Overview and Tips

Akai Haato is a character of two sides: the pure-hearted Haato vs. the dark Haachama, which players can switch between using the Change of Heart Icon.pngChange of Heart Special Attack. Haato is a close-combat character specializing in healing and defense, while Haachama is a ranged damage-dealer who piles on attack buffs along with damage-over-time through her poisons. The ability to switch between these two specialties is her unique feature, allowing her to adapt to most situations. For example using Haato when trying to survive off-map enemy waves or dense projectile attacks vs. using Haachama's damage output against bosses.

This constant switching is made possible due to Change of Heart having the fastest cooldown time of all special attacks in the game, at only 10 seconds, allowing players to constantly spam the ability to make the most use out of its area-of-effect damage burst. The Coexistence Icon.pngCoexistence skill however adds what can be considered a soft cooldown timer to Change of Heart, since at max level Coexistence requires the special attack to be used after at least 50 seconds to activate its effect of combining both Haato's and Haachama's skills. Players can thus decide whether to wait for Coexistence to be ready before using Change of Heart, or to switch between forms in the meantime either due to wanting a specific form for a situation or using its AoE burst damage for crowd control.

Trivia

  • Red Heart Icon.pngRed Heart's name is based on Haato's primary motif, which is a red heart. This is due to "Red Heart" being the literal translation of "Akai Haato": Akai (赤井) is "Red" (赤い in adjective form), while Haato (はあと) is the Japanese transliteration for "Heart".
    • The weapon also shares its name with the Haato original song of the same name.[1]
  • Her special attack Change of Heart Icon.pngChange of Heart and the Coexistence Icon.pngCoexistence skill both reference a collection of short videos and streams Haato made in 2021, which portray Haato and Haachama as twin sisters who are forced to share the same body through some grisly experiences. Coexistence is a more direct reference to the Twitter Hashtag #COEXIST, which hints to the eventual conclusion of the two personas learning to live with each other.
    • Purity And Insanity Icon.pngPurity And Insanity is more of a reference of how these personas are also portrayals of different phases of Haato's career, with Haato being her original, more restrained, and innocent portrayal, while Haachama is the persona used for more unhinged and risque content.
    • The name "Haachama" was originally coined by Haato as a less formal name for herself. It is a more childish way of saying "Haato-sama", the nickname used by Haachama's old tsundere personality. The name was popularized by a Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes stream between Haato, Houshou Marine, and Kiryu Coco.[2]
  • Worldwide Strongest Idol Icon.pngWorldwide Strongest Idol is based on one of Haachama's self-proclaimed titles. "Worldwide" comes from the fact that she has traveled around the world (Japan, Australia, the Philippines) and is the first bilingual member of hololive, whereas "Strongest Idol" is based on her struggles and achievements both as a VTuber and a person.
