nijisanji
Nijisanji is a face-tracking app and VTuber group, managed by Anycolor Inc. (formerly named Ichikara Inc.). The company began activities in early 2018, originally as an app developer with no intention of management (legend saying that at one time management had fewer people than their talent, before Mito exploded in popularity and necessitated more staff). The project was helmed by CEO Tazumi Riku and then-COO Iwanaga Taiki, the latter having since departed from the company.
While the app has no release date, and early on wasn't even approved by Apple, it is actively used by Nijisanji Project, a group of official VTuberss referred to as "Virtual Livers".
Their characters are notably in 2D, instead of the initially more popular and established trend of 3D. This strategy was to minimize upfront investment and allow themselves a broader range of personalities. While some of the more popular characters do also have 3D models, 2D is still used for most appearances.
Many of the characters have alternate variations, such as alternate costumes, hairstyles, accessories like kemonomimi, or even aged up forms.
The official website offers a short profile for each character; however, the talent is given the freedom to develop their characters as they wish. As a result, few if any actually resemble their original profile.

虽然该应用程序没有发布日期,而且还没有得到苹果的批准,但它被Nijisanji Project积极使用,Nijisanji Project是一组被称为“虚拟肝脏”的官方VTUBERS。
他们的角色特别是2D,而不是最初更受欢迎和既定的3D趋势。该策略是最大程度地减少前期投资,并使自己拥有更广泛的个性。尽管一些更受欢迎的字符也确实具有3D模型,但2D仍用于大多数外观。
许多角色都具有替代变化,例如替代服装,发型,诸如Kemonomimi的配饰,甚至是老化的形式。
官方网站为每个角色提供了简短的个人资料;但是,才能自由地自由地发展自己的角色。结果,很少有实际类似于其原始个人资料。
最初根据首次亮相和合同性质进行分组,但是在2019年之后,这些区别被删除,所有成员都受到Nijisanji项目。此列表代表他们的起源。
首次亮相:2018年5月2日。一个专门从事视频游戏流媒体的小组,旨在弥合观众对虚拟YouTuber和专业游戏的差距。会员资格包括专业和随意的游戏玩家,但是活动仍然涉及传统的肝内容,例如聊天和唱歌视频。尽管该小组被视为单独的,但与小组以外的成员互动没有任何限制。截至2019年,纳入Nijisanji项目。
首次亮相:2018年6月3日。一个基于“具有小组活动潜力的挑战框架”的小组。它的成员被选为多样性,而不是经验或技巧。尽管该小组被视为单独的,但与小组以外的成员互动没有任何限制。截至2019年,纳入Nijisanji项目。
首次亮相:2018年6月8日。Nijisanji的第一个所有男性虚拟肝组。该小组在首次亮相的一周内退休后,该小组解散了,几个月后,其余成员被整合到种子中。
Nijisanji的印尼分支机构。他们与主要分支机构和其他分支机构有一点互动。 2022年4月15日,该分支合并为Nijisanji主要分支。
Nijisanji的印度分支机构,由于印度境内的营销失败,并试图鉴于对该品牌的国际兴趣越来越多,因此试图多样化,因此被称为英国分支机构。他们也与主要分支机构和其他分支机构有一点互动。该分支在2021年4月30日被“暂时暂停”,其成员于当天退休。
Nijisanji的韩国分支机构。他们还与主要分支机构和其他分支机构进行了一些互动。 2022年4月15日,该分支合并为Nijisanji主要分支。
Nijisanji的英语分支。他们与主要分支机构成员有很多互动。
Nijisanji的中国分支。这些成员中的大多数将其内容集中在中文平台上。
最初的分支机构,从2018年7月17日开始,从2018年8月24日开始。它由两个部分组成,一部分位于上海,另一个位于台北。到2019年3月底,Nijisanji上海已被弃用,并于3月29日停止使用“ Nijisanji”这个名字,共同将其名称更改为Vego。 Vego后来在2020年3月31日进行。
目前的中国分支机构与比利比利合作建立,从2019年4月19日开始,从2019年5月14日开始正式开始。
