I really never thought I'd make writing this! I always thought the franchise was doomed to be a one hit wonder!
It'll get a reveal in just over 6 days, but trust me I've checked, that it the same font as the hand timers on the countdown.

All of my yes! Now I just need to finish the first one in 6 days... Challenge accepted.
Also, the music sort of seems like a give a way as well since it matches the TWEWY style, IMO.
So glad this is getting a sequel, though.

The music does match TWEWY, the deal would have been sealed though if they added lyrics, as I think TWEWY is the only game that does that in gameplay that I know of.

Minor Update
It's just come to my attention that the games web adress contains "Subaseka", and the name of the Japanese version of TWEWY is Subarashiki kono Sekai.
This is practically confirmed now.

Went back to the site, and as it turns out, they change the OSTs so there are different ones on different days.
Today's theme actually has parts of an existing TWEWY theme, but I can't remember which one it was for the life of me. x_x
So... gonna say that the music actually helped confirm that it will be a TWEWY game.

Calling is such a nice song.Catchy too.But my favorite one is Someday. I really hope they make some kind of Remix with Someday,and use it as a boss fight theme.

Why would SE misslead us like that, didn't they know what this would look like?!?
For all we know it may just be getting released as a celebration for the unveiling of a sequel, but the chances are very slim. How is TWEWY even going to run on iOS anyway, the two man gameplay system seems near unplayable to me on iOS.

Okay, that's just a pain. I was really hoping for a sequel.
I won't say it's not going to happen, just lost faith in it now.

We really should wait before we start hating, for all we know it is a side announcement. It's possible that they are releasing it on iOS to get more fans, they same way they did with Dream Drop Distance, they may be building hype for a sequel.

Even if they make it an iOS game, they could still make it for handhelds. They did that with KH:Connect, so they could easily do the same for it.
And it could be, as said already, a side game. I don't see the point of making a website just for an iOS game, honestly.

The iOS game is a port of the DS game, so the KH: Connect argument doesn't work.

Well, no sequel, it is purely a iOS port. It's not all bad though. It's called the "Solo Edition", and it seems to only rely on Neku's combat, rather than Shiki, Joshua or Beat which I think is an improvement (I just found myself button mashing). Also the soundtrack has been remixed and it is now HD which I think looks amazing.
I do find it hilarious however that Square has actually disabled comments on the Youtube video. They obviously knew what would be said.

They disabled the comments? That is priceless. XD
Still kind of sad that there is no sequel, but hey, maybe the fan response will make Squeenix rethink it.

After today, I believe this to be true.
There was an added cutscene at the end of the port verison of TWEWY, which shows Neku removing his headphones, and someone picking up another pair.
Then it went to a screenshot of a girl with Neku styled headphones and Mr. Mew with the words "New 7 Days" on a giant tower with "104" at the top.
Gonna say that girl is the next main protagonist, but I'm still confused as to why she has the headphones and Mr. Mew...
Gonna laugh if she is Neku/Shiki's daughter or their crazed fangirl.

Major Spoilers from the first third of TWEWY, do not read until you meet Joshua.
Spoiler:
The Shiki we see is not what Shiki looks like, her looks was her forfeit. We never actually get a good look at Shiki's real appearance, but we get a glimpse. She has short brown hair and glasses, but it also looks possible that she has changed along with her personality, to become the person you see before you.
