A mysterious countdown on the official Twitter account for the Sister Princess franchise's 20th anniversary project has raised fans' expectations. At 12:00 p.m. on April 7 (Jst), a post with the number "12" and the hashtag #Countdown was posted on the account. As fans know, Sister Princess originally featured 12 sisters, so the number is very important for the franchise. There was no mention of "hours" or "days" with the number 12, but there was no new post at 13:00, so it may suggest that something will be announced 12 days later, on April 19. Nothing is known at this time, but Natsuko Kuwatani, the voice cast of Karen, said on Twitter , "Onii-chan, are you ready for your heart?" The Sister Princess franchise's 20th-anniversary project featuring the sisters' virtual YouTuber activities launched in September 2019 as a one-year time limited project, but thanks to the enthusiastic support of the fans, it continued much longer than originally planned.
