Overview

イノコリ先生 (Inokori Sensei) is a VOCALOID song by the music circle HoneyWorks, built around a playful schoolroom premise. The track arrived in maimai during the PiNK season on January 21, 2016, and has remained in the standard song list through subsequent version updates. Composed, arranged, and lyricized by HoneyWorks member Gom, the piece uses flower as its VOCALOID vocalist, a fitting choice given the song's theatrical call-and-response structure (先生の事好きですかー?, "Do you like your teacher?"). The original music video, directed by Yamako with illustrations by Rocoru, reinforces the classroom aesthetic with its character-driven visuals. The song first appeared on HoneyWorks' 2014 album debut before being licensed for rhythm game use. Over its lifespan in maimai, the charts received several difficulty adjustments, the Advanced chart rose from level 6 to 7, the Expert chart was raised from 8+ to 9+, and the Master chart climbed from 11 to 12+, reflecting how the song's chart design held up as the series' overall difficulty curve evolved. The Expert chart (designed by はっぴー) leans on dense hold-note sequences, while mai-Star's Master chart (12.7 difficulty constant) packs 807 total notes with an emphasis on Slide patterns, making it a demanding play at its level.
