DMM VR Theater exemplifies hyper-realism and thrills your senses. Uniting the trifecta of LED, 3DCG animation and holographic projection, an illusion, that the characters are real and are performing on the stage, is created, when only the photo-images are being projected on the screen. It is a one-of-its-kind experience, and you're bowled over by the incredible phenomenon of the projections along with the terrific surround sound (sound system far more grander than the one in ordinary theaters). A show at the DMM VR Theater should not be missed for the world!
