Project Sekai Iceberg - Part 1

[@tsunpie]

tsukasa also says "welcome to the fucking circus" in law-evading rock

[@lx2312]

Other servers also get better and more frequent rewards. I don’t know why this is for most games I’ve played, but EN servers are always worse.

[@sleeping_sword]

I play in JP version too, definitely notice the difference. Not sure why that is the case though 😞

[@BettyElle-M46]

Ever heard of Taiwan server?

[@sleeping_sword]

What goes on there lol, I think they had special holiday stamps once? That’s all I know

[@fluffyfre]

Idk I only play JP but ik that TW and KR are managed by a different company (Nuverse or whatever these guys are). In terms of a difference in JP and EN, no clue btw wtf went wrong there except pure ineptitude.

[@sqwurrx]

JP server is definitely the spoiled child that gets all the gifts, literally i dont make the rules

[@sleeping_sword]

Len’s line is heard at the end of ego rock.

[@ma.2089]

I recommend checking out TV tropes for some other info about the fandom in its early days. Like how they apparently hated Nene

[@sleeping_sword]

Oh thank you for reminding me that exists. How can someone hate nene???

[@suzumelovespjsk]

Nene is actually one of the most relatable,but people think shes a pick me and annoying​@@sleeping_sword

[@takebacktheholyland9306]

I think the best, bad mixing example (for VBS) was in-game "Bring it on" and "Daylight Frontline", not that I personally believe they are, but they were definitely thrown shade I think ready steady was more hated because of how unbalanced the line distribution was between the Vivids and Bad Dogs,

[@sleeping_sword]

I’ve heard people say bad stuff about them all 🤭 I use vs vocals so I can’t really say. Daylight Frontline sounded nice to me though 👊

[@Therealfuturestar]

Im a sucker for a pjsk iceberg video, glad i found this one! This is really well made, cant wait to see the rest of the layers covered (also p.s. the mizuki layer was well done, the "mizuki is mizuki" part got to me in a good way. Seriously need more people like you in the community lol)

[@sleeping_sword]

Thank you for the kind words 🤭 I was worried about the Mizuki part since people can be sensitive about the topic

[@Therealfuturestar]

@@sleeping_sword Yw, and yah people can be like that when it comes to the whole "mizuki gender discourse" even the word alone gives me flashbacks to long arguments over it lol. Still a good job on that layer overall

[@Kirbv]

Same I love icebergs and prjsk

[@aceofhearts._.]

Ty for being so nice abt the Mizuki gender thing, sometimes people make a huge generalization and say that people "just make anything trans" or whatever, but I appreciate you saying to let people think what they want :)

[@_ShiAngel]

8:48 I love this sm omg

[@0mega-pan206]

yeah prsk has contests for other servers, the only problem is that those are ONLY for english speaking countries, when its called GLOBAL server 🤩

[@MinoriHanasatoAteAPotato]

In my opinion they could have at least gave us the story and stamp of the rmd event cause i dont like loosing lore

[@sleeping_sword]

People weren’t happy about the story too 🫢 they probably wouldn’t have added it. I’m thinking of doing a deeper dive into it.

[@aceofhearts._.]

@@sleeping_sword it was taken massively out of context, the people who were upset clearly didn't actually read the story or you would have understood why there were talking like that. Simple as. (And Nene and Emu's cards were clearly based on Studio Ghibli's princess mononoke)

[@ma.2089]

@@aceofhearts._. My biggest gripe with ppl upset at it are that so many of them are not Shinto. They can’t speak on behalf of those people. and then everyone else looks at this Japanese game with an extreme ethnocentric lens. One person who was Native American presumed it was them being targeted and was extremely upset. Hilarious considering on their page was an apology for being transphobic and racist. So many of these twitter kids are hypocrites. Luckily the Chinese cards were weren’t taken down, which makes me feel better about the chance they would cancel an event based on my culture’s cards. but I think it’s ridiculous how they’re so anal about the cards yet don’t care about the slightly racist lyrics or song MVs that are in the game. And I didn’t see anything about the slight racism in the island event cards.

