NanaRika debuted as VTubers on December 9, 2019. They became a part of the MAHA5 first generation together with Andi Adinata and Alia Adelia. They have been an integral part of MAHA5’s early journey, as well as known for their dedication and skill in gaming, especially through their Mobile Legends gameplay, which has created countless memorable moments for the community.
The agency expressed their deepest appreciation for their contributions as one of the pioneers and wished them the very best after graduation. The agency also thanked all the loyal fans who have supported the talents and the agency over the years. MAHA5 also asked fans not to contact NanaRika directly to ask more about the graduation.
In addition, the graduation stream will take place on January 12, 2025, on their YouTube channel. After the final stream, all of NanaRika’s social media, including their YouTube channel will be closed as a part of their graduation process.
