My introduction to vocaloid outside of playing a tad of Project Diva Extend, and it’s a fun and cutesy take on the project series, I really adore the chibi style and characters. The game is insanely easy for a Project Series game (going off of what I know of the other entries), I got A and S ranks on every song on my first attempt on normal mode. This game does suffer from some bloat issues, notably the fact that there are SIX difficulties for each song (3 on tap mode, 3 on button mode), made worse by having to unlock hard mode by beating the song on normal first. The actual music at first turned me off a bit but vocaloid actually is pretty solid once you get used to the voices, and I found myself liking it quite a bit eventually. There’s also a mode where you can give the vocaloids money and you can see what things they spend it on, alongside being able to decorate their humble abode. ALSO also there’s a puyo puyo mode so I think that makes the game a 6/10 minimum.
This is a scattershot review and I apologize, I really just wanted to yap for a bit about this game because I honestly enjoyed it much. Vocaloid is a weird facet of 2000’s-2010’s otaku culture that I’ve wanted to dig into for a long time so it was nice finally looking into it, I actually went ahead and got both the original Project Diva and Mega Mix (both on Switch and PC) to play later because I had so much fun with this one. I haven’t felt the best recently so I needed something like this to lean on for a bit. Miku is gender
