Neo-Porte (ネオポルテ), formerly known as merise (ミライズ, miraizu), is a Virtual Talent agency produced and founded in 2021 by CR Ojiji (Crazy Raccoon eSport Team CEO), soraru (utaite), mafumafu (utaite), and Shibuya HAL (VTuber). It is a part of Brave Group since 2025.
The name "Neo-Porte" was mafumafu's idea. It holds the meaning of "new" and "gate". The agency was initially known as "merise" until 27 February 2022, when the company rebranded before the debut of their first generation talents. Despite the rebranding, they kept merise's slogan, "Shall we draw your future map together?" (新しいキミの未来図、共に描きませんか?).
CR Ojiji is in charge of overseeing the agency management and it will be separate from Crazy Raccoon; mafumafu is in charge of overseeing sponsorship and music production; soraru is in charge of overseeing events, merchandise production, and music production; and Shibuya HAL is in charge of overseeing general streaming activities of the talents.
As of June 2022, the agency has 1.5 million subscribers on YouTube.
