Vannamelon

Hey, you melon heads and fruity goodness!

Vannamelon, is an American gaming, impressionist and animation YouTuber known for her gaming videos portraying parodies of various cartoon characters such as Yuri from Doki Doki Literature Club or Isabelle from Animal Crossing. She has a watermelon mascot that appears throughout her social media that is also featured in her Halloween series.Vanna's main channel grew to spotlight upon uploading her "Fluttershy Plays" series, where she parodies the character Fluttershy from the My Little Pony franchise while playing various of popular video games all on improv. Her first video Fluttershy plays Five Nights at Freddy's was uploaded on November 8 2014 and as of of 2020, has garnered up to 6 million views.She has introduced various of fictional characters into her channel, such as Isabelle from Animal Crossing, Yuri and Monika from Doki Doki Literature Club and Bowsette. To combat with YouTube's COPPA guidelines, Vanna created a new mature parody of her original Fluttershy named Flutterchan on December 1, 2019.On July 16, 2020, Vanna released a video celebrating her 1 Million subscriber milestone. In the 30 minute video, it featured her new and old characters reflecting back on many of her gameplays and the channel's history.Currently, her channel is going through a storyline of Monika deleting some of the cast thanks to PS5-Chan's manipulation to get rid of Isabelle. So far, Yuri and Flutterchan have been deleted (albeit Flutterchan was by accident as Monika intended to delete Fluttershy) and Bowsette is implied to be missing (possibly by PS5-Chan), as shown in the previous channel banner. While Flutterchan has supposedly been brought back with a new Vtuber style, it is also heavily implied that it's just a construct by Monika, likely to appease the fans and Fluttershy. However, likely due to Vanna's more strained schedule and personal life, this storyline has been taking much longer than previous storylines, at about a year, to the point where it even seems to have taken a break during mid-2022. It's also implied Vanna simply didn't want to use Bowsette anymore, likely because she is a dead meme and issues with YouTube's guidelines.Another thing that Vannamelon is mostly known for is her "Lemon Takeover Series" that stars her original fruity characters. Since October 2016, Vanna would introduce the character Mini Lemon (or Vannalemon), a lemon clone counterpart to her melon mascot. Throughout October Vanna would release subtle and mysterious videos to allow her audience to create theories and clues to the lore. Their first song, Spooky Mini Lemon, was released October 31 2016 and has gained up to 600k views. According to her Genius page discussing the song, Vanna explains that the creation of Mini Lemon and the October series was originally a throwaway joke and she never anticipated for it to gain an interest to her audience.
