Sony Music Entertainment's VTuber (virtual YouTuber) training and management project '

Mr. Watanabe Tusk will appear at the venue. A monitor was placed on the right side of Mr. Watanabe, and a guest VTuber appeared on stage from the virtual world.



The first person to take the stage was

Rira Kuroen .



Lila asked about what made her happy since VEE started. According to Watanabe, he was happy that people started asking him, 'Are you the boss?' VTubers are active on the internet, so they don't get to see the faces of the fans who support them directly, so when they come to events like Machi★Asobi, they stand on stage and talk, and they actually hear from fans. It seems that the number of cases has increased.



The next guest was

Kanra Daity .



Mr. Daity asked Mr. Watanabe about his past career. In fact, Mr. Watanabe is also known as a video creator who participated in the video production unit Nanpo Research Institute . Mr. Watanabe also produced the music video for Vocaloid P's Hachi ( Kenshi Yonezu )'s song ``Sand Planet''. Mr. Watanabe not only acted as an animator, but also handled the production process and editing.

We also talked about Hatsune Miku. For Watanabe, Hatsune Miku is a symbol of band members and music creators creating works on NicoNico Douga, and is also an interesting thing on the Internet, and she has been like an idol.



The next guest is

Kakapo Kitashirakawa , a science researcher VTuber who became a hot topic after announcing that she has a doctorate in science. We asked Mr. Watanabe what makes VEE unique compared to other agencies from a producer's perspective.



According to Mr. Watanabe, he was conscious that VEE is not a box or a group, but an office that can support the people who belong to it. As more and more people with various skills, talents, and personalities become active virtually, VEE's philosophy from the beginning has been to support such diverse human resources. On top of that, Mr. Watanabe declared that it remains to be seen how VEE will fare.



However, Mr. Watanabe thought with a laugh that he may have tried too hard to look cool, and the VEE booth set up at the Machi★Asobi venue had too much black cloth, making it a bit scary. Below is VEE's booth on the day.



In addition, Kakapo-san and Watanabe-san took on the challenge of cascading to commemorate the 1st anniversary of VEE's unit '

Dev-d '.

The question from Ringo Kujo , who is participating in Machi★Asobi for the first time in four years since joining before belonging to VEE, was asked at the '[VEE] 2023 Management Policy Briefing Session' distributed in June 2023. about.



This was apparently Watanabe's first appearance as a VEE producer on a live Internet broadcast.

Kujo mentioned that Watanabe was wearing lipstick at the time, and asked if she still wears lipstick. According to Watanabe, since the day will be live streamed, she requested to have her makeup done by a professional. Then, during the meeting, a makeup artist was immediately arranged and the makeup was applied by that person.



The last guest,

Ruki Onmon , asked Watanabe if anything had changed since he launched VEE other than getting a tattoo.



Mr. Watanabe cited ``becoming famous'' as the number one thing. It seems that there are people at Sony Music Entertainment who want to try something related to virtual things, including VTubers, and there seems to be a trend among those people to ``Let's talk to Watanabe first.'' Mr. Watanabe concluded with a reassuring comment, asking for advice on anything from love to work.
