Hatsune Miku was released on August 31st, 2007, as the first in the Character Vocal Series (CV Series), and will turn 16 years old in 2023, the same age as her character setting.
Through "creation", we will look back on Hatsune Miku's 16-year journey with her users, and in the hope for a future in which the "circle of creativity" will expand even further, focus on the creative culture and creators that have emerged over the past 16 years.
We will hold events that involve creators and audiences from various fields.

Is there a list of more detailed terms that I'm not seeing in the Piapro blog page? As best I can tell, the only guidelines at this point are:
  • That the song be 5 minutes or less
  • That the song pertain to "Hatsune Miku" in some way
  • The submission period dates
  • That entries will be judged by a representative of each company
Have I understood that all correctly (via online translation)?

I'm also wondering about how you actually submit an entry, if this contest follows the usual rules about CFM being granted license to winning submissions, etc.

Edit:
Also, if there are any guidelines as to what language the song should be in.
