About
TSUKI Project is an anime-themed alternate reality game which urges readers to register themselves prior to all life being "purged," allowing them to live on in a utopian cyberspace realm after death.
Origin
On January 19th, 2017, Redditor I_AM_LOST_IN_REDDIT submitted a post titled "My daydream tells me to die before 28 of August," which discussed a multi-dimensional world referred to as "systemspace" housing our current system called "Life," and how they believed they needed to commit suicide to "initialise destruction of Life."[9]
Spread
On January 26th, 2017, an anonymous 4chan user submitted a thread to /r9k/ claiming to have "a second world" in their head, and that the "system" humans reside in the "omniverse" known as "systemspace" would be run out of "Aurora" energy in the imminent future, leading to the need to create a "Systemspace 2: Rewrite" (shown below).
On January 28th, the Systemspace.link[7] URL was registered, which later encouraged viewers to register by July 1st to have their souls "moved over" to the new "LFE system" after all life is "purged" in the "Life System" (shown below). The original site has since been taken down, but a mirror was created at Systemspace.network.[8]
On March 5th, a thread was created on /r9k/ encouraging viewers to register on the systemspace.link website.[11] On March 6th, YouTuber Mirlo2hu uploaded a video about the TSUKI Project website (shown below).
On April 22nd, the ScareTheater YouTube channel uploaded a video titled "Strange Websites- Episode 2," which described the systemspace.link website.[3] The video has since been removed, but remains archived on the Wayback Machine. That same day, a thread about the TSUKI Project was submitted to the /x/ (paranoia) board on the imageboard site Arisuchan.[2]
On April 24th, Redditor SystemspaceThrowaway submitted a post referring to it as a "strange animeish cult" to the /r/cults[5] subreddit. On May 28th, the TSUKI Project Wiki was created.[6]
On November 27th, the technology news site Motherboard[4] published an article about the TSUKI Project titled "The Obscure 4chan Religion That Promises a Cyberpunk Afterlife." The article reported that "every Systemspace 'migrant'" assured the author "that it was most certainly not a game and was indeed a real belief system."
