The community aims to gather productions and independent creators under a single city-like framework, enabling cross-group collaborations. Two existing vivion-operated VTuber groups are rebranding to fit the new setting: Vebop Project becomes Bebop High School, and Goraku becomes Goraku-gumi. Independent VTuber Nora Juino has also joined as a partner creator, receiving support from vivion for her individual activities while continuing to operate independently. Alongside the announcement, vivion opened an official YouTube channel and X account for VHS City, which will begin posting official clip compilations and original content starting June 2. Vivion business manager Yusuke Ubara said the community aims to bring together expressions that have not met before, creating new entertainment that enriches users' daily lives.","whyItMatters":"VHS City represents vivion's attempt to consolidate its scattered VTuber operations under a single shared world view, potentially lowering barriers for cross-group collaborations while also bringing in independent creators like Nora Juino without requiring them to sign as exclusive members.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe rebranding of Vebop Project to Bebop High School is intended to make viewers feel more familiar by using the same \"high school\" framework as Aogiri High School, according to KAI-YOU.
