Lyrics

Japanese

咲き誇れ 花々と
儚く散る 紅牡丹

今宵はお祭り 浴衣姿が嬉しくて
手と手を繋いで 太鼓轟く 盆踊り

踊りゃんせ 踊りゃんせ
賑やかに 雅に
見やしゃんせ 見やしゃんせ
夜空彩る 花

咲き乱れ 花々と
次々浮かび 鮮やか
咲き誇れ 花々と
儚く散る 紅牡丹

静寂が包み込む
黒煙だけ 残されて
見えないよ キミの手が
伽夢の 夏景色

咲き乱れ 花々と
次々浮かび 鮮やか
咲き誇れ 花々と
儚く散る 紅牡丹

Song Connections / Remixes

None.

Song Production Information

DJ NAGAI

So when I was deciding to make a song, it took me about an hour having to decide what to make, before deciding to make a joyful song with a festival feeling.
I cleared myself up from some pent-up anger with this song since I haven't been to a festival for the past few years.
I remember always buying an candy apple when I went to a festival.
But I eventually developed some cavities that became fully evident when I ate a pizza, and thinking about it now still gives me a toothache.
Everyone be careful of cavities!

a☆ru

Hello, a☆ru here, I was the one chosen to sing Benibotan!
In the previous game beatmania IIDX 21 SPADA, I sang the song Close the World feat. a☆ru, and the staff were very pleased, so they let me sing another song!

Benibotan, one of my favorite songs, which I like to sing to myself!
This song has a different atmosphere, more happy and cute, unlike Close the World, so I put my best effort to make it as cute as possible.
The movie is also very cute, so cute that you may lose your combo if you look to the side...
Foxy-chan is so cute, I want to keep her.

Since I sang so hard with great feeling, I hope that you all like it.
Please come and play!!

Video Production Information

motoco

Nice to meet all you IIDX fans, my name is motoco.
I've always wanted to make anime... so when I got a call to make something for IIDX, I was so glad.
I was fired up, and produced it happily.

From the moment that I first listened to this music, I was caught up by the melody and the beautiful voice of aru.
"Let me make the movie for this song," I asked.
I felt that using a miko-chan and fox for the character would covey the theme and harmony of the song.
The fox's tail looks really fluffy because it's used as the pillow for the miko-chan.
From being a pillow to caring for others! She's very good at it.
