NIJISANJI



NIJISANJI (にじさんじ, stylized in uppercase) is an agency of primarily 2D Virtual YouTubers who are also known as "Virtual Livers" (バーチャルライバー Bācharu Raibā) when posting on sites outside of YouTube, such as NicoNico Douga, Twitch and Bilibili.

Managed by ANYCOLOR Inc. (known as Ichikara Inc. until 16 May 2021), NIJISANJI started in Japan in February 2018 as one of the first major VTuber agencies. Their focus on livestreams set its members apart from other early VTubers, such as Kizuna Ai or Kaguya Luna, who primarily made prerecorded videos. This, as well as the use of Live2D over expensive 3D, led to NIJISANJI's success in the Japanese market and codified the current VTuber format of Live2D streaming. Since 2019, the agency expanded to overseas markets including China, Indonesia, India, Korea and English speaking markets.

As of April 2022, there are a total of 207 members across three different branches: 140 NIJISANJI members, 20 NIJISANJI EN members, and 47 VirtuaReal Project members from VirtuaReal, a joint venture Chinese branch between Bilibili and ANYCOLOR. VirtuaReal also has 6 VirtuaReal Star and 20 VirtuaReal Link members, but these are independent VTubers partnered with VirtuaReal rather than main members.

The agency has 46 million subscribers on YouTube with 160 livers in the platform, making the it the second most subscribed agency, only behind hololive. VirtuaReal members stream primarily on Bilibili, so their numbers aren't counted for YouTube.

Kuzuha holds the highest subscribers count at over 1.2 million. The top 10 most subscribed Livers in NIJISANJI are Kuzuha, Kanae, Tsukino Mito, Hoshikawa Sara, Sasaki Saku, Honma Himawari, Vox Akuma, Ange Katrina, Lize Helesta and Kenmochi Toya.

Technology
NIJISANJI Livers usually stream with iPhoneX facial motion capture technology, Live2D models rigged in-house by ANYCOLOR, and the NIJISANJI app (commercially unavailable). This method is technically simpler and much less expensive than full-body 3D motion tracking equipment but the resulting motion is mostly limited to facial features, rotation of the head, and limited movement of the upper body. These models suffered from many stuttering and accuracy issues in the early days of NIJISANJI but less of these issues are seen today as their technology has improved.

After debuting, Livers are able to receive 2.0 and 3.0 brushups that allow them to expand their range of movement and make more facial expressions. 2.0 and 3.0 brushups are announced through Twitter and are distributed in batches at random times and to random members in a lottery system. Those with 3D models are also eligible to receive 3D brushups, which are also announced through Twitter. Updates of any kind are tagged with #にじあぷで on Twitter.

As of April 2022, 109 Livers from NIJISANJI's main branch have received 2.0 brushups and 51 have received 3.0 brushups. 13 Livers from NIJISANJI ID and 15 Livers from NIJISANJI KR have received 2.0 brushup, while since March 2022, 6 VirtuaReal members have received 3.0 and are the Livers from foreign branches to have received brushups.

In addition to Live2D and conventional full-body 3D motion capture, NIJISANJI also supports "Niji 3D" (にじ3D), which allows Livers to stream using their 3D models without a studio. The range of motion for Niji 3D is limited to the upper body and hand tracking.

As of April 2022, 86 Livers from NIJISANJI's main branch have received 3D models (including Livers who have used their models in events but haven't had their YouTube debut yet) and 7 have received 3D brushups. 8 Livers from VirtuaReal have received 3D models as well and are the only foreign branch to have received 3D models (not including members from VirtuaReal Link or Star).

On 13 December, Ichikara announced that both NIJISANJI Gamers and NIJISANJI SEEDs would be merged into the main NIJISANJI group at the end of the month.
