Career
Mochi Hiyoko started her activities as a virtual YouTuber at the beginning of 2018. Her start of activity is recorded as January 5, 2018, which places her among the VTubers who appeared during the early growth of the Japanese virtual YouTuber scene. From the start she presented herself as a 3D creator VTuber, which meant both performing as a virtual character and making 3D content herself.
On April 9, 2018, she joined the multi-channel network ENTUM and stayed with it until December 31, 2019. While she was with ENTUM, she founded her own production, MochiPro, and became one of its members. Her work as a creator therefore included organizing a VTuber group as well as running her own channel.
After her time with ENTUM ended, she continued as an independent VTuber. Videos she released in 2020 call her an indie VTuber. She appears in the database entry for the anime Virtual-san Looking (Japanese: バーチャルさんはみている), a series that featured a large number of virtual YouTubers.
Activities
Streaming style
Her YouTube channel mixes videos and live streams about games and her own character. One example is a 2020 video in which she played the then-popular party game Fall Guys. The video was split into chapters for each course, including Moving Gates, Tilting Ramps, Propellers and Slime Climb, and ended with a short guide on how to play. Along with gaming content, her channel reflects her background as a 3D modeller, since she builds and maintains the 3D form she uses to perform.

Characteristics
The character is designed as a small girl with purple hair and a height setting of 140 cm. Her voice stands out, and fans sometimes jokingly call her "grandma" because of it. That nickname contrasts with her young-looking design and has become part of how fans see her. Her character has also inspired fan works. One example is a paper model by the Japanese designer S.V., released for free and printable with Pepakura Viewer. Her name and image also appear on official merchandise such as a LINE sticker set. Because she is both a performer and a 3D modeller, she is often described as a creator who makes her own virtual body rather than relying only on outside designers.
