Trivia

This song has different backgrounds, banners, jackets, or other related images. For more information, please see this page.

• Although DanceDanceRevolution 5thMIX was released after Dance Maniax 2ndMIX (where 祭 (J-SUMMER MIX) debuted in), 祭 JAPAN is the original song according to Naoki.
• 祭 JAPAN received a proper banner in DanceDanceRevolution KONAMIX.
• In DanceDanceRevolution KONAMIX and Dancing Stage PARTY EDiTiON, 祭 JAPAN reuses BOOM BOOM DOLLAR's background animations.
• 祭 JAPAN received a new banner and a Single BEGINNER chart in DanceDanceRevolution EXTREME.
• On the American and European releases of DanceDanceRevolution, 祭 JAPAN's title is romanized as MATSURI JAPAN.
• 祭 JAPAN received a Double BEGINNER chart in DanceDanceRevolution ULTRAMIX2.
• 祭 JAPAN was added to pop'n music 10 on December 17th, 2003 via ee'MALL 2nd avenue.
• Along with BRE∀K DOWN!, 祭 JAPAN is one of the two ee'MALL DanceDanceRevolution songs that were given brand-new keysounds in pop'n music, unlike other crossovers which recycled their beatmania IIDX keysounds.
• Before pop'n music 15 ADVENTURE, 祭 JAPAN's songwheel genre was 祭 JAPAN (with the exception of pop'n music 13 カーニバル CS).
• 祭 JAPAN was still present in the location test of DanceDanceRevolution X, with its new foot ratings.
• While on the DanceDanceRevolution series, 祭 JAPAN was removed from DanceDanceRevolution X onwards, it is still present on the pop'n music series, likely because of the lack of vocals.
• In DanceDanceRevolution 5thMIX and DanceDanceRevolution EXTREME, 祭 JAPAN was listed as a Dance Maniax song and not a DanceDanceRevolution original song. Only in pop'n music was its correct BEMANI series of origin ever listed.
