Live2D's Exciting Update for Online Creativity

Live2D, a pioneer in adding dimensional animation to 2D illustrations, has announced a substantial upgrade to its online video editor, nizima ACTION!! β版, on May 27, 2026. This new version incorporates enhanced features that will greatly benefit content creators, particularly with the addition of voice synthesis capabilities and a new character model.

What is nizima ACTION!! β版?

nizima ACTION!! is a free online video editor that enables users to edit videos directly from their browser with a robust set of features. It offers advanced editing capabilities, such as keyframe manipulation and multi-track editing, making it much more powerful than typical web-based applications.

As a product of Live2D, it allows users to load Live2D models directly into their projects and even record the movements of these models in real-time using tracking applications. The platform also provides a wealth of free assets suitable for various types of video content, including short films, music covers, and promotional materials, specifically catered to VTuber videos and Live2D model showcases. Currently, it is available for free during its beta phase.

Discover the New Features of nizima ACTION!!

One of the standout features added to nizima ACTION!! is the VOICEVOX text-to-speech capability, allowing users to generate character voices simply by inputting text. This integration works seamlessly alongside Google’s TTS functionality, enabling users to create the voices of various characters, including the popular “Zundamon”. You can customize the voice output by adjusting speaking speed, pitch, volume, and intonation.

The generated audio can be added to the timeline with just one click, creating a smooth workflow that synchronizes easily with the lip-syncing of Live2D models. This system offers an all-in-one solution for voice synthesis and animation, eliminating the need for external software.

For all characters used, compliance with their respective usage guidelines and proper credit is required, such as “VOICEVOX: Zundamon”.

Introducing the Zundamon Live2D Model

One of the most exciting new additions is the Zundamon Live2D model, illustrated by artist Sakamoto Ahiru. This beloved character from YouTube makes its dynamic debut as a Live2D model within the asset collection. Users can find the Zundamon (Sakamoto Ahiru style) model available as a sample, ready to be animated alongside the VOICEVOX voices. The model supports a variety of movements and expressions, compatible with hand tracking, making it versatile for various video creation, such as memes or educational content.

Latest Characters and Future Updates

In addition to Zundamon, the upgrade includes a variety of other characters from the Touhoku Zunko and Zundamon Project, including Touhoku Kiritan, Shikoku Metan, and several more, enriching the asset library. The company is dedicated to expanding its character selection further, and these Live2D models will also be available for free distribution on the official project site.
