JAEPO 2019 has come to a close, bringing up some social-media-spread scoops from the incoming Green Version. See what all the fuss is about after the jump!
The snaps above is the promotional poster showcasing the talking points for the new version, found on the Business Day (January 25). The left is just the songs again, while the right introduces an tentatively-named AI Battle Performance (AIバトル演奏) mode expected to come in Summer 2019. The visuals suggest that you have to play against the octogonal buddy and rival AI-Don (AIどん) as a form of training, and winning matches raises a rank (ランク). A song in this new mode will be split into 3 or 5 sections (区間) to decide the outcome, tallying totals for each note judgement.
Remember the small text that disclaims these are only assets under development, and the end product can be changed without prior notice.
Also found on the Business Day are sources ([1] [2] [3]) for the Oni ratings for the brand new additions (red text), as well as an unannounced brand new song too (red row):

Off to today (January 26), where the national finals for the fifth Tenkaichi Otogesai has taken place. In addition to the leaked notes that has the song choices for the earlier (which confirms the "Seiten no Reimei" romanization for us), there is of course the final unannounced brand new song just for the final showdown to expect.
The hype started with Daisuke Kurosawa tweeting about the finals (since deleted) and Masahiro "Godspeed" Aoki quote-retweeting earlier in the morning (screenshot by crystalsuicune).
