AttendMe Inc. and GameWith Inc. jointly held the VTuber event “NTE Strongest Live Parade,” set in Hotta Studio’s hyper-real urban open-world RPG “NTE: Neverness to Everness.” A total of 200 VTubers took part, building momentum that pushed cumulative views past 1.7 million.

What is the “NTE Strongest Live Parade”?

The event was a large-scale project in which 200 VTubers competed on city contribution points. According to the official event site, the game’s appeal was broadcast through roughly 1,350 streams and about 180 short videos, with cumulative views topping 1.7 million.

Participating VTubers earned points across a variety of categories – “app downloads,” “in-game hunter level,” “number of posts on X,” “stream views” and more – waging fierce competition to climb the rankings.

The five top-ranked VTubers

The event, which opened on April 29, closed on May 12, with Yukisaki Yuuka claiming a splendid victory. Hoshizono Yui placed second, Ayame Run third, Nekomaru Kiriya fourth, and Yoizuki Shino fifth.

The winner, Yukisaki, receives 250,000 yen in Amazon gift cards along with a limited-edition goods set for “NTE: Neverness to Everness.”

Streams that showcased each VTuber’s individuality

Yukisaki started the game completely blind and stacked up long-form streams branded “Hooked-on-NTE Life,” conveying the game’s appeal head-on with a heartfelt “It’s fun, sponsorship aside!” Runner-up Hoshizono played through a wealth of content in single sessions exceeding 5-10 hours, surpassing 10,000 channel subscribers during the period.

Third-place Ayame showed off overwhelming stamina with single sessions of over 10 hours; fourth-place Nekomaru combined energetic morning, evening and night streams with a curiosity for city exploration; and fifth-place Yoizuki demonstrated remarkable range by switching between participatory projects and ASMR – each sharing rich time with their fans.

“NTE” going forward and creator activity

Among the top finishers, some VTubers have continued as official “NTE” creators after the event. The game’s deep volume of content appears to keep streamers engaged over the long term.

Organizer AttendMe is a company partnered with more than 3,000 VTubers, running a marketing business that leverages their reach on social media. Further VTuber-linked projects of this kind are expected going forward.

Impressions and outlook

By involving 200 VTubers and generating a figure of 1.7 million cumulative views, this event reaffirmed how well game titles and the VTuber community pair together. Designing streaming motivation through a points system, and seeing top finishers grow into official creators, makes for a fine example of fan acquisition that does not end as a one-off. A framework letting both major and individual VTubers join corporate projects may well become the industry standard going forward.
