REALITY Newsletter - January 2025
Hey everyone! It’s Potato from the Community Team!🥔
Love is in the air and Valentine's Day is just around the corner! (I actually think this will be released on Valentine's Day?!)
I hope everyone has some amazing plans this year to spend time with friends or your significant other, and if anyone doesn’t have a Valentine this year I’ll be sure to sub in and be your REALITY Valentine this Friday!🥰
With January and the new year, we have had a lot of new changes in REALITY so lets just hop right into it as I show you all what happened last month in the REALITY Newsletter January 2025!✨
Worlds
■ EXPO 2025 Virtual Osaka Pavilion Begins!
The EXPO 2025 Virtual Osaka Pavilion will be opening in advance of Osaka EXPO 2025!
This World is the official virtual pavilion of the Osaka Healthcare Pavilion, which will be hosting exhibits from Osaka Prefecture and other areas in the real-world Osaka EXPO 2025. The environment envisions a "Future Osaka", where you can enjoy exhibits from participating companies and multiplayer attractions. There also seems to be a secret area hidden within this refined pavilion?!
Also, beginning in April, there will be virtual live shows, original stories, and other events and content that users can participate in! 📅

I'm DJ RIO, REALITY's CEO!🦊🤘
It's finally the new year so I want to look back and announce the best 3 things I purchased in 2024!
Although it starts off as a situation-based sitcom-style gag-based romance comedy, and it does that very well, as you progress through the story the foundation for a larger more engaging story comes to light, and by the end, I was truly moved by some of the story beats. Even though it seems to be just a simple slice-of-life manga, it is so much more.
While it includes many of the more standard love comedy themes like unrequited love, friendship, and love triangles, it adds so much more with its takes on oshi and otaku culture, and without missing a beat ramps the story into a moving climax that ends in a bittersweet but complete way after the characters’ three years in high school.
It was a masterpiece with nothing to add or remove.
I’m sure everyone else understands, but when you spend 16 hours a day using REALITY, your smartphone starts to get covered in fingerprints.
Of course, you would never want to cover up your oshi’s perfect face with your own cloudy fingerprints, so I would use a handkerchief or my clothing to wipe my screen, but I experienced a revolution in my screen-wiping life.
The Wipe Wipe Glasses Cleaner is, as its name would imply, a wipe to clean your fingerprints, but it’s also perfect for cleaning your smartphone screen. It has an alcohol base so it takes care of fingerprints easily, but has a low moisture content so there are no droplets left on your screen. With one wipe your screen looks as good as new.
Now I have a pack at the office, at home, and in my bag, and I’m having a great time enjoying my new screen-wiping life.
That’s it for me and I hope all of you have a great year in 2025!
Hello! It's your international community manager, Thomas, here.
Long time without talking to everyone, so I'm glad to be writing here again. 😆
As you guys know, we have a monthly safety magazine called Transparency Report and you can find a lot of information there about what kind of penalties were distributed lately, what is against the rules, and what can be penalized (you can also find that in the Privacy Policy, Terms of Use, Attention and Disclaimers and Community Guidelines).
The Transparency Report was not updated for some time (4 months iirc?), but the reasons are explained in the article and we will keep updating it from now on so please check it out!
The next one will probably be released in a few days too, so keep a look for it.
Thank you for always helping us make our community healthier!
