Nijisanji, one of the most well-known Vtuber groups in Japan and operated by Ichikara Co., Ltd., has just announced that it is holding its first wave of auditions for English speaking countries.

Although Nijisanji IN (India) and some Vtubers from Nijisanji ID (Indonesia) regularly broadcast in English, it looks like Nijisanji is preparing a separate division with exclusively English-speaking Vtubers, perhaps the way rival Vtuber group Hololive did with Hololive EN

According to their Facebook page, they want to "welcome those who would like to challenge themselves in becoming the first generation of VTubers for the English speaking audience."
