==Biography==
===Debut===
Capo Miyo debuted on February 26th, 2021, introducing herself, her channel, and the type of content she produces. Among her early uploads are a cover of "Baka Mitai"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gl-shxOBP88 |【Cover/歌ってみた】Yakuza 0 Baka Mitai (Short Cover by Capo Miyo)【ENVtuber】・ 27/02/2021 and the first episode of "Dark Souls 3" in a let's play formathttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yg9xnDO0j0o |【Dark Souls 3】 The Rising of Capo #1【ENVtuber/Capo Miyo】・ 28/02/2021. Initially uninterested in live streams, she gradually shifted to primarily hosting them after her first live stream featuring the mobile game "Granblue Fantasy" + karaokehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MEjd4JKajhE&t=5s |【Granblue Fantasy / グラブル】 100 rolls are here! Capo's first livestream + karaoke!【ENVtuber/Capo Miyo】・ 20/03/2021. 
She uploaded a new 'debut video' after updating her model to version 3.0, released on February 25, 2023.
===Personality===
Her personality is that of a hot-headed tomboy. Impulsive and seemingly gruff, she may come across as rude, but it's her way of hiding a kind and altruistic side. She tries to act like a mafia boss, but her professionalism often falters due to her clumsy and childish nature. She cares a lot about her viewers, affectionately nicknaming them ‘Familia’ (family). Even though she jokes a lot with them, it's not uncommon for her to show great affection. 
At times, she can behave like a tsundere a little bit.
==Appereance==
===Profile===
The most recent descriptions depict her as a girl who stands at 170cm (5.5ft) in height, with pale skin and a robust physique. Among her distinctive features, she bears a visible scar on the left side of her face, extending from the jawline to halfway across her cheek.
Her hair is of medium length, wavy, and in a bright scarlet red shade, accompanied by thin eyebrows of the same colour.
Her eyes are large and bright, with a slanted shape extending outward, displaying a pinkish hue with red highlights and a small dark pupil. The lashes are thick and dark brown. A small mole is situated beneath her right eye, often concealed by strands of hair that cover the edges of her face.
===Clothing===
She wears a formal outfit, consisting of a white double-breasted shirt with a narrow V-neck, while the high-waisted trousers are elegant and dark blue, tightened at the hips by a thin black belt. The boots are also black and, according to emergency room reports from her victims during scuffles, appear to have one or more reinforced iron components.
Under the shirt collar, she wears a silver chain rosary, adorned with a trim made of ruby, and in the middle, there's a design showing a red rose from above. Just below the sternum, she wears a black tactical elastic band; although, since she prefers a physical approach over the noise generated by firearms, the band doesn’t have holsters. She left no fingerprints in any of her incursions due to her habit of keeping her hands covered with black driving gloves, secured at the wrist by a strap.
She wears a long dark blue coat, double-breasted like the shirt. A crimson red rose on the left side of the jacket represents her status as an underworld boss, as well as being a reference to the movie ‘The Godfather’ Starting from version 3.0, the jacket is worn over the shoulders.
