Natsuiro Matsuri debuted on June 1, 2018. Most of her next videos were of her song covers, especially of popular Japanese singers who worked in anime such as Aimer. Her most viewed video is her and Rikka singing "King Gnu"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j84IEsVYGyE&ab_channel=MatsuriChannel%E5%A4%8F%E8%89%B2%E3%81%BE%E3%81%A4%E3%82%8A. One of her songs even included a cameo of Usada Pekora and Houshou Marine. However, the first game she ever streamed was APEX Legends, along with Fubukihttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6m0cP9Ehgck&ab_channel=MatsuriChannel%E5%A4%8F%E8%89%B2%E3%81%BE%E3%81%A4%E3%82%8A. The next game she streamed was VALORANT. 
She enjoys many types of games, such as simulation games, mobile games, and shooting games, though she has a terrible time with horror games. She has become very skilled at FPS games like APEX Legends and Valorant, and is so good at the former that she often schools Coco and Rushia in it. She has a bubbly, chaotic and energetic personality, posting copypastas on Twitter. She has stated that her goal is to be a voice actress. Her chatting streams have revealed that she likes Lolicon. 
In addition, she has also invited her family members on stream - her mom appears in her Q&As and her brother appears in various miscellaneous streams, and the two siblings even sang karaoke once. Her family also has a dog, a Pomeranian known as Kuu-chan, but ironically she is allergic to them.
==Collaborations==
A huge Nijisanji fan, Natsuiro cites Hoshikawa Sara as her favorite VTuber and eventually had the opportunity to make multiple collabs with her.
In 2021 Matsuri often would collaborate with the VTubers of VapArt and Virtual ESports Project for APEX Legends streams.
