Overview

emomomo is an instrumental track produced by Ras (Kyosuke Yamazaki), first featured in maimai でらっくす Splash as part of the ゲーム&バラエティ (Game & Variety) category. The song predates its maimai appearance, having debuted at the FRENZ 2019 event under the all-caps title EMOMOMO. This represents Ras's return to the maimai series after roughly five years, his previous contribution was LANCE, released during the ORANGE PLUS era. Notably, Ras took to Twitter to clarify that emomomo is not a BMS (Be-Music Source) track, distinguishing it from the doujin rhythm-game scene where many of his contemporaries operate. The track's presentation is visually distinctive: the music video and jacket art incorporate Twemoji (Twitter's emoji set), credited under CC BY 4.0 with modifications noted. Video direction was handled by yama_ko. In its home region of Japan, the song launched on November 13, 2020, with staggered rollouts to Asian arcades on March 26, 2021 and Chinese arcades (舞萌DX 2021) on February 10, 2022. For players, emomomo's MASTER chart (level 13+) designed by はっぴー (Happy) stands out for its heavy reliance on Touch notes, 133 out of 870 total, demanding acute spatial awareness of the DX sensor layout. The EXPERT chart (level 10+) by 小鳥遊さん (Takanashi-san) offers a more measured introduction to the song's rhythm at a lower difficulty tier.
