlantis is buried deep under the sea where the pressure is tremendous, Ame hopes that one day the flat Earth will tip over and drain all the water out so she can visit it.
  • Foil:
    • To Marine Houshou. Both are The Team Normal among a generation of supernatural, non-human humanoids, or fantasy themed humans, both display Ambiguously Bi behavior, both have Big-Breast Pride, both are primarily paired with a smaller, more flat-chested girl with occasional A-Cup Angst (Gura and Rushia respectively, more prominent in the latter case), and both are well known for lewd behavior.
      • The contrast is both have opposite language barriers, where Marine has trouble speaking and understanding English and actually had no idea what kind of girl Amelia was, while Amelia is the least versed in Japanese out of the EN girls.
      • Also, while Marine is usually agreed to be an actual shameless and self-proclaimed pervert, with Amelia it appears as though she merely has a penchant for making lewd jokes (as part of her "toxic gamer" persona) and has yet to engage in much proper perverted behavior, being outdone by Kiara, the actual pervert of HoloEN.
      • Both are themed with exotic professions, with Marine being a Pirate Girl and Amelia being a detective. However Marine for the most only seems to dress like a pirate, but in reality, doesn't have a ship and is just a cosplayer. Amelia on the other hand seems like a normal detective, but is later revealed to be a time traveler.
    • To Coco Kiryu. Both are known to be incredibly supportive and the most creative member of their generation when it comes to stream ideas. They are primarily shipped with a shorter, white-and-blue-haired, flat-chested girl (Kanata and Gura respectively). Both of them are also good at singing, but are outclassed by the rest of their generation's vocal talent.
      • While Coco is the oldest member of her generation at 3500 years old, Amelia, being The Team Normal, is far younger than her genmates.
      • While Coco is the only one in her generation with a non-humanoid form, Amelia is the Token Human of her generation, as the others are themed after the divine or a creature of some sort.
      • Both are known to be eccentric at times and degenerate. However, while Coco is no-filter regardless of who she collabs with (especially when she invites them to Reddit Meme Review), Amelia tends to suppress these aspects of her character around her senpais and kouhais, and even around her genmates to a lesser-extent, with Gura being the one she's the most unfiltered with.
      • Both of them are also known for their signature products Asacoco and Watson Concoction. However, while Asacoco comes in many spinoff products made for commercial distribution and recreational use, Watson Concoction is only administered via injection and is exclusively for professional use.
  • Foreshadowing: Amelia is the only normal human of her generation but was the only one to not have her age listed in her debut stream. That's because she can Time Travel and she doesn't age normally. She also mentions in her debut that the drug she injects the audience with is what she used to offer "Mr. Holmes", revealing that she was around during the time period of the Sherlock Holmes books.
  • Gadgeteer Genius:
    • Calli's story video indicates that Amelia was working on her time machine as a child.
    • In real life, she's quite savvy with streaming technology and helped set up Myth's "Smolverse" VR Chat streams, turning her house into an impromptu VR studio.
  • Gamer Chick: Shortly after her debut, Amelia rattled off streams of Valorant and Apex Legends on very little sleep, showcasing her skill at FPS games.
  • Get-Rich-Quick Scheme: She has a penchant for these since she wants money to keep her agency open.
  • Girls with Moustaches: Her Live2D model features an optional mustache. The mustache even appears on her magnifying glass!
  • Gonk: If a game allows the player to customize their character's appearance, one can bet that Ame's Bowson will have the most physically scuffed visage she can make, typically with a squashed face, wide-set googly eyes, and huge, overly squarish head.
  • Gratuitous Spanish: Amelia occassionally sings Spanish songs or the Spanish lyrics to English songs in her karaoke streams. She also has rare "Spanish-only" challenges showing that she knows barely enough to stream in Spanish (with a little bit of Gratuitous Japanese and El Spanish "-o" mixed in) for two hours.
  • Ground Pound: Her Signature Move, of the Ass Kicks You variant, and she usually happens to play games that have it as a mechanic in some manner, like the Mario games. In her playthrough of Elden Ring, she even calls it her finishing move, and always tries to defeat enemies and bosses using it, even managing to beat the final boss of Elden Ring with the ground pound after hours of attempts.
  • The Gunslinger: Her casual outfit comes with a hand gun holstered in an armpit strap hidden under her (removable) jacket. She has clarified that it's only a paint ball gun, though.
  • Hair of Gold, Heart of Gold: She's blonde, and while she may be seen as a salty gamer gremlin, she just plays that up for comedy, and she truly is a sweet girl at heart.
  • Have We Met Yet?: Amelia explains that she once met a past version of Gura before she joined hololive via time travel.
  • Head Pet: Her casual outfit has a little Bubba resting on top of her hat sometimes. Her New Year's outfit also has one, in the form of a goldfish in a bag placed on her head.
  • Hell Is That Noise: Played for laughs. Amelia is capable of emitting a Brown Note-level screeching from right out of the blue that both confuses and amuses her fanbase. It's one of several aspects about herself that inspired the "Gremlin Ame" meme.
  • Hereditary Curse: According to her, Grandma Watson liked messing around with other women's husbands so much that one of the wives placed a curse on the entire Watson family, explaining the bizarre stories and misfortune Amelia experienced growing up.
  • Hidden Buxom: Her coat makes her chest look a considerable deal smaller than it actually is, and her princess outfit shows off her bust quite nicely. That said, she also isn't fond of fan artists exaggerating their size.
