Official Bio
English: "Greetings, humans! Nakiri Ayame has arrived!"

"A kimono-clad Oni girl from the Demonic-Realm Academy. As she loves to prank people, she always uses will-o’-the-wisp on them just to have fun. Many may not realize it, but she is actually the president of the student council."

Japanese: 「人間様たちこんなきりー！百鬼あやめだぞ」

魔界学校所属の和装鬼娘. いたずら好きで、よく鬼火を飛ばして他人をからかって遊んでいる. こう見えて実は生徒会長.

Overview
Nakiri Ayame (Japanese: 百鬼あやめ) born December 13, is an oni and a member of Hololive 2nd Generation. Although her Twitter account and her Youtube Channel were both created on August 1, 2018 and August 12, 2018, respectively, she debuted on September 3, 2018. Her 3D model debut was on May 17, 2019 and soon after, on August 9, 2019, she debuted her 3D Swimsuit model. Her second outfit was announced on Twitter and was revealed on Youtube in a livestream on November 23, 2019.

As of May 21, 2020, she has 237,000 subscribers on Youtube and 345,000 subscribers on her Bilibili channel.

She streams a variety of games on her channel, like Minecraft--where she is possibly the best builder in Hololive--or FPS games such as PUBG or Apex Legends. (where she ended Season 4 at Diamond 4) Other games include Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Monster Hunter World (and its expansion, Iceborne), Mario Kart, ARK (though only for a few streams), and Rhythm Heaven.

She's known for her soothing voice and infectious giggles and laughs during her stream. She's also notoriously bad at waking up, as she's always the last to wake up in multiple morning wake-up streams.

She's known for her great luck when it comes to videogames and odds. Examples of her 'great luck' include, but are not limited to:
 * Her "The Stream Doesn't End Until I Fish Up an Enchanted Book!" Minecraft stream, where after she casts her first line, she gets an enchanted book. The odds of this happening is 0.7%.
 * Another Minecraft stream, titled "I Ain't Gonna Stop Until I Get My Diamonds!", where 30 minutes after the stream started she finds a vein of 5 diamonds. Not wanting to end right there, she wanted to find a second vein, and 15 minutes after the first vein encounter, she finds a vein of 8 diamonds. Without a fortune pick, she mined 13 diamonds, which is a 1:1 ratio of block/diamond.
 * More recently, during an Apex stream, she mentions of a skin she wanted from a weapon, and after opening just one lootbox, she gets the aforementioned skin.

Personality
She has a calm and easy-going demeanor. Most of the time during streams, she prefers to just talk about different topics and often gets sidetracked from one topic to another, before going back to the original topic 20 minutes later. While playing games, she gets very competitive, and on some moments, becomes totally silent as she tries to focus in-game. Even on a loss, however, she takes it in stride and laughs about it.

Streaming Information
Her viewers call Ayame "Ojou" (お嬢). It roughly translates to "Young Lady". She calls her fans “人間様” which literally means "Humans", while she refers to herself as "Yo" (余). The word in her context means the same thing as "I".

When something cute happens on her stream, chat will often say "Kawayo" (かわ余). This is a portmanteau of "Kawaii" (かわいい） and "Yo" (余).

Other Media

 * She was part of a collaboration with Dawn of the Breakers alongside Shirakami Fubuki, Oozora Subaru, Sakura Miko, Akai Haato, and Natsuiro Matsuri. The event ran from September 12th, 2019 to October 31st, 2019.
 * She, along with fellow members Natsuiro Matsuri, Shirakami Fubuki, Ookami Mio, Murasaki Shion, Tokino Sora and Minato Aqua, were part of a collab with Azur Lane called “Looking Glass of Fact and Fiction”, which ran from November 26th 2019 – December 11th, 2019.

Trivia



 * Her mascot, Poyoyo, was made by Fubuki. It's a white, ball-like creature that possesses the same horns that Ayame has.
 * The two swords on her back have names. The red sword is called "Ashura", while the black sword is called "Rasetsu".
 * The ghost dogs seen on her image floating around have names and are called "Karma" and "Shiranui".
 * Her favorite foods are Udon noodles and Hamburger steak. She also likes Japanese sweets, and has a fondness for Pon de Ring donuts.
 * She dislikes tomatoes and beans, the latter of which is not because of her Oni lineage, but because she doesn't like the texture and taste.
 * In a stream, she has revealed that she now owns a cat. She has named her "Ziru", from the word "Zircon".
 * Like her fellow member Hoshimachi Suisei, she has a poor sense of direction. She often gets lost on the way to other members' houses for offcollabs.
 * Due to her appearance, she often gets teased as looking like a dog. In response to this, she usually goes: "わんこじゃない！” (I am not a dog!)
 * She shares the same Illustrator with Spade Echo of Hololive China.
 * She belongs to two (by extension, two) sub-units. The first one is called FAMS. The unit's members are Fubuki, Ayame, Mio, and Subaru. The extension to this sub-unit is OKFAMS, which adds Okayu, and Korone to the group. The other unit is called "Manjigumi" (卍組; note that this is the Buddhist Swastika) comprising of the three members Minato Aqua, herself, and Murasaki Shion.
