VTuber girl group Hololive’s zero-generation Star Street Comet (Star Street Comet) recently sang at a karaoke bar with Japan’s popular Japanese female singer-songwriter tuki. The interaction and chorus between the two in the box were almost completely recorded and cut into the first and second parts. The releases on their respective channels surprised fans on both sides.
The first half of about 30 minutes was released on Star Street Comet’s channel, and the second half of about 50 minutes was released on tuki.’s channel. The two sang their respective masterpieces “ビビデバ” and “Dinner Song” and other 14 songs, and also chatted with each other during the period. His experiences in music and love, as well as tuki.’s student life and other topics.
This seems to be the first offline meeting between the two parties. At the beginning, Xingjie asked Tuki. if he was often invited to sing K. Tuki. said that he rarely went to karaoke. He only came to the box to record his own songs, which was more common. Stay home and play guitar and sing.
Xingjie, who considers himself 18 years old, said that he likes singing karaoke and can sing for five hours by himself, but he has been too busy recently and hasn’t done it for a long time.
tuki. made his debut with the original single “Dinner Song” in 2023. After one year, he not only released his own debut album “15”, but also wore a high school uniform to perform on NHK’s New Year’s Eve program “Red and White Songs”. Although he has never shown his face, “Dinner Song” was recorded by borrowing money from her father, but her amazing creative talent and mature yet youthful singing voice quickly attracted fans at home and abroad.
You must pay attention to hiding your identity during activities. As a VTuber, Xingjie also faces the same problem, tuki. I was curious if she had ever been recognized. Xingjie said no. She also revealed that she would deliberately lower her voice in public and wear a mask and Sunglasses cover the face.
tuki. also talked about the troubles faced by cover-style (similar to Ado) singer-songwriters in their private lives, such as being secretly embarrassed when their friends listen to their own works. In order to prevent peers around him from discovering his true identity, tuki. will “find various reasons to escape” when he is invited to karaoke. He will behave like a student on campus, and his performance at concerts will be deliberately low-key.
For the translation of the interactive clips between the two in the previous and later chapters, please refer to the clip of Yakiniku Man “Starfire (セイカ) Clip”. In the end, the two successfully exchanged LINE, but revealed that the high school students no longer use LINE very much, but keep in touch through private messages on Instagram.
As for the earliest interaction between Street Comet and Tuki., it will be in September 2024.
At that time, tuki. released a new single “Star Street Station” (tentative translation, Star Street Station), which attracted the attention of Star Street Comet (Sui Jiang). Sui Jiang reposted and said that she resonated with “Star Street”, and tuki. saw it and called her directly. I felt so honored and made a wish to Sui-chan, “I hope you can cover it.😍laugh”.

“Sing Street’s Station” has to be interpreted by Star Street himself, and Sui-chan happily accepted the challenge, “If you are told that you want me to sing it…then you have to sing it.” Sui-chan uploaded a cover of the chorus Shorts, and the next day tuki. She picked up the guitar and sang in response, and she sang a cover of Star Street Comet’s hit song “ビビデバ” which has exceeded 100 million views, which became an opportunity for cooperation.

She admitted that they went out together and “met JK in real life.” However, the information could not be revealed further. It was speculated that the two of them were at that time One of the date schedules is the karaoke video content released this time.
Since the chorus of “Dinner Song” goes, “No matter how many times the night falls, I still can’t form the words “I love you””, it is considered that one needs rich experience in love to write such affectionate lyrics. Star Street said that he has the potential to tuki. I would like to ask you about writing lyrics and talking about love. “What does it mean to be loved in love? What does it take to create a song like this?”
