VirtuaReal (aka VR or 维阿) is a Virtual UP (VUP)[note 1] company created as a joint venture between bilibili and ANYCOLOR. It comprises three groups: VirtuaReal Project, VirtuaReal Star, and VirtuaReal Link. VirtuaReal Project is the main company, while the other two groups are partnership programs for independent VUPs. Due to this relationship, VirtuaReal members may stream with the NIJISANJI App, receive technical support from ANYCOLOR, and are occasionally invited to collaborations with members of NIJISANJI branches.

As of April 2024, there are 64 members across the three groups in total, 49 in VirtuaReal Project, 5 in VirtuaReal Star and 10 in VirtuaReal Link, mainly conducting activities on bilibili and Weibo. Hanser and Lingyuan yousa, one former and one current member of VirtuaReal Star respectively, are the first and second most subscribed VUPs worldwide respectively with over 3 million followers each. VirtuaReal members have over 12 million followers in total on bilibili and are the most popular corporate VUP group in China as of April 2024.[1]

Clip compilation[]

  • 虚拟主播高能放送 (Virtual Streamer Hyper Broadcast) - Weekly compilations of clips. Odd weeks are staff-selected, even weeks are fan-submitted.


Trivia[]

  • VirtuaReal refers to itself as a "虚拟艺人团体" (virtual t group).[note 9]
  • Unlike Livers in other NIJISANJI branches that require both a Youtube channel and Twitter account, Weibo accounts are not compulsory for VirtuaReal members.
  • As the VirtuaReal bilibili account is active in interacting with VirtuaReal Livers and appearing in their livestream chats, it has been personified with the nickname "VR哥" (VR-bro). The official Live2D mascot model was drawn by Karon and rigged by Tanoshiba. The NIJISANJI bilibili account, which similarly interacts with VR Livers, is personified as "彩虹哥" (Niji-bro).
  • The sixth gen is the first generation of VirtuaReal to receive an official announcement trailer, which would not be done again until the fourteenth gen. The sixth gen is also the only generation to be teased individually before they were announced with images of their silhouettes accompanied by a passage hinting at their character settings. Group silhouette teasers have been done consistently from 13th gen onward.
  • VirtuaReal has its own Minecraft server that is separate from the main NIJISANJI Minecraft server. It also has a second server for modded Minecraft. The main server has secrets added in with the use of command blocks e.g. naming a pig "时守星沙" (Tokimori Seisa) will teleport the player to a hidden area just above bedrock layer.[74]
  • VirtuaReal has three unused VUP avatars.[75]
  • The twentieth gen is the first generation to have two subunits: Intro (the male subunit) and Kismet (the female subunit).
    • It is also the first generation to have members suspended before they debuted (Garu and Kurau).
      • Coincidentally, both of their names end with the letter "U".

Administrative[]

  • The VirtuaReal headquarters are located in virtual Shanghai. Applicants who pass the second round of the audition process are invited for an in-person interview. Being located in China is not a requirement to be a member; quite a few VirtuaReal members live elsewhere.
  • VirtuaReal members are allowed to design and distribute their own merchandise, usually as rewards for their captains (i.e. members).
  • VirtuaReal members typically receive new outfits once they reach 30k fans (i.e. followers) on bilibili, and 3D models once they reach 100k.
  • VirtuaReal takes faces seriously. If a liver requests a change to their face in a new model, it will have be be taken as a serious change and is permanent, meaning the liver would not be able to go back. Livers who have made changes to their face include: Kero, Plus, Rhea, Tanoshiba, Tocci, Susam, Yog and Uka.

Notes[]

  1. "UP主" (lit. "UP Owner") is a term referring to content creators on bilibili. The term originated in NicoNico Douga, the spiritual predecessor of bilibili, and basically means "Uploader" Thus, a VUP is a content creator who uses a virtual avatar on bilibili.
  2. 2.0 2.1 Chinese wiki for Bandai Namco Shanghai Base
  3. Official website of the KāixīnMáhuā theater
  4. Chinese wiki for the Majestic Theater, Shanghai
  5. When referring to a generation, the shorthand "...73" or "...7" is sometimes used. This is because "73" is phonetically similar to 期生 (generation). So, for example, 873 sounds is a homonym of "eighth generation" and 127 is a homonym of "twelth gen".
  6. Possibly inspired by the eleventh generation, the expression "...天国" (... Paradise) is now being used as a naming convention in VirtuaReal for a group of members sharing some trait, e.g. 白毛天国 (White-haired Paradise) and 黄毛天国 (Blondie Paradise).
  7. Everyone except Chiharu and Kiyora have a swimsuits visual; Chiharu and Kiyora had only debut for one month at the time, so there was likely not enough time to commission swimsuit arts for them.
  8. VirtuaReal has not uploaded an official video for 七色回响 as of now.
  9. As seen in the profile of VirtuaReal and nearly every member's bilibili channel and Weibo account.
