Due to limited space in the early pop'n music games, none of the original backgrounds or sprites from [[AC pnm|pop'n music]] are re-used in this game, although all the songs from the original game are in this one. Characters returning from the previous installment have their new sprites replace their pop'n 1 character sprites, or are replaced by another pop'n music 2 character. Characters who don't have match-ups with pop'n music 2 characters (such as CHARLY from [[spicy piece]]) are replaced by MZD, who made his debut in this game. Additionally, all the [[CS pnm|pop'n music CS]] pop'n music songs are represented exclusively by pretty, who comes in five different colors - one for each CS song.
