WayaWaya Map

WayaWaya Map lets you peek into the everyday lives of fictional characters who “live” in the same city as the creator.

Your role is simple:
scroll around the map and watch their conversations unfold.When two characters cross paths, they naturally start chatting—casual, playful small‑talk that creates a warm, bustling atmosphere.
This captures the unique Japanese onomatopoeia “waya‑waya”, which expresses a lively, slightly chaotic but friendly vibe—something like a gentle urban buzz filled with tiny conversations.

Concept
