Brave Group US Vtuber Company Acquired Idol Corp

idol Corp announced that it has been acquired by Brave group US. You can read the entire notice via its official Twitter (X) account.

The announcement starts with a history of idol Corp, as well as how it grew while maintaining its core values of transparency with the community and support of its idols. However, because of how many talents there now are in the agency, it is difficult to maintain the same level of support as before.

With Brave group US’s acquisition, idol Corp can continue its usual activities with even more resources than before. VTubers with idol Corp have the choice to stay or go indie. If they decide to go indie, they can retain the rights to their social media accounts, models, and characters. 

Near the end of the notice, idol tells fans that it and Brave group wish to resolve some issues regarding late shipments of goods, as well as open invoices. In Brave group’s announcement of the acquisition, it stated that former idol Corp CEO Aviel Basin has stepped down from his role. It does not seem like he is working at the company in any capacity.

Brave group started a partnership with idol Corp in December 2023. This is the likely reason why many commenters said they saw this coming. Other VTuber agencies part of Brave group include VSPO! and V4Mirai.

As of the time of writing, all of the idol Corp VTubers are still with the agency.
