YuNi is an independent virtual singer running her own company, YuNi on BMC Inc., after leaving TOY'S FACTORY at the end of March 2026. She restarted cyAnos, cover uploads, member game streams, and a weekly YouTube singing stream, and is booked on the Shinkai Fest 2026 bill at Shibuya Stream Hall on October 17 and 18.
YuNi left her agency TOY'S FACTORY at the end of March 2026 and established her own company, YuNi on BMC Inc., on April 9, 2026, announcing both during a June 14 livestream on the eighth anniversary of her debut. She is the representative of the new company. The stated reason was to take on challenges she could not pursue under the previous agency, where budget constraints limited her activities.
The new setup restarted work that had stalled. The self-produced music unit cyAnos, inactive since December 2023, resumed. So did cover song video uploads, member-only game streams, and a weekly YouTube singing stream, with the first singing stream set for June 15 at 8:00 PM. A CAMPFIRE crowdfunding campaign for original song production and live events hit its 5 million yen target in about 20 minutes and passed 9 million yen as of writing. YuNi also announced a YuNi ONLINE LIVE for the end of October 2026.
Three months later she was named to the final batch of performers for Shinkai Fest 2026, subtitled Cho Shinkai, announced by ProjectBLUE on September 23, 2026. The event runs October 17 and 18 at Shibuya Stream Hall in Tokyo, with more than 100 artists across the two days. Day 1 on October 17 puts Fuji Aoi, Hoshikuzu Plane, and Moemi on the Grand Stage, and the full schedule and stage assignments followed the lineup reveal.
