2. The information processing system according to claim 1 ,

wherein the specific electronic medium is associated, in the information processing system, with at least one of expiration date information and use frequency information, and

wherein association of the specific electronic medium with the user information comprises at least one of determining that the electronic medium is within an expiration date and that the electronic medium has not reached an upper limit of a use frequency.

3. The information processing system according to claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to:

determine that satisfaction of the first specific condition has occurred when the specific electronic medium is associated with the user information, and specific display for displaying the change screen is selected based on the input of the distribution user.

4. The information processing system according to claim 3 ,

wherein the specific display is a check screen of whether to display the change screen.

5. The information processing system according to claim 3 ,

wherein the specific display is an icon for displaying the change screen.

6. The information processing system according to claim 5 ,

wherein the processing circuitry is configured to display the predetermined part associated with the user information as a selectable element of a closet screen configured to be displayed in the video, and

wherein the processing circuitry is configured to, when the predetermined part is selected on the closet screen, perform one of: initiating display of the icon in a case where the icon is not displayed, or highlighting the icon in a case where the icon is displayed.

7. The information processing system according to claim 5 ,

wherein the predetermined part associated with the user information and the icon are configured to be displayed as selectable elements on a closet screen configured to be displayed in the video, and

wherein the processing circuitry is configured to, when the icon is selected on the closet screen, display parts other than the predetermined part associated with the user information as unselectable elements.

8. The information processing system according to claim 1 ,

wherein the processing circuitry is configured to display the another part in which a part of the predetermined part is changed as a selectable element on the change screen.

9. The information processing system according to claim 8 ,

wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to associate further attribute information with the specific electronic medium, and

wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to display the another part to which a part of the predetermined part is configured to be changed as a selectable element on the change screen, based on the further attribute information.

10. The information processing system according to claim 1 ,

wherein the another part is a part with a color different from that of the predetermined part.

11. The information processing system according to claim 1 ,

wherein the another part is a part in which a texture of the predetermined part is subjected to UV scroll.

12. The information processing system according to claim 1 ,

wherein the processing circuitry is configured to, in a case when a character object of another user is included in the video, determine a predetermined part from a plurality of parts wearable by the character object of the distribution user and/or the character object of the another user in accordance with a predetermined method, based on the input of the distribution user or the another user,

wherein the processing circuitry is configured to associate the predetermined part with the user information of the distribution user and/or user information of the another user, and

wherein the processing circuitry is configured to associate the another part selected based on the input of the distribution user or the another user with respect to the change screen with the user information of the distribution user and/or the user information of the another user, and cancel the association of the predetermined part with the user information of the distribution user and/or the user information of the another user.

13. The information processing system according to claim 1 ,

wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to:

receive a display request for a gift that is transmitted from the viewing user terminal;

display a gift object corresponding to the gift in the video, in accordance with the display request received for the gift transmitted from the viewing user terminal;

determine whether the gift according to the display request received for the gift transmitted from the viewing user terminal is a specific gift;

determine whether a second specific condition relevant to the distribution user or the viewing user is satisfied when the gift is determined to be the specific gift, and

when the processing circuitry determines that the second specific condition is satisfied, receive the display request without reducing a point associated with the viewing user.

14. An information processing method for executing:

a transmission step of transmitting information relevant to a video including a character object of a distribution user and information relevant to an input of the distribution user to a server apparatus;

a reception step of receiving information relevant to a predetermined part determined from a plurality of parts wearable by the character object in accordance with a predetermined method, based on the input of the distribution user, from the server apparatus;

an association step of associating the information relevant to the predetermined part received in the reception step with user information of the distribution user;

a first condition determination step of determining whether a first specific condition relevant to the distribution user is satisfied; and

a change screen display step of displaying a change screen for changing the determined predetermined part or the predetermined part associated in the association step to another part in which a part of the predetermined part is changed when it is determined that the first specific condition is satisfied in the first condition determination step,

wherein in the association step, the another part changed based on the input of the distribution user with respect to the change screen is associated with the user information, and the association of the predetermined part with the user information is canceled, and

wherein it is determined that the first specific condition is satisfied by checking one or more electronic media owned by the distribution user, determining that a specific electronic medium is associated with the user information and is included in the one or more electronic media, and, based on an attribute of the specific electronic medium that is owned by the distribution user, determining whether to consume the specific electronic medium and remove the specific electronic medium from the one or more electronic media owned by the distribution user.

15. A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising computer program that is configured to, when executed by a processor, configure the processor to perform:
