The visual shows Kaguya, Sakayori Iroha, and Tsukimi Yachiyo on a lit stage wearing the Amaterasu outfits from the "ray Cho Kaguya-hime! Version" music video. The performance streams simultaneously on YouTube and VRChat on December 26 at 21:00, and the YouTube archive begins right after the stream ends. Seven additional archive performances will run on VRChat through January, bringing the total to eight including the main show. The announcements came in the second episode of the information program "Tsukuyomi Thanksgiving INFO," where the three characters trade greetings: "Kaguyahhoo!" from Kaguya, "Iroppi!" from Iroha, and "Yaoyoroo!" from Yachiyo. The event recreates the film's virtual space Tsukuyomi as a VRChat world, and the tutorial area is already open for early access.
The VRChat world itself has been live since September 25 under the name "[Official] Virtual Space [Cho Kaguya-hime!]." The tutorial area replicates the one seen in the film and Tsukimi Yachiyo walks visitors through VRChat controls. An exhibition area for fan art and fan worlds, plus a central torii area, are planned as later additions.
"Cho Kaguya-hime!" is the first feature-length directorial work of Shimoyama Kiyotaka, animated by Studio Colorido with his Studio Chromato. Its in-film songs come from ryo (supercell), kz (livetune), 40mP, HoneyWorks, Aqu3ra, and yuigot. Cast includes Natsuyoshi Yuuko as Kaguya, Nagase Anna as Sakayori Iroha, and Hayami Saori as Tsukimi Yachiyo. The ending theme is the "ray Cho Kaguya-hime! Version" performed by Natsuyoshi and Hayami.
The film premiered on Netflix on January 22, 2026. A theatrical release followed on February 20 and ran about four months, drawing 1.34 million admissions and 2.7 billion yen in box office. Special-format revival screenings with MX4D, 4DX, SCREENX, ULTRA 4DX, and Dolby Atmos began September 18. Box office revenue has since passed 3.4 billion yen. The second episode of "Tsukuyomi Thanksgiving INFO" also includes the Yatcho's Tsukuyomi Rock-Paper-Scissors corner.
