DJ YOSHITAKA
beatmania IIDX 20 tricoro
Thank you for waiting, finally "FLOWER" has blossom and it is included in IIDX.
ANOTHER 11 is also a good job adjustment.
I was pleased that this song was included in IIDX. As for the next one, DanceEvolution? ……Maybe.
Tenkaichi otogesai Zenkoku 2014
In 2011, I planted a seed.
It takes a lot of time and energy to sprout this seed. What color is the final flower? How is the shape of the flower? How many petals will it have? ......
After considering these issues, I planted it in a land called jubeat.
This seed germinates and grows. "FLOWER" becomes one of the most famous songs in the BEMANI series.
Now you can play it on all kinds of arcade games in BEMANI series.
Anyway, try to see the open flowers of various colors and shapes.
And don't be afraid, try to touch it.
Of course, you will see a lot of things in the challenge, just as if you don't know what kind of flowers the seeds will make when you see the seeds.
