Now at 49 updates and counting. This post will be the first post until all details are known. For the latest blog entry, see the second post after this.
49. Non-HQ videos of the last 2 new Ura songs, Rinda wa Kyou mo Zekkouchou and Sport Digesdon. 598 notes and several speed up sections for the first one, 733 notes and several 1/6 clusters for the second one. Now the 5 new Ura Onis are grouped in the Ura Oni section of the site!
48. HQ videos of Heavy Rotation and Mata Saitama 2000. FINALLY!
47. Achievement system is basically a more organized way of presenting unlockables to the player. Most of the unlock conditions are exactly the same as in every console Taiko dating back to Taiko DS1 except laid out in a more organized way. The Taiko Counter unlocks are all in here as well.
46. HQ video of all difficulties of SORA-V Cosmic Bird
45. HQ video of MISTER, the 7* Variety song.
44. As already hinted by this post's comments, the Don Points scoring system is replaced by 78 game achievements; by completing each of them, random goodies are awarded (like Taiko hitsounds and songs/Ura modes). It's also disappeared the Bell note from the past PSP games; if the analog stick is tilted in-game, it can be heard a sound of a man, saying: "YO!"
43. HQ video of Taiyou mo Yapapa Ura. 8* with 549 notes.
41. Once the Story mode is completed and Cycle of Rebirth is unlocked, the Omikoji mode button becomes irreversibly LOCKED! However, it's possible in somehow to re-unlock it again and to try a Boss Rush mode, as already happened for the 3rd Ds game..
40. Full difficulty sets for all the unlockable/downloadable songs we've seen so far are revealed. Go to songlist for more details.
39. Canadea is sung by Mika Sato. This means it'll be featured in a Song series soon!
38. The downloadable Guts Guts!! is a 6-star song, with 289 notes. (Non-HQ video)
37. Non-HQ video of SMOKY THRILL, the Ponta & Lawson exclusive IdolM@ster song. 8* with 492 notes.
36. HQ video of Shiro Neko Caramel Mugen no Wata Ame, on Nicovideo. Sung by Kaori Aihara, who did SORA-IV and Total Eclipse 2035. 7*, 634 combo.
35. HQ video of Cycle of Reverse/Rivers/Rebirth (what the hell is this word supposed to be?) on Nicovideo.
34. Performed additional recount on song list: initial is 68 songs and not 61. Only two songs are unlocked, Mata Saitama 2000 and Cycle of Reverse, making for 70 songs, matching the advertised material. 10 Ura Onis. 10 total download songs as of July. There shouldn't be any more songs to unlock- which probably explains the lack of it. (note absence of Toccata and Fugue)
33. There is an additional unlockable song, this time concerning the Story mode: Cycle of Reverse (サイクル･オブ･リバース). This 9* song is the tune used for the last boss battle; its Max Combo value is 765.
----------------July 15 ^---------------July 14 V---------------------------
32. Latest post by Zekira with several details: Medley Mode plays entire songs back-to-back instead of picking bits out, the combo number can accumulate to ridiculous levels, and there's a '2000 combo!'sound by Don-chan. The results screen shows number of drumrolls, and your name can now consist of 6 characters instead of four. Lots of screenshots of Omikoji story mode in action too.
31. Video of Kimagure gameplay mod in action. Thanks anongos!
30. HQ video of Nagisa no Andromeda, which has its own special dancers. 8* Oni with 701 notes.
