Kenshi Yonezu New Album Release Event: “LOST CORNER AR LIVE in HARAKADO”
An AR content featuring a virtual Kenshi Yonezu dancing through the streets of Harajuku

In celebration of the release of Kenshi Yonezu’s 6th album, “LOST CORNER,” we created the unique AR content and character design for the “LOST CORNER AR LIVE in HARAKADO,” a live experience at Tokyu Plaza Harajuku, a.k.a. “Harakado.”

“LOST CORNER AR LIVE in HARAKADO” is a five-minute AR experience in which participants can enjoy a live performance by a virtual Kenshi Yonezu dancing dynamically through the streets of Harajuku to songs such as the opening theme of the anime “Chainsaw Man,” “KICK BACK,” and the theme song of the NHK morning drama “Tora ni Tsubasa,” “Sayonara, Mata Itsuka! – Sayonara”

Teaming up with SoVeC, a part of the Sony Group, we have leveraged the advanced capabilities of Sony’s VPS technology, known for its exceptional accuracy and robustness. This enables visitors to experience an immersive environment where reality and digital content seamlessly merge.
