Song Connections / Remixes

  • Todestrieb is one of the Lincle Kingdom Phase 2 boss songs, representing Pride.

Trivia

  • The name "Rche" is a variation of "Lucifer", one of the seven princes of Hell, representing pride.
    • Rche appears as a young, blonde angel.
      • When you miss a note, Rche will unleash an energy blast after turning into a goat.
      • After Rche dies, there will be a scene showing a feather from his wings falling into a pool of blood.
      • If you fail to Normal Clear Todestrieb, Rche will be shown holding the Earth in his hands, turning it red.
  • When Todestrieb is played as a boss stage in Lincle Kingdom, the arcade LED ticker displays <PRIDE>RCHE<SUPERBIA>.
  • Todestrieb is below 蛇神 in the songlist index, known for having songs sorted by composer, so it was speculated that Rche was a collaboration between DJ YOSHITAKA and TOMOSUKE. However, it was revealed in the beatmania IIDX 19 Lincle ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK that Todestrieb was composed and arranged by just Tomosuke himself.
  • In classical Freudian psychoanalytic theory, the death drive ("Todestrieb") is the drive towards death, self-destruction and the return to the inorganic.
  • Todestrieb's song comments in the beatmania IIDX 19 Lincle website are written in German.
  • On the Rche's glyph, it is possible to read "Lucifer", which is written with a very small font at the side of the glyph.
