Personality
Suiting for that of a host, Fuwa has a friendly and approachable personality. He enjoys singing and even kickstarted his debut livestream with a surreal cover of CLUB PRINCE's "Love Dokkyun".
The amusing cover has set the tone for the rest of his livestreams, where he is often caught saying random, nonsensical things, making noises to himself, and making equally nonsensical thumbnails for his videos - because of this his fans often say he is brain dead.
He will often stream for extended periods of time, sometimes for ten hours or more.
Appearance
He has short, flowy silvery hair with purple and pink streaks and light purple eyes and piercings with a dark fancy patterned suit.
Background
Minato's YouTube channel was created on 16 October 2019, and his Twitter account also created in the same month. His first tweet was made on 28 November 2019.
