Hiroyuki Itoh: The privilege to have Hatsune Miku read out your name in the end roll credits at the end of the
concert was also quite popular at the online concert. "MIKU EXPO" returned to real concerts this
year, but online concerts have qualities of their own, and I think it would be fun to plan another
online concert with the fans someday.
- Finally, please tell us about your outlooks and hopes for the future!
Hiroyuki Itoh: "MIKU EXPO" was started to spread the creative culture carried by Hatsune Miku not only in
Japan but also throughout the world. 10 years have passed, and I am very proud that we have been
able to hold "MIKU EXPO" in many countries and regions. The world has changed a lot in 10 years.
During that time we had the COVID pandemic, and our lifestyles have changed as well. In the next 10
years, I think the world will probably change even more, but I hope that MIKU EXPO will continue to
aim for a world where people around the world can express themselves and understand each other
through Miku and her friends. There are still many places in the world where MIKU EXPO could go, so
I would be happy if people would continue to follow the activities of MIKU EXPO.
Guillaume Devigne: I was lucky enough to be involved in the overseas development of Hatsune Miku since the
beginning of "MIKU EXPO," and although I have now left the overseas licensing business for the
system department two years ago, I still sincerely hope that "MIKU EXPO" continues to bring
enjoyable experiences to everyone around the world. I would like to continue to contribute in
different ways, such as lending a hand in organizing sub-events in the future.
Miyu Fuse: “MIKU EXPO” is supported by all Hatsune Miku surrounding cultures, which means fans and
creators all over the world. Our team will keep working hard to bring “MIKU EXPO” around the world,
so that everyone can get together and have fun. We will likely go through many trials and errors to
improve, and try to reach those areas that we have never been to, to let “Hatsune Miku continue to
sing across an ever-changing world.” The 10th anniversary year has just started, so stay tuned for
future events!
- Thank you, all!
