Staff Information

Profile
Yuji Takahashi, better known under his alias VJ YUZ, was a former member of the beatmania IIDX team's "VJ Army", who created videos for the series. His videos often contained art by GOLI. Yuji was also a staff member for the KEYBOARDMANIA series, who was initially a CG designer in the first game, and eventually the director of its two sequels. Although he stepped down as a beatmania IIDX staff member in 6th style, he continued to occasionally create videos for the series until his final BEMANI appearance in 9th style.

Trivia
- In Happy Wedding's song and video comments, both dj TAKA and GOLI respectively acknowledge that one of the beatmania IIDX male VJs got married at the time, but don't mention whom. Given that Yuji stepped down from the main visual staff after 6th style (later games only credit him as "special thanks"), didn't make any videos in 7th style, only made one video in 8th style, and left BEMANI altogether after 9th style, it's speculated to be him.
- dj TAKA also mentions that Happy Wedding's original title was called HAPPY WEDDING ○○○!, leaving three letters for a VJ's name, further suggesting it was Yuji, whose VJ name is VJ YUZ [1].
