Overview
ヤミナベ!!!! (Yaminabe!!!!) is a high-energy VOCALOID track from cosMo@暴走P (cosMo@Bousou-P), the veteran producer best known for extreme-BPM works such as 初音ミクの消失 (The Disappearance of Hatsune Miku). Featured in maimai でらっくす CiRCLE beginning December 24, 2025, the song originally emerged from Project Sekai: Colorful Stage! feat. 初音ミク's "1st Super High Difficulty Song Contest – Proseka ULTIMATE," where it was selected as a winning entry. This maimai appearance marks the song's first rhythm-game debut outside of Project Sekai. Clocking in at a blistering 264 BPM (with tempo shifts ranging from 75 to 300) and a length of 2:08, the track epitomizes cosMo's signature style: dense, breakneck synth melodies overlaid with Hatsune Miku's processed vocals, all driven by a lyrical theme built around the "yaminabe" (dark hot pot) concept, a free-for-all party where everyone tosses random ingredients into a communal pot. The lyrics mirror this chaos, shouting to cram in everything you love (and everything you hate), and the Master chart, designed by サファ太 (Safata), echoes the sentiment with a deliberate Break-note gimmick that directly quotes the song's own numbers-based wordplay. Initially locked behind Circle Festa Season 2 as a reward for the winning team, the song saw general release on March 19, 2026 with the CiRCLE PLUS update, and could also be unlocked early by playing with someone who already owned it through a conduction-style system.

Trivia
- ヤミナベ!!!! was originally composed for Project Sekai: Colorful Stage! feat. 初音ミク's '1st Super High Difficulty Song Contest – Proseka ULTIMATE' and was selected as one of the winning entries.
- This is the first rhythm game outside Project Sekai to feature the track. cosMo@暴走P remarked on the port with the tongue-in-cheek comment 'またお前か' ('You again?'), a self-aware nod to his recurring presence in maimai's song library.
- The song title ヤミナベ (Yaminabe) literally translates to 'dark hot pot,' a Japanese party game where participants each bring a mystery ingredient to throw into a shared pot, only discovering what is inside once it is cooked.
- The Master chart (designed by サファ太) contains a Break-note gimmick tied to the lyrics: Break notes appear at numbered positions 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10. Position 6's Break lands at note index 5 instead of 6, referencing the lyric '何かひとつ飛ばしすぎてない？間違えてはいない？' ('Did we skip one too many? Is there a mistake?').
- The number gimmick continues: '9' is played as 1 + 8 (two notes that sum to 9), and '10' is played as 4 + 6, directly matching the lyrical wordplay.
- cosMo@暴走P also handled the music video production in addition to composition, arrangement, and lyrics.
- The song's BPM is listed as 264 but shifts dynamically between 75 and 300 during the track, typical of cosMo's high-variance compositional style.
- The song was initially exclusive to players who were members of a team that participated in Circle Festa Season 2 and whose team won (the winning team was 初音ミクの暴走). Players who missed the event could unlock it by playing together with someone who already had the song, similar to previous conduction-style unlock systems in maimai.
- The jacket art, credited to the wiki, features a surreal, colorful illustration that matches the song's chaotic 'dump everything in the pot' theme.
- The Expert chart was designed by はっぴー (Happy), while the Master chart was designed by サファ太 (Safata), two of maimai's most recognizable note designers.
