Welcome to the world of WORLDISTA.



"KKMT0915" = Koyama + Kato + Masuda + Tegoshi + 15 September

15 September = NEWS Formation Day

If this is only in the "Beta" stage, does that mean the "S" album will be the final and completed release of this programme/game? If so, what will the "S" album be called? "S" is also mentioned inside the next song, "WORLDISTA".

2. Orientation

WORLDISTA is different from all the VR up till now, this is a new entertainment system where your consciousness is directly connected to the virtual space.

There is no concept of time and space in the world of WORLDISTA.

Here, you can experience many different types of games such as action, role playing, racing, solving mysteries, quiz, romance, and you can move freely in this world.

There are not only games, you can also experience worlds like the space travel of EPCOTIA and even surreal worlds like NEVERLAND.

You can hold events like Christmas parties everyday, and then experience a Valentine's event a few hours after.

And, you can also become any character.

Furthermore, you can also game with NEWS' members.

For orientation, let's first start by racing NEWS' members in a space race.

The first person to make it to the goal will receive a message from NEWS' members.

So, the game starts!



We have a romance game called "NEWS ni Koishite", so is this game included in the world of WORLDISTA? Is this game represented by "Digital Love" or "Ribbon"?

There is a Quiz Zone in this album.

"DEAD END" and "CASINO DRIVE" definitely speak to my racing-loving spirit.

"Invisible Dungeon" seems to me to be a role playing game that involves solving mysteries. I may be wrong. XD

"FIGHTERS.COM" is asking me to play it because I love playing action (fighting) games.

The next songs are "DEAD END", "CASINO DRIVE" and "Invisible Dungeon".

3. First Checkpoint

You have passed the first checkpoint. You who have passed it earlier than anyone else will be given a present of 5000 bowery. Your rank depends on the amount of bowery you have.

The member topping the ranking will be given the right to enter the WORLDISTA CUP. Let's continue playing games with us. This is the next game.

Accessing E-Sports Zone.



The next songs are "SPIRIT", "BLUE" and "FIGHTERS.COM". Makes sense because they all are related to something that requires the use physical strength.

4. Product Launch

Today is a day I've been anticipating for fifteen years.

A day that we are announcing something more than just a product, it is a dream.

I'm thrilled that you are gathered here to share in this significant moment.

Once in a great while, there's an innovation that transforms our world.

Neo Electronic Wonder State Inc. has been fortunate enough to have created nine such innovations.

Nine.

And today, we are here to announce number ten.

A traditional limitation with VR headsets is that we have been forced to experience virtual aspirations through primarily visual stimuli.

We've been unable to really feel the environment we're in.

A product that dives directly into your consciousness.

Our product synchronises with your brain though your ears, allowing you to experience the full range of sensation you have in the physical world.

You are here to witness the beginning of a global phenomenon built for the world by Japan.

Allow me to present.. WORLDISTA!



Fifteen years = 2019 is NEWS' 15th anniversary

Neo Electronic Wonder State = NEWS

Inc. = "Love" because it starts with "i" and it is pronounced as "ai" in Japanese which means the character for "love"

So, Neo Electronic Wonder State Inc. = NEWS LOVE

Nine = Nine albums before WORLDISTA. Nine members in the first version of NEWS.

Ten = WORLDISTA is NEWS' tenth album

The Japanese dub is done by Otsuka Houchuu, the voice actor for Jiraiya-sensei in NARUTO. Jiraiya-sensei's birthdate is 11 November.

The next song is "Digital Love". Which makes total sense because they're telling us how much they love us in this interlude. I'm sure you can interpret this interlude and understand why I said this, can't you? 😉

5. (at the end of) Digital Love

Congratulations.

You have received 718 bowery.



718 = 18 July = The day Chankapaana was released, a significant date that marks NEWS' comeback as a 4-member group

The next song is "Ribbon". Which makes total sense again because they are showing how much they love us by telling us that they decided to come back for us on 18 July 2012.

6. Quiz

You have entered the WORLDISTA Quiz Zone.

Here, the questions will be related to NEWS and we will have you answering them with the members.

Today's participants are Kato-san and Tegoshi-san from NEWS.

And you who are here.

So, the first question. When was NEWS first announced?

15 September 2003.

Correct.

Second question. What is NEWS' 6th album?

QUARTETTO!

Such a pity. Incorrect.

So, third question. What was the single NEWS released on 18 July 2012?

Chankapaana.

Correct.

Fourth question. Among NEWS' song titles, which word related to seasons has not been used yet?

Christmas.



Quiz Host = Mr. Impossible! This confirms for a second time that NEVERLAND definitely is inside the world of WORLDISTA.

6th album = White. However, Shige answered "QUARTETTO", which is the 7th album, so confidently. By right, Shige would not make this mistake. So this leads to whether White is included in the world of WORLDISTA or not. However, the PV for WORLDISTA features Tegoshi arriving in a lift with manual doors, so.. White is included? Or no?

The next songs are "Christmas Without Santa", "Strawberry" and "IKIRO". They're telling us to live on because they love us and we've been together for fifteen years.

7. Ending

Congratulations.

You have received 20120718 bowery.

You have been chosen as one of the members of the WORLDISTA CUP.

While playing the game, you have already noticed it, haven't you?

That bowery is not merely virtual currency for getting items.

Yes, this is your energy.

You can enter the WORLDISTA CUP because you have this energy.

NEWS' members are also looking forward to participating in the event with you.

So till then, farewell.

Oh! I nearly forgot.

We have one. More. Thing.

As a special appreciation, your pamphlets contain an important clue regarding information for the upcoming WORLDISTA CUP.

It's in the first version of the pamphlet.

Please check it for a secret message.

Once again, thank you all for joining us for this moment of appreciation!



20120718 = 18 July 2012 = The day Chankapaana was released, a significant date that marks NEWS' comeback as a 4-member group

WORLDISTA CUP = NEWS LIVE TOUR 2019 WORLDISTA

Bowery = energy we gain by listening to this album, WORLDISTA, in its entirety in order to attend the "WORLDISTA CUP"

Important clue = I have not opened my Limited Edition CD, so I really don't know ;_;

First version of the pamphlet = Does this mean that the Regular Edition CD pamphlet has no secret message?

The secret message can be seen by using the 3D Glasses included in the Limited Edition CD.

I can only guess the reason why they chose "bowery" as the virtual currency. My guess is that because the original meaning is like a cooling little place to rest, bowery in this album acts like a breather for us listeners to get our energy back from the hectic daily life.

For both interludes that have the English-speaker, I listened to them countless of times to get 90% of the original English words written down on this page. The 10% really eluded me because of the Japanese dub so I replaced them with words that fit into the original sentences.
