- Friendly Fandoms: As part of the "Big Six", fans of Bao are on friendly terms with fans of Numi, Shylily, Juniper, Yuzu, and Trickywi due to the amount of content collaboration and overlap they have with one another. This is more pronounced given that they are all Indie Vtubers who are not restricted by corporate limitations.
- Germans Love David Hasselhoff: Being Vietnamese herself, Bao unsurprisingly has her own Vietnamese-based fandom.
- Harsher in Hindsight:
- Bao's memetic clown status has often been part of her appeal with her constant string of fails and misfortune attracting a lot of content. On the other hand, news broke out that Bao was scammed by a self-described animation company of as much as $35,000 US which was money raised for the subathon. Bao got the money back, but the event was incredibly traumatic and distressing for her, and she ended up crying on stream.
- And it happened again the following year of Feb 2024 with another scam, causing her to lose up to $16,000 US in the process over merchandising.

- And then soon after this, Bao revealed that CONQuest Expo completely forgot about her due to gross mismanagement. She was able to laugh it off, but still.
- Bao has a massive online Vietnamese fanbase, so it was disheartening to know that at the beginning of 2023 it was revealed that she was harassed by certain segments of her Vietnamese fans when she said "Happy Chinese New Year" rather than "Happy Lunar New Year", which is celebrated in both China and Vietnam. It got so bad that Bao lost interest in Vietnamese-only streams.

- Memetic Loser: She has this reputation as a class clown of the Bottom Queens due to her spectacularly embarrassing Ls that are borderline hilarious. As well as being often the center of amazing roasts from her own chat.
- Memetic Mutation: Ever since Bao realized she had a "Gamer Dent" on her head Explanation , memes immediately blew up poking fun at Bao's dent.
- Never Live It Down:
- In Bao's "You Laugh, You Lose" stream, one of her punishments was that she has to bark for 30 seconds. Later, a voice actress named EileMonty made a video in which she does vocal impressions of 50 VTubers; Bao was one of them, and EileMonty's impression is just her barking. Bao laments the loss of her dignity and claims that EileMonty did her dirty.
- Bao once tweeted about wanting to bear Blaidd's offspring, and the Tweet immediately achieved notoriety. Scott Arthur, the voice of Blaidd, initially refused to read the Tweet in this video, but he eventually relented and read it to her. Bao was giddy upon seeing this.

- Popular with Furries: An open secret, Bao herself is one, if her perverse lust for "wolf daddies" are of any indication.