    Ina: I thought she was one of us - like Gura and me. But Ame, she... she hid her boing-boings!
  • Hidden Depths:
    • Amelia is implied to be a lot more calm and responsible than her usual chaotic behavior would suggest. According to Ina, her first impression on Watson is that "she's someone that she can trust" and later talked about the "calm energy" she radiates.
    • She has extensive knowledge on how to care for fish, maintain both her terrarium and aquarium, and also hosted a few nature streams, like an insect and bug stream, wherein she goes into detail and explains what these creatures and critters are all about.
    • Ame is also very skilled at creating terrariums and scale models by hand, and frequently shares pictures of them on her Twitter.
  • Hilariously Abusive Childhood: Except her parents and other guardians were fine, and it was instead other kids, her own unwise decisions and her terrible luck doing all the abusing, and she got into a variety of accidents and frightening events as a result that she makes light of nowadays. Whenever Amelia utters the words "when I was a kid" to begin a story, it's time to brace for impact.
  • Helium Speech: She did a short segment on her 2022 Valentine's Day stream, where she had a helium-filled balloon prepared to read out chat requests in this voice.
  • Honest John's Dealership: Ame owns a (used) car dealership in the Hololive Rust server where she would find banged-up vehicles around the map, fix them up a bit, and put them on sale for her colleagues to buy. Subverted in that while the cars themselves were rebuilt from wreckages, it's actually just part of the game, and Ame isn't up to no good like the typical examples.
  • I Do Not Like Green Eggs and Ham: Amelia initially said that she didn't expect to spend much time on holoEN's Minecraft server because wide-open, free-form games aren't really her thing, but after playing with an audience and setting concrete goals for each stream she found herself having a lot of fun and ended up being quite active, including studying up on Redstone and building the server's railway system practically single-handedly.
  • I Need to Go Iron My Dog: Whenever she needs to step away from the stream for any reason such as getting water, snacks, going to the bathroom, etc., she'll usually say she needs to attend an "idol meeting".
  • Interdimensional Travel Device: Her pocket watch also does this in addition to its time-travelling function.
  • Intimate Marks: Her third outfit has large sections of translucent material, revealing a mole on the inside of her left breast as well as a tattoo on her left shoulder.
  • Jack of All Trades: It could be argued that rather than being an accomplished gamer, singer, or artist, as most other Cover talents, Amelia's true skill instead lies in streaming in and of itself, as she has some of the most varied and creative solo content compared to not only her gen-mates, but other talents as well. Along with the usual Q/A, superchat reading, watch-alongs, and karaoke streams, she also has ASMR, cooking, roleplay, drawing, language practice, accent learning, listen-alongs, read-alongs, ukelele streams, nature reviews, news-reporting and even giving her fans homework for the week to review on stream.
  • Know-Nothing Know-It-All: Played for laughs. Amelia will often perform a Sherlock Scan or offer an insightful Sherlockian comment on scientific matters while playing a game, but the information she offers is very rarely accurate or remotely relevant.
  • Language Barrier: Amelia is one of the two hololive members in Myth who isn't fluent enough in Japanese to hold a conversation (the other being Gura), so she naturally runs into this trope. Amazingly, she ends up downplaying and defying it. In February 2021, she had the second most senpai collabs with the JP branch note  in her generation following Kiara, despite being the worst at Japanese.
  • Last-Name Basis: Zig-zagged; while the other girls fairly consistently called by their first names, Amelia is variously called by either name depending on the situation, with Gura, Ina, and Kiara usually primarily referring to her as either "Amelia" or "Ame", and Calli usually primarily referring to her as "Watson". Gura has explained that she uses "Ame" when Amelia is being cute, and "Watson" when she's being a Watson.
  • The Leader: Discussed by the other girls during the one year anniversary stream as the other girls say they look up to her as a sort of leader for big collab streams. Ame herself dismisses the notion, saying that they are all leaders in their own way, depending on the context. That said, her contributions to HoloEN via her efforts as back end support for numerous collaborations in particular with VR Chat use (and just back end support in general), have at least largely cemented this among fans; this was boosted for a while especially after Yagoo himself complimented her on her impressive work when he was a guest on Holotalk.
  • Like Mother, Like Daughter: With her illustrator, Aoi Nabi. Like Ame, Nabi is also a sweet-hearted girl. However, also like Ame, Nabi also has her moments of being "yabai", like having a stream where she teaches Korean swear words. Both Ame and Nabi have also indulged in acting like a Yandere during a new outfit reveal stream and a short video respectively.
  • Loophole Abuse: Ame figured that the collab ban that applies to all new Hololive talents only meant not appearing live on stream together, and thus didn't cover showing pre-recorded skits. So she made one including Sana, and got away with showing it off during her Sunday morning show.
  • Lovely Angels: She and Gura are very close friends (or sometimes even more), with the two of them very efficient in kicking ass together in co-op.
  • Mad Doctor: Has shades of this, with her creating concoctions or bizarre machines that have strangae effects on people, as well as having no qualms with experimenting on chat.
  • Made of Iron: After her various stories of serious injuries as a child-like splitting her head open, being left in a hot car, chopping off part of her finger, and biting off her tongue, many of her viewers were surprised she survived to adulthood.
