Gakken (Gakken Group) has released the ‘Even Sakura Miko Can Understand‘ series, a collaboration with hololive VTuber Sakura Miko, on August 6, 2026. All four subjects launched simultaneously: Junior High English Vocabulary, Math, Kanji + Vocabulary, and Geography + Prefectures, priced at ¥1,980 (tax included) each.

Study Guide Features — Original Illustrations and Stream-Inspired Examples

All volumes are A5 modified size, full-color, and packed with original Sakura Miko illustrations. The example sentences draw on phrases related to game streaming and content creation, allowing fans to study while immersed in their favorite creator’s world. Fun exchanges with her mascot companion 35P (Mikopi) and a bonus booklet titled ‘Miko Study Notebook’ are included in every volume. Digital editions are also available.

Subject Highlights

‘Even Sakura Miko Can Understand: Junior High English Vocabulary‘ lets readers learn words through phrases tied to streaming culture. ‘Even Sakura Miko Can Understand: Junior High Math‘ starts from elementary-level arithmetic, making it accessible even for those who struggle with the subject. ‘Even Sakura Miko Can Understand: Junior High Kanji + Vocabulary’ features over 700 example sentences, all themed around Sakura Miko. ‘Even Sakura Miko Can Understand: Junior High Geography + Prefectures’ includes original ‘Local Miko’ illustrations for all 47 prefectures, letting readers enjoy learning about each region’s unique characteristics.

Future Prospects

Sakura Miko boasts over 2.4 million YouTube subscribers (as of August 6, 2026), making her one of the most popular VTubers in the industry.

As an example of leveraging VTuber influence in the educational space, this initiative is worth watching closely.
