The Service includes not only the website, metaverse, and mobile application operated by the Company, but also the Discord server operated by the Company.

1.4 Entrants shall take part in the Service and the Event in accordance with these Terms and any additional terms the Company may separately establish, whether on or off this website (collectively, "Individual Terms"). Where these Terms and any Individual Terms conflict, the Individual Terms prevail.
1.5 Where the content of recruitment guidelines, entry information, the website, announcements, or other materials the Company publishes regarding the Event (collectively, "Public Materials") conflicts with these Terms, these Terms prevail.
1.6 These Terms may be prepared in a Japanese version and an English version. Where there is any discrepancy between the language versions, the Japanese version prevails.
2.1 The Service is provided and operated by the Company for VTubers entering the Event ("Participants") and other users, through the Company's website for the Service (the "Website") and applications (including Discord, the metaverse, and mobile applications; the "Application").

Digital Certificates may be sold by the Company through a purchase page on the Service (the "Purchase Page").
3.2 In addition to serving as a user's memory of having supported a Participant "at that time, in that place," a Digital Certificate may provide the following functions.

3.7 No returns — Digital Certificates are digital goods; returns, exchanges, and cancellations are not accepted once provided.
3.8 Treatment of refunds — If a refund or chargeback (a forced refund through a card company or similar) occurs with respect to a Digital Certificate, the vote associated with that Digital Certificate (its count or value) may become void and may be excluded from the Event tally set out in Section 6. Eligibility to enter the VIP fan room based on that Digital Certificate may also be lost.
3.9 The Company gives no guarantee whatsoever of appreciation, retained asset value, or any other economic benefit with respect to Digital Certificates. Do not purchase Digital Certificates for speculative purposes. In principle, they are programmed to be non-resellable, and resale is also prohibited under these Terms.

6.1 Entrants shall submit to the Company an image they wish to attach to the Digital Certificate (the "Motif Image"). The Company may establish requirements for the Motif Image through the Service. If an Entrant does not submit a Motif Image, the Entrant will not be able to receive the license fee set out in these Terms.
7.1 Entrants shall declare in advance, by a method the Company designates, the streaming slots to be used in finalist selection during the Event (the "Streaming Slots"). These slots are planned to be two per Entrant, with a maximum length of four hours each, but the Company may change this at its discretion.
7.2 Entrants shall not engage in the following conduct in streams related to the Event.

