Chance to Star as a Voice Actor in an Original Work by TapNovel and Seiyu Grand Prix! Announcing "Super Deluxe Tie-up with 'Seiyu Grand Prix'! Voice Actor Appearance in an Original Visual Novel Work"

17LIVE Inc. (Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Jean-Honhui; URL: https://jp.17.live/), which operates Japan's largest live streaming app "17LIVE," has announced that it will hold an audition event, "'Super Deluxe Tie-up with 'Seiyu Grand Prix'! Voice Actor Appearance in an Original Visual Novel Work," starting from April 1, 2026 (Wednesday), to select streamers who will perform as voice actors in an original work distributed on the official YouTube channel of the illustrated web novel service "TapNovel" and the super-popular voice actor magazine "Seiyu Grand Prix."

At "17LIVE," we hold various collaboration projects and events daily with the hope that both current streamers (live broadcasters) and those who have not yet started live streaming can enjoy it.

Following the great success of the collaboration audition event with "Seiyu Grand Prix," held up to its third installment from 2021 to 2023, we have decided to hold a powered-up audition event. This new event adds a voice acting role in an original visual novel work by "TapNovel" and "Seiyu Grand Prix," with the hope of further expanding the range of activities for aspiring voice actor streamers on 17LIVE.

"'Super Deluxe Tie-up with 'Seiyu Grand Prix'! Voice Actor Appearance in an Original Visual Novel Work" is an in-app event open to all active 17LIVE streamers, including V-Livers (streamers who broadcast as virtual avatars) and those who do not show their faces, such as those in costumes. A total of four streamers who rank high in the event and are selected through an audition will be able to perform as voice actors in the original visual novel work distributed on "TapNovel" and the "Seiyu Grand Prix Official YouTube." Furthermore, the top-ranking participants will have a character illustration created based on their own visual, and will perform with that illustration. Even if they are not selected for a voice acting role, the top 10 participants will be featured on the official website of "Seiyu Grand Prix."

Please pay attention to this powered-up collaboration audition event with a super-popular voice actor magazine, featuring opportunities like voice acting in an original work and magazine appearances.
