This was not the finalized design, however, and an unspecified design change was made before Gura's debut. Gawr Gura's design was known to other members of holoEN as early as 2 July 2020, when Amelia Watson drew the first ever piece of Gawr Gura fanart. The members of -Myth- began training around June 2020, three months before their debut. Gura recalls being asked about the SCP Foundation, a wiki of articles describing fictional artifacts and beings, although she had to admit that she didn't know what it was. ĭuring her audition, Gura drew a cute character in a 'power stance' with their hands on their hips, which she credited as setting a good impression. The initial round of auditions ran until 24 May. On 23 April 2020, following the success of the Japanese-language hololive VTuber group, Cover Corporation announced auditions for English-speaking members. The lower lobe of Gura's caudal fin, the bottom part of her tail, has three bite marks, which she forgot the cause of.

The upper lobe of Gura's caudal fin, the top part of her tail, is sewn up with gray stitches because of a rock that fell on it while she was in a deep sea trench. She wields a sapphire-blue trident and has a cyan shark tail. She wears dark blue socks, white shoes with pale baby blue shoe tongues, black shoelaces, gray velcro patches on the vamps, and thick, black soles. She also wears a gray shirt under her hoodie.

She wears an oversized, dark cerulean-blue hoodie that fades into white on her arm sleeves and hem, two yellow strings in the shape of an 'x' that connect the front part of her white hoodie hood, a shark mouth designed on her hoodie waist with a zipper, gray hoodie drawstrings with two black circles on each of them, and two pockets on the left and right sides of her hoodie waist with white fish bone designs on them. She can wear a dark cerulean-blue hood in the shape of a shark's head.

She has cyan pupils, and sharp, shark-like teeth. She has white, light silver-like hair with baby blue and cobalt blue strands, along with short pigtails on either side of her head, tied with diamond-shaped, shark-faced hair ties. Gawr Gura is very short, reaching around 141 cm (4'7'). She also occasionally makes lewd jokes, and is familiar with modern meme culture, which she references often. When questioned on why she was not 'boing boing,' she excused it by claiming that she was 'hydrodynamic.' Her skill with fast-paced rhythm games is exceptional, and she is highly ambitious. However, despite her poor math and spelling skills, Gura is quick-witted, clever, and has vast knowledge of Shark Facts. She often forgets about perishable items until they start to rot, and eats baby food 'because you don't have to cook it. Memorably, one viewer declared that 'Gura has a heart of gold and a head of bone.'

She has no sense of direction, often misspells and mispronounces words, has trouble remembering her own age, and consistently fails to solve basic math problems, leading viewers to affectionately call her a 'dum shark'. Gura is friendly and readily likeable, and often amuses her viewers with foolish antics. In her spare time, she enjoys talking to marine life. Gura is a descendant of the Lost City of Atlantis, who swam to Earth while saying 'It's so boring down there LOLOLOL!' She bought her clothes (and her shark hat) in the human world and she really loves them.
