==Content==
She debuted on January 30, 2021. Even though her streaming content is diverse, it usually consists of singing. Her Indonesian langauge learning streams are her most viewed videos. 
The first game she ever played was Keep Talking And Nobody Explodes. When she reached 10K subscribers after she streamed Dreadout for eight hours, she celebrated by singing. 
She has played Fall Guys, Omori, Darkwood, Stardew Valley. Genshin Impact, APEX Legends, Ring Fit Adventure, It Takes Two, Muse Dash, Minecraft, Pikmin 3 Deluxe, Pamali, Who's Your Daddy, Luigi's Mansion 3, House Flipper DLC Garden DLC, Slime Rancher, Jackbox Games, and Animal Crossing: New Horizons on stream. 
She has also covered Magnet - Miku Hatsune and 雪の華 - 中島美嘉, and hosts singing streams. On 30 May, Iku released her first original song, Isshoni. She announced that KODOMOi would compose the music while she would write and sing the lyrics. She would then release more original songs such as Cloudscapes.
As of July 2021 she has started streams where she reads tarot cards on a daily basis. She also hosts illustration streams and watchalongshttps://twitter.com/IkuHoshifuri/status/1498059239386140676/photo/1.
== Collaborations ==
She is also an avid player of Minecraft, and usually when collaborating with others such as Phase-Connect, it is the game they play together, though her collaboration with the VTubers of Production Kawaii was of them all playing Garctic Phone. Iku has also formed a rivalry with Yuuna because they both want Aoi's affection.
Meiko hosted a Minecraft collab of VTubers designed by Nyori which included Iku Hoshifuri, amongst others. The two became close friends in the process and Iku would collaborate with her and her sister again. Iku has also played Minecraft with Kanna Tamachi and Tenma Maemi and has played Project Winter with the rest of Phase-Connect.
Iku has played Crab Game with Aoi, Naki, Sara, Namiji, Shee, Meno, Pina, Liliana, Athelia, Shiki and Charlottehttps://twitter.com/charsuzu_kawaii/status/1491215269297115139/photo/1. She also held a stream of ENVTubers fluent in Japanese which also featured Nene, Iori and Pinahttps://twitter.com/IkuHoshifuri/status/1497559318824386563. 
She has streamed Gartic Phone with her fellow PRISM agents Aoi, Yura, Pina, Nia and Sara as well as Ringo Kujo and a few VTubers from Veehttps://twitter.com/ringo_0_0_5/status/1537364429683036160/photo/1. 
==Lore==
In a galaxy, many light years away.
There once was a lonely girl on a lonely planet.
The lonely girl would look upon a tiny blue planet from afar.
This planet was called Earth. A planet brimming with dreams.
But one day, the people of Earth had given up on their love and passions.
The girl was heartbroken.
She thought about how she could help the blue planet restore its sparkle...
And came up with an idea.
In that moment, the girl realized,
The warm feeling she felt in her chest,
Was a little dream of her own...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1B_16eqE8uI
Like all PRISM Project members, she is a special agent from the year 2120, who time travelled to the past to prevent the threat of humans losing interest and passion for others.
