Idk why I keep getting a little surprised by just how high-pitched it is! It's pretty cute though. Project Sekai looks really nice overall :)

I don't know if this has been discussed but... Luka's wearing a different outfit than her V2 and V4X. Well slightly different. I don't know if I just didn't notice it or if there's just not been a lot of promotional art for her in Sekai.

It’s probably just because Luka's my favorite/the one I actually have a chance of buying but I really liked this one. I may have lost it a little at the shoutout to overseas fans rofl

Sometimes she sounds a lot... darker than ideal and it's a little jumpy but I think Luka sounds best of them all so far. Finally, Luka being the best sounding Cryptonloid in something LOL

Same goes for Miku, her outfit resembles V3 but it's not quite the same. I wonder if there's a reason for it or did the design team just take some freedom with the costumes?

I wonder if for Project Sekai / going forward they're going to go with designs that sort of "harmonise" all of their other designs? I think it might make a happy middle, this Luka design in particular I like more than her V2 OR V4.

I made a collage a long time ago comparing the Project Sekai designs to different versions of each Vocaloids if you're interested here: Cryptonloid voicebank updates, collabs, & concert news (crypton_wat Twitter translations)


Honestly, Luka sounds so muffled to me in that talking clip. Not Kaito/Meiko bad, but still noticeable muffled like she's talking from inside of a box.

I like Luka's the best so far. It is a little muffled but at this point I'm not surprised haha.

Thanks for the link back to the post @uncreepy! That's really interesting. If those do become their Piapro designs, I'm down for it. Seems like the best of both (or all, in Miku's case?) worlds. And as a Kaito stan, any design that looks more like V1 will automatically win my heart so

Thank you! It seems like some of the purple in the render were blocked by Luka's pose and the other characters which explains a lot.

So when does this come out and can be expect this in the West too?
I am not very familiar with games on smartphones at all, don't really use my phone for that. But canyou not just download the Japanese apk (I think that's the type of apps?) and play it anyway when it's out?

No solid release date has been provided even for Japan atm, pre-registration was originally supposed to start around now, but it was postponed and no new date has yet been announced for pre-reg, let alone for the actual release. I imagine it can't be long now before we get news about it's release.

As for a western release, not a single word has been said I think. I would imagine this game will get an overseas release, but that would be somewhere after the Japanese release. I don't know though, but given how large of a project Sekai is, it'd make sense to release an overseas version as well.

I'm not very well versed ln mobile gaming either, but I guess it'd be possible to just download the JP version once it's released.

When I first got my Samsung smart phone about 2 years ago, I wanted to download Japanese games but had problems because of locale and couldn't figure out how to easily make a Japanese region 2nd account compared to the small, easy steps for iPhone. I had to download QooApp to get Japanese games (basically a proxy sort of app that helps you download Japanese phone games). I am not a phone game person, so I don't know if it's easier to access apps or not nowadays. Hopefully someone can confirm.
