The much-anticipated Hatsune Miku: Memorial Dress Ver. – based off an illustration by ぽむ / Pomu – is now available for pre-order from Good Smile Company!
From the product page:
“From the past to the future, reaching ever higher.“
“A beautiful scale figure of Hatsune Miku based on the winning illustration of the Hatsune Miku 10th Anniversary Illustration Contest! The winning entry was Pomu’s “Reaching Ever Higher“, which has now been transformed into a gorgeous figure at the hands of the esteemed sculptor, Takayuki Kawahara!
“Each and every detail of the figure has been meticulously to faithfully capture the theme of the original illustration – the past and future of Hatsune Miku. Her unique dress, the accessories that adorn her hair and the microphone stand at her fingertips all incorporate motifs from the numerous songs Hatsune Miku has sung in the past.
“Her hair has been sculpted with translucent sections which not only create an ethereal appearance but also bring out the perfect hue. The charming expression on her face has also been perfected in figure form, filled with hope for the future to match the title of the illustration – “Reaching Ever Higher”. This work of art challenges the limitations of what is possible for the world of figures, and can truly be called a masterpiece among Hatsune Miku figures! Be sure to add her to your collection.”

Project Holo has revealed two new stops of their tour in Poland: One at Mochicon in Rybnik and then another one, during “Weekend with Japan – Ikigai” event in Rzeszów.
Project Holo has revealed two new stops for their tour in Poland: one at Mochicon in Rybnik, and then another one during the “Weekend with Japan – Ikigai” event in Rzeszów. Readers may remember Project Holo in our previous publication about them.
Right now, there isn’t much info about either of the concerts, but what has been confirmed is that the Mochicon fan concert is going to be performed on July 13 at 10:00 PM (CET) in main scene.
Those who are interested may buy tickets here.
Location: Technical Education School Complex n.1 in Rybnik, Poland
Moreover, there is going to be another, earlier stop of the fan-organised event during Ikigai in Rzeszów. There is less than one week left before the short concert, and the organizer said that he encourages any kind of VOCALOID / UTAU fans to join him and to have a little talk after the show. Also, this concert is completely free, so if you’re from Poland and are still hesitant about attending, here’s your chance!
Location: Youth Culture Center in Rzeszów, Poland
Project Holo is interested in Polish/European creators, so if you know anybody whose work would look great when performed onstage, make sure to contact them and help make this dream come true!
And here comes a little reminder about Project Holo. They are a group of fans focused on creating and organizing fanmade VOCALOID concerts in Europe. Currently, they operate only in Poland, but considering their growth in the past months, and how these two new stops will make four total shows, it’s likely that the group will try to expand its horizons even further.
Let’s wish them good luck!
Today, July 2, 2019, marks the 10th anniversary of the Hatsune Miku Project DIVA video game series from SEGA! Here’s an overview of the celebrations going on today.
First, in Hatsune Miku VR Future Live, the price for all game content is now 50% off! So if you had something that you’ve been eyeing, but was too expensive for you to buy, now is the best chance to consider a purchase!
Secondly, the previously reported DAIBA de DIVA SUPER LIVE 2019 concert event will be taking place today at the Tokyo Joypolis! You can find its official site here. To whomever was able to score a ticket, we wish you have the best time possible!
Right as the clock struck 12:00 on July 2 in Japan, SEGA has uploaded this very special anniversary announcement video:
That’a right, they have announced the first ever Nintendo Switch installment of the series called Hatsune Miku Project DIVA MEGA 39’s (read as “MEGA MIX”)!
Hatsune Miku Project DIVA MEGA 39’s will feature a total of 101 different songs, one of which will be an original one that serves as the theme song for this game.
In all, this installment will have 10 brand new songs making their debut to the series, two of which have been revealed below:
エイリアンエイリアン / Alien Alien by ナユタン星人 / Nayutalien
39みゅーじっく! / 39 Music! by みきとP / MikitoP
The game will also bring back a lot of the modules and costumes from series past, featuring 300 in total. In fact, the modules were given a touch-up for this game to appear more anime-like in their PVs, giving this installment its own graphics style that hasn’t been seen in the series up to now!
Finally, being a Switch title, the game can be played either with buttons presses, or with screen taps like Project Mirai Deluxe had.
As for why it’s called MEGA 39’s, the July 4 issue of the Weekly Famitsu magazine will reportedly contain the reason.
Furthermore, the T-shirt design contest on piapro is making a comeback! The winner of the contest will see their T-shirt design featured in the MEGA 39’s game, see their appear in the game’s credits roll, and even get a copy of the game for free! The contest will begin on July 5, and end on August 15.
Next, it has been confirmed that Hatsune Miku Projet DIVA MEGA 39’s will have a playable demo at SEGA’s booth at the Tokyo stop of Magical Mirai 2019! Members from the dev team at SEGA AM2 will be present to get visitor feedback on the demo as well.
Finally, those who own the Playstation 4 game, Hatsune Miku Project DIVA Future Tone or Future Tone DX can receive the new songs in MEGA 39’s as a download pack in 2020!
Hatsune Miku Project DIVA MEGA 39’s is sheculed for release sometime in 2020 for the Nintendo Switch. See here for the official site.
