Overview
胡蝶乃舞 (Kochou no Mai) is an energetic electronic original by Srav3R, first introduced in the rhythm game Paradigm: Reboot before arriving in maimai DX as part of the CiRCLE edition. The title employs poetic classical kanji, 胡蝶 (an older variant of 蝴蝶, "butterfly") and 乃舞 ("dance of"), collectively evoking a "Butterfly Dance." At 180 BPM, the track channels Srav3R's signature high-energy production style, which has found a home across multiple rhythm game platforms including Liminality, VOEZ, and Dynamix UV. The song's visuals (the in-game movie) were handled by TunerGames, adding a polished audio-visual package to its maimai debut.
