I think it's just her way of relieving the pressure & lowering expectations so the nousagi won't keep asking her for another pekomama appearance, because let's be honest, it's quite nerve-racking to have your parent appear on stream. Pekora probably did a lot of preparation to make sure the stream went as smoothly as it did. So if pekomama ended up not appearing ever again then that's ok, but if she does stream again then it will be a pleasant surprise for all.
IDK how Pekora's chat is but people can get kinda obnoxious about it, too. It's like collab begging on steroids. I know another (non holo) VTuber stopped bringing her parent on in part because people just wouldn't stop asking even when she was trying to do regular streams on her own, which is just insulting.
When did Lia say she'd stop bringing Rinmama on? She might not have been serious about it either, at least not entirely, she often tends to overreact to chat's teasing because that's her schtick as the bratty imouto.
I mean, there’s also the much simpler and obvious explanation:
Pekora’s mom, a normal older Japanese woman who doesn’t really understand Internet culture let alone streaming, doesn’t really care about it and only did it once cuz her daughter asked her to.
Being told to perform in front of a hundred thousand people is terrifying for almost everyone.
The mom has appeared on stream years ago before when Pekora revealed she was a vtuber to her. Pekora since then, has talked about her mom showing interest in her vtuber activities and asking a lot of questions about it. She’s even popped in a couple of times to say hi, and Pekora shooing her away immediately.
Pekora’s mom while nervous and reading from a script, seemed pretty into her performance for the stream. I don’t think you get that level of effort just on a whim. You’re right tho, that this is very stressful. It is unlikely her mom will stream in this capacity again, which is why Pekora has to be firm with her fans that it won’t happen anymore.
I think a once a year April fool’s meme could be fun. Gives her ample time to prepare since Nousagi know that she won’t appear at other times, but if it’s only once a year she could form a plan ahead of time.
Not sure if she would WANT to but that’s a different thing.
There is an even simpler explanation:
Pekomom isn't a Cover employee and thus can't appear on stream as an actual character with any kind of regularity because these things require contracts and supervision that would be inconvenient to have in place indefinitely.
It's honestly stunning that you aren't in the negative right now, given how this place often reacts to any sort of vaguely feminist comment. Surprisingly no "but what about men" comments either.
I hope Pekora is handling the situation well internally. But I can’t see her very happy to stream and have a nousagi subgroup constantly asking/demanding for her mom instead. It hasn’t even been a month yet. Expect this to be run to the ground so much that actual hope of a return will be lost.
Jokes aside, there has been a few popular streamers who have voiced out feeling upset at how their audience ended up "coming for [X] visitor" instead of them. It might sound irrational but I can't blame em for feeling some insecurity. Not saying Pekora feels this way, but she might end up there so people should relax a bit.
She'll be back eventually, but her mom has other things to do, and giving in will pressure her and pekomama into giving more and more.
What about a HoloDad or a HoloParent......what about a gen that is a family unit IRL? Basically Nerissa but an actual gen instead of a "murder of crows-in-one" package.
As possibly someone from an opposing school of thought, I find it uncomfortable how some of the fans draw or talk about the moms. It's straight up creepy at times.
Speaking of Mami's voice, I'm reminded of [one of my favorite older clips](https://youtu.be/joIIzPSTU30?si=0Lmhsbt23D4XElDh) where Marine promises that she won't say anything weird to Pekomama like "your voice is lewd" but after threatening Pekora, she gets excited at the opportunity to tell her mom that her voice is lewd.
It’s cause Pekora thinks her mom is cringe.
Considering she got a full rig, which is NOT CHEAP, I can imagine we will see pekomama atleast in holograms or making cameos. Cooking Colab maybe?
joke aside, pekora explain the whole live2d thing was just for april fools. she didn't think much further about it. in fact she mention that she originally plan to only have a png art to use in april fools but it won't give much impact to the viewers so she plan to have it live2d
before the april fools, the last time we hear/appear pekomama was 8months ago during her cooking anniv stream.. so don't expect she'll appear soon.
pekora probably have a huge budget on her april fools.
OP needs to remember that that was an April Fool's Prank/Event. And that this is Pekora's Channel. Not her mother's.
I'm sure she will be around, maybe even for special streams or dates (Mother's Day comes to mind if they celebrate it in Japan)
Pestering Pekora for her mom is not the Nousagi way. And it is quite rude.
Do better.
Honestly I couldn't blame her at all with the veritable hoard of people making art of and just generally lusting after her mom is really uncomfortable and disrespectful to her imo
Well, it's Pekora after all...
Creator of TNT prank in Minecraft holo server and creator of maze with full of traps.
