Location Description
ONICHA-themed corner props — strong in meme lobbies, rotate after round one.
Why It Works
ONICHA Corner on HIKAKIN Museum works because onicha-themed corner props — strong in meme lobbies, rotate after round one. Guide rating 72/100 — difficulty tier from AUTOMATON, not live match statistics. Published guides (AUTOMATON — HIKAKIN Museum) emphasize pose discipline: Flat wall blends on portrait rows; crouch prop-mimic at Misokin / ONICHA displays. Map context from HIKAKIN Museum: Photo-wall mimics need frame + print dual sampling — white mat borders expose elbows. Color plan: Torso base samples Primary surface at ONICHA Corner (F → paint menu, Space eyedropper); Shadow side samples Nearby shadow or darker patch at lock position; Limb / head edges samples Surface adjacent to limbs at lock height. Guide rating 72/100 reflects difficulty tier from AUTOMATON — a curated estimate from published walkthroughs, not aggregated match statistics. The core advantage is silhouette breaking: seekers scan for human-shaped lumps and value mismatches before they analyze hue. ONICHA Corner gives you clutter, depth, or verticality that buys time when paint and pose are locked in prep.
Best Colors
TheGamer, IGN, and mecchachameleongame.wiki all recommend the in-game Eyedropper (Space) on the exact surface you touch — not fixed hex/RGB codes. Lighting and patches change effective values; the table below lists which surface to sample per body part and how to apply it.
- Torso base: Primary surface at ONICHA Corner (F → paint menu, Space eyedropper) — Photo-wall prints and frames need dual samples; glass cases punish high metallic.
- Shadow side: Nearby shadow or darker patch at lock position — HSV Value one step down — never sample a similar surface across the room
- Limb / head edges: Surface adjacent to limbs at lock height — 360° white-gap check before prep ends (SlashSkill #1 day-one mistake)
When To Use
- When this applies: Collaboration maps default OFF in v2.7.0 random lottery — enable in settings if hosting.
- When this applies: v2.7.0 fixed deep wall-stuck — prefer surface blends over geometry abuse.
- Casual or content lobbies where entertainment value matters — still sample local color or the joke fails
When NOT To Use
- When seekers in your lobby already slow-check this zone twice in one session — rotate
Pro Tips
ONICHA-themed corner props — meme lobbies check this early; use as rotation, not forever camp.

Color & Paint Plan
Body-part breakdown from published guides — sample with in-game Eyedropper (F → Space), then fine-tune HSV / metallic / roughness per surface.
| Body part | Sample from | Technique |
|---|---|---|
| Torso base | Primary surface at ONICHA Corner (F → paint menu, Space eyedropper) | Photo-wall prints and frames need dual samples; glass cases punish high metallic. |
| Shadow side | Nearby shadow or darker patch at lock position | HSV Value one step down — never sample a similar surface across the room |
| Limb / head edges | Surface adjacent to limbs at lock height | 360° white-gap check before prep ends (SlashSkill #1 day-one mistake) |
Pose
Flat wall blends on portrait rows; crouch prop-mimic at Misokin / ONICHA displays.
Metallic & roughness
- · Match metallic / roughness to surface (SlashSkill: sheen mismatch exposes faster than hue error)
- · Matte wall → low metallic; metal pipe/barrel → medium–high metallic
Common Mistakes
- Overacting the prop mimic — exaggerated poses read as player movement
- Copying meme spots without sampling the joke prop's exact local color
- Laughing on voice chat while seekers are in the same room
- Staying visible from side angles where the disguise only works head-on
