◼︎ Virtual Girl Nem Joins Ugo-Chara
The official 3D model of 'Virtual Girl Nem,' the world's oldest independent VTuber, has been officially released in May 2026 on the 3D model short video maker 'Ugo-Chara.' This app is a 'character animation app' that allows users to freely animate their favorite characters and produce/share short videos on social media using just a smartphone, without the need for specialized software or a PC. It is a new initiative aimed at providing fans of VTubers, anime, and doujin characters, who do not have dedicated games or official apps, a place to express themselves by animating their favorite characters with their own hands. An Amazon gift campaign is running until Saturday, May 30th, so please give it a try.
◼︎ Concept
Ugo-Chara is an 'animation hub for all characters,' where you can animate your favorite characters with your own hands and reach out to yet-unknown fans with those videos.
◼︎ The Passionate Journey to Release
Popular characters have social games and dedicated apps. In them, fans can move, interact with, and love the characters.
However, there are many other beloved characters in the world. VTubers, anime characters, doujin characters, and more—for most of them, even if fans want to 'animate' them, there are no easy means to do so. Many fans may feel the frustration of having affection but no place to express it.
That's why we wanted to become an 'animation' hub for all characters. The starting point for 'Ugo-Chara' was the desire to create an app where you can express your love for your favorite character with your own hands, and through those videos, the character can reach someone who doesn't know them yet.
