First Video: Peta・PETA!? Pumpkin

For a direct Oni star upgrade to the Boku wa Synth notechart, look no further than the latest Saturday debutant! While bearing a small note tally to its count (30 notes less than last week's Namco Original newcomer), multiple time signatures flowing at a leisurasble speed -even 1/20s!- will no doubt test players' rhythm-beating finesse more than their physical prowess.

It goes without saying, but last Halloween's SotW article starring this song has been updated as well!

First Video: Homura and Kibou no Tsuki

 

Today's carnet of licensed newcomers stars both a beginner-friendly pick and an intermediate-geared gauntlet with plenty of tempo changes within each compound cluster. Be it for the latest Kimetsu no Yaiba playable pick or the latest Yuzuki Yukari song in Taiko gaming, at least this silver lining will make the next perma-removal round sound less bitter...

Merch Search: Yomii x Taiko no Tatsujin Piano Collection (Oni)

Most Donders should be quite familiar who Yomii (よみぃ) is by now. Being the hand behind two Taiko no Tatsujin inclusions as well as the upcoming third (LECIEL GLISSANDO) through the Faith Creation contest, he is also an established pianist and YouTube creator and has close collaborative ties with Bandai Namco (including guest appearances in promotional videos and the Donkatsu at Home tournament).

Those collaborative ties are expected to grow stronger with the upcoming album Yomii x Taiko no Tatsujin Piano Collection (Oni) (よみぃ×太鼓の達人 ピアノコレクション（おに）) published by Yamaha Music, slated for release on January 27 2021. As suggested by the title, the album features Yomii's piano-based arrangement and performance to 14 higher-end Namco Original picks, including poxei◆DOON (PV above) and his own creation of D's Adventure Note.
