BEMANI x TOHO project REITAISAI 2015

BEMANI×TOHO project REITAISAI 2015

The BEMANI×TOHO project REITAISAI 2015 event is a cross-BEMANI event between beatmania IIDX 22 PENDUAL, BeatStream, DanceDanceRevolution (2014), GITADORA Tri-Boost, jubeat prop, pop'n music ラピストリア, REFLEC BEAT groovin'!! Upper, and SOUND VOLTEX III GRAVITY WARS, to promote the upcoming release of the BEMANI×東方Project Ultimate MasterPieces album.

This event also marks the first time when every BEMANI game series besides BeatStream and SOUND VOLTEX receive Touhou Project remix songs (save for the DanceEvolution and ミライダガッキ FutureTomTom series, which are not involved in this event).

The BEMANI×TOHO project REITAISAI 2015 event started on April 30th, 2015.

Overview

Two set of songs from the BEMANI×東方Project Ultimate MasterPieces album were added to the participant games on April 30th, 2015 and May 14th, 2015. While the BeatStream, jubeat, REFLEC BEAT and SOUND VOLTEX series obtained all 12 songs, the other BEMANI series obtained just some of them.

Note that some songs/charts have to be unlocked; only GITADORA Tri-Boost has everything automatically unlocked.

Trivia

• Of the artists featured in the event, beatMARIO was the only artist at the time who had not written a KONAMI original song in BEMANI, until the release of びいすと！ on BeatStream a few months later.
• Prior to June 9th, 2015, none of the songs that appeared in DanceDanceRevolution (2014) retained the videos that appeared in BeatStream.
• Scarlet Moon later received a background video made by GOLI in beatmania IIDX 22 PENDUAL in the Vol.2 update. It was carried over to BeatStream at an unknown date.
• ホメ猫☆センセーション and プレインエイジア -PHQ remix- are the only songs with music videos that do not incorporate the Touhou Project generic background video from BeatStream.
• Instead of adding black bars for widescreen videos in beatmania IIDX, all the videos are formatted in 4:3 aspect ratio.