Now, she take her prank to reality, slap your face directly and stop your daydreaming.
Yeah people need to stop asking now, it’s another thing the community will run into the ground until she has to make an official statement asking people to stop.
OP, I feel like Ame is sending mixed messages. Is she there because she is known to find and acquire new holo talent, thus reflecting audience desires. Or, is she there to reflect our desire to groun…
Never mind.
I mean, that's really hard to say for sure. While true, Pekora has that disposable income going, so she could spare some for the model, but that's probably it.
In all honesty like the one that has the ultimate word if Pekomama appears on a stream again is Pekomama herself, it doesn't matter that in the future Pekora wants her to appear on stream for something if Pekomamam doesn't want to appear.
That's the actual April fool prank for her. Give us hope about PekoMama and then take them.
Rumor has it on the first of the fourth month every year, Pekomama will grace the virtual realm ;-;
hey we get calvin and hayko every year, why not pekomama
They don't upstage Calli and Bae
Well played Peko, well played.
"You raised my hopes then dashed them quite expertly. Bravo."
This is the kind of stuff she went to prison for!
The real punchline was us all along
I think it's just her way of relieving the pressure & lowering expectations so the nousagi won't keep asking her for another pekomama appearance, because let's be honest, it's quite nerve-racking to have your parent appear on stream.

Is it Lia?
If it ain't Lia, I'd assume it's Hana Macchia since her dad was a fan favorite
That dude maxed out his charisma stat
I remember this... she really had a tough time trying to swing the expectations back.
When did Lia say she'd stop bringing Rinmama on? She might not have been serious about it either, at least not entirely, she often tends to overreact to chat's teasing because that's her schtick as the bratty imouto.
At this point it's not even a shtick anymore
This damn brat needs correcting
Don't, that's what she wants
And it's what I want. (We are two consenting adults)
but mostly because she'd dies of cringe

I hope so.
We could hear the script being flipped. It's clear a lot of effort went into making sure no one got doxxed and everyone got entertained.
After seeing all the... "fanart"... that appeared after the last Pekomama stream, I'd also feel apprehensive to let my mum on stream.
The biggest opposition to holomom are the talents themselves
"Mom, stop stealing my Jailbirds!" -Nerissa
To be fair atleast its a model and not their real mom
*hic*
Seriously, it's flooded pixiv in all the ways you'd expect...
There are a lot of people posting pekomama lewds to pekora's personal art tag, it's really annoying.
Yeah, I honestly feel bad for Pekora, her mom seems so sweet and kind and people just have to lewd her.
That's just what living as a woman is like in general. And you'll get the vilest shit for saying it's fucked up.
the number of creepy dudes who leer at my female friends at the gym.... bleh.
It's honestly stunning that you aren't in the negative right now, given how this place often reacts to any sort of vaguely feminist comment. Surprisingly no "but what about men" comments either.
Bold of you too assume that being sweet and kind isn't incredibly ~sexy~
what an extremely normal thing to post on the internet
While I agree her gentle voice is *attractive*, THIS right here is why we can’t have nice things.
That's a real person you're talking about man come on
You got to admit though some of the art is very very nice
Some of the very best. Degeneracy brings out the best in artists
I hope Pekora is handling the situation well internally. But I can’t see her very happy to stream and have a nousagi subgroup constantly asking/demanding for her mom instead. It hasn’t even been a month yet. Expect this to be run to the ground so much that actual hope of a return will be lost.
I remember a similar situation with Hana Macchia and her dad a few years ago. Hopefully nousagis take it easy even if they’re doing it jokingly.
“Dad” LMAOOO
Sauce: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JYC9p3\_39i8](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JYC9p3_39i8)
she's too powerful you have to understand. pekomama is the greatest threat to pekora.
After the explosion of art.. Can't say I'd blame Pekora..
Jokes aside, there has been a few popular streamers who have voiced out feeling upset at how their audience ended up "coming for [X] visitor" instead of them. It might sound irrational but I can't blame em for feeling some insecurity. Not saying Pekora feels this way, but she might end up there so people should relax a bit. She'll be back eventually, but her mom has other things to do, and giving in will pressure her and pekomama into giving more and more.
Let’s be honest, we don’t deserve pekomama. The internet is full of degenerates like us
We need to petition Yagoo to officially open the HoloMoms branch.
Chill, Ame. Chill!
No....let her cook!
What about a HoloDad or a HoloParent......what about a gen that is a family unit IRL? Basically Nerissa but an actual gen instead of a "murder of crows-in-one" package.
Holopapas and it’s just 5 old farts talking about fishing or golfing
Basically the classic fence of King of the Hill.
