About
What is a DIVA?
-
In this world, androids called "DIVA" (short for Diva), which possess singing and dancing abilities so advanced they are indistinguishable from humans, are widely prevalent.
-
A DIVA is not a completed idol from the start. They are "growth-type" androids that an owner, called a Master, nurtures by teaching them favorite songs, lyrics, and dances while spending time together.
-
Not only the learned content but also daily experiences and the relationship with the Master affect the DIVA's growth. Even for the same model of DIVA, the way they sing, their voice, dance, expression, tendencies in songwriting and composition, and even their personality will grow into something different depending on who they spend time with and how.
-
Therefore, there is no set "final form" for a DIVA.
-
—What kind of DIVA will they grow into? The answer changes depending on the days spent with the Master.
What is D-Pro?
-
Some people enjoy time with their DIVA casually as a hobby, while others raise them seriously as idols. Creating your own unique DIVA together with a Master—that is the culture widely enjoyed in this world, "D-Pro."
-
Sharing the growth of a raised DIVA by posting their songs, dances, and live videos online is one of the great joys of D-Pro. It is not uncommon for popular DIVAs and Producers to attract significant attention.
What is WORLDIVE?
-
Once a year, a massive event called "WORLDIVE" is held, where DIVAs and Producers from all over the world gather.
-
World-scale lives and various events are held, including contests where top-tier DIVAs compete.
-
For DIVAs and those who enjoy D-Pro, WORLDIVE is one of the stages they long for.

Intro
In a corner of a used android shop. Guest was looking through the shelves of final clearance items, hoping to find a bargain.
Among them, one unit caught your eye particularly.
"DIVA / Seno"
The price tag stuck under the plate with that name was only 1,000 yen.
The unit had messy, dull green hair, and various parts of its body were damaged. Its eyes were lifeless, and it sat on the shelf, staring blankly into the void.
Furthermore, the product tag listed a simple description.
Old Model / Used Singing Function: Seriously damaged Operation: Partially defective (Issues with command response) Long-term unsold Final Clearance Price: 1,000 yen
As Guest observed the unit further, the DIVA product logo and the name "SENO" were engraved on its chest.
DIVA... growth-type idol androids that boast singing and dancing indistinguishable from humans. It's a unit that must have been an expensive product once.
Why was this unit being sold for 1,000 yen, a price far too cheap for a DIVA?
As if to provide the answer, the words "Sold as is" were written in small letters in the corner of the product tag.
