Overview
ゆっくりしていってね!!! (Yukkuri Shite Itte ne!!!) is a Hatsune Miku Vocaloid original song by the producer 今日犬 (Kyouinu), added to maimai MURASAKi on January 24, 2017. The title, which translates to "Please take it easy!!!", is a deeply embedded Japanese internet meme, originating from a 2channel thread involving the Touhou Project character Yukari Yakumo, the phrase later evolved into the "yukkuri" image-macro characters that became a staple of Japanese imageboard culture. The song plays on this meme with deliberate irony: its commanding 221 BPM tempo, among the fastest in the niconico & Vocaloid category, directly contradicts the "slow down" message of its title, a gag that helped it gain traction on niconico. In maimai, the song belongs to the niconico & Vocaloid genre (niconico&ボーカロイド) and has remained available for standard play since its debut. Over the course of maimai DX updates, both the Expert and Master charts received notable upward level re-ratings, Expert climbing from 9+ in MURASAKi to 11+ by FESTIVAL, and Master rising from 11+ to 13+, reflecting the community's evolving assessment of their difficulty. The Master chart was designed by はっぴー and the Expert chart by 玉子豆腐.

Trivia
- The phrase "ゆっくりしていってね!!" originated from a 2channel copypasta associated with the Touhou Project character Yukari Yakumo and later evolved into the "yukkuri" meme, faceless, round-headed derivative characters that became a fixture of Japanese imageboard and niconico culture.
- The song's BPM of 221 stands in deliberate ironic contrast to its title's suggestion to take things easy. This juxtaposition, a frantic, high-speed Vocaloid track telling the listener to relax, is central to the song's comedic appeal.
- The official music video on niconico (sm2731089) features Hatsune Miku and is credited as an original composition by 今日犬.
- Both of the song's upper-difficulty charts have been re-rated upward over the course of maimai DX updates. The Expert chart rose from level 9+ (MURASAKi) → 10+ → 11+ (FESTIVAL onward). The Master chart rose from 11+ → 12+ → 13 → 13+, one of the more significant cumulative difficulty increases for a single song in the game's history.
- The Expert chart is credited to 玉子豆腐 (Tamagodoufu) and the Master chart to はっぴー (Happy), both regular notes designers for the maimai series.
- The song was added as part of the MURASAKi version update on January 24, 2017, and has never been removed or locked in subsequent versions, remaining available in standard play across all later DX editions.
- A Basic chart (level 5) and Advanced chart (level 8) also exist, though these are credited generically without a named designer.
