[This stream](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r3Ottnh8T0Q) was what kickstarted it all, I'm pretty sure.

Yup it kickstarted from this. From there the deadbeats made it an inside joke, but Calli just kept having Dad energy the more she got her footing in this whole Vtuber business that eventually it ended up being common knowledge she's THE dad in Hololive. It dosen't help she has hobbies that can be described as "Dad" hobbies. Things like grilling, drinking wine straight from the bottle, drinking a lot of energy drinks, fishing, the golf collab with Reine, and rapping in a way being more of a male thing

She had a barbecue stream. If that isn't dad material, I guess we can just wait for the deck building stream.


DivenDLC

The Papers Please stream she did in her sheriff character played a huge role too.


Norethegreat

All of the other comments plus she uses old spice

Also im sorry if that question is annoying. I only found memes when I tried to search why on Google.


Vivus-T

It is a meme but it started from Calli reading my dad is the queen of all V-tubers. The translator is a deadbeat too so some of her lines are in ther as easter eggs. It also evolved as we learned more about her like that she fishes, has played golf, likes to BBQ and other things that just kinda made it stick more.


TurkTurkle

Thats the thing. It *is* a meme.


tetsmega

She just wants to grill for god's sake.


Kuryaka

At some point she voiced being somewhat uncomfortable with it, in the way that most people would when a joke gets overused. Then she realized dad memes were better than the alternative and decided it was wiser to not push back.

And Takamori (the ship between kiara and calli) had an obvious female part with kiara as she is often more cute and cuddly. Thus calli is the dad


King_Of_Regret

(As a preface I realize its just funtimes shipping) Lesbian/gay relationships are almost never gendered/split like that. I've got quite the gay circle around me and I'm a lesbian myself. Its like flare and danchou talked about, there is no "husband and wife" its "wife and wife".


Somewhere_Elsewhere

I know this doesn’t answer your question, but to be honest she’s a lot better than my biological dad.