9.1 From August 13 to August 20, 2026, or another period the Company separately designates (the "Qualifying Period"), the Company plans to measure the following selection metrics. Based on these, the Company will, at its discretion, select six Entrants as candidates for the winner set out in the next section ("Finalists"). Where multiple Entrants tie on a given metric, or where no Entrant satisfies a given metric, that metric may go unused or the number of Finalists may fall below six, and the Company has discretion to determine this.
(1) Digital Certificate sales value (2 Finalists)
Among Entrants, the two with the highest total sales value received by the Company from Digital Certificates sold during the Qualifying Period will, in principle, be named Finalists.
(2) Growth in Super Chat (1 Finalist)
The Entrant with the largest value obtained by dividing the Super Chat amount in their later Streaming Slot by the Super Chat amount in their earlier Streaming Slot will, in principle, be named a Finalist. However, if the Super Chat amount in the earlier Streaming Slot is zero, that Entrant will not be selected as a Finalist (unless the Company separately decides otherwise). In measuring Super Chat amounts, the Company may use a method of its choosing, including measurement via the YouTube API, and Entrants shall raise no objection to this.
(3) Fan-club participation and posting rate relative to viewers (2 Finalists)
The Entrant with the largest value obtained by dividing the following numerator by the denominator will, in principle, be named a Finalist.
Numerator = the number of accounts that joined the channel relating to that Entrant on the Company's Discord server via that Entrant's invite link and posted at least once in that channel during the Qualifying Period
Denominator = a value the Company determines as the average concurrent viewer count across the Entrant's two Streaming Slots
(4) Continuity within the fan club (1 Finalist)
Among those counted in the numerator of item (3) above, the proportion who posted (in the channel relating to that Entrant on the Discord server) on two or more separate days during the Qualifying Period (meaning that, using Japan time or another time zone the Company separately designates for a country or region, two or more posts fall on different calendar dates).
9.5 Authenticity filter — In calculating items (3) and (4) above, the Company will assess authenticity based on factors including the following, and will exclude from the calculation any account or post that does not satisfy this assessment.
(1) Time elapsed since account creation
(2) Detection of duplicate posts with identical or similar wording
(3) Whether there is a link via the invite link
(4) Rapid, consecutive posting within a short period
(5) Any other criteria the Company establishes
9.6 The number of Finalists and the number of places per metric are provisional and may be adjusted according to the number of entries and other circumstances.
9.7 The Company bears no obligation to publish scores, rankings, or other figures relating to the Event. However, the Company may publish such figures at its discretion.
9.8 No objections to the results of selection will be accepted.
10.1 The winner will be determined, from among the Finalists, by judge John Oetjen or another person the Company separately designates ("John"). John will determine the winner while respecting the number of Digital Certificates purchased by August 23, 2026, or another date the Company separately designates, in the Event. Note that if a Finalist has not obtained, by August 22, 2026 (or another date the Company determines at its discretion), permission from the rights holder(s) of their 2D avatar for it to be turned into a 3D avatar, that Finalist may not become the winner (even if the number of Digital Certificates purchased for them was greater than for other Finalists).
10.2 Entrants may invite users to purchase Digital Certificates. However, offering any consideration in violation of law or public order and morals (including the provision or offer of money, goods, services, benefits, or other advantages) is grounds for disqualification.
10.3 In the Event, judge John previously served as an officer (Vice President) of the Company and remains an advisor. Entrants acknowledge this and confirm they have no objection before taking part in the Event.
11.1 Misconduct — If an Entrant or a person connected to an Entrant engages in the following conduct, the Company may take any measure it judges necessary at its discretion, including excluding the relevant score, excluding the relevant stream from measurement, disqualification, or withdrawal of entry.
(1) Use of bots or other automated means
(2) Purchase of Digital Certificates by the Entrant or a person connected to the Entrant (self-purchase)
(3) False statements
(4) Breach of the representations and warranties or other breach of these Terms
(5) Any other conduct the Company judges to be misconduct, including conduct that compromises dignity
11.2 Where the Company receives a report from a user or other third party, it bears no obligation to disclose the content of the report, nor any obligation to respond to or review it.
12.1 Entrants are expected to receive a digital certificate bearing John's signature. Finalists are also expected to receive a message from John, and the winner is expected to receive John's critique. Note that the signature on the certificate and the message will be digital rather than handwritten.
12.2 Commemorative badge — The Company will digitally issue a commemorative badge to Entrants who have been added to selection. The commemorative badge will share a common design.
12.3 (1) The Company plans to send the winner a 3D model avatar ("3D Avatar") produced with reference to the winner's 2D avatar (the "Winner's 2D Avatar"). Copyright, moral rights, and other intellectual property rights in the 3D Avatar remain with the Company, but the Company grants the winner a license to use the 3D Avatar in YouTube streams. However, if the winner uses the 3D Avatar in a form that violates law or public order and morals, the Company may terminate that license and demand that the winner cease using the 3D Avatar.
(2) Notwithstanding the preceding item or any other provision of these Terms, if the Entrant is unable to obtain, from every rights holder of the Winner's 2D Avatar used, permission for each matter the Company separately specifies (including production, use, and merchandising of the 3D Avatar), the Entrant will not be able to receive the 3D Avatar. Such permission must be evidenced by a consent form in a format the Company designates or approves, and a copy must also be submitted to the Company. If the rights holder of the 2D Avatar demands payment of a license fee or similar in connection with such permission, that cost shall be borne by the Entrant. If such permission cannot be obtained, the Company may instead send the Entrant a 2D digital good or digital item the Company determines at its discretion, in place of the 3D Avatar.
(3) The Company does not promise the winner that the 3D Avatar will resemble the Winner's 2D Avatar. The winner also agrees in advance that the 3D Avatar may wear clothing different from the Winner's 2D Avatar. The Company plans to propose to the winner a type of clothing for the 3D Avatar (which may include pajamas, a school uniform, or another type that may be proposed). The Company bears no obligation to accommodate a winner's request for a different type of clothing than proposed. Even if the 3D Avatar does not match the wishes or requests of the winner or the rights holder(s) of the Winner's 2D Avatar, the Company bears no responsibility and no obligation to make revisions to the 3D Avatar.
12.4 The Company has complete discretion in all cases regarding the specification, production timing, and process of prizes. If John or his production team becomes unable, for a reasonable cause including health reasons, to produce a prize relating to the Event, that prize may be cancelled. In that case, the Company bears no responsibility for the cancellation.
12.5 Prizes may not be transferred to a third party or exchanged for cash.
13.1 Where a Digital Certificate relating to an Entrant is sold, the Entrant may receive, as a license fee ("License Fee") for the use of the copyright, right of publicity, and other intellectual property rights described in these Terms, 70% of the amount remaining after deducting from the sales value any payments to third parties for credit-card processing or other settlement fees, and any consumption tax or other public levies arising from these. However, if the License Fee is below the greater of 1,000 yen or the applicable bank or other transfer fee, the Company bears no obligation to pay the License Fee. The payment due date and method shall be as separately determined by the Company. Remittance fees relating to payment shall be borne by the Entrant.
13.2 Where documents required under a tax treaty, such as a Form W-8BEN, or other documents required by law or for tax purposes exist in connection with payment of the License Fee, the Company will make payment only where such documents have been submitted. If documents are not submitted by the date the Company designates, payment may not be received, or treaty benefits may not be available.
13.3 If a refund, chargeback, or similar event occurs with respect to a Digital Certificate, no License Fee will accrue for that Digital Certificate, and if already paid, it will be deducted from the next payment.
14.1 Entrants grant the Company, free of charge, permission to make the following uses in connection with the Event. Entrants license copyright, right of publicity, and right to one's image to the extent above, and shall not exercise moral rights, in connection with these uses.
(1) Use, in announcing, operating, reporting on, and publicizing the Event (including introducing results after the Event has ended), of the Entrant's activity name, avatar image, Motif Image, stream screenshots, recorded stream footage, and results in the Event
(2) Display, on signage at the Company's metaverse venue, of the content of Digital Certificates (purchaser name, support message, serial number) and information relating to the Entrant
(3) Display within the Service of an Entrant's social-media content (which may, but need not, take the form of an embed within the Service)
(4) Advertising for the Service and the Event that shows the Entrant's activity name and images
15.1 The Company plans to open a category (sometimes called a "Fan Club") for each Entrant within the Discord server the Company manages. The Company may open and operate this server and Fan Club (including its channels). The Company may also open and operate an Entrant's fan community outside of Discord, including on websites or in the metaverse (including, but not limited to, fan.anifie.com and the Company's applications). However, an Entrant may withdraw upon giving written or electronic notice to the Company.
15.2 Access to the Fan Club is expected to be limited as follows.
(1) During the Event — accessible via invite links the Company issues

