Here's a random thing I found related to insect MMD's and stuff. Since this thread has been functioning as something of a general discussion I hope it's allowed.
I compiled an assortment of videos by an artist named 神木花 aka 神木と花 aka XOXOXO. It includes only what I've been able to find so far so it's not a complete collection, not even close.
The animation quality is average but other aspects of his work hit some of my likes so I regret I wasn't able to catch more of it when it was available. I like that model of Haku he uses and I find her outfits to be super hot too.
Here's a summary of how I found and collected these videos. Maybe some of this information will be of use if anyone wants to investigate further.
I encountered the user as either 神木花 or 神木と花 on Iwara, I first saw his works in suggestions displayed under other videos.
I bookmarked the user as something to check out later but of course I lost the bookmark in the meantime.
When I remembered it again I couldn't find anything on my own by searching — either the search function on Iwara is pretty bad or I'm a retard since I never seem to find what I'm looking for there. Anyway I came up with nothing back then and now it seems the vast majority of his works is either gone or private.
A couple of months ago I happened to find links to the artist's videos on

I don't speak Japanese and I'm not familiar with how that site works, posts there redirect to original submissions on Iwara. Some links to the works deleted or locked by the artist on Iwara remain on oreno3d, if you search there for 神木花, 神木と花 and XOXOXO you can check out things like video names, descriptions, tags and thumbnails.
Unfortunately both 神木花 and 神木と花 accounts on Iwara appear to be inaccessible. I suppose they're entirely privated and set to hidden or something. Some of the stuff however could be accessed from links on oreno3d or found on Iwara if searched by their exact name, or if they appear in suggestions. Unfortunately the few things I could find and grab this way are ~30 second clips of longer videos.
I also noticed a series of what appear to be the user's more recent works showing up in video suggestions on Iwara. At least I think these are somewhat newer than the ones I was usually on the lookout for, I could be wrong though.
The series is named "Vampire Diaries," an example is "Vampire Diaries_D_(强音加强).3K.1800" at

It's set to private of course but you can see more of his stuff displayed in recommendations, most of it is locked as well. I tried to look for these and other videos outside of Iwara but I was unable to find anything anywhere else.
I think the artist is Chinese since he left some sort of ID in descriptions of some videos, it appears to be related to some Chinese site. The ID is Q群:1026305963. I'm completely clueless when it comes to that part of the internet so I don't even know what it means and what to do with it.
Recently I randomly stumbled upon another account named XOXOXO at

and it looks like it was the same guy.
It seemed videos were being posted regularly by that user. I tried to download what I could as they were appearing but the author would delete or private most of them shrotly after submitting. I failed to get everything and at some point the activity stopped, and most of the stuff was deleted. The few files that remain are privated.
I zipped what little I managed to grab. Most of the file names are the same as the video titles as originally posted.
I suppose the artist could be active under another name again somewhere but so far I didn't find any new clues.
If anyone happens to find some more information or any way to get more of 神木花 / 神木と花 / XOXOXO stuff please let us know.
Here's the video pack:
