Established in May 2022, LaRa Inc. joined the Brave group in November 2023. Originating from “Tanaka Koumu-ten,” a voluntary creative collective, Studio LaRa was founded with the same ethos, prioritizing creativity above all else.
Currently, the studio manages HIMEHINA, a virtual unit comprised of Hime Tanaka and Hina Suzuki.

HIMEHINA
Hime Tanaka began her activities in March 2018, with Hina Suzuki joining in May of the same year, marking the start of HIMEHINA as a virtual unit. As virtual artists, they primarily focus on musical activities such as singing and dancing, while also posting a wide range of content on YouTube, including game commentary and variety videos. Notably, the music video for their song “Heart Pie Dancehall” released in December 2023, surpassed 20 million views in just six months and recently exceeded 40 million views!
Additionally, HIMEHINA held “HIMEHINA LIVE 2024 ‘Remember the tears’ Sponsored by LIVE DAM AiR” for two days, August 2-3, 2024, at Toyosu PIT. Tickets for both days sold out, and over 2,500 fans each day enjoyed approximately three hours of performances featuring more than 40 songs. The concert received rave reviews from many JOJI (their fanbase).
Live viewings were also held in Seoul and Taipei, where the venues were filled with enthusiastic call-and-response from the audience.
