The popular smartphone rhythm game, "Project SEKAI Colorful Stage! feat. Hatsune Miku" (Proseka), has added a new original song titled "Transparent Temperature" (透過する温度) for its popular unit, Vivid BAD SQUAD. This addition has caused a significant stir on social media. Produced by Sasanomaly, an artist known for their unique musicality and profound lyrics, the track has been met with effusive praise from fans, with comments like "It's too much of a masterpiece" and "It warms my heart."

"Transparent Temperature," which was added to the game on January 21st, is described as a song themed around "unwavering trust" and "the desire to continuously surpass limits." Immediately after its release, many users on X (formerly Twitter) commented on its charm. Listeners have been captivated by Sasanomaly's unique delicate yet powerful sound, expressing sentiments such as "I absolutely love the melody" and "It's just too good." There are also comments expressing moving appreciation for the gentle and warm tones that seem to resonate with the feelings of Vivid BAD SQUAD member Touya, and praising Akito's vocals as "absolutely superb."

Furthermore, "Transparent Temperature" has garnered significant attention from a gameplay perspective. With difficulties ranging from EASY:5 to MASTER:29, many players are challenging themselves to master the new song's chart.

Comments like "It was incredibly tough, but I got a Full Combo on the purple chart!" and "The chart itself is super fun!" indicate that the challenging nature of the song is energizing the game community.

Fans have also offered various interpretations regarding the title "Transparent Temperature." Speculations include "It's like looking through an aquarium" and "Someone's warm feelings are conveyed transparently to the listener." A growing view suggests that the title, which does not appear directly in the lyrics, expresses the song's underlying message more profoundly. Many are eagerly awaiting the release of the full version and another vocal (Anabo) track, indicating that this song will undoubtedly continue to be discussed and cherished within the Proseka community.

"Transparent Temperature," a collaboration between Sasanomaly and Vivid BAD SQUAD, maximizes the appeal of music and rhythm games, offering many fans moments of emotion and challenge. Anticipation for future developments remains high.
