Overview
モンダイナイトリッパー! (Mondai Nai Tripper!) is an original song by VTuber Natori Sana (名取さな) that joined the maimai DX FESTiVAL arcade rhythm game on November 4, 2022 under the POPS&アニメ genre. The title is a layered pun: it can be parsed as 問題ない (mondai nai, "no problem") combined with トリッパー (tripper), or broken into モンダイナイト + リッパー ("Problem Night Ripper"). A companion in-game称号 (title) unlocks the variant モンダイアリトリッパー! ("There's a Problem Tripper!"), confirming the deliberate wordplay between affirmation and trouble.
The song was composed, lyricized, and arranged by sasakure.UK, a veteran producer well known in maimai for earlier contributions including *ハロー、プラネット。 (Hello, Planet.), 麒麟 (Kirin), and the EmpErroR. It was first unveiled during Natori Sana's second solo event, "さなのばくたん。-メチャ・ハッピー・ショー- Powered by mouse," where it served as a celebratory original number for her streaming community.
On the charting side, the Expert (10+) layout was designed by 翠楼屋 (Suirōya), while the Master (13+) chart carries a notably high Touch-note count of 121 out of 839 total notes, making it a rhythmically dense experience that demands both precision and comfort with the DX sensor panel. The Master chart was co-designed by アマリリスせんせえ with ぴちネコせんえ (Amaryllis Sensei with Pichineko Sensei).

Trivia
