[Report on infringement of rights of our affiliated live streamers by external creators]
Thank you for your continued support of the virtual live streamer group "Nijisanji" and "NIJISANJI EN".
On September 1, 2024, an external musician (hereinafter "the subject") secretly photographed the appearance of a person who is said to be a live streamer of our company during an external influencer's YouTube broadcast (hereinafter "this broadcast"), and the photograph was sent to a third party without permission, including defamatory language.
There is also suspicion that the subject used illegal physical force against the body of a live streamer affiliated with our company.
We also immediately began investigating the facts from August 30, when the announcement of this broadcast was made, and have identified some information such as the time when the photograph mentioned in this broadcast was taken, the location where it was taken, and the victim.
As a freelance musician, the Target is involved in providing music, recording, mixing, and mastering (hereinafter referred to as "Music Providing, etc.") to many artists, and we have also requested him to provide music, etc.
Under such circumstances, it is extremely regrettable that suspicions have arisen that the Target committed an indescribable act of barbarism, such as this case, which has hurt our affiliated live streamers and may even shake the foundation of the trust between our company and creators.
We will continue to investigate the facts, but in this case, we suspect that acts that may constitute assault crimes against our affiliated live streamers and violations of the Harassment Prevention Ordinance have occurred, and we intend to take firm action, including the possibility of taking the matter to criminal law.
In addition to terminating the current contract between our company and the Target, we will also take legal action against the Target for breach of confidentiality obligations, violation of privacy rights, defamation of reputation and credibility, and violation of other rights.
We will provide adequate support to our affiliated live streamers who are concerned about this matter, and aim to resolve this matter as soon as possible.
In order to prevent secondary damage, we ask that you refrain from spreading photos or information about this matter, or posting comments mocking our affiliated live streamers on social media or through the comment function during broadcasts.
In addition, there have been some voices on the Internet alleging that our affiliated live streamers and their managers, as well as our company's executives and employees, may have committed this crime, but we have no knowledge of any basis for the claim that our affiliated live streamers or our company's executives and employees were involved in the acts of harm in this case.
Please refrain from assuming that this case was committed by our affiliated live streamers or our company's executives and employees and spreading false information.
We are considering taking legal action against these malicious acts after preserving evidence.
In addition, as content such as "singing covers" involving the subject and posts on social media by our affiliated live streamers who are presumed to have received songs provided by the subject, could be used as a starting point to investigate the victim in this case, we have temporarily made the content private and deleted the SNS posts.
Publishing the list of private content and deleted posts on the Internet, such as on SNS, will lead to secondary victimization of the victim in this case, so we ask that you delete them immediately.
We recognize that something like this should never happen again and that it should never be tolerated. In order to protect the physical and mental health of our affiliated live streamers and allow them to continue their activities with peace of mind, we will make further efforts to improve the working environment for our affiliated live streamers, including reviewing the selection of creators to order from and the criteria for continued orders.
For any inquiries regarding this matter or to provide any information toward its resolution, please contact ANYCOLOR Inc.'s inquiry desk (https://anycolor.co.jp/contact). We ask that you refrain from contacting our affiliated live streamers (including any contact on social media or comments during live streams, etc.).
