Live2D Adds Kasukabe Tsumugi Model To Browser Editor Nizima ACTION!!

Live2D Inc. announced on September 10, 2026 that a Live2D model of Kasukabe Tsumugi, illustrated by Sakamoto Ahiru, is now available in the browser-based online video editor "nizima ACTION!! β version." The model includes more than 40 types of expressions and motions and can be used for free. It can be operated through tracking apps such as nizima LIVE and VTube Studio, and it supports hand tracking. The model also works with the text-to-speech system VOICEVOX, which was added to the editor in May, so text input, voice synthesis, and lip sync can be completed inside nizima ACTION!!. The same model is also being distributed free on KASUKABEproject's Booth. Use requires compliance with the character's terms of use and credit notation such as "VOICEVOX: Kasukabe Tsumugi." The editor is free for anyone with a nizima account. A desktop version and collaborative editing features are in development.

The model works through the "materials collection," where it sits as a sample alongside the Kasukabe Tsumugi Live2D that KASUKABEproject has distributed since before this release. The older model can also be loaded and moved in the same editor.

The editor itself supports keyframe operation and multi-track editing, and Live2D models can be loaded for editing or recorded live through a linked tracking app. Free materials ship with it for short videos, promotional videos, cover-song videos, VTuber videos, and portfolio reels for Live2D modelers.

Live2D describes the intended uses as meme videos and explanatory videos. The company's stated plans for the β version include a desktop build that launches offline and saves locally, plus work toward collaborative editing, drawing functions, and a way for users to distribute templates they make. Live2D says it will shape later versions around feedback from β users.

The official X account and YouTube channel carry news about nizima ACTION!! and its official character, Doro Okami Act. Live2D CEO Tetsuya Nakajo is named as representative director, and the company notes a business and capital alliance with Aniplex that includes a feature-length animated film production project.
