Virtual Private Tutoring Service RalU Undergoes Renewal Following Joint Venture with C4 Media Inc.

Fevlis (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; Representative: Takashi Ota), operator of the virtual private tutoring service "RalU," is pleased to announce a joint venture with C4 Media Inc. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo; Representative: Hirohide Urata).

C4 Media Inc. is the parent company of Unibirth Production Inc., which develops local VTuber businesses in collaboration with broadcasting stations nationwide.

Through this joint venture, we aim to create new value in the education sector by leveraging C4 Media Inc.'s business development experience in the VTuber domain, while also implementing a comprehensive refresh of the entire service.

■ Background of the Joint Venture

In recent years, while the spread of online education has expanded learning opportunities, "learning continuity" and "maintaining learning motivation" have become crucial themes. Especially in learning guidance, how to elicit self-motivated learning is a factor that determines learning outcomes.

"RalU" has previously worked to lower psychological barriers to learning by utilizing VTuber models in education.

In this joint venture, we aim to realize an educational model where the appeal of VTubers naturally connects to learning motivation, allowing "oshi-katsu" (fan activities) and "learning" to naturally overlap.

■ Details of the Joint Venture

In this joint venture, we will promote service development that combines the strengths of both companies, leveraging C4 Media Inc.'s expertise in VTuber business development.

Specifically, by connecting the positive emotions generated through relationships with VTuber tutors to learning motivation, we will encourage behavioral changes such as:

• Reducing psychological barriers to learning

• Increasing active participation in classes

• Promoting self-initiated learning behaviors

• Establishing study habits

This will transform the approach to learning from passive to proactive.

■ Service Renewal
