While it hasn’t been confirmed what areas each of the hololive VTubers will focus on, Calliope is a big part of the music scene in Tokyo while Miko is a shrine maiden and can introduce various shrines and temples across the city. Gura may look at the waterways, though one would hope that she’s doing so via boat and not swimming in the channels.
The inauguration ceremony is set for February 13 with activities from the girls and other ambassadors to start the same day.
