Tokyo, JAPAN — COVER Corporation (Minato-ku, Tokyo, Japan, CEO: Motoaki Tanigo) announced today the new unit “hololive English -Promise-“. Five talents from hololive English, IRyS, Ceres Fauna, Ouro Kronii, Nanashi Mumei, and Hakos Baelz, will join together and begin their activites as members of the new unit.
Once mere observers of humanity from a distance, the members of hololive English -Promise- now set upon a “life-sized adventure” on this world’s stage, seeking answers to their own “promises”.
Accordingly, VSinger project “Project:HOPE” has been closed, and IRyS will now officially belong to “hololive English -Promise-” starting from October 8th, 2023 (PDT).
There will be no major changes to the activities of the 5 members of hololive English -Promise-. They will continue to create and provide content in their unique styles, and we would appreciate your continued support for the talents.
Official Hashtag: #holoPromise
I honestly think it would’ve just been 6 people instead of 5. From everything we know about the group Irys was fairly closely knit to the group with or without sana, it’s just that without Sana Irys was basically able to just fill all the places that Sana was originally in.
I think ultimately it’s just an official rebranding of Councilrys, since that was always a fanname combination right down to having Irys’s usual naming mannerisms.
I think it’s sweet since while she’s always been a part of the group, this is sort of making it official now.
