EchoVerse Adds Illustrator Kiseki Hiiro And Video Creator Iza Saraba
Daimaru Matsuzakaya Department Store announced that two creators will join its VTuber project EchoVerse, with streaming debuts set for October 2026. Illustrator Kiseki Hiiro streams first on October 4 at 20:00, and video creator Iza Saraba follows on October 17 at 20:00. Both were chosen through a second-round audition held in April 2026, which sought expressive people working from techniques in illustration, music, and video. Character design for Kiseki Hiiro comes from Kaomin and for Iza Saraba from Kuga Funa. Their Live2D models were produced by Kanbutsu Himono and Iron Vertex. EchoVerse's first-generation member Hanayori Yoruha debuted in September 2025 and released a first original song, Bansoukou, in June 2026. The two new members will each design a label for a sake crowdfunding project tied to that song, running from October 1 with all affiliated creators taking part.