  • Me's a Crowd: For her birthday live in 2023, Ame performed several songs while singing and dancing with (and as) different versions of herself, including smol Ame, Armando, Buffson, and her Dreamin' Chu Chu low poly model, sometimes all at once.
  • Mobile Fishbowl: Her kimono outfit features a little fish inside a plastic bag full of water that lays on top of her head. According to Ame, the fish is a cyborg/robot fish, so there's no need to worry for its safety, especially since it also has laser eyes to protect itself.
  • Morality Pet: Her senpais and kouhais really bring out the best in her whilst suppressing her Competition Freak and Sore Loser tendencies, with Amelia even taking the blame for some losses in APEX with Roboco. Fans liken it to the difference between Haachama and Akai Haato. According to Amelia herself, she doesn't really like to rage in front of other people since she feels like it makes her look pathetic.
  • Motifs:
    • Moustaches and clocks.
    • Lemons are also a minor motif, referencing the box of fake lemons Gura gifted to symbolize her love for Amelia. The can be seen on Amelia's laptop (as a mock Apple logo) and on the cafe logo during her casual outfit reveal stream. Ame even has a sticker of herself sticking her tongue out to lick the lemon logo on her laptop, and has a second laptop featuring a sticker of Gura with her mouth open, ready to bite into the same logo.
  • Motor Mouth: She is well known for her proclivity to go on rapid, rambling monologues at the drop of a hat.
  • Mushroom Samba: Her Watson Concoction syringes cause a lot of tripping out and visual effects such as seeing triple and Fish-Eye Lens among other things.
  • My Eyes Are Up Here: During Ame's birthday celebration on January 6th, 2022, viewers were introduced to "Buff Ame" in VR chat. Gura was so taken aback by her pectorals that she couldn't stop staring. She thought Ame's eyes were on her chest.
    Buff Ame: Hey, my eyes are up here!
    Gura: No, they're not.
  • Never My Fault: In combination with being a sore loser, she has a laundry list of excuses for why she ends up losing or not doing well in any particular game she ends up playing.
  • Noblewoman's Laugh:
  • No Sense of Direction: Mentioned it once during an Oblivion stream, all the while trying to find the farmer's house.
    Amelia: Recently, I did my... You guys, like, you know you can test your DNA? And obviously, I'm 100% Scottish, and apparently, I have, like, a thingy in my DNA that says I have a bad sense of direction.
  • Once Done, Never Forgotten: In Minecraft, Amelia constructed a giant magnifying glass outside her house, which immediately got mistaken for a tennis racket by Calli note . The rest of the girls would endlessly tease Ame over this, which eventually led to a series of pranks from Gura adding a tennis ball next to the magnifying glass and Ina assisting in coloring the tennis ball green.
  • O.O.C. Is Serious Business: Moments of salty rage aside, Amelia is usually a bundle of cheerfulness and positivity, which makes any moment where she's acting down that much more notable, such as her Oh, Crap! moment when she found out about L.A. Noire's Deliberate Values Dissonance, which left her sounding sad and worried.
  • Paper-Thin Disguise: Her attempt at dodging an arrest warrant from Oozora Police is to put on a mustache and only that. Amazingly enough, this seems to have worked.
  • Passing the Torch: In Ame's first and only collab with Kiryu Coco in Reddit Meme Review, the latter passes on the secret recipe for her signature product, Asacoco, prior to her graduation.
  • Paste Eater: She used to like eating sand as a child due to its texture.
  • Percussive Therapy: Like many others in hololive, Amelia slams her desk when she's especially frustrated. Her desk smashes are very loud in comparison to the likes of Towa and Rushia; fans have likened it to hearing gunshots. A Super Mario Sunshine stream led to a couple of particularly violent ones during tough platforming sections, one of which disconnected the stream entirely and the second one being accompanied by a noise that sounded like half the keys from her keyboard ending up on the floor. On the next day's Q and A stream, she admitted that the "D" key was still missing.
  • Perpetual Smiler: Similar to Korone, her mouth opens up by default, with both rows of teeth visible most of the time. While she does have an angry facial expression, it is still very tame compared to the rest of HoloEN and takes considerable effort to put on, and so goes unused most of the time even if she's upset.
  • The Pollyanna: In her own words "she turned out good", despite the level of seriousness with several incidents as a young child. At two years old she fell in an ice cream store and bit her tongue so badly it was nearly cut in half. As a 3 or 4-year-old Amelia's brother pushed her off the bed while they were jumping on it and she now has a large scar on her head. She cut the tip of her thumb off trying to peel an apple. The final one was being left in a hot car with her brother that got so hot it melted her crayons. And she had the same cheer when telling a similar story later on of how she tried to do spinny tricks off some ropes at Disneyland and faceplanted into the concrete hard enough to get a scar later.
  • Polyamory: When asked by a female fan if she was open to having a girlfriend, she replied that she already has four of them and isn't open to any more.
  • Portmanteau: Her proposed fanbase name of "Amelianaires" (Amelia + "millionaires"). While the chat devised and latched onto the name "Holmies" (Holmes + "homies") instead, it was unusable due to that name being associated with supporting a Spree Killer. Eventually both she and her chat settled in on Teamates ("Teammates" by way of "tea + "mates.")
  • Pungeon Master: Downplayed, but she can get quite punny when making fun of something, such as declaring herself a "zoomer" by literally zooming around the screen, or when asked about "No Nut November" ends up making it about literal nuts like almonds.
  • Private Detective: Streams from her office with a noir style opening and jazz BGM.

