- "An eccentric musical show unit, proclaiming each day wonderful and rushing out to meet it head on."
- ―Profile
Wonderlands x Showtime, often abbreviated to WxS and Wandasho (ワンダショ, Wondershow), is a musical show unit formed by four part-time actors who perform on the Wonder Stage in Phoenix Wonderland.

Background
After failing his audition, Tenma Tsukasa is hired by Otori Emu to return the Phoenix Wonderland Stage to its former glory with incredible performances. The two actors recruit stage director and roboticist Kamishiro Rui and shy singer Kusanagi Nene, along with her robot replica Nene-Robo.
While Emu tries to convince Tsukasa to join the Phoenix Wonderland troupe, Tsukasa discovers a song named "Untitled" on his phone. Upon playing it, the two are transported to SEKAI. There, the pair meet Hatsune Miku, KAITO, and the plushies they perform with.
SEKAI
Tsukasa's SEKAI, the Wonderland SEKAI, is a theme park world filled with fantastical encounters, like singing flowers and walking stuffed animals — forgotten creations made by a young Tsukasa for his sister, Saki, a long time ago. Onstage, troupe leader KAITO and his helper Hatsune Miku put on elaborate shows to help the group discover their true feelings.
There are many sentient plushies that can be found throughout the SEKAI. In particular, one of the stuffed animals is a bunny plushie from Saki's childhood. There is also a pair of cat and dog stuffed animals who often bicker but usually make up in the end. In the It's On! Wonder Halloween! event, the argument between the cat and dog seems to mirror the conflict with Rui and Tsukasa in real life.[1][2]
In Keep It Steady, Let’s Aim for the Star!, Wonderlands x Showtime and the VIRTUAL SINGERS discover a new part of the SEKAI, which consists of a colorful port, fitted with a ship. Next to it lies a fairytale-esque town where some of the stuffed animals live, with hot air balloons, a roller coaster and a volcano that spurts out pink clouds. Just like in the rest of the SEKAI, sentient plushies inhabit this part of the SEKAI, some with their own personal conflicts that mirror conflicts that Emu, Nene, and Rui had experienced in the past. In one of the flower pots, their sprout grows.

Trivia
- Wonderlands x Showtime and 25-ji, Nightcord de. are the only two units in which a single person (Tsukasa and Mafuyu) is responsible for the creation of their respective SEKAI. Thus, their SEKAI is filled with things related to them, though it seems that if the owner of the SEKAI allows other people to access their SEKAI, those people can also influence it as well.
- All four troupe members were inspired to become performers because of a play or concert they saw when they were young.
- Each member's surname is a reference to a legendary being: Tenma (“天馬”, pegasus), Otori (“鳳”, phoenix), Kusanagi (“草薙”, the Kusanagi sword), and Kamishiro (“神”, god).[3]
- Although they are not members of Wonderlands x Showtime, Seiryuin Sakurako and Genbu Asahi also follow this theme, their surnames referencing the Azure Dragon and the Black Tortoise.
- Wonderlands x Showtime is the only unit to have a male leader.
- Wonderlands x Showtime is the only unit that does not have a unit-focused Cheerful Carnival Event.
- The Wonderland SEKAI has existed since Tsukasa was a child. Additionally, it was also the first SEKAI out of the main five to form.[4]
