On January 15, 2017 a 4chan user, later named Tsuki, began a thread anguishing about his "daydream world telling him to die before August 28"<ref>https://desuarchive.org/r9k/thread/34157760/</ref>. Other anonymous posters asked him questions about his situation, which he answered them, remarking that "they're comfy and it feels good to have others talk about your daydreams".

He made two other threads on January 20 and 26 respectively. In both threads, he was mocked by doubters<ref>https://desuarchive.org/r9k/thread/34427161/#q34428439</ref> and asked questions by believers<ref>https://desuarchive.org/r9k/thread/34305385/#q34306529</ref> - themes that would repeat throughout the history of the Project.

It was in the latter thread that he first began to call himself Tsuki<ref>https://desuarchive.org/r9k/thread/34427161/#q34435689</ref>.
The first thread in which Tsuki asked for others to "leave your world behind for a better one" was on January 29. When a user expressed interest in doing so, Tsuki instructed the user to draw a picture which included a code<ref>https://desuarchive.org/r9k/thread/34492368/#34492510</ref>. Tsuki declared that all users who signed up would "be transported as long as you die any time after 1st of Jul, 2017. Dying of old age included, but suicide also included. Dying before the set date will cause your EID to be reset, cancelling the transfer"<ref>https://desuarchive.org/r9k/thread/34492368/#q34495633</ref>, and stated that he was "hoping for maybe 25-50 people in total, and we [he and the corporations he represented] have until Jul 1st to recruit."<ref>https://desuarchive.org/r9k/thread/34492368/#q34502119</ref> He was pleasantly surprised that there were "so many requests it doesn't fit on one A4"<ref>https://desuarchive.org/r9k/thread/34492368/#34518205</ref>, and the thread closed with over 400 replies.
The TSUKI Project alleged that by joining the website, the users called migrants, would transfer from Life (our present system) to LFE, the next system once they died, but warned users to not commit suicide.
