The team handled 104 cases between November 1, 2025 and October 30, 2026, covering defamation, privacy and copyright infringement, death threats, trolling, and impersonation. A settlement of 1.4 million yen was reached over rights infringement against liver Shirayuki Tomoe. The company also acted against a store that hired an impersonator using the name of liver Ienaga Mugi to draw customers.
Shirayuki Tomoe and Ienaga Mugi are the two livers named in the report. For Tomoe, a sender disclosure request on an anonymous message board identified the posters, and a settlement was reached under terms recognizing an obligation to pay 1.4 million yen in total damages. For Mugi, the company took measures against a store that hired a person impersonating the liver and used wording suggesting customers could meet her.
Reports to platform operators covered accounts infringing livers' honor and privacy on services such as X. In more malicious cases ANYCOLOR worked with outside law firms, filed sender disclosure requests with providers, and pursued liability in both civil and criminal terms. Trolling aimed at obstructing livers' activity on YouTube was pursued as infringement of business rights, and deletion requests went out for unauthorized reprints and clipped videos that break company guidelines.
