There were various exhibits at the EXPO, but the new merchandise created a lot of buzz on social media. How did you feel when you saw attendees\u2019 reactions online?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>When we announced on X that there may be information on new merchandise, I was worried that we might not get the kind of excitement we were hoping for, so I was honestly relieved when I saw the number of reactions we received. I didn\u2019t really expect a queue for our booth, so I was astonished! Many people seemed to enjoy the exclusive voice recordings from the talents, so all the preparation we did felt worth it in the end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Q. Please tell us your thoughts about the exhibits and the difficulties you had to overcome.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>To tell you the truth, claw machines are not suited for merchandise displays. We had to coordinate with many people to put merchandise that was not claw machine prizes into these machines\u2026\u2026! However, I was thrilled that many fans were discussing the new merchandise online along with photos of our booth. It felt like we could work with fans to hype up expectations and excitement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Together with the merchandise we showcased, we work hard on developments to keep up with our fanbase, which has grown exponentially over the years. We want to continue using the data we have collected up until now to create merchandise that truly appeals to our fans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%E2%91%A1holo_Indie_hololive_Official_Game\"><\/span>\u2461holo Indie &amp; hololive Official Game<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/dkgy1yki8xgbd.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07806-1-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1612\" srcset=\"https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07806-1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07806-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07806-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07806-1-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07806-1-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>At holo Indie &amp; hololive Official Game, hololive-related games were exhibited in two sections.

To get such high praise despite there being so many wonderful exhibitions and experiences to be had made all the time and effort we spent on this booth even more worth it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Q. Which game was particularly popular? We\u2019d love to hear what the response from creators was like.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The playtesting of games played by talents on stream, such as Treasure Mountain, holo8, and holoRun was especially popular. Many people also tried out yet-to-be-released titles, like MYRIAD DEATH and Chrono Gear: Warden of Time. It was also a fantastic opportunity for people who do not play computer games much to learn more about holo Indie games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Creators have also expressed their gratitude for being given this excellent opportunity for fans of hololive to try out their games. holo Indie is supported by the innovative work of these creators, so I hope that we can generate more interest in our games among attendees through events like these.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/dkgy1yki8xgbd.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07823-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1615\" srcset=\"https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07823-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07823-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07823-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07823-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07823-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%E2%91%A2HOLOLIVE_ALTERNATIVE\"><\/span>\u2462HOLOLIVE ALTERNATIVE<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/dkgy1yki8xgbd.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07866-3-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1617\" srcset=\"https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07866-3-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07866-3-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07866-3-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07866-3-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07866-3-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The booth for the media-mix project HOLOLIVE ALTERNATIVE was an immersive space featuring a series of stunning pieces of artwork.

Please tell us more about the booth&#8217;s concept and themes, and any incidents or plans that left an impression on you.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>We wanted to create a fresh way for people to learn about HOLOLIVE ALTERNATIVE, so we built a booth with an immersive atmosphere. The live drawings from the manga artists were perfected over time, making it something that people could enjoy no matter how often they returned to check on the progress, so I would consider that a success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cEven though it was all a first for me, I think I was able to draw a great piece of artwork without any major slip-ups, thanks to the passion of the holoListeners (viewers of hololive) pulling me through. I had so much fun and am thankful for the opportunity to attend EXPO and be a part of such a wonderful experience,\u201d said Kurose Kousuke, author of Yamato Phantasia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Q. Please tell us more about any future developments.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>In the manga, Underworld Academy Overload!!, a new chapter has started with the appearance of Hakoz Baelz, and Volume 3 of Yamato Phantasia and Volume 1 of Vesta de Cooking were released on May 7th!

