REFLEC BEAT groovin'!! Upper (AC) (Japan)

And now he joins the likes of:
RevenG vs. DE-SIRE
kors k vs. teranoid
Sota Fujimori vs. DJ MAX STEROID

The song will be available on monday for people who won at Reflec Dirby (not yet announced for those who didn't guessed the winners right)
For 2 top rankers to only get 85% and 88% on first try, the song is probably a lot more difficult that I think it is looking at it...

Nice going this year with KAC though, new songs everywhere (except the bug in Voltex that is actually making the net burn...)

Ah, also
FUJIMORI -祭- FESTIVAL(EDP Live Mix) / VENUS
is unlockable if you buy the song (real money)

If you enter for the 4th KAC and played all of your group qualify songs during it, The 4th KAC DJ TOTTO's SELECTION/Remixed by DJ TOTTO is available.

Unfortunately I cannot play it because I did not enter.

Big update tomorrow
。once again, winter Collisseum is back, with new special charts and a brand new song (kept secret)
。Bemani Music Focus continues, but this time, it'll be a player choice focus.
Starting tomorrow, and for 2 weeks, once per play, you get to vote for one song within a list of 30 song to chose which one you want on Reflec Beat

I don't know all those songs (especially old GD and pop'n songs), so I'll probably mainly throw my vote at Votum stellarum, Saturn, Black Horizon and 100sec. Kitchen Battle!!

I watched the stream and it looked like the new song was supposed to be Shock Me / dj TAKA feat Fuu:ka. The jacket had the text pixelated but a character that looked like MILK but with red hair appeared.

Here's naoton20's lineout of Vajra:

That list of songs just made me so nostalgic I could cry.

Votum stellarum, Saturn, and xenon would make amazing charts for REFLEC BEAT.

---

The new Coliseum song is...????


Also, clearing the Coliseum on Normal 5 times gives a SPECIAL chart for 朧

Only 3 DDR songs in the list? That sucks.
But I bet for Saturn.

From what I heard, the artists that already picked their songs for BEMANI FOCUS weren't allowed to pick songs that were made from Naoki for obvious reasons so that could explain why they aren't a lot of DDR songs on the list. However, that fact is a little strange because they were some songs picked from in house artists that don't work for Konami anymore.

---

The problem is not with former BEMANI artists in general, it's with Naoki in particular.

The list has some really good songs but at least half of them are pretty safe choices. I wanted more obscure stuff like one seek

---

I think this will be unpopular but I don't really care for Naoki's songs. The only original solo song he composed to appear in this franchise has been removed already. I guess I don't share the same nostalgia for DDR as most of you do. I've always liked the other games more.

If I can vote, I'd pick BOBBY SUE AND SKINNY JIM because I like Raj Ramayya's few songs he's sung in BEMANI.

---

Oh crap! Oboro on special? Really looking forward to playing that.

Odd song but I like it. Love the rapping.

I have a feeling Taka had his hand at this.

---

It does sound a lot like his Risk Junk songs. I've also heard rumors that Des-Row may have been involved with this song too.

---

New MUSIC FOCUS chosen by TOMOSUKE tonight. Revealed songs are:

I'M GONNA GET YOU! / Kelly Cosmo
the keel / Akino
LOVE IS ORANGE / Orange Lounge

BEMANI Focus is a good event.

---

I'm interested in which song would Tomosuke chose as the 4th.

Also, the Coca-Cola song will soon be available through an event named Code Breaking
There is a hint 「イ ケ イ カ ダ ン」 but no idea what it means (you have to change the order of the letters to get it, something with "stairs"?)
And the Bemani Focus Super Choice is halfway done, and the pre-results were shown
I laughed at Des-Row despair at his own song ranking (24th), and was surprised at votum stellarum being only 6th
Apparently Beyond the Earth is within the top 3
I will continue to vote as I can for Votum, 100 sec and Saturn
