Overview

YU-MU is a Touhou Project arrange performed by 岸田教団＆THE明星ロケッツ (Kishida Kyoudan & THE Akeboshi Rockets), added to maimai on February 4, 2016 with the PiNK version. The track reworks 幽夢～ Inanimate Dream, the final boss theme of Yuuka Kazami from the 1998 PC-98 title 東方幻想郷～ Lotus Land Story, the fourth game in the Touhou series. Arranged by band leader Kisida with vocals by Ichigo, YU-MU first appeared on the circle's 2007 debut album 幻想事変. In maimai, the song was originally accompanied by an animated PV taken from the fan-made 東方活動写真館 (Touhou Katsudou Kinemakan) video series, specifically the segment 東方花神楽. That video was removed during the MiLK version update due to rights circumstances, replaced by a static jacket illustrated by 蒲焼うなぎ (Kabayaki Unagi) sourced from the band's 2013 best-of compilation きしだきょうだんのベスト!. Chart-wise, YU-MU offers a level-13 Master (constant 13.2) designed by rioN and a level-10+ Expert (constant 10.6) designed by 某S氏, both representative of the PiNK era's Touhou arrange style, energetic rock with brisk slide patterns and dense tap streams.

Trivia

幽夢～ Inanimate Dream, the source material for YU-MU, is the final boss theme of Yuuka Kazami from 東方幻想郷～ Lotus Land Story (1998), the fourth game in the Touhou Project series.
YU-MU was originally released on the 2007 doujin album 幻想事変 (Gensou Jihen), the debut album of 岸田教団＆THE明星ロケッツ.
The in-game jacket uses artwork from the band's 2013 compilation きしだきょうだんのベスト! rather than from 幻想事変, likely to avoid duplicate jacket art across maimai's song library.
The animated PV that originally played during YU-MU in maimai was taken from 東方活動写真館第二幕 (2010), a fan-made Touhou animation. It was removed as of the MiLK version update and replaced with the static jacket.
In Asian English releases of maimai, the artist name is displayed as 'kisida kyoudan &The akeboshi rockets'.
YU-MU has undergone substantial level adjustments across versions: Expert rose from 9 (PiNK) → 9+ (DX+) → 10+ (UNiVERSE+), and Master rose from 10+ (PiNK) → 11 (DX+) → 12+ (Splash) → 13 (UNiVERSE+). The Advanced chart was bumped from 6 to 7 starting with FESTiVAL.
The Master chart (level 13, constant 13.2) was designed by rioN, a charter known for many Touhou and original maimai charts. The Expert chart (10+, constant 10.6) was designed by 某S氏.
The song's lyrics, written by Kisida and sung by Ichigo, evoke dream imagery, sunflowers, and mirages, thematically tied to Yuuka Kazami's identity as the flower master of the four seasons.
