Trivia

This song has different backgrounds, banners, jackets, or other related images. For more information, please see this page.
  • 321 STARS marks Kiyotaka Sugimoto's first original composition in the beatmania series.
    • It also marks his first instrumental song in BEMANI.
  • The title, 321 STARS, is a reference to Kiyotaka Sugimoto's birthday, March 21st (3/21).
  • 321 STARS is the only returning original song in beatmania ClubMIX which did not receive new charts.
  • Along with the other BEMANI songs crossed over to pop'n music 8, 321 STARS displays ♪♪♪♪♪ as the artist. This has never changed.
  • KINOKO BOY does not have a 2P color.
  • 321 STARS received a brand-new Double NORMAL chart in beatmania THE FINAL, replacing its original chart.
  • 321 STARS received a brand-new EX chart in pop'n music 9's Gambler de Z (ギャンブラーZ) unlock event. It could be unlocked from February 13th, 2003 through March 12th, 2003 after unlocking 翔べない天使 and clearing 321 STARS' EX chart, or failing it enough times until it's automatically unlocked.
    • As of March 12th, 2003, this chart is playable by default.
  • 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.
      • A similar joke occurred with 321 STARS in pop'n music with its NORMAL chart; if one achieved a full combo in pop'n music 8, it was 321 (MAX COMBO in earlier pop'n music game was the song's notecount total minus 1). Once the MAX COMBO got updated in later pop'n music games to include all of a song's notes, though, this joke was lost once more.
  • In the DanceDanceRevolution series, 321 STARS is titled as 321STARS.
  • 321STARS received a Double BEGINNER chart in DanceDanceRevolution ULTRAMIX2.
  • 321 STARS is one of the six revived beatmania songs that can be found in beatmania IIDX 13 DistorteD CS.

Song Production Information

DJ SIMON

The running gag of this techno pop song, is "1, 2, 1, 2, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 222222222, 3, 2, 1, Hiiiii~" with the feel of an adorable, fast-moving hyper amusement facility (?), like a clockwork mini theater.

Underneath the warm melody is some kind of surreal world, where vigorous drums pound out high-octane beats.

The main background is a boy on his keyboard, with the image of him clacking away with like he's hacking. It's personally my favorite animation.
