Shubangelion
- Main article: Shubangelion
Shubangelion is a creation by Oozora Subaru within the Hololive Minecraft Server. Its inspiration and namesake are the Evangelions from the anime franchise of the same name.
Spiderchama
- Main article: Spiderchama

Halloween Myth are a quintet of bosses based on Hololive Myth's VRChat Halloween 3D model, originally designed by fan artist Walfie (creator of Smol Ame).
Canon Fan Mascot
This category consists of enemies that are directly based on official fan mascot design use by Hololive Talents.
List of canon fan mascot designs: Matsurisu, Haaton, Rosetai, Shiokko
Matsurisu 


Matsurisu are fans of Natsuiro Matsuri. Their name is a portmanteau combining Matsuri and "Listeners" (リスナー, Risunā), the Japanese term for viewers. Since risu can mean squirrel (栗鼠, risu) in Japanese, her mascot is made to look like a squirrel.
Not to be confused with Risuners which are fans of Ayunda Risu.
Haaton 

Haaton are the fans of Akai Haato. Their name is a pun combining Haato and Ton (豚) means pig in Japanese, which is reflected in their mascot. Haatons' pig appearance and stitched decapitated head are part of their image as plaything for Haato's old tsundere persona, although they retain that characterization after the Haachama transition.
Rosetai 



Rosetai are the fans of Aki Rosenthal. Their name is a combination of Rose (the shortened form of Rosenthal) and tai (隊) which means team/group/corp. Their mascot being apple knights is due to it being Aki's fan mark 🍎 which itself is chosen due to a multitude of reasons relating to Aki's rose motif.[1]
- Version 0.6 introduced the Charge variant
as an enemy in Stage 3 (Hard). This variant alongside Stage 4 final boss Moontato and Stage 3 (Hard) final boss Nurse Calli are the first enemies with the Charging attack pattern.
Shiokko 

Shiokko (塩っ子) are the fans of Murasaki Shion. Their name is a combination of the kanji 塩 that can be read as Shio, and 子 (ko), which means child, which is why their official English's name is Shio-ldren (a play on Shion and children).[2] Note that Shion's name is spelled as シオン, so the kanji was likely chosen purely for its specific sound. The design being a cat is an direct allusion to Shion's lore where she is a witch.
Canon Mascot
This category consists of enemies based on mascots associated with Hololive Talents, including fan designs that are acknowledged by the talents themselves.
List of canon mascot designs: Oruyanke, Poyoyo, Subaru Duck, Nakirigumi Karma and Shiranui, Obake-chan and Chocolat.
Oruyanke 
Oruyanke is one of Fubuki's many many mascots. Like all her mascot, it's name is a pun which in this case means "They're there!" in Japanese Kansai dialect.[3]
- They appeared in both Stage 3 and the hard version of Stage 2 reflecting Fubuki's status as a member of both Gen 1 and Gamers.
Subatomo 

Subatomo are fans of Ozora Subaru. Their name is a combination of Subaru and Tomo (友, Friend). The design use in-game is a direct recreation of the Subaru Duck, or "Shubaduck", created by fan artist Suzuki Kenta.[4] The animation feature a duck wearing Subaru's hat dancing alongside Subaru. The image became a meme and spread beyond even the Hololive community. Note that Shubaduck are considered Subaru's alternative form. For information on why Subaru is associate with ducks See: Subaru#Trivia.
- Ahijo are the name use for Subaru's most dedicated fans. The term was chosen by her fans, which is taken from a Spanish shrimp dish which happens to also rhyme with Ahiru (家鴨, Duck)
- Shubaduck, alongside Tokino Sora's Ankimo, Amelia Watson's Smol Ame, Kureiji Ollie's Udin and Sakura Miko's Mikodanye, made their real life appearance at Hololive Super Expo 2022 event as full size mascots, and were revealed at the opening ceremony alongside YAGOO.[5]
Nakirigumi 

Nakirigumi are the fans of Nakiri Ayame. Their name, Nakirigumi (lit. Nakiri Group), is similar to that of Japanese naming scheme for the Yakuza group, which resulted in Ayame's status as their Ojou (お嬢, young miss). Their design is based on Ayame's mascot familiars Karma and Shiranui.[6]
- While it isn't a full mascot, the Nakirigumi does have a fan mark to represent themselves. The fan mark look similar to the 😈 Devil Emoji but cuter and more simplified and the mark is frequently used by Ayame as the thumbnail for her Members Only Streams.[7][8]
Poyoyo 
Poyoyo is the general mascot of Nakiri Ayame. It was created by Shirakami Fubuki for Ayame.[9]
Obake-chan 
Obake-chan is the general mascot of Yozora Mel. It was part of Mel's 3D design concept by her artist Ayamy.[10] Its name directly translates to Miss Ghost.
Chocolat 
Chocolat is the general mascot of Yuzuki Choco. The chocolate naming scheme (Choco, Chocolat, Chocomate) is due to Choco's association with Valentine's Day, with her birthday being February 14.[11]
HoloCure Original

List of HoloCure original designs: Otaku, Kapu-min, Aqua Crew, Choco Mate, Spiderchama Hatchling.
Otaku 


- Main article: Stage 2/Design reference and trivia § Otaku
Otaku are enemies introduced in Version 0.5 for Stage 3 and Stage 2 (Hard). They are a representation of the Hololive reddit communities in general, and concert-going fans in particular. They were also considered the unofficial version the Tatsunoko, the fandom of former hololive talent Kiryu Coco until the introduction of actual Tatsunoko enemies in Version 0.7.
Kapumin 
Kapumin are the fans of Yozora Mel. Their name is the combination of Kapu, the Japanese onomatopoeia for biting, and min (民) meaning citizen. They are represented as bats due to Mel's lore being a vampire.
Aqua Crew 

Aqua Crew members are the fans of Minato Aqua. Their appearance in game is likely based on Aqua's Neko mascot.
- Like Suisei, Aqua has expressed no desire to give her fanbase a mascot, instead choosing to pretend they are a bunch of highschool girls, despite the disproportionate number of them being male.[12]
Choco Mate 
Choco mate are fans of Yuzuki Choco. Their in-game design is likely a simplified version of Chocolat. The chocolate naming scheme (Choco, Chocolat, Chocomate) is due to Choco's association with Valentine's Day, with her birthday being February 14.[13]
Spiderchama Hatchling 
Spiderchama Hatchlings are original to HoloCure. As the name implies, they are the spawn of Spiderchama.
- They are one of the enemies to not have an entry in the Fan Letter bestiary.
Cursed Bubba 
- Main article: Stage 1/Design reference and trivia § Thicc Bubba
Cursed Bubba is a HoloCure original variation of on Amelia Watson's Thicc Bubba mascot. The Cursed Bubba first appeared in the Launch version of HoloCure as enemies that appeared alongside Stage 1's final boss Smol Ame, while the regular Thicc Bubba served as the representation for Ame's fanbase, the Teamates.
With the introduction of the Investi-gator Teamates in Version 0.4, the Cursed Bubbas in Stage 1 were replaced by normal Thicc Bubbas, which left the Cursed Bubba enemy unused until Version 0.6, where it would reappear as part of the Halloween Myth (Myth or Treat) half of Stage 3 (Hard).
