GIVE US FULL REFUNDS. We should've known it was a TV. Miku Expo 2024 NA (OFFICIAL)

Miku expo 2024 is off to a truly awful start but I haven't seen any posts on here detailing the mess. So here we go, here's what's happened so far.

I will be linking some posts and threads from Twitter and will update this post as need be.

4/8 edits are in blue

**PLEASE DO NOT comment or send me DMs complaining about the setlist**

**Rather than tweet complaints at the Miku Expo twitter account, it may be best to email CFM and/or Crunchyroll directly.**

🎵 First up, ticket presales.

This year the expo was sponsored by Crunchyroll and ticket presales were only supposed to be available to those that had a Crunchyroll subscription. Those that qualified were emailed a link to presale. However, when that link was inevitably leaked to the public, it turned out anyone could buy presales because it wasn't a one-time link or linked in any way to verify your subscription

Additionally, VIP tickets are supposed to give the holder early access to the venue and merch tables, but I'm hearing that this is not being honored.

🎵 Merch

Higher prices and lower stock than usual. This is especially frustrating for the lightstick.

The only lightsticks that are allowed inside these venues are ones made for the event or ones from past vocaloid concerts. This is because other lightsticks are too bright and will reflect on the hologram screen. But what with the stocks being so low, many people can't even get these lightsticks.

🎵 so about that screen

The biggest news to come out about Miku expo 2024 is that they arent using the hologram screen. The Vancouver and Portland concerts have used an LED screen.

This was neither advertised nor communicated from CFM or Crunchyroll to the public.

This also makes the prohibiting of outside lightsticks redundant, as they won't interfere with an LED screen.

An LED screen is much cheaper to use than the transparent screen used for the holograms. And a lot of folks are pointing out the discrepancies between this and the higher ticket and merch prices.

The LED screen is also a lot more noticeable and out of place, it hasn't been blended well on the stage so far. Views from further back and the sides are not looking great.

The Miku Expo team have stated that the Vancouver show was filmed officially. Seeing as the LED screen was also used in Portland, we can reasonably assume the LED has nothing to do with the filming.

Fans are speculating that the reason the Miku Expo team have prohibited photos and videos at this year's expo is to hide the fact that an LED screen is being used for multiple concerts.

There's also speculation that the hologram screen is in CA in preparation for Coachella, where Miku is meant to preform on the 13th and 20th of April. Please note that this is just speculation, we have no way atm to confirm this.

Additionally, I personally would recommend not getting your hopes up about the hologram screen replacing the LED one for any concerts after Coachella. Seeing as neither Crunchyroll or CFM have communicated or addressed any of the complaints yet, we may just be stuck with the LED for the whole tour.

🎵 the doujin goods incident at Vancouver

Please refer to this thread for the full info, but here is a summary:

The Miku Expo team refused to let a fan distribute free doujin goods despite this fan getting prior permission from CFM to do so. An individual also took this fan's miku cutout, though I believe it was returned later.

🎵 there is still a live band

I figured I'd clear this up since I've seen some mild miscommunication on it. There is a live band, just not the usual band they have for Miku concerts. This is not at all an issue, and in fact I've heard nothing but good things about the live band. I figured I'd bring it up for information's sake.

Honestly, kudos to them killing it on stage in the midst of the mess.

🎵 Someone allegedly pissed on the floor at either the Vancouver or Portland show

I have. no words. what the fuck dude.

If anyone can find the original tweet(s) claiming this, please link them to me. I'm not rooting through vocatwt to find the piss tweets.

🎼Concluding notes

It's been 6 years since Miku expo has come overseas. The 2020 tour was cancelled due to covid and Miku expo 2024 is it's 10th anniversary. This was supposed to be a big deal, a huge comeback tour for NA!!

However, due to absolute abysmal planning on Crunchyroll and CFM's parts, Miku expo has been a massive disappointment for many fans so far.

I know I'm nervous for when I go in May, but I want to try and end this on a more positive note.

Vocaloid has, first and foremost, always been about the music and the community. It's undeniable that we as fans have been mistreated by CFM and Crunchyroll here This is not the concert tour we deserve, but I'm sure we can still find things to enjoy.

Hearing vocaloid songs live has always been a dream of mine, and for the first time in my life I'll be surrounded in person by folks who love vocaloid as much as I do. I couldn't even fathom being in this situation back in the early days of vocaloid, being a little kid listening to Melt and World is Mine for the very first time.

I'm absolutely still angry about how the expo has been handled, but I still want to enjoy what I can, being with folks who share that same passion.

There are plenty of fans on twitter detailing the fun time they had at the shows so far. If you do end up going, you can absolutely still have fun too!!

i made this last year and just uncovered it from my drive like a time capsule

the way how i drew the pokemon tickle me a lot like why did i do that

the problem with autism is sometimes you want to do something (brave) but you need someone to gently walk you through each step so you know what will happen. and people don’t like doing that

This sounds exactly like my friend

I know Coyle is a shrimpy boy but he’s still like a good 5-6 inches taller than me and that works for me😏

I just know he could yeet me across the room and break my back 🥐

I would pull out all the tricks in the book for him: Gluck Gluck 3000, kegal squeezes, throwing it back, etc. He wouldn’t even know what hit him.

I just know this man would have a cock the size of a subway footlong and eat pussy like his life depends on it.

I even love his crispy side, he’s PERFECT AND BEAUTIFUL. He has such a way with words😳🥵 I want to carry his child; a little baby Coyle 🧎🏻‍♀️‍➡️I’m just being insane now.

I’m sure homie would be the type to just nut in you and I’m all about it. I want to be leaking his cum like a damn snail all day 😮‍💨

I’ve never had a crush on a fictional character before so this is a new experience for me. Liking someone I can’t just have. So in a way it’s kind of heartbreaking? Sounds stupid but MY HEART AND PUSSY ACHE FOR HIM.

Rip Leland, you would have loved bubblegum flavored vapes 😘

Thank you for attending another one of my Ted Talks :)