    Q-Z 
  • Quintessential British Gentleman: Her design matches a few things on the list such as the High-Class Glass, the mustache motif on her belongings, and her following intellectual pursuits like puzzle games and investigating the weirdness in hololive. Taken further in her debut proper with her putting on an exaggerated British accent while talking about her love for tea, blood sausage, and crumpets.
  • Quirky Ukulele: Knows how to play the instrument.
  • The Reliable One: She is HoloMyth's go-to for technical issuess. After Myth's 3D debuts, it became clear that Ame's house also doubles as a recording studio, allowing the girls to set up their mocap without having to go through the hassle of flying all the way to Japan.
  • Ridiculously Human Robots: As a gag leading up to the revelation of her formal dress outfit, Ame showed off a piece of artwork where her new "costume" design is in actuality a robot in her likeness that's piloted by three Smol Ames stacked on top of each other, and claimed that it's was actually her true nature as well. She later reassures everyone she's joking.
    Ame: Yeah, this is actually how I looked all the time underneath this skin, but you guys just don't know. So maybe my new outfit will be revealing my actual-my real-the real way that I looked. Hmm, yeah, this is how I looked all this time underneath the flesh.
  • Ripple-Effect-Proof Memory: Her memory is not affected by the timeline shenanigans that she's allegedly responsible for.
  • Rollercoaster Mine: One of her biggest Minecraft projects is a minecart system that spans the length of the long tunnel they dug in their first collab. With the assistance of several intermittent powered rails they can quickly speed between the mine entrance and any important branching points.
  • Saloon Owner: She is the owner of the Crispy Gator Saloon, frequented by alligators, and sells "gator milk", which was then rebranded to "gator-ade" (no relation to the sports drink).
  • Self-Fanservice: Referenced In-Universe during a Q&A stream where she was asked about the trend of fan-artists giving her larger "boing boings". After several seconds of stammered false starts (since this was supposed to be a family-friendly stream), Ame said that she appreciates all fanart but prefers that the fans portray her with a more accurate physique.
  • She Cleans Up Nicely: Downplayed Trope, as she has always been cute as a button, but her second new outfit takes things up to eleven. The combination of her beautiful black dress accentuating her chest and her new long hair left many people completely floored, with Ame herself stating she felt like a princess.
  • Sherlock Homage:
    • This is basically her shtick. She has the deerstalker hat, carries a magnifying glass at all times, and a similar association with drugs. She also shares the same name as Dr. Watson and carries medical equipment with her (a stethoscope and some syringes). Her birthday is also Sherlock Holmes' (unofficial) birthday.
    • During her debut, she revealed she actually knew/knows a "Mr. Holmes", stating that he called her drug cocktail "Watson's Concoction" and it is what she used to give him. Considering the fact that she is a time traveler, she might actually be the Dr. Watson.
    • In her stream of There Is No Game: Wrong Dimension, it was revealed that she's the granddaughter of Dr. John H. Watson, as she immediately recognizes him and states that he's her grandfather when he appears in the Sherlock Holmes point and click section of the game.
  • Ship Tease: With Gura.
    • After months of fans shipping the two of them together, Amelia finally set the shippers ablaze by calling Gura "[her] wife" on Twitter. Then for Amelia's birthday, among her presents Gura had gifted her a box of synthetic lemons to which Gura replies by saying "those lemons will last forever, like my love for you".
    • They have dedicated the same song to one another in previous karaoke streams.
    • They have also have done a couple of duets with each other's karaoke recordings.
    • Gura in particular has the Catchphrase "This reminds me of Amelia!" which has been lampshaded by their own manager, Jenma. She also consistently sings praises of Amelia not just in collabs but in her solo streams; moreso than any other member of HoloEN.
    • During Coco's graduation, Gura was absent from the rest of the EN girls segment note . Ame commented about this on twitter with: "Same sleep in. With me"
    • However, in 2022, she seems to be getting a lot more ship tease with Kiara.
  • Signature Headgear: Appropriately, she wears a nice deerstalker hat just like the source of inspiration for her character design.
  • Signature Laugh: Her regular laughter is not especially notable, but the gremlin cackle she deploys whenever she's told an acknowledgedly immature/toxic joke is.
    Amelia: NEHEHEHEHE!
  • Significant Birth Date: January 6 is the traditionally accepted birthday of Sherlock Holmes ("traditionally accepted" because the original novels never said anything about the topic).
  • Sleep Deprivation:
    • By the time of her debut stream, she had already stayed up for 20 hours and then was sighted in the chat of several streams afterwards. She later tweeted that she had too much caffeine and doesn't remember her stream. During her Valorant stream the next day, she cheerfully mentions getting 2 1/2 hours of sleep. She finally admits to getting eleven hours of sleep here.
    • Her awkward sleeping habits lead to her commenting how she's tired during her streams and how she takes short naps between streams that are less than several hours apart.
  • Sleeps in the Nude: One of her dislikes is wearing clothes when going to sleep.
  • The Smart Guy: Being a time-travelling detective aside, professionally she is actually one of the biggest innovators and trendsetters in Hololive, to the point that Yagoo himself commented on how impressed he was with her ideas, her work and her accomplishments:
    • She started the "Feet on Screen" trend.
    • She also started the "Cozy Blanket" trend, and is, by extension, single handedly responsible for every other accessory-on-screen trend henceforth in the VTubing community.
    • She made the HoloEN "Off-Collab" happen, and set the foundation for similar events throughout Hololive.
    • She pioneered collaborating with independent Hololive fans, such as cartoonist Walfie, to create content that would help Hololive stay fresh and relevant.
    • Based on those collaborations she pioneered the creation of cute "Smol" and "Low-Polygon" 3D models for her and the rest of Hololive Myth that they would use in VRChat collabs.
    • She popularized VR content among the English-speaking VTuber community.
    • She also turned her house into a makeshift 3D mocap studio, allowing the EN girls to do 3D recordings without having to fly all the way to Japan.
  • Sore Loser: Tends to Rage Quit, make excuses, or flame her teams when she loses. She has mentioned that watching fan clips of herself raging made her feel bad about being so toxic and was not proud of those moments.
