1:38 I always loved the symbolism of the notes in ACUTE. This is why it‘s one of my favorite charts in the entire series. The Extreme chart in FT even has matching triplets when they are singing together (ex. Luka & Kaito: Square, Cross, Square). I also love that the red (!) circle is used for the dramatic instrumental part, which fits to the stage turning red at the end of the PV. I‘d love to see more charts like this one in future songs!! :3

[@noahnova4882]

Something similar to that happened in project miari in the chart "on the rocks" on medium difficulty where all the blue notes were Kaito and all red notes were Meiko! I also hope they do stuff like that again, it's very neat (and makes the game easier)

[@diamondn1nja775]

As a Puyo AND Project Diva fan, I will explain. But you can ignore this. Dark Prince *is* the correct name. In European and American games anyway. In Japanese, his name is literally Satan. I think in the American-translated version of Puyo Puyo (the first one, where the translation was HORRIBLE) his name is Satan too. All of this, and it's weird how Kaito gets that... Arle for Miku makes sense (protagonist POWER) because yes. I'm actually really glad there are some puyo references in this video.

In Kagerou Daze, depending on if you get the chance time at the beginning, the PV will change! The notes are also only circle (red) and x (blue) in a reference to the original PV! Also, in Nice to Meet You, Mr. Earthling, that little tower that has the flashing three dots at the beginning seems to be based off of the Tower of the Sun in Osaka! The mountain in the background is also most likely Mt. Fuji. Miku also held a performance of Online Game Addicts Sprechor in Phantasy Star Online 2; the game the PV features! In Hello, Worker, the name and photo on the application change depending on which Vocaloid you use! In When First Love Ends, the advertisement banner behind Miku at the very beginning says the title in Italian!

My favorite thing about the pso2 setting in MMORPG addict’s anthem is not only her outfit bein one that exists in game but also the stage she performs it on is the stage in the shopping area of pso2 where concerts are often held. And on top of that, occasionally the ones performing will be Miku and Luka (the song they sing is called Living Universe and is in English and it’s neat but I’d love to have this particular song be sung sometimes, that’d be cool but likely impossible)

[@Pluvillion]

I want to add the star links in F2nd! They form various images that are related to the song! They're usually present in the Extreme charts. For example, in the beginning of Glory 3usi9, the number *"39"* makes yet another appearance. In Cantarella ~grace edition~, the links form a crown (or the thing Miku's holding [poison container???]). In the intro of Kokoro, they form a heartbeat line. In Rasetsu to Mukuro, they form the foxes (on HARD iirc). In Kagerou Daze, after the first chorus, they form infinite symbols. In DECORATOR, they form stars. In Miku Miku Ni Shite Ageru, they form leeks. In Suki Kirai, they form hearts. In Yubikiri, during the instrumental break (where fast scenes of the two performers play out), one of the links form an "↑" which supposedly references the umbrellas. In A Thousand Year Solo, they form what sorta looks like Kaito's guitar. These are the songs that I remember having them. I don't usually remember charts unless I'm doing them repetitively to get a very specific module (Trickster from playing Miracle Paint 5 times for example). Lemme know if I missed a song.
