Appearance

He has short, light blue-ish purple hair with glasses and yellow eyes. He wears black earphones around his neck and has large white wings.

Background

Taishi started his YouTube channel with a stream on 2 August , 2020 where he translated a chapter from There Was No Secret Evil-Fighting Organization (srsly?!), So I Made One MYSELF! (commonly shortened to Secret Org) by Kurodome Hagane. However, it's not until his translation stream on 13 September 2020 that his live2D model first appeared.

Fans

He calls his fans "Consuls" as a counterpart to himself being an "ambassador."

Trivia

  • Taishi is a prolific real time translator for Japanese VTubers and has worked on over 170 streams. * He is a fan of Kiryu Coco and used to focus on live-translating her streams. After Coco's graduation, he still translates a variety of events from hololive members. * He's also a fan of Kson and often live-translates her streams. ** During one of her GMMF streams, Kson suddenly called Taishi up on voice call. It took him, who was live-translating the stream at the time, completely by surprise. * His given name, "Taishi," means "ambassador." ** His alter ego's name, "Yoshiaki," means "righteous" and "bright," but the kanji can also be read as "gimei," which means "false name." * Taishi served as the translator for the official English release of Secret Org. However, when the title's publication was discontinued in Japan after the second volume, despite author Kurodome Hagane continuing the series in web novel form, Taishi made the decision to fan-translate the remaining volumes with Mr. Kurodome's consent. Over the years, Taishi has diligently live-streamed his progress and released the completed chapters on his personal website. * He often does gaming collaborations with Crispy Flippers.

More Info

2021

On 25 January, Kamishiro Yoshiaki, Taishi's brother and alter ego, started his first stream using his own, separate channel from Taishi's.

On 31 May, Taishi announced that Yoshiaki's streams would move to Taishi's channel going forward.

On 26 September, he streamed the first episode of TLTalk, a talk show that "aims to introduce people involved with translating—such as translators and software developers—with a focus on those tied to Hololive and vtubers in general."

He organized a large live-translator collaboration for the hololive Sports Festival 2021 held on 6 November, where he arranged various volunteer live-translators taking turns translating all 7 related channels for 5+ hours.

On 9 November, he finally made a formal "debut stream," 14 months after he started activity on YouTube.

2022

On 26 February, Taishi held a redebut and monetization stream where he introduced his model 2.0, said to be a fusion of Taishi and Yoshiaki.
