Overview
メグメグ☆ファイアーエンドレスナイト (Megu Megu ☆ Fire Endless Night) is a VOCALOID original by producer samfree, featuring GUMI (Megpoid) on vocals. Samfree wrote the composition, arrangement, and lyrics, and the track first appeared on his 2009 album Story before finding its way into the rhythm game world. It belongs to samfree's well-known "Night series", a collection of high-energy dance-pop VOCALOID songs unified by their upbeat, infectious melodies and the "Night" suffix in their titles.
In maimai, the song dates back to the very first arcade release in July 2012, making it one of the earliest VOCALOID tracks in the series. Its unlock method was unusually social: new players had a one-in-three chance of receiving it (alongside マトリョシカ and メランコリック) automatically on their first play session, and playing together with someone who already owned one of the other two songs would unlock the missing ones. From maimai GreeN onward, the song became available by default. The in-game video is a dance routine performed by the group DANCEROID, and the jacket art is a still frame captured from that same performance.
On the chart side, the Master difficulty sits at level 11+ (constant 11.6) under the modern DX rating system, the end result of a long history of level revisions as maimai's difficulty scale evolved across versions. The chart was designed by the internal maimai TEAM.