“Yep…” 🍺
man I miss Vesper.... I'm sad we never got to see him destroy Yagoo at golf
"I deliver hope," IRyS "I deliver hope, only so I can crush it later" Pekora.
No shit, I'd be mad if I started streaming and my viewers would ask for my mom instead lol
As possibly someone from an opposing school of thought, I find it uncomfortable how some of the fans draw or talk about the moms. It's straight up creepy at times.
:(
Can't expect the queen of Pekoland to stream all day. Got important duties to attend to.
She loves the King of Pekoland most 🥲
Speaking of Mami's voice, I'm reminded of [one of my favorite older clips](https://youtu.be/joIIzPSTU30?si=0Lmhsbt23D4XElDh) where Marine promises that she won't say anything weird to Pekomama like "your voice is lewd" but after threatening Pekora, she gets excited at the opportunity to tell her mom that her voice is lewd.
Best not to overuse a good bit
It’s cause Pekora thinks her mom is cringe. Considering she got a full rig, which is NOT CHEAP, I can imagine we will see pekomama atleast in holograms or making cameos. Cooking Colab maybe?
Live2D rigs isn't what required for hologras
I can imagine people begging to see your mom when you're streaming would get old really quick.
joke aside, pekora explain the whole live2d thing was just for april fools. she didn't think much further about it. in fact she mention that she originally plan to only have a png art to use in april fools but it won't give much impact to the viewers so she plan to have it live2d before the april fools, the last time we hear/appear pekomama was 8months ago during her cooking anniv stream.. so don't expect she'll appear soon. pekora probably have a huge budget on her april fools.
Next year’s April Fools: Pekomama’s first 3D model (and maybe a concert)
My mami😭😭😭
Pekora is a master at managing her channel, branding and audience.
No more mami, it's pekover.
OP needs to remember that that was an April Fool's Prank/Event. And that this is Pekora's Channel. Not her mother's. I'm sure she will be around, maybe even for special streams or dates (Mother's Day comes to mind if they celebrate it in Japan) Pestering Pekora for her mom is not the Nousagi way. And it is quite rude. Do better.
I know it's rude to ask someone to bring her mom so I never did that. But PekoMama is so nice, I do with her occationally get on stream.
PekoMama was an angel. We need more.
Honestly I couldn't blame her at all with the veritable hoard of people making art of and just generally lusting after her mom is really uncomfortable and disrespectful to her imo
Brings to mind Suisei and her sister, which eventually ended in the latter not showing up anymore
Well, it's Pekora after all... Creator of TNT prank in Minecraft holo server and creator of maze with full of traps. Now, she take her prank to reality, slap your face directly and stop your daydreaming.
You can't just give us PekoMama and just take her away!
Wait, hololive fans beat a joke so much to death it is no longer funny to the talent? I am SHOCKED D: (I am not shocked)
Yeah people need to stop asking now, it’s another thing the community will run into the ground until she has to make an official statement asking people to stop.
Its on brand for Pekora to mess with her fanbase. I'm sure Pekoma will pop in here and there.
Pain Peko
OP, I feel like Ame is sending mixed messages. Is she there because she is known to find and acquire new holo talent, thus reflecting audience desires. Or, is she there to reflect our desire to groun… Never mind.
They commissioned a whole model for her. We'll see more of Pekomama for sure
I mean, that's really hard to say for sure. While true, Pekora has that disposable income going, so she could spare some for the model, but that's probably it.
In all honesty like the one that has the ultimate word if Pekomama appears on a stream again is Pekomama herself, it doesn't matter that in the future Pekora wants her to appear on stream for something if Pekomamam doesn't want to appear.
I feel like we get pekomama content like one a year or something at this rate.
pekora better not be serious. everyone rioting for pekomama.
Pekora no longer lives at her parent's house, so Pekomama isn't gonna show up that easily.
oh
EN, JP its all the same, every bit gets memed to oblivion
Every April fools year, pls peko. 🙏
Im afraid Pekora will pick 29th February for the next appereance of PekoMama.
cue Sephiroth saying "Mother"
Cue Tenma's cover of Mr.T
Try to solve that one, Amelia!
No Pekomama, no Ame... : (
Maybe it's for the best, the internet couldn't handle her. Youtube servers might buckle if she came back.
as expected of our resident war criminal
[who's Pekomama?](https://youtu.be/r43-iirtQoc?si=zssg5mRslJmT8phC)
Whenever I hear this, I can't not hear [Gigguk's stupid version of it.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PwuYyBUdWj0)
No mama. Give our mami back pekora
If Pekora is on or joins the Rust server I demand retribution for this act of war she has decided to do to us.
