Who Choya Hanabi is
Choya Hanabi is a member of VSPO!, a Japanese VTuber project focused on esports and gaming. She debuted with her first livestream on November 2, 2024, and the unofficial VSPO! wiki counts her as the 22nd Japanese-branch member. VSPO! announced her joining on October 31, 2024, together with Amayui Moka, as reported by Dengeki Online. The same wiki describes her as an energetic and earnest all-rounder who puts full effort into everything she plays, and lists takoyaki as her favorite food. Her height is listed as 170 cm, and her fans are called Kayaku (かやく).
Channel and style
Her streams center on fighting games. According to the unofficial wiki, she led a team that placed second in the VTuber Saikyo Ketteisen Ver. Street Fighter 6 on March 29 and 30, 2025, and she reached Grand Master rank in Street Fighter 6 on April 2, 2025. The same source records her win in the Dozle Hunting Festival (a Monster Hunter World event) with Team Only on January 25, 2025, and her 3D debut stream on June 27, 2025, after which she released several cover songs.
In 2026 she was on the Day 1 Street Fighter 6 roster of the VSPO! team at VSPO! SHOWDOWN 2026, held at Ariake Arena in Tokyo on March 21 and 22, according to MoguLive. On August 24, 2026, KAI-YOU reported that she was one of five VSPO! members who would run simultaneous mirror broadcasts of Street Fighter League JAPAN 2026 matches starting August 25.
How to follow and what to expect
Streams are held on YouTube, and schedules and announcements are posted on her X account. Viewers can expect fighting game play, including ranked matches and team events, along with other game titles and occasional covers. Because VSPO! members often join each other’s streams, her content sometimes overlaps with other members of the project.
