Overview
超常マイマイン (Choujou Maimein) is an original commissioned song written for maimai DX by the Vocaloid producer and doujin artist ナユタン星人 (Nayutan Seijin). The title itself is a wordplay on the game's name, マイマイン (maimein, "my mine") echoes マイマイ (maimai), while 超常 (chōjō) means "supernatural", fitting for a track with an energetic, otherworldly pop sound. Although the in-game artist field credits only Nayutan Seijin, the vocals were performed by OOO (おれそ), with the music video directed by Eto Noboru. The song runs at a brisk 178 BPM with bright synth leads and a driving beat characteristic of Nayutan Seijin's style. Within the maimai community, the MASTER chart is particularly remembered for its dense 48th-note trill patterns that arrive at the key change synced to the lyric "もう本気出していいですか" ("Can I get serious now?"), demanding precise speed control from players. A Re:Master chart was added on August 26, 2022, raising the song's ceiling to a 13+ difficulty constant of 13.8. Initially exclusive to the はじまりのちほー (Beginning Area) unlock system, the song became generally available to all players when maimai DX Splash launched in September 2020.
