Just saw Colorful Stage: The Movie: A Miku Who Can’t Sing tonight. Going in, I was a total newbie to the whole thing, so the beginning was a little confusing. But, I’d say around the halfway mark, I was completely hooked, dying to know how the story would play out.

The movie’s music is really good! I’m already planning to check out a few of the featured “bands”, of which there were five: a rock band, hip-hop group, goth-lolita group, pop idol group, and an amusement park variety troupe. The goth-lolita group “Nightcord at 25:00” was my favorite. Check them out on Spotify if interested!

Oh, and for those who don’t know (like I did!), the movie is based on a rhythm game called Hatsune Miku: Colorful Stage! That’s where all the backstory and lore come from. It’s actually super interesting when you start to dig into it!

Bonus: This song was featured in the movie for a few seconds. I liked it so much I had to look it up. So good!
