The “Virtual Idol” Suisei Hoshigai’s Momentum Continues to Grow!

Recently, virtual YouTubers, or “VTubers,” have been appearing not only on the Internet but also on terrestrial TV programs. Especially major groups are “Hololive” operated by Cover and “Nijisanji” by ANYCOLOR.

Among them, the activities of Suisei Hoshimachi, a member of Hololive as a “0th generation student,” are remarkable. Beyond the “live game” and “I tried singing” YouTube videos, she has appeared on numerous terrestrial TV programs and held real events, and her rapid progress continues unabated.

As his activities in the music field increased, “I felt uncomfortable calling myself a VTuber,” says Suisei Hoshimachi.

On the other hand, he also explained that he did not set himself as a “virtual singer” even though he had made a name for himself as a singer, “because I want to work on a variety of things, not only as an artist but also as a variety of other things.
