All songs

Overview

前前前世 (Zenzenzense) is a song by Japanese rock band RADWIMPS, composed and written by frontman Yojiro Noda. It served as the lead theme for Makoto Shinkai's 2016 animated box-office phenomenon 君の名は。 (Your Name), appearing as an insert song during the film's emotional climax. The track was released on RADWIMPS' eighth studio album 人間開花 and also appears in a slightly shorter "movie ver." on the film's soundtrack. In the maimai series, 前前前世 debuted on maimai MURASAKi PLUS on June 22, 2017 under the POPS＆アニメ (POPS & ANIME) category. It was removed from the song list in maimai でらっくす PLUS (January 23, 2020), likely due to lapsed licensing for the Your Name property, but was subsequently revived in maimai でらっくす Splash (September 17, 2020), making it the first non-April Fools song ever to be restored to the maimai arcade series after removal. Upon revival, the jacket art was updated to a new design distinct from the original release. The Master chart, designed by Jack at level 13 (constant 13.0), features a dense 697-note layout with a heavy Slide-note emphasis (120 slides), while the Expert chart by はっぴー (level 9) offers a more accessible preview of the song's driving 190 BPM energy.

Trivia

前前前世 was composed specifically for Makoto Shinkai's film 君の名は。 (Your Name) by RADWIMPS frontman Yojiro Noda, who also wrote the lyrics.
Two versions of the song exist: the 'original ver.' from RADWIMPS' album 人間開花 (which includes additional lyrics after the second verse) and the 'movie ver.' used in the film and SEGA music games such as maimai and CHUNITHM.
The title 前前前世 (Zenzenzense) translates roughly to 'previous previous previous life,' a direct reference to the film's body-swapping and time-travel themes.
前前前世 is the first non-April Fools song in maimai history to be removed and later revived. It was delisted in でらっくす PLUS (January 23, 2020) and restored in でらっくす Splash (September 17, 2020).
Upon revival in Splash, the song received a new jacket illustration, replacing the original MURASAKi PLUS-era artwork. Players who had previously unlocked the song found their records reset, and the song was excluded from certain completion plates (菫, 舞, 覇者).
In the Asian and Chinese versions of maimai DX, 前前前世 was also removed and later revived, in the Asian build at でらっくす Splash launch and in the Chinese build at 舞萌DX 2021 launch.
The Master chart (designed by Jack, level 13) contains 697 total notes, of which 120 are Slide notes, an unusually high Slide count for the version era, giving the chart a flowing, airy feel that mirrors the song's melodic swells.
The Expert chart (designed by はっぴー, level 9) serves as a stepping stone into the song's fast 190 BPM rhythm before the jump to Master.
Before the DX-era level rebalance, the Master chart was rated 11+ in MURASAKi PLUS and later rose through 12+ to its current 13 (from PRiSM+ onward).
In CHUNITHM, the song's artist credit reads 'RADWIMPS「君の名は。」' and the background was changed to a generic STAR background in CHUNITHM LUMINOUS (February 2024).
