I\\\'ve edited out the \\\"hologram\\\" claims here. Sorry but this is not holography, nor holograms, nor holo-anything. The technology does not exist to make such complex, full-motion, full-color holograms appear in free space. It\\\'s just a movie rear-projected onto a nearly-transparent screen. Granted the movie uses \\\"3D\\\" animation (shadow-shading) techniques but that doesn\\\'t make it a hologram, any more than was Batman: The Animated Series.

In some of the videos on YouTube you can clearly see the top edge of the screen; reflections of the audiences\\\' glowsticks are visible in many more shots; the light from the projector is clearly visible, esp. directly behind the figure; in the scenes with two characters the two beams from the projector are clearly visible... and in the few angle shots they permit to show the figure is clearly trapped in the plane of the screen.

The real story here is the Vocaloid software, and the fact that apparently tens of thousands of people are paying about $50 each to go to \\\"live\\\" concert and cheer for what amounts to a cartoon.
