Fri, 01 Aug 2025 12:00:00 +0900

pixiv implemented its first-ever pixiv Ambassador Project this spring!

From March to June 2025, a number of creators who love pixiv and truly understand the joy of creation were appointed as pixiv official brand ambassadors.

These ambassadors, mostly from South Korea and Taiwan, posted on social media and in online communities to actively share information useful for the creation process, as well as helpful bits of professional know-how.

We also had a number of fun projects designed to inspire more creativity, such as projects for posting works based on a theme, reviewing them on YouTube, live streaming on Discord, and redrawing.

Thanks to the hard work of the pixiv official brand ambassadors, a lot of wonderful works were posted to pixiv in those three months!

In this article, we will introduce the ambassadors and showcase some of the excellent works that can be found on pixiv (chosen by the ambassadors themselves)!
