YAGOO, the beloved CEO on the cover, turns into a handsome avatar – a “handsome avatar” that looks good in black-rimmed glasses, leaving Holomen confused and laughing out loud.

Motoaki Tanigo, aka “YAGOO,” the beloved CEO of the cover who runs the VTuber group “Hololive,” changed the X icon to a 3D model of a beautiful boy. “YAGOO has become a beautiful boy!” is attracting attention from fans.

◆YAGOO becomes a beautiful boy as part of introducing “Holo Earth”
Mr. YAGOO changed the icon as part of introducing the new area “Alternative City v1'' that was added to the cover's Metaverse project “Holo Earth'' on May 16th (Thursday).

In the same area, you can change your avatar's clothes, hairstyle, and body shape at fashion shops and beauty centers. Mr. YAGOO also landed in his own avatar and posted photos of himself having fun on X, saying, “I came to the world of Holo Earth!'' “I tried changing into the clothes I bought at the shop!''

“If I change my icon to a Holo-Earth avatar, I'll have the illusion that I might be an anime character,” he said, so he changed the icon from YAGOO's usual face photo to a beautiful boy avatar from Holo-Earth.

◆Fans and Holomen get excited too
Mr. YAGOO himself laughed at this beautiful boy avatar and said, “Have I ever been this refreshing? lol.'' On X, the song started trending with surprised comments from fans such as, “Oh, who was it when I thought it was our strongest idol, YAGOO?'', “Looking at YAGOO, he looks cool!?'', and “No, YAGOO is a beautiful boy!'' Masu.

Hololive members also reacted to this incident. Koyori Hiroi was confused and asked, “YAGOO is the model…!?'' Kuroe Sahana burst out laughing and said, “They look like Yagoo kids lol.'' Laplace Darkness is getting excited, saying, “Let's have black hair,'' and trying to grow him to his liking.
