BEMANI Staff Tenure

In the past 18 years, there have many contributors to KONAMI's long line of BEMANI game titles. Some have been with the company for years, while others only stayed for a short period of time.

Two notes about this list:

1.) This list only includes in-house KONAMI staff, and only counts the time they worked at the company on BEMANI, NOT at KONAMI in general. Any time they've worked freelance/commissioned is not listed on here.
2.) This list only counts the years with which they were active, and counts off/skips years when they did not participate in BEMANI.
