Personality

Friendly, supportive, and welcoming, Elira is a well-rounded streamer who vibes well with everyone. Often seen as a big, lovable dork, she connects with her viewers over common interests such as shonen manga or anime and tends to be well-versed in "zoomer" culture, despite her canonical age. Though relatively laid-back compared to other EN Livers, Elira is fairly cheeky in her own right and will (lovingly) tease her viewers from time to time. Her singing is held in high regard by many Livers, including those from other branches.

Appearance

She has medium length light blue hair past her shoulders with bangs covering her eyes and "wings" on the side of her head with light blue eyes and multiple cross shaped hair clips. She has white overalls over a white off shoulder sweater top with purple stripes on the sleeves.

Background

On 30 November 2020, NIJISANJI opened their first auditions for English-speaking countries, with the audition period lasting until 15 December. YouTube channels for NIJISANJI EN's first wave of Livers were created on 21 April 2021, and their Twitter accounts were created in May 2021.

On 12 May 2021, NIJISANJI's official English Twitter announced the upcoming debut of NIJISANJI EN's first wave, LazuLight, releasing a teaser with the new Livers' designs and voices. Their Twitter and YouTube accounts were also made public at this time.

Debut

LazuLight began their activities on 16 May 2021 as part of a special debut program on the NIJISANJI World channel hosted by Hana Macchia and Bonnivier Pranaja. Elira was the second of the group to debut. Her debut stream opened with her rendition of "God Knows..." and was especially memorable due to using the pun "dragon deez nuts." Afterwards, LazuLight appeared on the main channel, where each member received a piece of the moon from Staff-san. After the debut program, LazuLight released their first original song, Diamond City Lights. This song was composed by Mafumafu, and the lyrics were written by Nelson Babin-Coy and Hoshikawa Sara.

Mascots and fans

FamElira Mascot
  • Elira's companion is named Pikl, who is one of the dragons she trains.
  • Her fanbase is referred to as "FamElira," a combination of "family" and "Elira."
  • The "weewas" serve as the mascot for FamElira and are portrayed as puffy clouds with short legs, floating hands, head wings and a plus-shaped pin similar to Elira's, and a long, thin tail. The name is a combination of "wee," as in small, and "Ewiwa," one of her nicknames.
  • The end of the tail, along with the color of the body and the plus-shaped pin, are customizable.
  • The hands are interchangeable between mitten-like paws and little wings.
  • Her membership is named "Membersheesh."

Relationships

Lore

  • Elira is a dragon tamer, a dragon who trains other dragons, such as Pikl. She compares her role to human parents using toddler leashes in a shopping mall.
  • Her left eye, hidden under her bangs, has a diamond-shaped pupil similar to Pikl's.
  • She came from the sun, and traveled to Earth at some unspecified point in time.
  • Her true age has not been directly stated, but she is said to be millions of years old, making her canonically the oldest member of NIJISANJI EN.

Likes and dislikes

Miscellaneous

  • Elira was the LazuLight member who came up with their wave name.
  • Due to being one of the founding members of NIJISANJI EN, her relatively level-headed nature, her close bonds with fellow EN Livers, and strong rapport with other NIJISANJI branches, Elira is often regarded as the face of the EN branch. However, she dislikes being addressed as "daisenpai", as she feels it does a disservice to all of her hardworking senpais in other branches.
  • She has mentioned that her family members watch her streams, and they sometimes text her mid-stream with advice.
  • As a counter to the "F to pay respects" meme, Elira instead tells chat to say "E to believe."
  • She regularly browses TikTok, and is often associated with "zoomer" memes.
  • She is known for endurance streaming, and several of her most popular streams involved pressing a button for 8 hours.
  • Due to one of her eyes usually being hidden by her bangs, a running joke among fans is to claim that she only has one eye.
  • She considers her meme tag, #E1337RA, to be the funniest thing she has ever come up with.
  • During a drunk Halloween collab with Finana, Elira brought up a fan's tweet asking if Diamond City Lights was a twerkable song. Elira considered the chorus to be especially twerkable, and to test this, she and Finana began twerking in-game while singing Diamond City Lights. As the night went on, they raided and were raided by other Livers' Halloween streams. At each opportunity, Elira pressed the other Livers for their opinion on whether Diamond City Lights was twerkable, and forced them to sing while she twerked.
  • She once played Tsukino Mito's NIJISANJI personality quiz game, with her result being Lize Helesta.
  • She has stated both on streams and on Twitter that she is unable to formulate images in her head, a condition known as aphantasia. She has also mentioned that she is not able to imagine sounds in her head (including an inner monologue) or smells.
  • She is a longtime friend of Enna Alouette and Millie Parfait, and has known them for nearly a decade.
  • She has amassed a numerous amount of wives in NijisanjiEN. Among them are Pomu Rainpuff, Millie Parfait, and Rosemi Lovelock.
  • In Millie Parfait’s #MILLIECAKE2022 birthday stream, Elira recalls a story of being trapped in the subway and was asked if she was a lesbian by Enna Alouette and Millie Parfait when the three were working late.
  • She fell in love with a red-haired maid bearing a resemblance to Asuka Langley Soryu from the Neon Genesis Evangelion franchise at a maid café in Japan with Pomu Rainpuff and Finana Ryugu. Elira, who never seen Neon Genesis Evangelion besides two films before, watched the first two episodes of the anime due to the maid's resemblance.
  • She shares the same character designer with Dr.NOVA(e) of V4Mirai, Daiya Fortuna of PixelLink, Tsutsumi Pao of Nextopia, Goro Gaomi of SVP, TRiGGERPHiSH of Aegis-Link, Lorelai Loch, Lilita LaPume and the latest model of Dokibird.
