AttendMe Inc. has launched a talent audition for its new VTuber project “Strongest Witch VTuber.” The audition is seeking one VTuber who will perform around the concept of a “witch,” with applications open from 11:00 on Monday, June 15, 2026 to 13:00 on Tuesday, July 7, 2026. The character design is handled by popular illustrator MAIRO, and the successful applicant is slated to perform as a member of the VTuber production “Buipuro.”

A one-person-only audition that values “who you are”

Rather than a mass-recruitment drive, this audition is looking for just one person. A defining feature is that the selection prioritizes personality and individuality—qualities like “I want to watch this person’s streams again” or “something about them just draws you in”—rather than technique or track record alone.

The organizer welcomes not only polished performers but also people you can’t help cheering for, or those who have a certain appeal even when a little awkward. Even those with no streaming experience can apply as long as they have the will to take on the challenge, and the team says it places importance on meeting talent it can grow alongside.

Character design by popular illustrator MAIRO

The character design is created by MAIRO, an illustrator popular for a fantastical and delicate style. MAIRO has previously handled character designs for many popular VTubers, including “Yakumo Beni,” “Koinoya Mai,” “Sakuratori Mina,” “Kirishima Haru,” and “Kirishima Luna.”

This time the theme is the “witch.” While carrying a fantasy-like worldview, the project aims for activity in which not just strength and glamour but each talent’s weaknesses and quirks also become part of their charm.

Activity and support after passing (what’s ahead)

As a “Buipuro” talent, the successful applicant will begin their activity with wide-ranging support, including video-production assistance, SNS management support, planned-stream support, sponsored-project handling, goods and voice-work development, and corporate-promotion tie-ins. Because support is in place from the debut-preparation stage, even those without experience can start with peace of mind.

Operator AttendMe Inc. is also actively pursuing VTuber × real-world product initiatives, such as limited-goods rollouts through its online gacha service “Tapraize.” Going forward, it plans support that looks beyond streaming activity toward multiple areas, including PR projects and promotional campaigns.

Impressions and outlook

As the VTuber market expands and the scope of activity diversifies, this audition’s stance of recruiting just one person while valuing “personality” stands in striking contrast to mass-production-style debut support. Combining a support structure that accompanies talent from debut preparation through the start of activity with worldbuilding by a proven illustrator looks set to provide a foundation on which a new VTuber can keep performing for the long term. It will be worth watching for further news on just what kind of talent is chosen as the “Strongest Witch.”
