Overview
Star☆Glitter is the debut single of the fictional idol unit SEVENTH SISTERS (セブンスシスターズ), from the multimedia franchise Tokyo 7th Sisters (Tokyo 7th シスターズ). Composed by kz of livetune, a producer well known for blending electronic pop with anime and game soundtracks, the track serves as the opening theme of the franchise's idol-raising simulation game and originally appeared on the 2014 album t7s Longing for summer. Sung by a six-member cast including Inori Minase and Mai Fuchigami among others, the song is an upbeat, 171 BPM idol-pop number whose lyrics revolve around chasing dreams and reaching someone special under a shining starry sky.
The song arrived in maimai on April 6, 2017 as part of the MURASAKi edition, bringing the Tokyo 7th Sisters opening animation along as its in-game music video. Its Master chart, designed by ロシェ@ペンギン (Rocher@penguin), is a Slide-heavy Level 11 layout with 109 Slide notes out of 605 total, a strong hint of the designer's characteristic emphasis on sweeping slide patterns. The Expert chart was handled by Jack at Level 9. Star☆Glitter was later removed from maimai on July 11, 2019, making it one of the lost licensed tracks from that era; it also appeared in CHUNITHM AIR PLUS as part of the same cross-title collaboration event.