  • Soundtrack Dissonance: Every stream starts with her greeting chat to a jazzy piano BGM which she loops during her FPS streams. No matter if she's complaining about her team, fragging enemies, winning or losing games, expect the same relaxing piano piece playing in the back, with her sometimes humming along with it. However, she is ready to turn off the BGM when she is in a tense situation such as being in the final few remaining teams in APEX.
  • Speech Impediment: A very mild lisp when talking. While she hasn't remarked directly on it, fans believe a childhood incident she explained in which she nearly bit her tongue off is to blame.
  • Spiritual Successor: invokedHer Ame in the A.M. show is one for Coco's AsaCoco Live News. In fact, Ame herself is widely considered to be the heir to Coco's legacy, being the creative powerhouse that greatly expanded the scope of Myth and indirectly spurring the development of later generations like Council, as well as having an immensely powerful reach and influence that brought every mainline branch and generations together in collaborations. About the only thing that didn't get passed down from Coco to her is the weekly Shitpost review, which is handled by Haachama instead.
  • Stable Time Loop: Due to her nature as a time traveler, this crops up sometimes.
    • Once claimed to have time traveled to the past and told the Gura of that time period that the latter would be in hololive one day.
      Amelia: I told her all about it. And she's been waiting. She's been waiting! For so long! But for me, it was just the other day. [reading chat] "Why'd you spoil her?" Maybe it was like a Catch-22 sort of thing. How do you use that phrase? What came first, the chicken or the egg? What if I never told Gura? What if I never time traveled and never told her? Maybe she wouldn't be in EN! Which came first?! The loop! Time is confusing...
    • In a meme review with Coco a fan-comic, which Amelia and Coco confirm depicts actual events, reveals Amelia was the one responsible for Coco's Hololive career, having been instructed by Yagoo to travel back to 2019 and snipe Coco out of the sky as she flew over Hololive headquarters. This was later reinforced when Coco explained on Kiara's Holotalk episode that she was flying around and suddenly became exhausted and crashed into Cover Corp, though she suspects she was shot down with a rocket-propelled grenade. This is an excellent example of a "causal loop / bootstrap paradox" (where the future event is the cause of a past event) since Coco was instrumental in the creation of the HoloEN branch, and responsible for Amelia getting hired by Hololive in the first place.
  • The Stinger: A running gag is for her to say goodbye to everyone but leave the stream on for a few more minutes and say something silly at the very last moment before cutting off the broadcast for good. While most of them are just her talking over the end screen right as it cuts out, there's been a few times where she actually prepares a special end screen that usually references whatever she just streamed. One has her reciting the giant holographic Joi at the end of the Blade Runner 2049 watchalong, complete with the actual scene itself with her taking the place of Joi.
  • The Straight Man: Subverted. When Hololive EN was first announced, many people expected Amelia to be either this or the Only Sane Woman for the generation due to being the most normal looking out of the five. Obviously, this expectation got quickly proven wrong as soon as she debuted. That role goes to Calli instead.
  • Super-Speed: She declares herself a "zoomer" and proceeds to demonstrate by zooming at high speeds around her stream room.
  • Take That!:
    • The intro to "Keynote Presentation" is a riff on "metaverse" projects in the tech industry and NFTs note , with Amelia launching her own brand of "NFATs" - "non-fungullible Ame tokens." The short also doubles as Biting-the-Hand Humor since Cover is working on hololive Alternative, which is itself a "metaverse" project.
    • In a Minecraft stream prior to the Keynote, a fan asked if they can have Ame NFTs. Amelia reads the message and mocks the idea, muttering under her breath "stupid".
    • She dedicated an entire role playing stream to poke fun at the overused Morbius jokes, with an on screen representation of the chat being injected with syringes to try and "cure" the chat of its Morbin' problem.
    • In the wake of the controversy surrounding AI-generated art and her genmates' decisions to forbid such art in their fanart tagsnote , Ame went to set up another stream where she poses as a non-profit AI detective uses this feature to help solve crimes, and act it out in a way that effectively communicates that she is okay with the technology as long as it's used well rather than being blindly sided against it.
  • Team Mom: During group Minecraft streams, Amelia can be counted on to look after her team and supply the others with what they need. She also frequently uses her management and tech skills to bust the others out of a bind and during large collabs tends to take a moderating role. Fauna confirmed that during real-life collaborations, Ame also tends to go into "full-on senpai mode".
  • The Team Normal: Downplayed — Initially, she's the sole regular human in a group of otherwise mythical beings, but eventually she came up with the concept of her pocket watch being a time travel device, and it has since been integrated into her character, making her as supernatural as her gen-mates.
  • Thinks Like a Romance Novel: Ame has a habit of getting a little excited when there's even the slightest bit of romance in whatever she's playing or watching.
    • During her playthrough of Pokémon Legends: Arceus, after watching the characters Adaman and Irida bicker over space and time, romance immediately jumped to Ame's head as she believed they would kiss or fall in love just like Romeo and Juliet.
    • When she played Neon White, upon finding out about the visual novel elements, where you can find hidden gifts in each level to give to characters, Ame went back to each mission's levels just to find the gifts, and got pretty excited to see the interactions between the protagonist and the other Neons, all for the hope of seeing some romance.
  • Time Travel:
    • Amelia's time-traveling ability was never part of her original profile. During her first Fall Guys stream, Amelia claims the watch she wears is a time-traveling device, to explain away why she knows what Mighty Beanz are. invokedIt since has become part of her character.
    • Shortly after Ollie's Olivia stream, where she portrayed an alternate timeline version of herself who was still alive, and revealed that the only member of hololive in her timeline to have the exact same name as in Our Timeline was Amelia, Amelia made a series of tweets implying that she can also travel between timelines, and that she may have been the one responsible for Olivia ending up in our timeline.
    • Shortly after the debut of the Council, Amelia cheekily Tweets that Kronii's Twitter restriction is what keeps her safe, hinting that her time-travel pocket watch was stolen from the Time Warden.
  • Token Human: She is effectively this among her generation, who are mythical creatures adopting A Form You Are Comfortable With. Even if we're assuming Ina is still mostly human after her ascendance as the Ancient Ones' priestess, Ame is the only one who has the look down hat without any extra supernatural bits to her.
