Overview
Stand Up!!!! is the opening theme of the 3DCG anime series Tesagure! Bukatsu-mono (てさぐれ!部活もの, "Exploring! Club Activities"), a comedy about a school club that spends its time aimlessly discussing how to make an anime. The song's lyrics playfully mirror this self-referential premise: instead of conventional anime OP lyrics, they narrate the production of an opening sequence in real time, calling out camera pans, key changes, character introductions, and the obligatory final chorus. The track was composed by Jun'ichi Inoue and arranged by Hajime, and features the four main voice actresses from the series as their respective characters: Asuka Nishi (Yua Suzuki), Satomi Akesaka (Hina Sato), Karin Ogino (Aoi Takahashi), and Ayaka Ohashi (Koharu Tanaka). Stand Up!!!! was added to maimai as a launch title for maimai ORANGE in September 2014, carrying the ANIME (later POPS & ANIME) genre tag. The in-game play background uses the anime's original opening video. The chart lineup includes an Expert chart designed by mai-Star and a Master chart (level 11.6) designed by はっぴー, the latter notable for its dense Slide-note layout, 151 Slide notes out of a total 527, giving the chart a distinctly busy, flowing movement that matches the song's energetic BPM of 185. The song was removed from the maimai arcade library on March 17, 2021, making it no longer selectable in current cabinets.
