NoriPro (のりプロ) is an agency of Virtual YouTubers created by mangaka Tsukudani Norio. The name is an abbreviation of "Tsukudani Norio Production."
As of January 2024, the agency has more than 1.3 million subscribers on YouTube, making it the 8th Japan-based agency with highest subscribers after hololive, NIJISANJI, Virtual eSports Project, 774 inc., Neo-Porte, .LIVE and Aogiri High School.
Initially, unlike the most other agencies, in which talents are either auditioned from public or scouted by the management, NoriPro's talents are solely consisting of the latter from Tsukudani Norio, though some of the talents still have other known identities. In September 2023, auditions aimed towards creators were opened to the public for the first time since 2019.
