... that Chinese cosplayer Liyuu is also an anime musician? Source: multiple
- ALT1:... that Chinese cosplayer Liyuu has performed theme songs for anime series? Source: Same as ALT0
- ALT2:... that Chinese cosplayer and musician Liyuu's interest in cosplay was inspired by the character Yui Hirasawa from the anime K-On!? Source: [1], [2]

Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Josefina Guerrero
Comment: Preference is for either ALT0 or ALT1; ALT2 is only suggested in case they don't work out, and in any case ALT2 may need to be reworded to avoid multiple uses of the word "cosplay".

Her name[edit]

Is "Liyuu" her actual real / birth name ?

If not, what is it and why isn't it part of the article ?

Just curious. 2600:8800:785:9400:C23F:D5FF:FEC4:D51D (talk) 02:13, 13 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Her real name is never revealed. Liyuu is her current stage name.

黎狱 or 黎狱Ritsuki was her stage name that she used in cosplaying events in high school. It was never used after these events.

狱 means "prison" or "jail" in Chinese, which is very unlikely to be the given name of a girl. This character came from 獄寺隼人(ごくでらはやと Gokudera Hayato) from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reborn!.

Later the stage name was changed to Liyuu, which sounds same as 黎狱 in Chinese.

Chinese fans often call her 鲤鱼 (carp), also sounds like Liyuu. --Deepseer wiki (talk) 09:55, 16 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
