Overview

地上の戦士 (Chijou no Senshi, "Earth Warrior") is the opening theme of Sega's PS2 title Sakura Wars V: So Long, My Love (サクラ大戦V ～さらば愛しき人よ～), a tactical RPG that marked the fifth main entry in the long-running Sakura Wars franchise. The track appears in maimai as a game-variety (ゲーム＆バラエティ) song, credited simply to the franchise name 「サクラ大戦」 (Sakura Wars) rather than to a specific vocalist or band. Added on April 23, 2013, during the maimai PLUS update, 地上の戦士 is among the early Sega-licensed properties to join the arcade rhythm game's library. Its Master chart (Level 12+, constant 12.7) was designed by 譜面-100号 and is defined by an unusually high Tap-note density, 257 Tap notes out of 345 total, making it a stamina-heavy play that demands consistent rhythm over technical gimmickry. The Expert chart (Level 11), crafted by ニャイン, offers a more balanced distribution of 213 notes. Over subsequent maimai versions, the song's difficulty ratings have been adjusted multiple times to reflect the evolving level standard, and it has remained accessible across all regions through the game's lifecycle.

Trivia

地上の戦士 serves as the opening theme for Sakura Wars V: So Long, My Love, the fifth main installment in Sega's Sakura Wars series, originally released for the PlayStation 2 in 2005.
In the maimai PLUS version and several subsequent updates, the song originally featured an EASY chart (Level 1, later raised to Level 2 in the ORANGE version), though this chart is no longer listed in modern DX-standard chart tables.
The Master chart's designer, 譜面-100号 (Fumen-100-gou), is a long-time maimai notes designer whose name appears on many early-era high-difficulty charts. The name translates literally to 'Score-100' or 'Fumen-100'.
The Expert chart designer, ニャイン (Nyain), is another veteran charter whose handle is a playful spelling of 'nine'.
With 257 Tap notes, roughly 74% of its total 345-note count, the Master chart of 地上の戦士 is one of the Tap-heaviest charts from the maimai PLUS era at its difficulty level.
The song has undergone eight separate level adjustments across maimai versions, reflecting the game's gradual recalibration from the original numbering system through to the DX-era standards.
Despite being added in the early maimai PLUS period, 地上の戦士 has never been removed or rotated out, and has remained playable on all regional releases (Japan, international, USA, and China).
