This Valentine's, we wanted to bring together fans and VTubers for an event to share our love for this community (also, holiday-themed special outfits are cute!). While in the planning stage, we also wanted to have a parallel "White Day" event, both featuring art by Layuna to complement each other.

Since it was Friday the 13th, to sit the "Sweet Devil" theming the signature drink was Eternal Soul — orange-rose tea w/ peach + hibiscus syrup!
Take a peek at moments from the 2/13 concert with....

Namashashin
Nama-shashin (生写真) are collectable glossy idol bromides. These are the typical "L"-sized bromides that you'd see, so your V-Idol Cafe bromides can be collected in the same folder as your other ones! I've never seen these done in the "Raw Photo" style for vtubers before (though do let me know if you know of some!), so this new merch offering was what I was most excited about! While we gave the talents the background/assets, they all snapped their poses specially just for you!
Posters & Standees

During the collaboration period, you could see the posters and standees at Gamers Heaven Bay Area all across the windows! This time, we ended up auctioning off the posters to cover the cost of production, and we're really grateful that they found good homes!

Wanted to take home the standee?.. Well, if you're going to Offkai Expo, you're in luck as we'll be auctioning the V-Idol Vol. 2 & 3 Standees off there in July! Plus, you can visit them at our booth before to snap pics if you weren't able to make it to the event.
M&G

On 2/14, Valentine's Day itself, we had a special meet & greet with each of the talents where packages included a 3-minute m&g activity, a drink voucher, and a food-safe drink stirrer! This was our first time having the stirrers, and they turned out great~
There were so many special moments that stood out to us, lots of which you can see shared in our community discord or the #VIdolCafe tag. Here's one that especially warmed our hearts:
Someone brought their daughter to my meet and greet at yesterday’s event. She was a shy little princess, holding my plushie in her arms. I heard she likes chocolate, so when I pretended to feed her chocolate parfait virtually, she opened her mouth as wide as she could 😭😭😭

Neon Shrine's first stream, I'd say it went pretty well (and the crowd cam setup was especially neat, letting those who couldn't be there in person feel the energy!). Watch the full VOD on YouTube here:
