Overview
Itsuka ii Kanji ni Are Shiyou (いつかいい感じにアレしよう) is a POPS&ANIME character song tied to the indie web series "Ponkotsu Quest ~Maou to Haken no Mamono-tachi~" (ポンコツクエスト~魔王と派遣の魔物たち~). The track was composed by sasakure.UK, a recurring maimai composer known for "the EmpErroR", and features vocals by Keisuke Matsumoto (松本慶祐), who voiced both Kaku and Imura, wrote the lyrics, and served as the series' writer, illustrator, editor, and voice actor.
The song debuted in maimai でらっくす PLUS in July 2020 through the limited Ponkotsu Quest Area, becoming permanently unlockable the following September. It is notable for its exceptionally brief availability in certain regions: the Chinese version carried the song for only 125 days, the shortest window of any non-April Fools track in the series. The song was later removed from Asian cabinets in September 2024. In gameplay terms, the MASTER chart (designed by ぴちネコ) stands out for its unusually high Touch-note density, 143 out of 769 notes, making it a distinctive play on DX cabinets.
