idol Genesis

    In General 
  • Artifact Title: idol Genesis initially started as idolHE, short for Hebrew, owing to the company's origin in Israel. However, due to the very niche market for Hebrew VTubers, along with the massive success of idolEN, they would later be rebranded from idolHE to idol Origin to better integrate them with the now predominately EN-catering agency. Later, in March 2024, they were folded properly into EN, rebranding into idol Genesis along with redesigns for the 2 remaining members, Katarina Qutie and Nikki Rei.
  • Dwindling Party: Initially starting as five members, only two remain after the graduation of Lily Sin, Emi Suika and Neo Sparkles.

    Kattarina Qutie

"Join the Mafia!"
Debut date: May 10th, 2022
Birthday: August 7th
Nationality: Israeli
Height: 155 cm
Fanbase name: Quties
Illustrator: Haruyuki
Channel: Youtube
Social Media: Twitter
"Deals and chaos is what makes reality so exciting, and yet people still misunderstood…"

Head of a feared international mafia organization and video game player.
  • Blatant Lies: Poko once asked Katta during a stream whether she was looking up French swear words. Katta's response was a very unconvincing "No!"
  • Character Tic: Katta often giggles after speaking.
  • Icy Blue Eyes: And her hair is white.
  • Omniglot: Speaks English, Hebrew, Russian and Arabic (to varying degrees).
  • Villains Out Shopping: A mafia boss who plays video games and streams in her free time.

"The Chilling & Chaos Experience"

Birthday: August 19th
Nationality: Israeli
Height: 160 cm
Fanbase name: Bonkers (formerly) / Nutheads (currently)
Illustrator: Nyori
Channel: Youtube
Social Media: Twitter

The Most Awesome Mechanical Engineer VTuber.
  • All Just a Dream: Her lore video for her redesign implies this about her past design.
  • Dope Slap: Will occasionally play a short video mid-stream of her nail-bat bonking her viewers.
  • Gadgeteer Genius: Leans into this with her redesign, creating mechanical hands, simulations and holograms for herself. Given her prosperity of arts and crafts, she's arguably this in real life too.
  • Gallows Humor: In early 2024 she stated she was instructing Poko on all things Minecraft given that she was "living in a warzone".
  • Hidden Depths: She's skilled at woodworking, plushie sewing, and made a 3D model for herself in three hours on stream.
  • The Ingenue: Zig-zagged. As she discusses in this short, Nikki assumes things have a good meaning and then finds out the "deeper darker meaning" later. Case in point from her pact with Katta.
  • Wrench Wench: After her redesign, she becomes an engineer, complete with oil stains all over her body and even calling herself a grease monkey.

E-Sekai

    Rin Penrose 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/rin_penrose_portrait.jpg

Debut date: November 11th, 2022

Nationality: English
Height: 155cm
Illustrator: Makihituji
Channel: Youtube
Social Media: Twitter

Rin Penrose is the crowned prince (NOT a princess, as she has made very clear) of a kingdom in another world. Though she attempts to mask it with the elegance and stiff upper lip expected of a royal, she's actually quite eccentric and crude, with a sharp tongue and a flair for the dramatic.
For tropes, see idol - Rin Penrose

    Fuyo Cloverfield 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fuyo_cloverfield_portrait.jpg
"Are you here for free wishes?"
Debut date: November 20th, 2022
Birthday: March 16th
Nationality: Portugese
Height: 135cm
Fanbase name: Lucky Charms
Illustrator: moeko_peach
Channel: Youtube
Social Media: Twitter

Idol EN's wish-n'-luck-granting magical leprechaun from another world.
  • Covert Pervert: You wouldn't think it looking at her, but Fuyo can be quite the degenerate. Her "Likes" in her debut unabashedly included "Tentacles" and she'd stated about Website/Deviantart that it was a hellscape, but that there's weird fetishes on there that you otherwise wouldn't have heard of. For research purposes.
  • Handicapped Badass: She once attempted this trope, aiming to play Minecraft blindfolded and accomplish tasks from a list. The results were mixed, but Fuyo did manage to accomplish enough of the tasks to clear the benchmark she'd set.
  • Hates Being Called Cute: She has threatened chat to choke them with donuts if they did. Fuyo has also denied it whenever superchats trick her into saying it.
  • Omniglot: She speaks English, Portuguese, and Spanish.
  • Those Two Guys: With Yuko.

Endless

    In General 

  • Fun Size: Barring Kai, every single member of Endless is below 150 cm, the smallest one out of the entire agency being Coni, peaking at 130 cm.

