On March 19, 2022, the official BanG Dream! Twitter account announced two CeVIO AI Song Voice libraries to be developed for Toyama Kasumi and Minato Yukina. They were announced for a 2022 release with further details to be announced at a later date.[1] On June 9, the official BanG Dream Twitter account announced that information regarding the CeVIO AI x BanG Dream! project would be discussed during the "BanG Dream!

On June 23, Toyama Kasumi's Song Voice was officially revealed under the new name "POPY" while Minato Yukina's CeVIO Song Voice was known as "ROSE".[4] A promotional teaser video was released and an official story-writing contest was launched through monogatary.com with the intent of creating stories of newborn girls playing an active role under the theme of "Yumenokessho" (夢ノ結唱), which is also the title of the CeVIO AI project. The story that is selected for the grand prize would be made into a song by VOCALOID producer Kemu. A second contest, the "Drawing King Grand Prix" was also announced to be held in autumn 2022 with the theme of the created song. A music video featuring all participants would be produced following the contest.[5][6]
