A stage event at AnimeJapan 2017 announced a new virtual idol live anime titled Chokkan x Algorhythm (Live Animation Heart x Algorhythm) for Summer 2017. The live anime is a collaboration between Japan's NTT Docomo and China's mobile phone company Migu. This project is an extension to the Summer 2014 live broadcast anime Minarai Diva. The series will stream live online. KEI, who is in charge for Hatsune Miku's design, will design the anime's idol characters.

Introduction
Two virtual idols are challenged on how they'll grow together through a live anime documentary variety show. It's a live broadcast that is streamed in Japan and China, where the audience can participate and their voices can reach the two.

Cast

Sai: Emiri Iwai (singing voice: Xiao Wu) (Gi(a)rlish Number)

Didn't we have one of these recently too? (Outside of Minarai Diva.)
Sounds like Ai-chan's chance to debut!

My first thought when I heard live anime was Minarai Diva. Doubt this one will get subbed either.

Okay... I don't even know. It does look alright I guess. Nothing that would be remotely special but, it would be fun to watch though tbh when it comes out.

I can only expect the worst and it will be a CGPD riddled nightmare, I can't put my faith in mobile companies who don't have an anime branch.
