NEOKET Concept
pixiv's goal is to create a world in which fans and authors can share their opinions and appreciation of works, which will then go on to birth new creations and encounters. That is part of the appeal of this exhibition.

Up to 1,000 people can simultaneously join a virtual world within NEOKET, and the venue can support over 10,000 people. With their 3D avatars, participants can move freely within the venue and communicate with other people (both other participants and exhibitors).

Notable Features in the Online Marketplace, NEOKET

You can use your favorite 3D avatar to join NEOKET.

If you don't already have your avatar, pixiv has you covered. You can select an avatar to use among the premade defaults readily available. You can also use any 3D avatars you've made in VRoid Hub, a free 3D character platform powered by pixiv, to enjoy the event as well.
