The first release was debut goods for the male unit “Chrono prince” from the VTuber production “AStars production,” aimed at the Southeast Asian and Thai market.
Background of Brave stores Launch
Brave group’s purpose is “Japanese Adventure. World Wide Romance”, with the mission to “Strike Wonder in 8 Billion Hearts”. With this purpose and mission in mind, Brave group has been working on IP businesses such as the next generation Virtual esports project “VSPO!” (*1) among other VTuber projects and IP business.
While domestic sales are successfully managed through sites like “colleize”(*2) and other EC platforms, there was a lack of sufficient provision for overseas markets(*3), leading to the circulation of pirated goods, which adversely affects both customers and the content industry. To address this issue, Brave group is launching “Brave stores”(*4) to sell official Japanese content and merchandise, including their own IPs, globally.
