Yamaguchi Prefecture Kaminoseki Town's Official VTuber "Nonno-chan" Original Song Completed! Subtitle: A "Cute and Pop" Song Created by Singer-Songwriter RION is Born

The image song "Nonno-chan no Uta" for Yamaguchi Prefecture Kaminoseki Town's official VTuber "Nonno-chan" has been completed.

Nonno-chan was born in 2016 as the "Kaminoseki Stroll Guide Character" and debuted as a VTuber in March 2024. Through social media platforms such as YouTube and X, she continues to share the charm and "now" of Kaminoseki Town.

This time, as a new initiative to conclude the activities for the 2025 fiscal year, singer-songwriter RION, who hails from Shunan City, Yamaguchi Prefecture, was commissioned to produce the song. RION's vision of "cute and pop Nonno-chan" has been packed into the lyrics and melody, resulting in a very charming song.

This song conveys the atmosphere of Kaminoseki Town and Nonno-chan's bright and friendly personality. Please do listen to it.

A video summarizing the production process has also been released. Please enjoy it as well.

Message from RION

This time, I received a request to produce Nonno-chan's theme song. I started thinking about how to make many people instantly notice Nonno-chan's cuteness and unique originality, and before I knew it, the song was finished. I guess it's "love" (laughs).

I would be happy if Nonno-chan's life in Kaminoseki comes to mind for everyone, and if the addictive chorus makes you fall for Nonno-chan without realizing it.

I want many people to listen to it, not just across Japan, but around the world.
