  • Agency and group: hololive production, Generation 0 (units on the official profile: SorAZ and Shotgun Rose).
  • Debut: November 15, 2018, according to COVERedge (hololive production’s own media outlet) and Anime Corner. This is a secondary reading, because the official talent page does not list a debut date.
  • Official birthday: July 1.
  • Fan name: Kaitakusha (“Pioneers”).
  • Focus: singing, composing and original music; her tagline calls her a “Virtual Diva”.
  • Status: active.

“Mirai Campanella” (official), AZKi’s 2025 single, from her official channel.

Character

The official profile gives AZKi’s tagline as “I’m the Virtual Diva AZKi! I love music and singing!” She is 158 cm tall, likes composing, cooking and long-tailed bushtits, and her 3D model was made by kasokuSato. The profile lists six hashtags that hint at her community: #AZKiART for fan art, #あずきんち for streams, #どこAZ for hololy and pilgrimage posts, #AZ歌 and #AZ声 for impressions of her singing and voice, and #ぷちあず for shorts.

What the content looks like

Music is the centre of her activity. Where many hololive talents are best known for games or talk, AZKi’s channel leans on original songs, covers and live concerts. Her official profile links three recommended videos, one of which is the original song “petrichor”, and the music video for “Mirai Campanella” at the top of this page is a good entry point if you are new to her.

Milestones

AZKi was the only artist left on INNK Music, a joint-venture label between hololive production and a partner project, after Hoshimachi Suisei moved to hololive’s main branch. Anime Corner reported on December 31, 2021 that the label would end its activities by the end of March 2022 and that AZKi would join the main hololive branch in April 2022, with a final album titled Over Light. The label name is spelled INNK, InoNaka or Innonaka depending on the source; we use INNK Music.

  • 2020: the digital single “Aoi Yume” appeared on July 10, and her 5th live “R.I.P AZHOOD” was streamed on July 25 on Niconico (3,300 yen), replacing a planned Shinjuku show that was cancelled because of COVID-19 (MoguLive).
  • 2023: she announced a move to Victor Entertainment during her July 1 birthday stream and released an EP on October 4.
  • 2025: she announced in June that the Victor contract had ended and that her music activity returned to hololive’s in-house production (KAI-YOU). The digital single “Mirai Campanella” followed on July 1, chosen through a submission process, and the EPs Re:Start and Re:Birth came out on November 5, 2025.
  • November 19, 2025: “AZKi SOLO LiVE 2025 Departure” at Pia Arena MM in Yokohama, her first solo show since leaving Victor, with Hoshimachi Suisei as a surprise guest.

Sources differ on a few points. COVERedge dates the Victor signing to July 2023 while KAI-YOU says 2022, so we only say that the move was announced at the July 1, 2023 stream. Famitsu and COVERedge say Re:Start holds the new songs while another outlet says it holds rearrangements, so we do not describe the track split.

Music

Both November 2025 EPs carry bonus versions of “The Last Frontier”, a duet with Hoshimachi Suisei; the jacket artwork is by the illustrator Violet. At the Departure concert the two performed together as the unit AS_tar and debuted “Going My Way”, while “Farewell” was written for the concert (Famitsu). At hololive 5th fes. in March 2024 she performed “The Last Frontier” with revised lyrics (COVERedge). For more on Suisei, see our Hoshimachi Suisei profile.

2026 activity

AZKi appears in the Tokyo theatre show “Belle: PROJECT LAYRA”, an animersive live based on the film Belle that runs at MoN Takanawa from October 10 to November 15, 2026. MoguLive reports that she performs two songs, “intersection (Utopia Live ver.)” and “without U (Utopia Live ver.)”, in arrangements credited to TeddyLoid. We cover the show in our report on the Belle animersive live. Beyond that, we found no other 2026 solo release or concert announcement in the sources we opened.

Collaborations and related talents

Her closest musical partner is Hoshimachi Suisei, with whom she shares the history of INNK Music and the songs “The Last Frontier” and “Going My Way”. COVERedge also quotes a March 2026 interview in which AZKi said she wanted to pack the past seven years into her concert, a useful pointer to how she views her own career.

Where to start

  • Watch the recommended videos on her official profile, starting with the original song “petrichor”.
  • The Departure archive was sold as a stream via ZAIKO and SPWN for 6,500 yen until December 19, 2025 (Famitsu, KAI-YOU); similar services are likely for future shows. Our guide to watching VTuber concerts from overseas explains the process.
  • Merchandise appears in the hololive official shop’s AZKi collection (we did not open that page).
