Overview
全力☆Summer! (Zenryoku☆Summer!) is the opening theme song for the 2017 anime comedy series Aho-Girl (アホガール), performed by the veteran Japanese music duo angela, vocalist atsuko and keyboardist/composer KATSU. True to angela's signature style, the track delivers an energetic pop-rock sound at 158 BPM that mirrors the absurd, high-spirited humor of the source material. The song was added to maimai with the MiLK PLUS expansion on September 18, 2018, under the POPS＆アニメ category, but was later removed from the standard arcade lineup on March 18, 2021, making it unavailable on current-generation cabinets.
As a STANDARD-format song from the pre-DX era, all five charts use only Tap, Hold, Slide, and Break notes, no Touch notes are present. The chart suite features three distinct designers: the Expert chart by はっぴー (Happy), the Master chart by 緑風 犬三郎 (Ryokufū Inuzaburō) at a level constant of 10.6 with a Slide-heavy pattern (106 Slide notes), and the Re:Master chart by 玉子豆腐 (Tamago Tofu) at level 12 with 85 Break notes, a notably high Break count that rewards precise timing. In-game title achievements pull directly from Aho-Girl's dialogue and a well-known Japanese folk saying, reinforcing the playful, irreverent tone of the anime.
