Interview: Nerissa Ravencroft Talks Her Music, Twitch, and Future
It’s been a busy November for Hololive Vtuber Nerissa Ravencroft, what with her being part of the Twitch Holoday takeover event and celebrating her birthday on November 21, 2025. Not to mention her second anniversary with Cover was this year, and preparations for 2026 beginning. Siliconera got a chance to check in with her again to learn more about how things are going and what’s next.
First, thanks for taking the time to talk to us again! It’s been about a year, and last time we did you talked about releasing an original song and hitting 700k followers. How does it feel to be closing in on a million after your second year with Cover, and are you planning any sort of special marathon stream when you get closer to that 67,000 milestone?
Nerissa Ravencroft: It’s my pleasure! Honestly, the idea of hitting 1 million subscribers is really exciting to me…! I have to keep working hard so more and more people can listen to my music and want to support me! Currently, I’m planning a lot of really exciting projects for new and old fans alike, so I hope everyone will keep their eyes peeled for the projects I’m working on.
You released your first EP called In My Feelings back in August 2024. Would you prefer to work on another EP next or dedicate yourself to a full album?
Nerissa Ravencroft: Getting to work on In My Feelings was a really new experience for me, since I’d only ever worked on and released singles in the past. Having to review and give feedback, write lyrics, and record so much at once was really exciting for me! Working on music is truly my happy place, so while I plan to keep producing original music no matter what, I’d really love to release a proper debut album. Regarding EP’s specifically, I’m not sure I’ll do another unless I have a really solid idea for one in the future.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hgMl8y2ufIg
You worked on two major, original duets with fellow hololive Vtubers in 2025, which were “100%” with Moona Hoshinova and “Over//Ride” with Mori Calliope. What was the experience like working on each one, and how does your preparation on a duet differ from when you’re working on original solo tracks or covers?
Nerissa Ravencroft: Getting to work with senpai I admire so much, like both Moona and Calli, has been so incredible! I had never imagined I’d have an original duet with such wonderful diva’s, so I can’t help but feel extremely pleased. Since both “100%” and “OVER//RIDE” are technically Moona and Calli’s songs respectively, the experience of working on it was more minimal compared to creating originals for myself. With my own projects, I’m very “hands-on”, so I often have a clear vision in mind or give a lot of feedback, and since I tend towards doing the lyrics myself it can usually be fairly intensive emotionally. It was nice with both songs to sit back and just enjoy singing.
You got to be one of the Hololive and Holostars Vtubers taking part in the Twitch Holoday event! What did preparation for that look like, and how did you decide to take part?
Nerissa Ravencroft: As someone who has used both Twitch and YouTube as a viewer, seeing the way the chat integrated is very interesting to me. Both websites have their perks, and I know some people feel very strongly about one or the other. Since hololive streams mostly exclusively on YouTube, I know there’s a lot of people who might love it, but haven’t had a chance to get into it due to only wanting to use Twitch. I wanted to use the opportunity to introduce more Twitch users to the joys of hololive! Since my birthday is in November, we’ve been handling a lot of major preparations for that, but I hope Twitch users can enjoy all of the holotalents streams over on Twitch!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_mThZIRqIBs
How do you feel streaming on Twitch compares to the YouTube experience for your personal streaming experiences and performances?
Nerissa Ravencroft: Personally, as a streamer, I feel like the differences aren’t that large. Twitch offers some perks YouTube doesn’t, and YouTube offers some perks Twitch doesn’t, so it ultimately boils down to each streamer's personal preferences. When it comes to integrations, Twitch has a lot more, so it can feel a bit intimidating but they can really up the experience you get while watching a stream! I really hope YouTube will continue to expand it’s options for streamers.
You also just celebrated your birthday event! Now that you’re a seasoned Hololive Vtuber, how does the planning work for these and do you feel your approach changes compared to when you first started with Cover?
Nerissa Ravencroft: Even though I’ve been here well over 2 years now, it really passed by in the blink of an eye! No matter what, I want to continue to do my best to create exciting projects that resonate with my fans. I guess, if anything, I’ve maybe learned that it’s okay to be a bit more picky, or to put my foot down if I’m not satisfied with something! I always want everything to be perfect, but when first starting I was very nervous to say no or that something wasn’t to my liking, but I’ve become more confident in myself in the sense that, I’m happy I can be in a space where I’m comfortable enough to put my foot down and bluntly state my opinion!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ub9_vBd6N30
Members of your family have come up on stream, and at the end of September 2025 your father made his debut! What kind of convincing and prep work went into that, and how did he feel about it? Think we’ll see him again?
Nerissa Ravencroft: Surprisingly, not as much as you’d think! On my side, it was choosing questions, securing art rights from the incredible fan designers, and the usual behind the scene prep stuff. As for my father, I think he was more excited than anything! My whole family is supportive of me, and they’re good sports about it when I invite them to be on my streams. It’s a very happy occasion I think because we get to make a fun memory together that’s immortalized. It does help that all of us are diva’s in our own way, though~ I do hope to have them all on my stream again in the future, but it’ll stay infrequent.
You recently did a lyre ASMR! How do you feel that went, and do you think we could see more performances?
Nerissa Ravencroft: It was really exciting! I’ve never been able to properly play an instrument before, aside from my voice. I’m still a beginner, but I’d like to continue to develop my ability so I can improve my natural musicality, note recognition, and potential upgrade to a harp! But, for now I’ll be focused on lots of solo practice and learning songs I am familiar with. Once I master them and am very comfortable playing, I can hopefully find more uses for it! I hope my audience will enjoy watching me improve!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zCI6n1l_TGM
Since we’re getting to the end of 2025, any thoughts on what your personal game of the year was?
Nerissa Ravencroft: This is a really difficult question to answer. I think what I like in a game is a bit different then some other gamers. I tend to prefer either horror or very slow, easy, slice-of-life farming simulator types. With that in mind, I very thoroughly enjoyed Silent Hill f ! Even though I’ve already played through all five endings and watched countless breakdown videos, I’m still thinking a lot about the game. I’m super stoked that Ryukishi07, one of my favorite writers of all time, was able to write for a series that I love, such as Silent Hill . If I had more time, I’d have liked to play Blue Prince, Clair Obscur, and Hades II, as those were some games that I didn’t get the chance to try but was interested in.
2026 will be your third year with Cover! What kinds of goals do you have set for next year?
Nerissa Ravencroft: I’m constantly working with Cover and my managers to make my big dreams into a reality! I don’t wanna say anything and potentially spoil expectations if anything gets delayed, but I’d really love to release more of my own original music and covers, and will keep working hard with that goal in mind! I hope everyone will keep their eyes and ears peeled~!