    Roca Rourin 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/roca_rourin___icon.jpg
"I guess my magic was able to reach you and alter your fate after all!!!"
Debut date: May 14th, 2023
Birthday: December 10th
Nationality: Dutch
Height: 140 cm
Fanbase name: JamStones
Illustrator: neko_pushio
Channel: Youtube
Social Media: Twitter

Roca is a sparkling witch who tries to make her public vibe and dance.
  • Gyaru Girl: Not Roca herself, but she did art streams where she made gyaru versions of herself and her genmates.
  • Humanity Ensues: Originally a (virtual) pet rock who became humanoid upon being accidentally summoned from her Tamogatchi home by a Brain expy's latest world domination invention.
  • Larynx Dissonance: Roca's speaking voice is very soft and high. Her vocal range, as she quickly demonstrated in her debut stream and covers, is immense.
  • Meaningful Name: "Roca Rourin" sounds like an altered saying of Rock'n Roll. Naturally, she looks like an idol rockstar with a passion for the aforementioned musical genre.
  • Perky Goth: Her purple and black outfit features a ton of belts and straps, but Roca herself is a very peppy young woman.
  • Stunned Silence: A $10,000 donation during her donathon reduced her to this after an initial scream of shock.

    Poko Rakun 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/poko_rakun_portrait_66.jpg

    Kai Saikota 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/captura_72.PNG

Debut date: June 14th, 2023
Birthday: September 13
Nationality: Puerto Rican
Height: 5' 5'' (Around 167 cm)
Fanbase name: Kamisitos/as
Illustrator: 鉢人 (Hachihito)
Channel: Youtube
Social Media: Twitter


  • Achilles' Heel: According to her, if the flame on her tail ever goes out, she will die.
  • And Your Reward Is Edible: The village she came across offers her food in exchange for stopping a flood from destroying the village.
  • Bare Midriffs Are Feminine: She has pretty much the outfit with the most exposure out of any active member of idol.
  • Big-Breast Pride: States her love for boobs in her likes and justifies it by saying her boobs are amazing and "mathematically perfect".
  • Big Eater: She loves to eat, to the point of saving a village from being flooded upon hearing that a feast will be held in her honor. She also mentioned that before a cookie decorating stream with the rest of Endless, she ate all the cookies before the stream.
  • Can't Hold Her Liquor: She's quite the lightweight when it comes to alcohol, with her even calling it the "Forbidden Juice" due to how quickly she ends up wasted by it.
  • Cute Monster Girl: While she's in human form, some of her traits as a fire dragon can be seen, such as her horns, her draconic hands (with claws to boot), and her tail.
  • Expy: A red-haired Statuesque Stunner dragon girl VTuber? Are we talking about Kai Saikota or Zentreya? It is worth noting that the two are different personality-wise, as Kai is rather brash and prideful compared with Zen's Cute Clumsy Girl and wholesome demeanor. Kai's model also has blue highlights, and she has a Vitriolic Best Buds relationship with Juna.
  • Fashionable Asymmetry: Not only does she wear a red piece of clothing under her jacket that covers only her right arm, but she also wears a deep blue sock on her left leg and a ripped tight on her right leg.
  • Fiery Redhead: Literally. Her hair, while not completely made of fire, does become fire towards the tips of her back hair. Also downplayed due to her personality not being as intense as her burning fire.
  • Gratuitous Spanish: She is Puerto Rican, after all.
  • Gasshole: She has been known to frequently belch during her streams.
  • God Guise: Of the mistaken for one variety. Kai was mistaken for a goddess by some villagers, and she initially tried to clear up the confusion until she realized that the villagers were offering her food.
  • Horned Humanoid: She has two red, long horns.
  • Lady Swears-a-Lot: Kai drops F-bombs like it's nothing, easily saying over a hundred per stream.
  • Narcissist: She takes immense pride in her looks, complimenting herself and commenting on how awesome she looks, getting distracted by herself, and even stating that her breasts have the golden ratio as a property.
  • Omniglot: Due to her country of origin, she's fluent in both English and Spanish while also knowing what she calls "Valley Girl".
  • Playing with Fire: If the fire dragon motif wasn't enough of a clue, she claims she's able to produce and shoot fire out of her hands, which she utilizes to fly around (whenever she doesn't use Nimby as a flying cloud, anyway).]
  • Really 700 Years Old: Claimed to be 100 years old in her debut.
  • Red Eyes, Take Warning: Her eyes can become pinkish red at will, usually when she's mad at something or someone or when she gets intense about something.
  • Ridiculously Cute Critter: Nimbussy, also known as Nimby, her cloud friend.
  • Sitcom Archnemesis: Juna Unagi is this to her, to the point of saying she's 5'9'' just to appear taller than her and discussing on Twitter over who gets to have her fellow genmate Momo Otako as wife.
  • Sure, Let's Go with That: After unsuccessfully trying to correct a village for mistaking her for a god, she offers to help stop a flood upon hearing that they are offering food.
  • Through Her Stomach: She very quickly accepts helping a village from being flooded upon hearing that a feast will be thrown in her honor.
  • Trademark Favorite Food: Although she likes a lot of foods, she craves chicken nuggets the most, especially dino-shaped ones.

