Career
Kiara has said in interviews that hololive's auditions for a new English branch appealed to her because she thought she was a good candidate. She began training with the other members of -Myth- around June 2020, about three months before debut. She debuted on September 12, 2020, alongside Mori Calliope, Ninomae Ina'nis, Gawr Gura and Watson Amelia.
On December 9, 2020, her YouTube channel was briefly terminated. She said she had never received a copyright strike or been demonetized, and the channel was restored later the same day. On May 30, 2021, she passed one million YouTube subscribers, the last member of -Myth- to do so. She made her 3D debut in February 2024.
Activities
Streaming style
Kiara mainly streams video games and also hosts other content, including a talk show. She speaks both Japanese and English fluently. This has let her coordinate a talk show that introduces members of the Japanese branch to overseas viewers. She has collaborated with other hololive members, including Kobo Kanaeru, who has named her as her favorite member, and Moona Hoshinova.
Music and works
- "HINOTORI": her first original song, released on November 26, 2020.

Characteristics
Her character design is by Huke, who also worked on the anime Steins;Gate, a series she liked before joining hololive. Her design includes blue feather accessories that grow from behind her ears. In streams she presents herself as the owner and manager of a fictional fast-food company called KFP. Her music includes pop, K-pop-influenced and introspective songs.
