Overview

POPPY PAPPY DAY is the ending theme of Pop Team Epic (ポプテピピック), the surreal, gag-driven anime based on the four-panel manga by Bkub Okawa. The version featured in maimai DX is performed by Popuko (voiced by Hiromi Igarashi) and Pipimi (voiced by Rei Matsuzaki), with music composed and arranged by Gin of BUSTED ROSE. The song originally appeared on the anime's compilation album ポプテピピック ALL TIME BEST (2018) and was added to maimai DX in September 2019 as part of a limited Pop Team Epic collaboration area before being made permanently available the following month. True to the anime's chaotic spirit, the Master chart opens with a sudden cut to a video by AC部 (AC-bu), the animation unit behind the infamous Bobunemimimmi (ボブネミミッミ) segments within the show, an in-joke that catches unsuspecting players off guard. The song's appearance in maimai also marked the first instance where an All Perfect+ title was discovered in the game, adding a small piece of community history to its legacy. POPPY PAPPY DAY was later removed from the playable roster in March 2022, making it a time-limited piece of the maimai DX song library.
