Overview
enchanted love is a Future Hop / Emotional instrumental track by the Japanese music circle linear ring, originally created for THE BMS OF FIGHTERS XVI (BOFXVI), the annual Be-Music Source song contest held in 2020. The piece placed 9th in the individual scoring division, earning selection for maimai DX UNiVERSE PLUS alongside other BOF finalists. At 95 BPM, the song carries a gentle, wistful atmosphere driven by airy synth pads and a unhurried beat, offering a contrasting calm within the GAME & VARIETY category. The accompanying music video was produced by artist 百舌谷 (Mozuya), whose visuals amplify the track's melancholic fairy-tale mood. An extended arrangement titled enchanted love (and the witch's selfish heart) appears on the BOFXVI compilation album GroundbreakinG 2020, and a narrative sequel, enchanted wanderer, was later added to maimai DX FESTiVAL PLUS, forming a loose story-like continuity. Outside of maimai, enchanted love also appears in lowiro's Arcaea. The Master chart, designed by はっぴー (Happy), features extensive Touch-note sequences totaling 96 touches at level 13+ (constant 13.7), while the Expert chart by 隅田川星人 (Sumidagawa Seijin) emphasizes Hold and Slide patterns at 11+ (constant 11.8).
