Karaoke Manekineko to Host XR VTuber Meet-and-Talk Event on November 7
A karaoke chain is renting out its private rooms as XR venues for one-on-one VTuber conversation and cheki photos, which treats the room itself, not the stage, as the product fans pay for.

Koshidaka will hold "Ukafes!" at Karaoke Manekineko Shibuya Main Store on Saturday, November 7, 2026, with technical cooperation from PANDORA and Sony. Six VTubers appear: Hatsunami Puuru, Suzunami Hitode, and Tamanami Uruma from MARINA LYRICA, plus Nijitenbi Koron, Yohaku Suiu, and Mana Naru from Jinrui Uka Keikaku. Tickets are 3,300 yen per 20-minute slot, advance reservation required.
A standard private karaoke room is the venue. The VTubers appear inside it through XR, with expressions and gestures reflected in real time, so the session is built around being in the same room rather than watching a stream.
Each slot runs 20 minutes and is sold separately, at 3,300 yen including tax, with advance reservation through the special site. Ordering a drink may trigger a "magic" effect during the session. At the end, attendees can take two-shot cheki photos with the VTuber.
