What is Re:AcT?
Re:AcT, formerly known as KAGAYAKI STARS, is a group of Virtual YouTubers managed by mikai inc. As of February 2022, the agency has over 1.273 million subscribers on YouTube. Hanabasami Kyo is the most popular member with over 300,000 subscribers.
On December 3, 2018, KAGAYAKI STARS changed its name to "Re:AcT" due to a shift in its management policy. KAGAYAKI STARS focused on idols, but Re:AcT expanded to include a variety of virtual talents. The original project continued, but the talents within it started working individually based on their unique characteristics.
Five talents graduated during this change: Kurama Tsumugi and Saotome Poemu on December 3, and Orio Koya, Hoshikuzu Len, and Mikage Lux on December 31. This led to the disbandment of SuiSay.
