Its in those little mistakes, she says, that the beauty of reality lies.
“I remember thinking at the moment I was searching, I was thinking I can try it.
Her screen name, Hakumai, comes from the Japanese word for white rice.

It was born out of her love for Kanji and just stuck.
At the age of seven, a teacher suggested she join one of the country’s private musical schools.
It was there she found a passion, eventually, for piano.
She had more modern tastes.
I started looking up…all these video games and all these anime I never heard.
That beauty of music would be exactly what shed replicate years later in her streams.
She saw a hole in the scene and thought to herself that she could fill it.
Imperfect musicians who dont play by ear.
She was searching for someone she could relate to, but couldnt find any.
So, the now-streamer decided to be her own muse.
“Nobody was there.
“I realized I am the person I am searching for.”
Three years later, shes streaming full-time to a set schedule, recreating melodies to a crowd of thousands.
She chooses to not talk much or interact with chat outside of taking requests.
She prides herself on being able to play, essentially, anything.
As long as theres sheet music to accompany it.
“My community has to be the nicest because they dont mind when I mess up.
They say they like it,” she laughs.
“Sometimes, Twitch music feels like family.
you might go from one stream to another and see some familiar faces all over.”
The future is uncertain, but Hakumai is okay with that.
Shes the white rice of the Twitch music scene: reliable, steady, and part essential.
No commitments, no anticipation, just vibes!