  • Too Much Information: Amelia's reaction to Ollie describing herself going to the bathroom as "pee[ing] like a Charge Rifle", complete with Saying Sound Effects Out Loud to describe what it sounded like.
    Amelia: ...thank you, I'm imagining it now.
  • Totally Radical: Sometimes when Ame puts on a dude voice when reading dialogue in games, or when she's being Armando, she puts on what can be best described as a stereotypical surfer dude voice mixed with Sonic the Hedgehog.
  • Trademark Favorite Food: Donuts. She ordered some to eat on a Supa Sunday stream, played and enjoyed a donut themed game in Donut County just prior to that, and got excited when donuts were mentioned in the Knives Out watchalong in an analogy. The Stinger for that watchalong had her recite the same analogy while a donut-shaped overlay was placed over her. During a stream of Gundam Evolution, she got excited when she was playing as Asshimar, as it can transform into a more mobile form that, according to Ame, resembled a donut.
  • Tranquil Fury:
    • Her getting frustrated or angry at a game tends to end in screeching, Desk-kun abuse and swearing. Her getting legitimately angry at someone seems to be a different story entirely, as seen with one question in a Q&A stream that took an entitled tone:
      Amelia: First of all, you watch your goddamn tone when you're talking to me.
    • She spends one Super Mario Sunshine stream trying to reach a secret level with Yoshi, failing several times, slamming her desk, even disconnecting her router, and it turns out to be a Brutal Bonus Level. After losing all her lives and spending a good half of the stream frustrated and angry, she just quietly exits out of the game and ends the stream right then and there.
  • Troll:
    • Any time she plays any of the Pokemon games, she will call the Pokemon by the wrong names just to mess around with her audience, much to their amusement, even if the name is literally stated on screen. She's called Eevee the evolution of Bidoof, Emolga a mini Lugia, and without fail, she's referred to Shinx (a little lion Pokemon) as a monkey.
    • In the first full Myth + Hope + Council collab of Among Us, Ame spent the whole stream just being a crewmate, yet took a lot of opportunities to mess with her genmates and kouhais by claiming to be the impostor and that she's actually on cooldown, while also running away screaming from the others thinking they're the impostor, whether they actually were or not.
    • On Christmas Eve 2021, Ame hosted a stream that was simply called TF2 at first. Most people correctly assumed it was Team Fortress 2, but the initials could also stand for Titanfall 2. Ame rolled with this and changed her stream reservation's thumbnail and title back and forth between the two, and then some. As the hour went on she'd change it to things like Fall Guys (with the player character dressed as Scout), Minecraft, and then various distorted edited images of the TF2 characters. It eventually was Team Fortress 2, but Ame had a bit of fun messing around before the stream started.
    • She had an important announcement to make late in September 2022, and despite most fans understandably freaking out, it was just to announce her collaboration with Among Us, and also to show off some Among Us themed cookies she baked.
    • At the end of a karaoke she did late January 2024, she was about to sing "Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You", only for the stream to seemingly be made unavailable, suspended for copyright. It held on such a "suspension notice" for a good few minutes, much to the confusion and slight worry of many investigators... only for the stream to still be live, and Ame revealed that she was just messing around and then ended the stream properly, claiming that everyone missed hearing the rest of the song.
  • The Trickster: She has a mischievous and playful nature, as well as a tendency to pull pranks and make lewd remarks.
  • Unit Confusion: In her debut, claimed to be 150 cm, or 5-foot-9-inches (what she called freedom units). 5-foot-9-inches converts to about 175cm, while 150cm is 4-foot-11-inches.
  • Unwanted Assistance: While she is appreciative of her audience's advice when streaming games she knows little about such as Minecraft, she has commented that she finds it annoying when they tell her basic things about playing or controls, noting that such comments are made as the result of building up good habits over time that a new player understandably would not have but develop over time and that telling them they are doing something wrong is more of a deterrent that would make her more prone to ignoring audience input altogether.
  • Valley Girl: Fans have debated over whether or not she has such an accent, but if she wants to, she does a pretty convincing one, in any case.
  • Verbal Tic: She frequently experiences what she calls "reverse-burps" involuntarily, resulting in her releasing random chirps and hiccups during streams. These "hics" are well received by the fans when they occur.
  • Video Game Perversity Potential: When playing Half-Life: Alyx, one of the very first things she does in her new virtual reality environment is Flipping the Bird to the sky.
  • Vocal Evolution: Mainly with regards to her singing voice. Very early on, Ame admitted that singing wasn't one of her strong suits (she was even upfront about this during her audition for hololive — she took it as a good sign when Cover assured her it was okay before advising her to take singing lessons immediately), and early examples of her singing were amateur-quality, but obviously playing it up for laughs. She did end up sticking to her training, and her singing ability has indeed improved noticeably over the years, with her being confident enough to do more karaoke streams and contribute more music as herself, releasing her first true original song, "ChikuTaku", in January 2023.
  • Weather Report: Her weather segment on her Ame in the AM morning show has her talk about games that are trending at the time of the episode, likening them to winds or storms passing through.
  • What Did I Do Last Night?: Has absolutely no recollection of her debut stream due to being completely wired on caffeine as well as sleep-deprived for roughly 24 hours. She even had to clarify that she was being serious on her Twitter account due to people explaining the nature of what actually happened during that debut.
  • Yandere: During her casual outfit reveal stream, she briefly started acting like one after acting like the chat broke up with her and asked if the chat was seeing another girl, complete with Yandere Stare.
  • Yaoi Fangirl: Has admitted to reading Team Fortress 2 slash fiction (Sniper/Spy) in her younger days, and when asked if she prefers yuri or yaoi, she said she liked both.
  • Your Mom: Not above cracking such jokes directed at viewers' moms when she gets the chance. Usually followed by a particular laugh that can only be described as "gremlin-like".
  • Zombie Apocalypse: During the HoloEN Halloween collab, Amelia explains that part of the VR lobby is currently blocked off due to an outbreak of zombie Ames.

