Hololive’s Hoshigai Suisei will be taking on his first MC on NHK’s terrestrial music program! Hokken Marine and others also perform limited performance
Welcome back to the I Am Anime website
NHK will be hosting “virtual idol Hoshigai Suisei” as the MCVenue101 Presents VTuber Special” will be broadcast from 11pm on Saturday, March 22nd.
“Venue 101” is a music program that NHK airs every Saturday at 11pm, with the artists performing live performances. The program name “Venue101” refers to the NHK studio “101 Studio”, which is currently being recorded.
On this program, Hoshigai Suisei, a virtual idol affiliated with the VTuber group Hololive, appeared as the MC on her birthday. This is my first attempt at MC on a terrestrial music program. I’ve received a video message from him.
Hokken Marine, Mori Calliope and Kobo Kanaeru will also appear, with a total of four members delivering their hit songs. They will also be performing an original studio performance of this program. Information about the song and comments will be announced on the official X (formerly Twitter) at a later date.
We will also be bringing the program to the talk guest, including Oishi Masayoshi, Daoko, who loves VTubers, and Yoshimura of Heisei Nobushikobushi, a beginner VTuber. It looks like it will be a 30-minute session for VTuber fans to not miss.
■Message from Hoshigai Suisei
“I’m curious about VTubers!” or “I want to know more about VTubers!” This is a special feature that will help people like you to get to know VTubers more and get hooked on them!
The drawings I talk to at NHK Studio are sure to give you a sense of a new era!
I talked with the guests a lot to share the charm of VTubers.
A must-see special performance exclusively for this day by the super popular VTubers!
There’s also a special project to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the broadcast…! ?
「Venue101 Presents VTuber Special” is scheduled to be broadcast on NHK General TV from 11:00pm to 11:30pm on Saturday, March 22, 2025. For details, please check the NHK program page.