16.2 Users and Entrants grant the Company, without time limitation, a royalty-free and unlimited license to reproduction rights, rights of public transmission, and other copyright and intellectual property rights in User Content they post within the Service, and shall not exercise moral rights. The Company's license also includes the right for the Company to sublicense the relevant copyright in User Content to third parties, for consideration or free of charge. The Company may use User Content free of charge without notice to Entrants or users, and may modify its content as necessary. For the avoidance of doubt, this license also includes permission for commercial use.
16.3 Users and Entrants understand that a support message or other User Content attached to a Digital Certificate may be displayed on the image of the Digital Certificate, at the Company's metaverse venue, on the Company's Discord server, elsewhere in the Service, and on other websites. The Company does not guarantee that User Content will be displayed.
17.1 Intellectual property rights in images, video, trademarks, logos, text, programs, and the like related to the Service belong to the Company or to a third party (including Participants) that has licensed them to the Company, and no permission is granted to users or Entrants beyond conduct expressly permitted in these Terms. For example, except where approved by the Company (including, where a third party holds rights in the relevant information, obtaining that third party's approval through the Company), users and Entrants may not reproduce, transmit, publish, sell, or otherwise use any information obtained through use of the Service, nor cause a third party to do so.
18.1 The following uses of artificial intelligence may occur in connection with the Service. For the avoidance of doubt, these are permitted under these Terms (including, but not limited to, Section 16).
(1) Chat, messages, and other behavioral data may be stored on servers, on a blockchain, or elsewhere, and analyzed with artificial intelligence.
(2) This data and AI analysis may be used for purposes including increasing community engagement and the sales or profit derived from it.
(3) Insights obtained from this data and AI analysis may be used for other purposes.
19.1 If an Entrant withdraws from the Event after applying, they are excluded from selection, and no new right to receive the License Fee will arise after withdrawal.
19.2 If a technical failure occurs in an Entrant's stream or in the Company's measurement, the Company may, within the Qualifying Period, permit the Entrant a new Streaming Slot. In that case, a score from the new slot may be used as a remedy in place of the score for the stream that could not be measured, and the Entrant shall raise no objection to this. However, if a new stream cannot be carried out within the Qualifying Period due to such a failure, the stream's score may go unmeasured, and the Entrant shall raise no objection to this.
19.3 Allocation of responsibility — With respect to the failure described in the preceding paragraph: (i) where it is attributable to the Company's facilities or systems, the Company shall provide the remedy in the preceding paragraph; (ii) where it is attributable to the Entrant's equipment, connection, or operation, it is the Entrant's responsibility; and (iii) where it is attributable to a natural disaster, a failure of a telecommunications carrier or platform operator, or other force majeure, neither the Company nor the Entrant is responsible. In any case, the Company bears no responsibility beyond the remedy described in the preceding paragraph.
19.4 Postponement, cancellation, or specification change of the Event — Where there is unavoidable cause, the Company may postpone, cancel, or change the specification of all or part of the Event.
The Company does not guarantee that web content and the like provided in connection with the Service are free of computer viruses or other harmful elements.

The Company bears no responsibility for any direct or indirect damage arising to an Entrant from such a change, suspension, or discontinuation. Even where such a digital asset (including an NFT) is lost, the Company bears no obligation to supply or reissue that digital asset.