Alternate Amelia Watsons

Due to Ame's nature as a time travelling detective, she was able to discover a whole multiverse of Ames from different timelines.

The most prominent one is Smol Ame, whose model was created by Walfie. However Ame would later debut numerous other alternate Ames who would get featured in her streams.


    In general 
  • Alternate Self: All of them are versions of Amelia Watson from across the Multiverse. There is enough of them to form an Egopolis called Wattropolis, a city full of alternate Ames.
  • Egopolis: According to Ame in a stream she had after a short trip, there exists a city full of Ames called Wattropolis, each with different jobs and characteristics, and they all get together biannually. There's even an Ame running for mayor, going up against another Ame.
  • Inexplicably Identical Individuals: Just as there are multiple parallel Ames, there are separate Smol Ames, which can be told apart based on the model they're using (e.g. Seafoamboi's Smol Ame is not the same one as Hask's Smol Ame, and the latter is also an out-of-costume Ame Bee), despite seemingly being the same character.
  • Me's a Crowd: Multiple Ames have appeared onstream at once, smol or otherwise.

    Smol Ame

Regular Smol Ame

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/smol_ame.png
3D Smol Ame

First appearance: April 1st, 2021note , August 1st, 2021note 
Appears in: Watson Amelia Ch.

The first and most prominent alternate version of Amelia Watson to appear. This Amelia Watson in particular had a whole members-only stream (made public) for her arrival in our timeline and has the most on-screen interaction with our Ame.
  • Ascended Extra: Smol Ame started off as a meme that Ame would acknowledge from time to time, but for the 2021 April Fools collab, Walfie made proper live 2D models for the EN girls using this artstyle, enabling Amelia to become Smol Ame for real. If this wasn't official enough, a year later at the 2022 Hololive Super Expo, a real life mascot suit was made of Smol Ame, making her real not only in the streams, but real in our world as well.
  • Bizarre Human Biology: Her small stature aside, she has some really freaky biology quirks.
    • She explains the the simplistic appearance of her hands as similar to a Bakugan where they are perfectly spherical as a closed fist.
    • Her unblinking Black Bead Eyes are actually sunglasses that go over her real eyes which do blink. According to her, this universe's UV rays are very harmful to her eyes which is why she needs them. In fact, our Ame stated that Smol Ame will die if she stays in our timeline for too long before kicking the latter back into the time portal.
  • Breakout Character: Smol Ame started off as a fan-made meme created by Walfie, before Ame adopted it as an alternate live 2d model to stream with (along with models provided for the rest of Myth to use). Smol Ame would keep gaining prominence, eventually becoming a separate character in her own right, being featured in multiple streams and even her own solo streams. She would gain a whole fan-made game to herself that Ame and other Hololive members have played onstream. Smol Ame then gained a 3D model to be used for VR, allowing Myth to overcome the limitation of lacking 3D models due to EN being unable to go to Japan. Before finally, in the 2022 Hololive Super Expo, Smol Ame was chosen to represent EN as a real life suit-actor mascot, having finally been properly recognized and adopted by Cover as an official mascot.
  • Bootstrapped Leitmotif: Tries to invoke this when she accidentally turns on Ina'nis' background music and declares it as her theme.
  • Character Tics: Has a tendency to repeatedly slam Ame's desk while making demands like a Spoiled Brat.
  • Decomposite Character:
    • Initially, she was simply an alternate model for Ame to use, before she was given her own distinct personality in her collab stream with our universe's Ame, who uses her main Live2D model. Since then, the only time she is treated as the main Ame is during 3D VR collabs with other EN girls.
    • Later down the line, Ame reveals that Smol Ame and 3D Smol Ame became separate characters too, with 3D Smol Ame being much more toxic than the original Smol Ame. Though the two of them are generally used interchangeably and treated as the same character, with the exception of when they appear on the same stream, or when Smol Ame has her own specific review streams.
  • Dimensional Traveler: Much like Mikodanye, Smol Ame manages to manifest in the real world as a mascot during the 2022 Hololive Super Expo. Ina speculates Smol Ame kidnapped the Ancient Ones and used the power of the void to cross dimensions.
  • Heroic Comedic Sociopath: Downplayed. On-stream, the worst thing she's done is annoy Big Ame and off-handedly consider murdering another version of Amelia Watson for being smaller than her; off-stream, she broke Big Ame's GPU by accident and took a nap on it without a hint of remorse after the fact.
  • Ironic Name: Smol Ame is called that because she is "smol" and most of her appearances reflect this when compared to regular people. The real life version of Smol Ame, however, uses a mascot costume like Mikodanye, meaning that she is overall bigger than regular people.
  • I Shall Return: Makes this promise to the Investigators before being ejected into the time portal by Ame.
  • Lovable Sex Maniac: Is way more perverse than our Ame. During a review stream where she reviewed various Smol Ame drawings, she rated many of them a 6.9/10 and several of them were pretty boingy.
  • Me's a Crowd: Multiple Smol Ame have popped up onstream. While many of these instances are chalked up to them being from alternate timelines, Ame also explains that Smol Ame has a machine that can turn anything into a Smol Ame, explaining some of the more bizarre Smol Ames that have shown up.
  • Noodle Incident: According to her, there is an event known as "The Ame Wars" that our Ame keeps a secret from us.
  • Not Me This Time: When asked about the Smol Ame shorts, she states that was the work of a different Smol Ame, and was unimpressed by the quality of these shorts.
  • Other Me Annoys Me: While they are amicable, Smol Ame and our Amelia frequently annoy one another due to the former's bratty nature.
  • Pint-Sized Kid: The short stature of her model in VRChat gives off this impression in comparison to normally proportioned models. This is demonstrated to humorous effect during her collab with Roboco when she has to jump into the frame of Roboco's camera shot while the two of them are trying to take a selfie together.
  • Screw Yourself: She shares a kiss with our Ame. She also likes groping the latter's breasts much to her annoyance.
  • Spoiled Brat: What sets her apart from all the other alternate Ame's (aside from her appearance). When she arrived in our universe, she accidentally teleported on Big Ame's GPU (which is the in-universe reason for the canceled DOOM: Eternal stream) and proceeded to take a nap on it. Not only does she not apologize for it afterward, but she also calls Big Ame a "big bitch" for complaining about it when she was retelling the story to the chat.
  • The Stinger: At the end of her debut stream, we hear a phone call between her and Big Ame where she landed in a desert with her broken arm.
  • Super-Deformed: She actually hails from an Alternate Universe where everyone is as small as her. As a result, she refers to our Amelia as "Big Ame."
  • Trademark Favorite Food: Broccoli Pasta. She doesn't have a problem with gluten like our Ame so she can safely enjoy it.
  • Vocal Evolution: In her first few appearances before it was established that she was a separate character, she speaks in Ame's regular voice. However after appearing together with Big Ame and revealing she was indeed a separate individual, Smol Ame starts talking in a more gremlin-like voice.

