distribute fourth information, for displaying video that includes at least the first character object and a second character object generated based on motion of the second user, to a third terminal device of a third user different from the first user and the second user;
distribute, in accordance with a second request for a first gift for one of the first character object or the second character object, third information to a third terminal device; and
in a case where the video includes a first object for the first character object and a first object for the second character object, determine a ranking of the first user and a ranking of the second user based on a number of points associated with the second object for the first character object and the number of points associated with the second object for the second character object.
11. The system according to claim 10 , wherein the processing circuitry is configured to provide at least one of the first user or the second user a bonus according to the number of points associated with the second object for the first character object and the number of points associated with the second object for the second character object.
12. The system according to claim 1 , wherein based on the second information, display of a first object by the first terminal device is different from display of a first object by a second terminal device.
13. The system according to claim 1 , wherein
the processing circuitry is further configured to
distribute first information to a third terminal device of a third user being different from the first user and the second user, and
distribute second information to a third user, and
based on second information, display of a first object by a second terminal device is different from display of a first object by a third terminal device.
14. The system according to claim 1 , wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to
store the first user information corresponding to a first state of a first object, and
store the second user information corresponding to a second state of a first object.
15. The system according to claim 14 , wherein
display of a first object by the first terminal device corresponds to the first state of the first object, and
display of a first object by the second terminal device corresponds to the second state of the first object.
16. A video distribution method, comprising:
transmitting first information for displaying a video including a first character object based on a first user of a first terminal device;
receiving, from at least one second terminal device of a plurality of second terminal devices in a case that a second terminal device displays the video, a request for a first gift for the first character object;
generating second information for displaying video that includes the first character object and a first object representing a first gift for the first character object in the video; and
transmitting the second information to a second terminal device of the plurality of second terminal devices, wherein
