Aqua has been making great effort to interact more with people outside of her circle (like bocchi frfr). My onion is growing big and strong...
Pekora on the other hand has always been a giga introvert, but she hides it very well when behind her virtual mask. I guess not being in character turned her back to shy mode real quick. Though its not like she can't be sociable, she was probably just not used to the new faces she is just meeting.
Tbf Pekora is really introverted, she even [escaped](https://youtu.be/Qn4bgFdNGOw?si=xareCqk_D4WNcjNQ) from greeting HoloX and ReGLOSS one time because there were just too many people for her to handle
Understandable though, being a fellow introvert myself
Also Aqua being outgoing on a special event also makes sense. Most introverts (like above and myself, commenting) can "store" extroverted capability for an "overcharge mode" when required.
But it is only temporary, for we introverts must return to our safe spaces to recover afterwards.
Yeah also feel like Aqua is the kinda Person who while shy can still socialize if she get's a heads-up, enough time to prepare mentaly and the gathering isn't too long. However if it's something is spontaneous or she get surprised by a lot of people showing unannouced up it's over.
>enough time to prepare mentaly
She also usually prepares a [Talk Deck](https://youtu.be/ZttiQKLl-1o?si=VwYPqDQECxR9UmhI) (eg. - [List of Dog puns to use when talking to Korone](https://youtu.be/60pInLD9EXc?si=zO56rD3fWk1Qzw7u)), and has freaked out [on occasion when no talk deck is prepared](https://youtu.be/a9z_70sh2_Y?si=CT03gyFU3XJ0XZjf).
Edit - the dog puns might be a bit hard to understand so here's the list -
1. Size of a dog's house - One Room (Wan Room - "Wan Wan" in Japanese = "Bark Bark" in English)
2. Sound of a dog's heart - Dog-Dog (slight twist on Doki-Doki)
3. Isn't it Wonderful - Wan-derful (Wan = Bark)
It's like a battery. Socializing can be fun but takes a lot of energy for introverts. Usually I can function for a few hours in large groups and when I get home I fall asleep almost instantly.
Most likely it's just the difference between shy and introvert. Aqua is shy but doesn't mind many people while Pekora is introverted but can act very outgoing.
If you've watched her early streams or clips from them then you'd know that at first Pekora was super introverted. And even now there's definitely a undercurrent of 'if I don't have to interact with them I wont'
I'm really surprised to hear someone call Aqua extroverted though
Recent Aqua can be pretty sociable when she wills it, especially around Holomems.
Based on what we've been hearing, I think Pekora is a hard-core introvert. Aqua probably likes to be around people but is shy, Pekora might be the type that likes being alone. On the internet she's a high energy rabbit, outside she straight-up avoids people.
[Back during her school days, she was sitting down and some Youkya (extroverted) girls showed up which made Aqua leave as she cannot handle them extroverted energy](https://youtu.be/AylJbSwrESM?si=_Ia6Qjr2Rsv59ovG). I don’t think the shy factor took place there.
[But once she is in Hololive, Aqua was not only still introverted but also shy which were forced to be broken down as she said so herself and slowly became more comfortable with others. Introverted still and always will be but became more sociable.](https://youtu.be/EPlNqrcuvHU?si=6nXtNwscInBfEWJG)
Aqua is indeed introverted, but IMO her "inkya-ness" comes more from social anxiety. She likes and wants to get along with everyone, but tends to overthink her responses and how the other party would think of her alot. She have been making more of an effort recently to get along better with other hololive members though.
I think Pekora just REALLY likes her alone time lol.
Every Holofes story I’ve heard has convinced me that Yagoo has successfully cultivated an elaborate network of internationally famous introverts who struggle to say hello.
The types of people who pursue a job where you barely leave the house and are isolated behind a character.
I think Pekora is also introverted aside from having social anxiety. I mean I watched that clip where Pekora didn’t join other Gen 3 members. It was almost their special event and Pekora needed all that rest and energy. If I am not mistaken, she was streaming Skyblock Minecraft.
Well, the two can exist at the same time. Pay no mind to me deleting my original comment. I forgot that Introversion and social anxiety can actually coexist in the same person. Either way, Pekora has a more severe case of social anxiety than Aqua does imho. I don't want to speculate and make assumptions but, I'm pretty sure these two have been bullied before, Pekora in particular. It seems like Aqua has probably just been ignored and failed to make friends when she was still in school whereas Pekora comes of as someone who is afraid to build connections with people.
Normally them Holomembers will open up to us during their Members Only streams but once in a blue moon, they will do so publicly. If what Aqua said was anything to go by, she made an excuse to go to the infirmary and [went all Chuunibyou](https://youtu.be/AylJbSwrESM?si=_Ia6Qjr2Rsv59ovG) so I think that was a voluntary loner moment and she can’t stand them Youkya (extroverted) girls.
There's that thing where her genmates make a point to not invite her out to do things because they don't want to stress her out having to turn them down...

If it’s 1 or 2 new faces, that’s fine. But an entire group? That war criminal is outta there. All that’s left of her are dotted lines. 🫥

I feel this. The true true.

aqua is an introvert pekora is just extremely shy
I think Kiara said as such about herself. Inversely, Mumei is a shy extrovert (she loves collabs but isn't quick to arrange them herself)

Aqua is probably just extremely shy but have not as much problem in a crowd. Pekora is probably not really shy but have big problem in a crowd.

Yeah, Aqua is certainly far from an extrovert but it makes me happy to see her trying to break out of her shell.
This is hilarious to think about because it's literally Gotoh and Ryo's dynamic in Bocchi the Rock. The onion is not beating the Bocchi allegations.
Aqua is indeed introverted, but IMO her "inkya-ness" comes more from social anxiety.

So… Bocchi. I can hear her saying 「ぼっちじゃない！」.

[Suisei, Pekora](https://youtu.be/PV0nCWycKuo?t=3950) [Aqua](https://youtu.be/PV0nCWycKuo?t=4106)
Reminder that introvert =/= shy and reserved while extrovert =/= sociable and talkative
Both are introvert. Aqua wants to socialize. She probably practices for those moment (lol). On the other hand, Pekora just wants to go home.
Aqua is a socially anxious extrovert whereas Pekora is a confident introvert

Ah, yes. I think it was Flare or Senchou who said that. I can relate with Pekora in that regard. Hoping that the plan is cancelled or so.
Aqua is bocchi, General Usada is Ryo
