A celebratory video was also released, which you can watch below.
According to the press release, the celebrations include commemorative merchandise to be sold at special “fan appreciation” prices, on top of commemorative trucks portraying the project’s VTubers touring Tokyo, Nagoya, and Osaka starting on December 28.
