Overview
セカイはまだ始まってすらいない (Sekai wa Mada Hajimatte sura Inai), "The World Hasn't Even Started Yet", is a VOCALOID track originally produced for Project Sekai: Colorful Stage! feat. Hatsune Miku, the mobile rhythm game co-developed by Sega and Colorful Palette. The song was composed by the prolific VOCALOID producer PinocchioP (ピノキオピー), known for his distinctive lyrical style that often blends cheerful melodies with introspective or ironic subject matter. In Project Sekai, the song is performed by Hatsune Miku alongside the unit Wonderlands×Showtime (ワンダーランズ×ショウタイム), a troupe of theater-themed characters whose bright stage energy colors the track's delivery. The title and lyrics explore the idea that the world, or one's own story, has not yet truly begun, carrying a tone of hopeful anticipation.
The song crossed over into maimai as part of the Project Sekai collaboration content added to maimai DX UNiVERSE on October 15, 2021, and is playable across all regions (Japan, International, USA, and China). Its chart lineup spans from a beginner-friendly Basic (Lv 2) to a demanding Master (Lv 12+, constant 12.7). The Master chart, designed by 小鳥遊さん (Takanashi-san), and the Expert chart (Lv 8+, constant 8.6), designed by 翠楼屋 (Suirouya), both carry named-designer credit, a sign of curated chart quality typical for collaboration songs at higher difficulties.
