Mirai Akari

Akari is a very extroverted and energetic person, who does big gestures during speaking and having an expressive face. She is also known for her double-entendre and dirty jokes, which almost all the time gets her in trouble.

Mirai Akari has blond hair tied in a side ponytail with a silvery-prism colored butterfly-shaped blue ribbon. She has blue eyes and a slender yet voluptuous body. Her Bust/Waist/Hip measurements are 90/55/86 centimeters (35/22/34 inches).

Akari's YouTube channel was created on 1 March 2014. The channel originally belonged to VTubing pioneer Eilene, hence its unusual title "BitTranslate". Eilene used the channel from at least as far back as 3 August 2014 until 25 August 2017, under the name "アニメ娘 「エイレーン」 （BitTranslate" ("Anime girl Eilene").

A channel name change announcement was made on 24 October 2017, mentioning the Mirai Akari project. On 25 October 2017, a short introductory video featuring Akari was uploaded.

She officially debuted 27 October 2017, with a video where she introduced herself.

• Her fans are known as the Mirai Club. In Japanese they are called 「ミライ部」, "miraibu", or 「部員）」("-buin", club members)

• Akari is part of an unofficial group known as the Four Heavenly Kings, an unofficial group of top VTubers circa 2017. The term originally applied to Kizuna AI, Kaguya Luna, Mirai Akari and Virtual Noja Loli Kitsunemusume Youtuber Ojisan. After Kizuna AI was promoted to Boss due to her phenomenal success, Dennou Shojo Siro filled the gap as the fourth member.

• Originally, Mirai Akari was intended to be a time traveler who was sent from the future to the year 2017 under unknown circumstances. Once she arrived into the present, Akari lost her memories of her previous life as a side effect, and now while she struggles to find her mission, she tries to have a connection with humans via her YouTube channel. ** This concept now is barely brought into her recent videos and now she does more conventional videos such as game walkthroughs, livestreams or about trendy/humorous subjects.

• Her hobby is egosearching, so she calls herself "princess of egosearching" (エゴサーの姫 / egosa no hime).
• Her favorite food are hamburgers and her favorite drink is Dr. Pepper.

• Her nickname Danchou comes from Orga Itsuka (a character of Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans). * The sound that is produced after her signature greeting (ハロー、ミライアカリだよっ！/ Hello! Mirai Akari da yo!) is called the "Pirorin" (ピロリン). It's a running gag on her livestreams that the Pirorin sounds with a delay after she delivers her greeting or asking her audience on live events to mimic the sound. ** The Pirorin was eventually anthropomorphized and it is now the avatar of Mirai Akari's videos producer, appropriately called pirorinman.exe (ピロリンマン.exe). * Her channel was formerly Eilene's main channel. Eilene moved to Moemi's channel since Mirai Akari's debut. * She and Kaguya Luna did a collaboration video which was posted on Luna's channel. Since then, she did more collaborations with several VTubers, including Siro, her colleagues on ENTUM, Kashiko Mari, among others. * Akari was one of the first VTubers to interact with her fans on the platform VRChat and also to talk with other VTubers via Superchat. * Her (current) production company is ZIZAI Inc. (at the time known as DUO Inc.), and she was represented by its in-house talent agency ENTUM. * Due to her voice range, she also perform as Kokoro Yami (ココロヤミ, a low energy version of her) and Teacher Akari (アカリ先生) (a more mature version of her wearing glasses). * Akari's cover of Crusher-P's "ECHO" is one of her most viewed videos (with more than one million views). She performed the song live at the Nico Cho Party on November 2018. * She debuted as a DJ at Re:Animation 13 on 12 January 2019 and again on 8 December 2019 at the Re:animation 14, this time featuring music of Yoruno Neon as part her DJ live set. * Her art was illustrated by KEI, who also created Hatsune Miku's V2 voicebank art.