[@tartigglesthegreat]

I LOVE THESE TYPES OF VIDEOS THANK U SM IVE BEEN LOOKKING FOR MORE PJSEKIS ONES

[@CHIYO_L0l]

hi :3

[@CHIYO_L0l]

I rlly like watching your vids lmao

[@duygudemir1899]

3:27 HARO! IM EMU OTORIH! EMU MEANINS SMAIRU!

[@maymalien]

Some things to add, I believe the vocaloids are called Virtual Singers instead of vocaloids because Crypton is not making vocaloid voicebanks for them anymore! They're now on their own studio called Piapro! I think they were called virtual singers bc that way it's a more universal way of saying it? There's no confirmation for that, I believe. Also, I think Emu has her own entry due to her being one of the most memed characters, especially since the "Emu is meaning smile!!!" meme was widespread even outside of the fandom :D Great video! It's nice to see an updated iceberg video! I'm looking forward to the next parts!

[@sleeping_sword]

I knew about piapro but everything else is new information to me, makes much more sense now 😄

[@eatenleek393]

There’s also the fact that sega/ craft egg only work with CRYPTON NOT YAMAHA, which owns vocaloid

[@maymalien]

​@@eatenleek393Oohh! That makes sense as to why they can't use the vocaloid name!

[@sunny_smc]

I think you should add Sun-Kun (vbs hack) to the iceberg

[@sleeping_sword]

Ooh I hear it happened to Leo/Need and I think MMJ as well, will be adding it!

[@EnnuiGoldfeld]

I love finding out of obscure information to my favorite games. This was very nice.

[@_ShiAngel]

6:55 cream school 🤨🤨

[@freePalestine-o4b]

They really should give us the event. Also the two deleted songs back. Sega why deleting stuff, that could earn you money over some stupid shi

[@Mochii2]

6:46 I had that but I could leave 😔

[@Mizuki-ul7rn]

I’m still waiting for part 2-

[@almondtofu707]

iirc tsukasa also sweared in dappou rock and maybe another song?

[@silvia_j1404]

im still wating for part 2

[@MinoriHanasatoAteAPotato]

You are so underrated! 1+sub!

[@Ahiruru0]

9:32 what abt moonlight?

[@sleeping_sword]

I added the correction to my time stamp comment. I checked the wiki but it’s listed in romanji as ‘Gekkou’ instead of ‘Moonlight’, which is why I missed it.

[@Ahiruru0]

@@sleeping_sword I didn't see the comment, sorry :')

[@sleeping_sword]

Just like I didn’t see moonlight 🙈

[@fairywinkkle7272]

Wandahoi! I joked that the opening MV was teratera and then I was right XD

[@usxinat]

Emungus

[@shuichisbetterthanyou]

About the Tsukasa - Len swear part, wasn't Ussewaa allowed as well? In my native language shut up is considering swearing I don't know about Japanese though.

[@sleeping_sword]

Ooh there’s a lot of terminology behind usseewa but it’s a kind of ruder way that comes from the word urusai to say noisy or loud. Hence why it is often translated as shut up or stfu lol. I think that is why it’s considered fine (also maybe bc it’s not in English).

[@kayshi0]

Stick to your faith event story spoiler Idk if its already there or not but would Shiho knows about Sekai since she was a child be a part of the iceberg

[@sleeping_sword]

I didn’t know about that, will check it out 🤔

[@waterized_bottle]

For the Jack entry uh... You may not like it on what he did from couple months ago.

[@Honkailmpact3rd]

the ships are worse than liking art bruh

[@waterized_bottle]

@@Honkailmpact3rd Meh I say art in my book but okay then Update: Nvm ignore the above both are worse tbh.

[@Maxine_]

What happened??

[@Honkailmpact3rd]

@@Maxine_ he just liked some people's not for children pjsk artwork on twitter cause he liked the style and people went crazy and called it drama (bro like uh what he's a grown adult let him do what he wants)

[@waterized_bottle]

@@Honkailmpact3rd Honestly, I say that the artist should be at fault here but since there's a rule where it exists, there's a nsfw ver of it in the internet then there's no denying it anyways. :/

Doesn’t moonlight have meiko?

Oops 🫢 yes it does, I completely skipped over that one ty
