"Project Sekai: The Broken World and Miku Who Can't Sing" anime movie will premiere in Japan on January 17, 2025









https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e1TrAhX3qnY

Quote
The Project Sekai movie will feature a ‘new’ Hatsune Miku, who has not appeared in the game, as she meets characters from Project Sekai and grows alongside them. It is described as a completely original work.
The official synopsis for the Hatsune Miku movie Project Sekai: Kowareta Sekai to Utaenai Miku:
Ichika Hoshino hears an unfamiliar Miku song at a CD shop. She sees a version of Hatsune Miku on the screen she doesn’t recognize and blurts out, “Miku!?” Surprised, Miku meets Ichika’s gaze, but she soon disappears.
Later, after a street performance, Miku reappears on Ichika’s phone, looking abandoned. Upon hearing Miku’s story, Ichika learns that Miku wishes to reach out to people with her song, but no matter how much she sings, it never seems to get through.
Seeing Ichika touch many hearts through her live performances, Miku hopes to learn from her. Smiling, Ichika responds, “If I’m good enough,” and thus begins a new story involving Hatsune Miku and the young characters.

The full staff list for Hatsune Miku’s Project Sekai anime movie includes: ...

I'm guessing this is a crossover in order to promote Gamefam's other Roblox game TMNT Battle Tycoon.

No, pretty sure it's to promote Tales of the TMNT series since in the link it's said "SPONSORED BY NICKELODEON" and it ended with "And, you can watch the brand new Tales of the TMNT 12 episode event starting August 9th only on Paramount+! 📺".

I just find it weird that, with how long Sonic Speed Sim has been around, why such major crossover event now?
Plus, seems a missed opportunity to have events themed on other Sega IPs if events don't have to be strictly Sonic related.

About other SEGA's IPs, it's more up to SEGA than to Gamefam.
And seems like other than Sonic Team, the rest in SEGA doesn't really care enough about Sonic Sim.


For example, why not have an event in Sonic Speed Simulator that can be cross-promotional with Gamefam's other Roblox games? There's a Military and War Tycoon game, why not a GUN-themed set for one of them?
May be SEGA won't let them.

There will be no more Sonic Olympic games.
The Olympics canceled the partnership in favor of esports and NFTs








Quote
"They wanted to look at other partners and NFTs and esports," Lee Cocker, who worked on almost every entry in the series, told Eurogamer. "Basically the IOC wanted to bring [it] back to themselves internally and look at other partners so they would get more money."
Cocker previously worked at ISM Ltd, a sports marketing and digital media firm responsible for managing the Olympic Games license in the world of video games.
With Nintendo and Sega's mascots ditched, the IOC has gone elsewhere. It's not been well promoted, but this year's Paris 2024 Games do have an official video game tie-in: Olympics Go! Paris 2024, a free-to-play smartphone-focused effort from San Franciso and Seoul-based company nWay, which previously developed several Power Rangers games.
There's a PC version of ...

Hm... maybe this  movie will tell me what exactly is a vocaloid?

I mean... is Hatsune Miku a human? A cyborg with internal parts? Some sort of digimon? I know what the vocaloid software is just not sure what a vocaloid person is.
No, pretty sure it's to promote Tales of the TMNT series since in the link it's said "SPONSORED BY NICKELODEON" and it ended with "And, you can watch the brand new Tales of the TMNT 12 episode event starting August 9th only on Paramount+! 📺".
Oh, I didn't know they were getting a new TV series based on the film. I figured because Gamefam also had TMNT thing, it would just be easier to reuse from that.
About other SEGA's IPs, it's more up to SEGA than to Gamefam.
And seems like other than Sonic Team, the rest in SEGA doesn't really care enough about Sonic Sim.
I would chalk it up to Sega wasting potential yet again... but Sonic Speed Sim is already a mess.
May be SEGA won't let them.
I think it's less won't let them and more not creative enough to consider it.
There will be no more Sonic Olympic games.

If the Olympics want to shoot themselves in the foot with NFTs, that's their business. I never really bothered with the Mario & Sonic Olympic games much.
But I'm hoping that Sega and Nintendo would find new uses for the "Mario & Sonic" spin-off brand and not just abandon it because off no Olympics. It would seem wasteful and miss out a lot of games that could happen that normally won't.

(I should've called this comic "Burning Britches", it be a more fitting title.

Persona 5: The Phantom X Sakai Ayaka Music Video Trailer

Ayaka was previously showcased during the Version 2.0 update livestream. Her Persona II is Calliope.
Ayaka is a collage student and street musician, and can be found holding a guitar in a corner of the city. In high school she was invited by a friend to form a band. Due to her introvertedness and fear of strangers, she served as an inconspicuous rhythm guitarist.
After the band disbanded, she kept her desire to engage in musical activities, so ...

I mean... is Hatsune Miku a human? A cyborg with internal parts? Some sort of digimon? I know what the vocaloid software is just not sure what a vocaloid person is.

Yeah, I believe the movie will answer that.
Also we also have an answer now if someone asked, "What anime is Hatsune Miku from?" without explaining to people that she's not anime character and then telling them the history of vocaloid.

Oh, I didn't know they were getting a new TV series based on the film. I figured because Gamefam also had TMNT thing, it would just be easier to reuse from that.

It's a new animated series so no wonder if few people know about it.

Lol. Nice one.
It's like FIFA situation with EA back then.
FIFA became greedy but turned out EA's still making money in their new football series even without FIFA licenses.

Like that ever stopped the fans.

Still, I figured Gamefam would cut corners for promotional reasons. They could've kept it all on their TMNT game.

SEGA Registers Japanese Website Domain Name for Persona 5: The Phantom X

Earlier this month, a Persona 5: The Phantom X local event took place in Shanghai with staff from Atlus as well as Perfect World, the company responsible for the development and publishing of P5X in Asia. At the event, they stated that there would be an international release of Persona 5: The Phantom X, followed by a console release.
Now, a relevant domain name has recently been registered by Sega Corporation. With the name “P5X.JP,” the domain was created a few days ago on ...

I think the promotion with Nickeledeon is more from SEGA than Gamefam.
Nickeledeon is under Paramount afterall, who worked with SEGA in Sonic 3 movie.

EA are the worse.

I know. Also EA killed one of my favorite game franchises, Bookworm.
I still hate them for it.