Exclusive Riftbound Spiritforged Card Reveal - Jax, Unrelenting
Riftbound, the League of Legends physical trading card game, has had its Origins set go live worldwide. Now, Riot Games is looking towards its second set, Spiritforged; and Game Informer was offered the opportunity to reveal one of its upcoming Champion cards. Surprisingly, our chosen card wound up being one familiar to both myself and fellow Video Editor Alex Van Aken. Jax is, in League of Legends, a potential menace in the top lane. As the last weaponmaster of Icathia, he wields a lamp as his chosen implement, leaping around the battlefield and smacking foes left and right. His Champion card Jax, Unrelenting reflects his particular proclivity for weaponry. Jax, Unrelenting is Jax's Body (aka Orange) Champion Unit, standing at 3 Might for 4 and one Body Rune. The real eye-catching text is in the bonus text, however. Jax's Weaponmaster ability allows you to Equip an existing piece of Equipment on the field to Jax for one Rune less, even if it's already attached. This makes upcoming Equipment pieces like the Long Sword a free Equip-on-entry for Jax, The Unrelenting. The second slice of text says that when you attach an Equipment to Jax, Unrelenting, you may pay 1 to draw 1. Card draw can be a very powerful advantage in card games. This version of Jax means you're drawing deeper into your deck, finding more options, and making use of those odd bits of floating, untapped Rune power. Jax's associated Legend, Grandmaster at Arms , makes it easy to attach and detach Equipment as well. It seems like Jax is the Legend to go after if you want to lean into Spiritforged's introduction of Equipment. Get some early pieces on the board, fight and tussle, and then play Jax, Unrelenting to vacuum up some equipment for card draw and a giant push. I don't think anyone will want a piece of the champ after that. The next Riftbound set Spiritforged is currently set for February 2026 in English, and December 2025 for China. Go check out the other cards being announced and revealed during this preview season over here .

Twitch Aware of Holoday Hololive Yagoo Emote Unlock Issue
November 20, 2025 is the Twitch Holoday event, which involves Hololive and Holostars Vtubers streaming, and it turns out not everyone is able to unlock the Motoaki “Yagoo” Tanigo Twitch emotes as planned. Cover confirmed the issue on social media and noted that both it and Twitch are aware and working on it.
How the event is supposed to work is anyone who watches Hololive or Holostars Vtuber streams on Twitch for certain periods of time are supposed to unlock up to three free emotes of Yagoo’s face. (These are called Y agoo, Sadgoo, and Kingoo .) This can only be done on November 20, 2025, and someone needs to watch three hours total to get all three. While some people are acquiring them with no issues, others have been reporting problems since the event started.
Many Hololive EN and ID Vtubers are taking part in the event, as are Holostars members like Octavio and Crimzon Ruze . One of the first streaming sessions is a massive Among Us session with folks like Kiara Takanashi, Moona Hoshinova, Vestia Zeta, Fuwamoco and Mococo Abyssgard, Nerissa Ravencroft, Elizabeth Rose Bloodflame, Raora Panthera, Koseki Bijou, and Kureiji Ollie. That began at 5am PT/8am ET on November 20, 2025.
Hololive and Holostars Holoday is live on Twitch all day on November 20, 2025, and the some people may experience issues getting the free Yagoo emotes while Cover and Twitch troubleshoot an issue.

Street Fighter Juri-Chan Nendoroid Can Throw a Tantrum
A Nendoroid of Juri-chan, the version of Juri Han that stars in the Street Fighter You’ve Got This, Juri (Ganbari, Juri-chan ) comics online , will arrive in 2026. She’ll feature a number of face plates inspired by her reactions in the series, which can be viewed on social media worldwide and are collected on an official site in Japanese. It will cost ￥6,900 / $43.99 . Ordering it direct from Good Smile Company nets people a special postcard with art by Kangyaku, who creates the manga.
