The first pick is from the iMarine Project. If you didn't know what that is, me neither! ...okay I have to do a bit of work to earn your clicks. Our story starts from the Umi Monogatari (海物語) line of Pachinko games from Sanyo Bussan. Basically the IP owners also looks to expand into different media with the main characters of the games, and idol project is apparently one of the endpoints...? Marine Mirage is the third and final song creation of the fifth volume of the project.

At over 500 notes, Marine Mirage stands at the higher end of the ★6 spectrum in terms of volume and complexity, with phrases spanning 2 stanzas not uncommon while throwing in a healthy and fast-paced mixed of triples.


We didn't do the First Video when Tenka Touitsu Roku when it first debuted on the Tenkaichi Otogesai 5 Finals stage last week, because we only had a blurry recording from the livestream. Now that we have clearer capture footage, it's time to come back to the next shared creation between Daisuke "96" Kurosawa and Masahiro "Godspeed" Aoki.

As a follow up to Dairokuten Maou (inspired by Oda Nobunaga), Tenka Touitsu Roku is another rock-infused collaboration inspired by Toyotomi Hideyoshi (confirmed by Kurosawa). While you speculate whether there will be a third entry for Tokugawa Ieyasu, contemplate the 210-BPM long and mixed streams that managed to stay at 16ths only, and hence definitely way easier than the last entry.

Final note that today also ends the exclusivity for Asian Donders with GERBERA, Xevel and ouroboros -twin stroke of the end-, as the three songs are (finally?) made available to non-JAIA/participating arcade centers with the update.
