Viewsic (now known as MUSIC ON TV! or M-ON!) is a Japanese music cable network created by M-ON Entertainment. As the name suggests, it’s a music charting service/program based on sales, request, karaoke request, things from that nature.
During December 1999 to January 2000, a special event was broadcasted called “Viewsic Annual Countdown 100” which allegedly featured Vibri from the PS1 rhythm game, Vib-Ribbon as one of the hosts for this special.[1][2]
Background
Viewsic used to air a series of programs called “Viewsic Countdown 20” in 1999-2004. In the December 1999 edition, it introduced the top 100 songs on the year. Though in the special, people allegedly saw Vibri from Vib-Ribbon presenting the first 80 songs, while the top 20 songs are instead presented by Masashi Tashiro and Chiaki Fujimoto mentioned by the Japanese Wikipedia page for Viewsic.[3] From Japanese blogpost that survived from the time, all mentioned that Vibri allegedly appeared on the broadcast. One blogpost talks about how Mr.Matsuura (the creator of Vib-Ribbon) chose the music and the screen from Vib-Ribbon was playing all the time, quote:
前に書き込んだ Viewsicの朝早い番組は、やっぱりいろんな人が選曲した曲を2時間延々と流す番組のようです。 松浦さんの選曲のときは、ビブリボンの画面がずっと流れてました。 変なこと書き込んですみません。。。 ピブリボンのデザインをなさった「松浦季里」さんって、松浦さんの奥様なんですね。 けっこう、いろんなとこで見かけたので、関像あるのかなあって思ってたんです。 すっきりしました♪
Next quote is the translation:
Viewsic's early morning program that I wrote before seems to be a program that endlessly broadcasts songs selected by various people for 2 hours.
At the time of Mr. Matsuura's song selection, the screen of the vib ribbon was playing all the time.
I'm sorry for writing strange things...
"Kisato Matsuura" who designed the Vib-Ribbon is Mr. Matsuura's wife. I saw it in a lot of places, so I was wondering if there was a barrier statue.
I feel refreshed♪[1]
Availability
On a fandom article claims that a YouTube video showed footage of the broadcast but was taken down by M-ON!, but nobody knows if this is true.
As of December 2023, no footage of the broadcast has resurfaced except for one singular photo from March 2020.
