Here are the first details, via its official website:
■ Story
“Sekai,” a place where “true feelings” can be discovered—.
Shibuya, Tokyo. In a city where young people gather and sub-culture centered on music thrives, a girl was looking up at the enormous LCD screen at the intersection. She saw the virtual singer “Hatsune Miku” and muttered.
“She’s amazing, that Miku… she can do anything.”
When she returns home, the girl looks at her smartphone and notices it has a song called “Untitled.” Wondering where it came from, she played the song, only to then be surrounded by a white light and arrive at an unknown place.
In front of the surprised girl stood Hatsune Miku.
“Welcome to Sekai!”
Miku reached out to the perplexed girl and smiled.
“Let’s sing together!”
The curtain rises on a story of boys and girls who will discover their “true feelings” and “songs all their own.”
■ Keywords
Sekai
A mysterious world different from the real world, where various “true feelings” are projected. There are as many Sekai as there are emotions, and its form changes depending on the person’s emotions.
Virtual Singers
Beings represented by virtual singers in the real world, which sing songs made by creators around the world. In Sekai, their appearance changes based on the person’s emotion, and they help the person to discover their “true feelings.”
“Untitled”
A silent song with no melody or lyrics, born at the same time as Sekai. It plays a key role in that it leads to Sekai. When a person discovers their “true feelings” and sings with Miku and friends, those feelings transform into a song that is titled for the first time.
