──Thank you very much for joining us! It was a long-awaited interview as KAI-YOU! First of all, I would like to ask regarding the collaboration that leads to Miko Sakura’s origins. From May, “Holo Live Kanda Festival 2023” has been held at Atre Akihabara in conjunction with the Kanda Festival, one of Japan’s three major festivals.
Original collaboration goods sales using illustrations drawn by “Holo Live Kanda Festival 2023”, exterior wrapping, interior decoration, and in-store broadcasting of original songs are being held at Atre Akihabara until May 21 (Sun).
Miko SakuraWell, I am very grateful to be able to collaborate once more…!
Kanda Myojin has a lot of people, including overseas 35P (= Miko Sakura’s fan name), who come to visit us like a pilgrimage to a sacred place. Mio-chan (= Ogami Mio-san) and Ayame-tan (= Hyakki Ayame-san) collaborated on “Kanda Myojin/Jinja Ale”, and they often say, “I went shopping!”
In that way, it has become an important place for 35P, so I am very happy to be involved in the Kanda Festival.
──Kanda Myojin is the place Sakuramiko-san visited right following her debut in August 2018, right? The situation is captured in the ending of the self-introduction video directed, starred, produced, directed, and produced by Miko Sakura herself.
Miko SakuraI still remember that time very well,it was really hard! I wasn’t used to being photographed yet, so on that day I had to face the camera no matter what.
But isn’t it strange to look at the camera all the time (laughs)? So, when I tried to sweep the broom without worrying regarding the camera as much as possible, the movement was also messed up (laughs). It’s fresh, isn’t it?
In fact, I re-shot the scene where I bowed twice, clapped once, and bowed twice so that I might show it beautifully.
──Why did you decide to shoot at Kanda Myojin in the first place?
Miko SakuraMr. Kanda Myojin is near Akihabara, and he is the owner of Love Live! Because it was a sacred place for anime that has been collaborated with such as “I wonder if “VTuber” like myself will be accepted“Because I thought that.
So I asked, “Can I take a picture?” In that sense, it is one of the memorable places for me.
── So it was one of the places that accepted Miko Sakura in the beginning.
Miko SakuraAt that time, Miko was unknown and unknown (laughs). When I shot that video, I dreamed that someday I’d be able to collaborate with Kanda Myojin and get votive plaques and lucky charms. is.
Besides, the fact that VTubers can be used in such places isIt is also said that “VTuber” became popular with everyone’s supportSo I am very grateful.
