== Charactah Account ==
Marine loves jewels, treasure, and money and her dream is to become a pirate and go treasure hunting. In order to get a pirate ship, she is now stacking up money as a VTuber on the great lands, just like how the other land-lovers do (which also means she is currently just a girl cosplayer). She acts like a big sis and sometimes seduces people like a succubus does.
Marine is a bold, fast-talking girl who often throws caution to the wind, making obscene jokes and playfully mocking both her higher-ups and her viewers. Marine describes her way of approaching people is through to talk to them so she may get in their circle, as described when talking about the differences between herself and Nakiri Ayame.
Marine often struggles to keep her lewdness in check, with her openly lusting after fictional female characters, reading BL and claiming to be a former shotacon (despite still showing some attraction in fiction). This has lead her to describe herself as extremely horny, with the phrase "I'm Hornyyyy!~♪" being a fan favorite since her 3D stream with Kiryu Coco. At times she even tries charming and seducing her way out of sticky situations, which has backfired on her at times.

== Trivia ==
* According to Marine's backstory, Marine loves money, jewels and treasure, and decided to become a VTuber to get money to buy her own ship. As such, she is officially a cosplayer and not a real pirate.
* Marine watched her first porno when she was only 5 years old while rummaging through her father's movies. She marks this incident as the origin story of the uncontrollable horniness she experiences in the present day.
* Marine is notably good at drawing as shown by these tweets, where she has drawn Shirakami Fubuki, Minato Aqua, and Natsuiro Matsuri in their swimsuits, just to name a few.
* Though Marine constantly insists she is 17 years old, she has admitted that when she visited a doctor, she was told her "body age" was 45, which was "a little higher than her actual age," and she expressed genuine shock upon hearing this. She also revealed that her "mental age" during mental training is 72.
** The physical feats that seem to support her body age include losing her breath after 10 seconds of skating in place and having a grip strength of merely 13 kg. Marine attributes the latter to inheriting it from her mother, whom she does not talk about often.
* Like Amane Kanata, Marine has a wide vocal range, with her cover of BLOODY STREAM being sung one octave lower than the original. She once put on a very high-pitched cute voice in a guest appearance with Ryushen, claiming it to be her real voice. Marine also has a very convincing Pikachu impression.
** Marine's "normal" voice is noted to strongly resemble that of Angie's from Resident Evil Village.
* Marine's spoken English skills are somewhat poor, but that doesn't stop her from trying. The broken mess that results when she attempts to communicate in English is affectionately referred to by fans as "Maringlish." She has started taking English classes.
* The hashtag '#HoushouMarine3D' became trending number one worldwide on Twitter when Marine debuted her 3D model on YouTube.
* Marine is a big fan of Touhou Project (a franchise mostly known for its "Bullet-Hell" Windows games), as evident by her game-play of Touhou Spell Bubble and her excited reactions. Additionally, Marine appeared along with Shirakami Fubuki on the 12 April 2020 episode of Super Touhou Station where they were able to personally meet ZUN (Touhou Project's creator and chief artist and programmer), resulting in Marine going into what fans have described as a "fan-girl panic-attack."
** Following previous point, it's even thought that since her character design is very "Touhou-esque" (way too bizarre or outlandish), Marine's character design was purposely made to be confused as a Touhou character. This image even worsened things making many Touhou fans confused the image with an leaked beta screenshots for Touhou 18 (one year before even announced)
** That image was for Marine X COOL&Create "#Gensokyo Holoism" CD. This music CD tales Marine's story in Gensokyo, as she ended there by "Truck-kun"'s fault.
** In one stream, Marine said that she bought Touhou 6 in its release date (during Comiket 62, almost 20 years ago), confirming that she knows Touhou Project even before was mainstream (Touhou 5 and earlier games were not even for Windows-based PCs, and they were released before 1999, and Touhou didn't got worldwide spread until late-2002), it seems that she keeps that CD to this very day.
** In another stream, she confirmed that, before being VTuber, she made Touhou fanmade doujinshi (is not clear if she made SFW or NSFW manga, but is suspected to be NSFW, and she did not reveal her artist pseudonym).
* Marine is allergic to cats as mentioned by Aqua.
* Marine is the eleventh hololive member to join the official Hololive Subreddit as a moderator.
