Tobariku Debuts Four Male VTubers With First Streams On September 26

MBS Innovation Drive and UpLand announced on September 24 that the four male VTubers of the project Tobariku will hold their first streams on September 26. The debut takes the form of a first stream relay, with the four members appearing in sequence, and a project PV was released on YouTube alongside the announcement. Debut commemorative goods were also announced. Two members who are about to make their first streams released messages ahead of the debut. Tobariku is jointly developed by MBS Innovation Drive and UpLand. The announcement came two days before the first streams are scheduled to run.
Debut commemorative goods were announced alongside the stream schedule, and a project PV went up on YouTube with the initial notice. The lineup runs four members, all male, under a project name written in kanji and read as Tobariku. MBS Innovation Drive and UpLand are credited as joint developers. Two of the four members issued messages before the first streams. The relay format means the four debuts are stacked into one day rather than spread across separate dates, which is the detail that separates this from a standard solo VTuber debut. The September 24 announcement gave two days of lead time before the September 26 streams.
