Overview

おいでよ！妖精の森 (Oideyo! Yousei no mori, "Come to the Fairy Forest") is the opening theme of the short-form anime series gdgd妖精s (gdgd Fairies), a surreal comedy that parodies fantasy RPG tropes. The song was composed by Junichi Inoue, arranged by Nozomi Kano, and performed by the show's three lead voice actresses, Suzuko Mimori, Kaoru Mizuhara, and Satomi Akesaka, collectively credited as "gdgd妖精s" (gdgd Fairies). Its lyrics are packed with playful spoken interjections, count-ins, and the signature "gdgd" refrain (a Japanese onomatopoeia for sluggish, half-hearted activity), matching the anime's self-aware, low-budget humor. The track races along at 220 BPM, giving it an energetic, almost frantic pace that contrasts with the deliberately lazy "gdgd" aesthetic. In maimai, the song debuted with the launch of maimai ORANGE on September 18, 2014. Both the Expert and Master charts were designed by the prolific charter はっぴー (Happy). The Master chart, with a level of 11, features a high Slide-note count (105) and 52 Break notes out of 582 total, demanding both stamina and precision from players. The song was later removed from arcade rotation on June 22, 2017, making it unavailable on current maimai cabinets, one of several licensed anime tracks that were delisted over time. In Asian English releases of maimai, the title was romanized as "Oideyo! Yousei no mori" and the artist as "Gdgd Fairies".

Trivia

おいでよ！妖精の森 was used as the opening theme of the TV anime series gdgd妖精s (gdgd Fairies), a short-form comedy that aired from 2011 to 2013. The anime's television opening is roughly one minute long, and its song structure differs slightly from the version featured in maimai.
The composition and lyrics were handled by Junichi Inoue, while arrangement credits go to Nozomi Kano. Both are known for work on other anime and game soundtracks.
The three vocalists, Suzuko Mimori, Kaoru Mizuhara, and Satomi Akesaka, performed as the in-universe gdgd Fairies. Mimori is widely known for her role as Sonoda Umi in Love Live!, Mizuhara for roles including Suiseiseki in Rozen Maiden, and Akesaka for her work across anime and game voice acting.
The word 'gdgd' (ぐだぐだ) in the title is a Japanese onomatopoeia describing sluggish, half-hearted, or aimless behavior, fitting the anime's parody tone. The refrain 'ぐだぽょ〜' is a nonsense catchphrase from the series.
The song was added to maimai at the launch of the ORANGE edition on September 18, 2014. It was later removed from the arcade lineup on June 22, 2017, and is no longer playable on current cabinets.
In Asian English releases of maimai, the song title was displayed as 'Oideyo! Yousei no mori' and the artist as 'Gdgd Fairies'.
Over the course of maimai's version history, the song's in-game genre label shifted: it was categorized as ANIME during ORANGE and ORANGE PLUS, then reclassified as POPS & ANIME from PiNK onward.
Both the Expert (level 9) and Master (level 11) charts were designed by はっぴー (Happy), a veteran maimai charter known for a wide range of standard and boss-chart designs across multiple editions.
The Master chart contains 105 Slide notes, the most of any note type on that difficulty, and 52 Break notes, creating a chart that emphasizes sweeping slide motions and high-scoring break patterns.