    Bee Ame 

Bee Ame

A version of Ame who is a humanoid bee. Originally believed to be Smol Ame, is later revealed to be a separate Ame altogether.

    Amelia Buffson 

Amelia Buffson

During Ame's 2022 birthday stream, she debuted a new model featuring a large body with rippling muscles. Buffson would go onto be one of the most frequently featured Ames after Smol Ame, particularly in VR Cooking Simulator where she is dubbed "Chef Buffson".
  • Benevolent Boss: As the owner and manager of the Ministry Host Club. While a little money-hungry, she generally treats her employees well. She even puts up "Missing Person" flyers when one of her workers, Muman, fails to show up to work.
  • The Big Gal: The largest and physically strongest Ame, who is quite proud of her muscular physique.
  • Brooklyn Rage: She speaks like a stereotypical mobster complete with exaggerated Brooklyn accent as the owner of the Ministry Host Club.
  • Bus Crash: Apparently died off-screen sometime after her stint as the owner of Ministry Host Club. Subverted in that she's apparently been resurrected as a zombie, as Ame revealed that Buffson has "joined the Ollie club" in October 2023.
  • Cross-Dressing Voices: Buffson is given a more deeper voice than Ame to accommodate his masculine appearance.
  • Fan Disservice: Depending on who you ask, Buffson's Tiny-Headed Behemoth design is either hilarious.. or cursed.
  • Only in It for the Money: As the manager of the Ministry Host Club, Boss Buffson constantly brings up making money and has made some dubious choices like allowing Kobo (a minor with a stolen credit card) to enter.
  • People Puppets: During a VR Cooking Simulator stream as Chef Buffson, at one point, the camera panned over her head and clipped into her chef hat, revealing none other than Smol Ame inside controlling the bigger Ame, Ratatouille-style.
  • The Queenpin: She owns a Host Club where the HoloMinistry boys work.
  • Tiny-Headed Behemoth: Amelia Buffson has a chibi head similar to Smol Ame, attached to a comically muscular body.
  • Who Even Needs a Brain?: She gives a view inside her head to reveal... she has no brain!

    Armando Watson 

Armando Watson

Ame's Spear Counterpart, who made his debut on April Fool's Day in 2022.
  • Abnormal Limb Rotation Range: Played for Laughs, as one attempted karaoke stream had Armando's model twist and contort in rather uncomfortable looking, but also hilarious ways.
  • The Bus Came Back: Late December 2023 saw Armando making a quasi-official return after almost two years of his last appearance, albeit as Ame's avatar in Passpartout 2.
  • Non-Standard Character Design: Even among the various unofficial 3D models used by Ame and Hololive EN, Armando looks very off. His head has an almost cylindrical look to it with his face on one of the flat ends, his hair also having a flat painted on look, having almost Fingerless Hands, and noodle limbs. Let's just say, he makes Buffson look normal by comparison.
  • Reclusive Artist: In-universe example. According to Ame's Passpartout 2 stream, Armando apparently went off the grid after his debut and stayed on the secluded island where he was last seen in order to become a painter.
  • The One Guy: He's the only male Watson seen to date, not counting Watoto.
  • Toilet Humor: During his debut karaoke, there'd be a few times where he'd run off just to take a shit.
  • Totally Radical: The way Armando speaks can best be described as a cross between a surfer dude, Sonic the Hedgehog, Ash Ketchum, and Naruto.

Other Characters

    Bubba 

Bubba

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bubba.png

Appears in: Watson Amelia Ch.

The real-life pet dog of Amelia Watson, who also serves as her mascot.
  • Accessory-Wearing Cartoon Animal: He's frequently depicted wearing a detective hat similar to Amelia's.
  • Accidental Pervert: Most likely that Bubba doesn't understand the implications of his actions, but several times it's been noted by Amelia he has done some things that could be viewed as dirty-minded such as watching Amelia shower or stealing her bras.
  • Canine Companion: One of Amelia's two dogs, but he is the one primarily heard on stream.
  • Funny Background Event:
    • Bubba has a tendency of very loudly barking during Amelia's streams. Amelia will either step away for a moment in order to calm him down or sometimes joins in with a mock bark of her own.
    • Additionally, a 3D version of Bubba has a habit of randomly popping up during the 3D VR streams, providing camerawork as the "invisible cameraman".
  • Gadgeteer Genius: During the 3D VR collab streams, it's revealed that "Bubba" is the tech support and the girls at times call out to him for assistance with the layout.
  • Head Pet: Amelia's second "casual" outfit has the option of having a tiny Bubba lie on top of her head.
  • Morality Pet: Bubba is a literal one for Ame, as the numerous Evil Counterparts of her from the other dimensions are speculated to be the way they are because he is not there to keep them in check.
  • Spoiled Brat: According to Amelia, Bubba has tons of toys but his attention is always on any new thing she brings. He is also allowed to sleep on Amelia's bed and takes full advantage of this by sitting or sleeping on the pillows.
  • Team Pet: Over time, all of EN have come to grow fond of Bubba and often talk about him or even to him while on stream.
  • Ping Pong Naïveté: Most streams Bubba acts like a real life dog, but in 3D VR streams Bubba takes on a form where he becomes smart enough to be the cameraman and the tech support.
