- About Me - 

------- [--video transcript--] -------

Wakana (V.O):
"For as long as I can remember, I’ve wanted one thing... peace. A place where I could belong. Where the battles between humans and demons didn’t define who I was. But the world wasn’t made for someone like me…"

The scene transitions to a flashback of young Wakana walking through a village. She receives hostile glares from humans, then another scene with demons whispering as she passes.

Wakana (V.O.):
"Born to a human father and a demon mother, I was a reminder to both worlds of every single thing they hated. Not just about themselves but more so about each other. To the humans, I was a monster in human skin. To the demons... I was a weak, half-breed that didn't deserve the power or the pride of their kind."

Cut to Wakana standing in front of a human school, watching children play from afar, her face shadowed by rejection. Then cut to her wandering through a demon city, with demons sneering at her mixed blood.

Wakana (V.O.):
"I wasn't enough for either side... too human for the demons, too demonic for the humans. I thought, if I could show them my heart, my passion for helping others, maybe they would see past my blood and how I looked. Maybe they would accept me. But no matter how hard I tried… no matter how much i tried to give… it was never enough. But despite the world's hatred, my family was different. They loved me. We didn’t care about where we came from or what others thought. In our home, there was peace... There was love."

Scenes of her family playing games, her mother teaching her magic, her father reading her bedtime stories. The family’s warmth contrasts with the coldness of the outside world.

Wakana (V.O.):
"Yet even our love became a target. A mixed family was something the world despised. We were judged for my parents daring to love across the divide, for my parents wanting to raise a child in a happy and loved home, regardless of whether I was both human and demon. But to us... We were just a family. Nothing more, nothing less. I grew up hearing the whispers, the sneers, the endless taunts. A monster. A mistake. Neither human nor demon. The older I got, the louder and worse these voices became. They didn’t care what they said to my face anymore or what I heard them say. The sad truth was that no matter how much my family loved me... I couldn’t drown them out."

Wakana is shown trying to help others in both human and demon communities. In one scene, she offers food to a hungry human child, only to be pushed away. In another, she tries to join a demon school of magic, only to be scorned for her human blood.

Wakana (V.O.):
"No one cared about my heart, my kindness, or that I was a child just like the rest of them. To them, I would always be a symbol of the war, of their hatred for one another. Just some object to throw their guilt, pain, and hatred on. I wasn’t even a living being to them."

The visuals grow darker as Wakana sits alone in her room, hands gripping her head, the shadows of both human and demon scorn surrounding her.

Wakana (V.O.):
"It became overwhelming. The world was suffocating me. No matter how much I tried to bring peace, I was drowning in their judgment, their hatred, their… unforgivable actions… until I found something that changed everything... something different. A place where no one could see what or who I was. Where I could be anything or anyone I ever wanted to be. It was the internet. A whole world, one that didn’t care if I had horns or human skin."

The scene shifts to her setting up a streaming account. She hesitates at first, the uncertainty clear in her expression.

Wakana (V.O.):
"At first, I didn’t know what to expect. I created an alternate version of myself, a version that wasn’t broken, that didn’t carry the scars of my past, that was fully human rather than a misfit to both worlds. I wanted to create a place where people could be happy. Where they wouldn’t care about my blood, but about what I could offer them—kindness, joy, laughter. A place where they, themselves could escape just like me."

Cut to Wakana’s first streams—clumsy, nervous. But as she continues, we see her slowly gaining confidence.

Wakana (V.O.):
"I was terrified at first. Afraid that they would reject me, just like the world had. But something amazing happened... they didn’t. People started to watch, to smile, to laugh. They didn’t care where I came from. They cared about who I was, and the joy I could bring. But it wasn’t easy. Streaming became an escape, but also a reminder of the hardships I faced. There were still moments of doubt, days when I wondered if I could make a difference. Hateful voices found me even there, telling me I wasn’t good enough and that I should quit. I was cringy. Never knowing if I'll be able to survive because I may not get a paycheck that month for food was rough itself."

Cut to Wakana staring at the ‘End Stream’ button, fingers trembling. The music quiets, a moment of stillness.

Wakana (V.O.):
"There were so many times I wanted to give up. So many times I almost did…"

Cut to Wakana having multiple breakdowns, getting sick from overworking, and losing her purpose.

Wakana (V.O.):
"From the trolls with my most viral stream never to be met again in over 2 years, having multiple personal breakdowns because I couldn't help but care for those around me and what they said, working myself past the breaking point for little result or income to even eat a meal. Even working through 3 rounds of COVID just so I could find some purpose and better reach in what I was doing… until I lost my sight… my goal… my purpose. Not until I watched some of my old videos. The fun I had, but more importantly… It wasn’t just about me. It was about them. The people who found joy in my streams, the ones who laughed, who smiled. They were my reason. For every one person that tried to tear me down, there were ten others I could lift. And that... that was everything."

Scenes show Wakana streaming, interacting with her community, her smile now genuine and full of hope.

Wakana (V.O.):
"Little by little, I realized that I wasn’t alone. My purpose wasn’t to fix the world’s hate. It was to create a small corner of peace, a place where happiness could grow, where people could come to escape just like I had. So now... I’m here. Not just as a cambion, not just as someone rejected by both worlds. But as someone who believes in the power of joy, in the beauty of bringing happiness to others. No matter how hard it gets, I’ll keep going. For you. For all of us."

Her smile softens, and she reaches out as if to invite the viewer in.

Wakana (spoken, warmly):
"We may not have control over the world outside, but here... we can make our peace, together. I will continue this fight to make a place of peace, however small or big it may get in the years to come. The question is, will you join me for the ride?"
