Overview
ヘタリアン☆ジェット (Hetalian☆Jet) is the opening theme for ヘタリア The World Twinkle, the sixth anime season of the long-running Hetalia franchise based on Hidekaz Himaruya's web manga Hetalia: Axis Powers. The track is performed in-character by Italy, voiced by Daisuke Namikawa (浪川大輔), and was composed by moss moss with lyrics by YUMIKO. A physical single was released in 2015 ahead of the song's debut in the arcade rhythm game scene.
The song arrived in maimai as part of the PiNK PLUS edition on October 20, 2016, slotted into the POPS＆アニメ category at a steady 132 BPM. Like many licensed anime tracks in arcade rhythm games, its availability was brief: ヘタリアン☆ジェット was removed from the songlist when the game updated to MiLK on December 14, 2017, and regional licensing restrictions confined it to Japanese cabinets only. The two upper-difficulty charts were crafted by notes designers known in the maimai community, しろいろ (Shiroiro) handled the Expert arrangement at Level 8, while はっぴー (Happy) designed the Master chart at Level 10. With straightforward note distributions and a cheerful, mid-tempo energy that mirrors the playful tone of the Hetalia series, the song remains a remembered piece of the PiNK PLUS era for players who caught it during its short window of availability.
