Overview

夢花火 (Yume Hanabi) is a maimai original song by the doujin music circle 豚乙女 (Butaotome), with composition and arrangement by comp, vocals by ranko, and a music video by yama_ko. The track arrived with the MURASAKi PLUS update on June 22, 2017, launching as the very first Challenge Track in the maimai series, a limited-time unlockable that converted to a standard track on July 6 of the same year. At 186 BPM, the song pairs a driving pop-rock instrumental with ranko's energetic vocals, capturing the exuberant atmosphere of a summer fireworks festival. The lyrics revolve around the fleeting beauty of fireworks and the communal joy of festival dancing, with a recurring wordplay on "fools who spin" versus "fools who only watch." 夢花火's Master chart underwent notable difficulty re-evaluations across maimai versions: originally rated 12+ at release, it climbed to 13 in でらっくす PLUS and settled at 13+ from Splash onward, reflecting the game's shifting difficulty curve. Designed by 某S氏 (Bou S shi), the chart is recognized for its dense patterning and high Break note density relative to its level constant. Beyond maimai, the song was imported into CHUNITHM AMAZON in March 2019 and later into オンゲキ bright MEMORY in August 2022, making it one of the most widely circulated 豚乙女 contributions across SEGA's rhythm game ecosystem. In Asian English releases, the song is romanized as YumeHANABI and the artist credited as BUTAOTOME.