Birthday: October 6th
Nationality: American
Height: 129cm
Fanbase name: Carnies
Illustrator: Yumekuikio
Channel: Youtube
Social Media: Twitter

A silly clown who just wants to make people laugh and have a good stinkin' time.
  • Age-Inappropriate Dress: While she doesn't directly indicate her age, appearance-wise, her clothing ensemble is either a size too small or too revealing. The pants look ripped in certain places and are low on the waistline, while the top underneath her jacket implicitly belongs to someone who shows off their figure, going by the Cleavage Window and backless part.
  • Character Tics: Her model has a tendency to cast an Aside Glance due to her chat's location in her setup.
  • Dye Hard: She has a "dressed down" model with brown hair, suggesting her usual green to be this.
  • Non-Ironic Clown: Not exactly a traditional clown in terms of performance, but in terms of entertaining an audience with silliness, she fits the bill.
  • Scary Teeth: While not exactly scary, her teeth are shown to be pointy like a shark.
  • Trademark Favorite Food: Has mentioned a love of pineapple.

    Pochi Wanmaru 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/pochi_wanmaru_new.png
"WOOF WOOF BARK SNARL"
Her original appearance
Debut date: November 20th, 2022
Retirement: March 23rd, 2024
Birthday: August 26th
Nationality: French
Height: 152cm
Fanbase name: Sheebs (formerly) / Ponpups (currently)
Illustrator: tsuji
Channel: Youtube
Social Media: Twitter

Idol EN’s gamer dog.
  • Animal Jingoism: While Pochi introduces herself, there is "dogs r superior cats suck" written in the notebook.
  • Body Horror: In her lore video, it's revealed that Pochi was a Shiba Inu who wanted to play video games but could not do so for lack of hands. One day, she was granted very realistic human hands and feet by a supernatural being, but doing so squicked out a nearby crowd, so it hastily transformed the dog into a young girl with canine attributes.
  • Exotic Eye Designs: Her left eye turned brown in her redesign, making her the third member of Idol Corp's lineup to have heterochromia following Rin and Riro.
  • Expy: She may remind you of one Inugami Korone of hololive fame due to both of them being energetic dog girls who started as full animals and have some sort of Japanese terminology related to dogs in their surnames ("wan" is Japanese onomatopoeia for a dog's bark). Pochi even had a pink jacket at debut, like Korone had in her casual outfit! Her redesign only brought her closer to this design-wise, darkening her hair, giving her a brown left eye, and making the jacket fall off one shoulder.
  • Gratuitous French: Pochi speaks French as well as English.
  • Hair of Gold, Heart of Gold: The original Pochi had golden-blonde hair and is a cute dog.
  • Humanity Ensues: She was originally a Shiba Inu who wanted to play video games, and a supernatural being turned her into a dog girl. Later, she tripped over a rock and got hit by a truck, and was brought back as a girl who draws from a Labrador Retriever, German Shepherd, Daschund, Dark Matter, Cat, and... some creature.
  • Idiot Hair: Both incarnations have a big one, but the original Pochi's was notably shorter, thicker, and somehow poked through her hoodie.
  • Innocent Blue Eyes: Pochi's are very round puppy dog eyes. Her left eye turned brown in her redesign, but the trope is still ever-present.
  • Little Bit Beastly: Pochi is a dog girl. In her original incarnation, she had the ears and tail of a Shiba Inu. When she tripped on a rock and was fatally hit by a truck, she was somehow brought back with as a girl who is 34% Labrador Retriever, 32% German Shepherd, 30% Daschund, 3% Dark Matter, 0.5% Cat, and 0.5%... some creature.
  • Look Both Ways: Her original incarnation's fate. She tripped over a rock and stumbled in front of a truck, which proceeded to hit her.
