In the past couple of years, VTubing has continued to grow as an inventive and influential form of entertainment. With major collaborations and sold-out concert halls slowly starting to crop up here in the U.S., hololive has been one of the spearheads of this rise in popularity. At Anime NYC, Anime News Network spoke to Motoaki Tanigo (YAGOO), CEO of COVER Corporation, the company behind the hololive production VTuber agency, and Max Sung Yoon Kim, the head of COVER USA Sales. They were accompanied by Moeko Tamano, the head of International Business Development, and Daniar Kisaragi, the international PR team community manager, who both provided translations for the interview. Tanigo and Max Kim offered insight into how they hope to expand their presence in the United States.
