Uchikoshi Says TooKyo Could "Crash Into a Million Pieces" After Cancellation

Zero Escape and The Hundred Line co-creator Kotaro Uchikoshi has raised concerns about the future of his studio, TooKyo Games, after the cancellation of its next game. In a tweet, he said the company "might literally crash into a million pieces." The source material does not say which project was cancelled or why, so the scale of the setback is hard to judge from the post alone.

Uchikoshi moved quickly to soften the message. In a follow-up tweet, he said he is still part of TooKyo Games and has not fallen out with fellow co-founder Kazutaka Kodaka. Kodaka added his own light-hearted take, joking that he "may have fallen in love" with Uchikoshi. He said the two are close enough to have pajama parties at each other's houses, sipping strawberry milk boba together.

The exchange is a reminder of how fast a single post can shift the story. The cancellation is the real news here, and the reporting gives no detail on how far the project had progressed or whether TooKyo is under financial pressure. For now, the clearest read is that the partnership is intact and that the dramatic line was a reaction to a setback, not an announcement of a split. Fans will likely be watching for any statement from the studio about what comes next.
