Trivia
- The title, 321 STARS, is a reference to Sugimoto's birthday, March 21st (3/21).
- Counting jumps, 321 STARS' Single EXPERT chart has exactly 321 steps in it in DanceDanceRevolution, a reference to its name.
- Unfortunately, due to jumps counting as one step for combo purposes in all future DanceDanceRevolution titles after EXTREME, this little in-joke is lost.
- Along with the other BEMANI songs crossed over to pop'n music 8, 321 STARS displays ♪♪♪♪♪ as the artist. This has never changed.
- 321 STARS received an EX chart in pop'n music 9. This chart was carried to pop'n music 8 CS.
- 321 STARS appears on beatmania IIDX 13 DistorteD CS, with new 7-key charts, as part of the BEMANI 10th Anniversary Commemoration.
- 321 STARS received a Double BEGINNER chart in DanceDanceRevolution ULTRAMIX2.
