pop'n music 18 せんごく列伝 (AC) (Japan)

BIG LOL at the character choice. An obvious reference to Itoshisato Setsunasato Kokoro Tsuyosato being the featured song from the Street Fighter II movie back in 1994! I love it.

I call the ポップン映画祭 counterpart being putting the different provinces into a war.

Pop'n Music 18 - Foundation of You (DJ Command mix)

character: Tran remixed by MZD(17)
unsure why it called Foundation of You when it really Foundation of Our Love

Probably because the original was deleted on this machine, and they've changed the lyrics too.

A new unlock appeared today, and it's the first Bemani crossover for the new game:

seiya-murai feat.ALT - 隅田川夏恋歌 (Sumidagawa Natsu Koi Uta, Sumidagawa's Summer Love Song)
Genre: A.I. Date Pop
BPM: 180
Character: ALT
Difficulty: 15/20/32/37

From Jubeat Ripples, and it's Seiya Murai and ALT so it fits Pop'n Music perfectly. Think fast ethnic sound like Kung-Fu Empire with computer voicebox vocals.

The unlock method from BEMANIwiki appears to be:
Select the character Kagetora from Pop'n Music 9 (雪の華, Taiga Drama). On the first two songs, play Polaris (Galaxive Rock) and a song with A.I. in the genre (A.I. Techno, A.I. Obachan, A.I. Kids). The song will then appear on the final stage.

omg, that new starmine song is awesome! love how they sing the melody from the original~

Alright, the first thing I thought of when I looked at Ge-Ko-Ku-Jo's character is "OMG Shi-low??!" and then it dawned on me that it wasn't. Still an amazing track from kors k!

Is this his first original track on pop'n music?

---

Yes, it is.

---

What about, say, the keel (Nu-Style Gabba mix)?

New unlock over last weekend:

ひので155 - IKKI! Explosion
Genre: 一揆 (Ikki)
BPM: 250
Character: Scarecrows
Difficulty: 14/20/34/40

Unlock method from BEMANIwiki appears to be:

Play each of the following songs at least once: くさびかたびら☆下克上！〜暗躍の魅惑MIX (Lovely Kunoichi Pop), 隅田川夏恋歌 (A.I. Date Pop), 登山者達 (Tozan, Pop'n Music 11), さようならこんにちは (Oh-Misoka, Pop'n Music 12 いろは), and 突然ゴルゴンゾーラ (Kaijuu, Pop'n Music 17 THE MOVIE). On a subsequent playthrough during the first or second song, make the number 155 appear in either the score or judgement counts (must be 155 exactly, not a number with 155 in it). The song will then appear on the final stage.

Combo was also a possibility, but smbu over on BMS already confirmed that combo doesn't work.

Has a video of パラボラ(PARABOLA) by the Parquets appeared yet? I'd love to see the chart

---

Parquets doesn't want the song to be uploaded on YouTube/NicoNico (I don't know if the PMS video on YouTube is the real cut/chart to be honest).

The last unlocked song:
YouTube - [pop'n music 18] IKKI! Explosion EX (IKKI)

Another new unlock from Pop'n Music Portable today:

Leksak - Ensamble Forecast 3/28
Genre: Portable Pop
BPM: 212
Character: NINON
Difficulty: 11/19/35/40

EX chart from Pop'n Music Portable

Guess they underestimated the Hyper chart originally, as it's gone from a 33 to a 35.

---

They just HAD to put GOLD RUSH on it didn't they? Least they rushed in 18 Pop'n namedrops in "that" part.

Makes me wonder if they ever add GOLD RUSH to DDR, would they do DDR names instead

---

It's already confirmed GOLD RUSH would be on DDR, a remix is highly likely.