Fans could challenge themselves to try and get a higher score than what the talents recorded, in games like Hammer Free Fall and holoWars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/dkgy1yki8xgbd.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07421-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1622\" srcset=\"https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07421-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07421-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07421-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07421-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07421-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/dkgy1yki8xgbd.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07498-3-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1623\" srcset=\"https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07498-3-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07498-3-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07498-3-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07498-3-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07498-3-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Q. Please give us an insight into the effort that went into making these games, and what difficulties you encountered.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>We paid extra attention to making the talents\u2019 presence as realistic as possible to provide an experience where players were essentially \u201cplaying with the talents.\u201d This became the booth at this EXPO that had the most input from talents because we had to meticulously create videos and voice recordings for it. Talents also put their ideas into the games and had fun testing them before the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The most challenging part was the safety measures. As games required the swinging of hammers and shooting balls in the pachinko game, we had to consider the safety of those playing and the people around them. We prepared hammers of three different weights, placed safety nets around the booths, and stationed staff all around the booths to ensure proper surveillance. I was really relieved that everyone had fun without any accidents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Q. Was there anything that left an impression on you?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>As the day wore on, people waiting in line started to cheer on those playing the games and applaud them when they did well. Those heartwarming interactions among fans left a rather deep impression on me. It was truly a sight to see how battered the pedestals used for the games became from everyone putting in their all (lol). I believe that fans were able to create some really fond memories and have so much fun that they left their mark on the pedestals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%E2%91%A4HOLOSTARS_Battle_Street\"><\/span>\u2464HOLOSTARS Battle Street<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/dkgy1yki8xgbd.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07637-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1624\" srcset=\"https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07637-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07637-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07637-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07637-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07637-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The concept of HOLOSTARS Battle Street was based on watching a fight in a back alley, with a street art-style design inspired by fighting games. Shows started as early as 10 AM, with each show being broadcast live and featuring the talents of HOLOSTARS singing and gaming. Enthusiastic fans were spotted grabbing the best spots in the middle at the front of the viewing area just 10 minutes after doors opened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/dkgy1yki8xgbd.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/YR5_9353-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1626\" srcset=\"https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/YR5_9353-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/YR5_9353-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/YR5_9353-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/YR5_9353-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/YR5_9353-2048x1366.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/dkgy1yki8xgbd.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07743-1-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1625\" srcset=\"https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07743-1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07743-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07743-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07743-1-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07743-1-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Q. Please tell us about any incidents or fans that left an impression on you.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>It would be hard to go past the fans who came to our booth first thing in the morning, eagerly anticipating the shows, some with their handmade happis to support their oshis. Cosplayers visited the booth in all versions of their favorite talents, coming in not just their regular outfits, but exclusive outfits that only featured in seasonal voice packs and events, the latest Starry outfit, and even EXPO2025 outfits. There were even cosplayers with outfits from voice packs that were only announced just weeks prior!<br>It was also amazing to see the interaction between overseas and Japanese HOLOSTARS fans, who were exchanging illustrations and confectionery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Q. &nbsp;Please tell us what you had to pay the most attention to for this EXPO.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>We made sure that the talents appearing throughout the program did something game battle-related to suit the name of the booth! They not only hosted games among themselves but also got the help of fans using the camera to complete a game together for instance, so that viewers could truly play a part in the games. We put extra effort into making content that made it easy for people who did not know HOLOSTARS to remember the traits of each member.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%E2%91%A5Magical_Girl_holoWitches\"><\/span>\u2465Magical Girl holoWitches!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/dkgy1yki8xgbd.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07322-1-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1627\" srcset=\"https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07322-1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07322-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07322-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07322-1-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DSA07322-1-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>At the Magical Girl holoWitches! booth, a range of mirror maze-style exhibits, and voice recordings from talents made for an extra magical experience.

Please tell us about any incidents or visitors that left an impression on you.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Many fans came decked out in merchandise and cosplay based on the series, their passion clearly on show, while others carried bags decorated neatly with the badges (called itabags) of their oshi holoWitches, which they lined up for taking photos for social media. There were also those who took the opportunity to get holoWitches cosplayers together: the booth serving as a positive space for the community to interact, which was so rewarding to see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Q. Why did you want to use printed stickers for the booth? Please share any stories related to this project if you can.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>We had the idea of printed stickers as we thought that they could become a piece of memorabilia that visitors could take home from the experience. In the festival-like atmosphere of the EXPO, there were so many fans who put so much effort into their outfits and brought along their own merchandise, so it was the perfect souvenir for fans to take home as a reminder of their wonderful time spent at the photo booth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We put a lot of effort into designing the holoWitches-themed printed stickers, and used scripts that were recorded specially by the talents for the photo booth. Everything was carefully configured and designed just for EXPO2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-vivid-cyan-blue-background-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/en\/list\/1756\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Read Part 2 here (Booths 7-12)\u00a0<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-vivid-green-cyan-background-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/coveredge.cover-corp.com\/en\/list\/1909\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Read Part 3 here (Attendee Interviews)\u00a0<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An Immersive Experience Like No Other at the hololive ARCADE This year\u2019s hololive SUPER EXPO (hereinafter \u2018EXPO\u2019) was the fourth time the event has been held.
