Robin is a name attached to three currently active projects: the tactical shooter POLYSTRIKE, which passed 10,000 Steam wishlists in under three weeks; an MV pairing Hatsune Miku with Robin from Honkai: Star Rail, released September 5; and the second live-action season of Love is Better the Second Time Around, in which Robin Furuya reprises his role.
Recent coverage of Robin is not about one person. The name appears on a top-down 5v5 tactical shooter called POLYSTRIKE, a Dota 2 custom game rebuilt as a standalone title on Unreal Engine 5, which passed about 10,000 Steam wishlist registrations in less than three weeks after its announcement. The game has drawn attention from Japan, where it ranked third by country at one point, prompting the developer to add Japanese language support and plan Japan-set maps.
Robin also appears as a character in HoYoverse's Honkai: Star Rail, paired with Hatsune Miku in an official YouTube MV titled Summer Sky Medley: Tell Your World x Just Chasing the Wind. The MV interweaves their voices and was released September 5. A special message video from Miku to Robin was posted on X.
Separately, Robin Furuya is a cast member of the live-action series Love is Better the Second Time Around, based on Keiko Kinoshita's manga. The series returns for a second season on September 1, an original story set two years after the first, with Furuya reprising his role alongside Makoto Hasegawa.
