Disrupting the traditional “performance-on-stage” concert mode, the two-hour musical film aims to expand Bilibili’s virtual entertainment segment. The lineup consists of 12 popular virtual idols from both China and Japan. They include hanser and Aria, who come from VirtuaReal, a virtual talent incubation project jointly operated by Bilibili and the Japanese Vtuber group NIJISANJI. Huo Zun, a well-known Chinese musician, features as a special guest in the musical where his virtual avatar \"Nine-Tailed Neko\" will be officially revealed for the first time.
