Nijisanji EN fans gather at the Palais des congrès de Montréal in Canada for the guest appearances of virtual livers Elira Pendora (LazuLight), Rosemi Lovelock (Obsydia), Nina Kosaka, Enna Alouette and Millie Parfait (Ethyria).

The guests' lineup of activities in Canada's bilingual event includes talk panels, autograph sessions and a live concert, all in-person.

Talk Panel

Questions from the audience are answered by the guests during the talk panel, ranging from Millie's rating of Elira's feet, favorite Pokemon, what they want to do in Montreal, worst and best cook, and poutine.

Some of the memorable answers from the guests include the following:

  • Nina wanting to try the Ferris wheel
  • Enna's remark to Millie: "She's the most creative streamer of all time. OF ALL TIME."
  • Elira recalls her introduction to VTubers and how she became one thanks to Millie: "I sat and watched like 3 hours of VTuber videos, and I was like, 'What the hell am I being subjected to right now?' Now I am one."
  • As Elira will have her 3D debut at Nijisanji Festival 2022, she mentioned there's "going to be a surprise, but there are things in the works."

Live Concert

The live concert is a milestone for Millie and Enna. "So, if you guys don't know, this is my first duo with Enna, this is like the first song we sang together on stage, and she's makes me super emotional, [...] we're singing with everyone, we're singing it with so many, and I'm just really happy," Millie says as she holds back her tears.

Twitter is filled with clips from the concert, tagged #NIJIBESTIES:

Aside from their appearance at Otakuthon, Millie and Enna also appeared at Crunchyroll Expo for their collaboration song and music video with Crunchyroll Games, "Pull for Your Heart."
