(Yes, I know the song just came out on Switch. Yes, I'm insane. Let's not dwell on it.)

Chimi Moryo is a song composed by Laur, a big artist very well-known in rhythm game scenes for songs like Exitium and ATAMA WARUI from WACCA, Grievous Lady from Arcaea (which he composed alongside Team Grimoire), A Lasting Promise from SOUND VOLTEX and many other fan-favorite miscellaneous songs like Sound Chimera. Chimi Moryo was composed to serve as the third and final song in Taiko no Tatsujin Nijiiro 2021's Choujin Dan course (which is the second most difficult dan course).

When Chimi Moryo was revealed in September 2021, Laur made a Tweet talking about how since it's his first song in Taiko no Tatsujin he put a lot of effort into composing it. He mentioned a pretty fun fact, too: Taiko no Tatsujin was his very first rhythm game! Apparently, it's a game he cherishes very much. What an honor! (source:   / 1435477884295020547  )

The title of the song refers to monsters (youkai) of the mountains and the rivers. I'm not very well-versed with this concept since I'm not a youkai nerd or a Japanese mythology nerd, but from what I understand, it refers to both obake and spirits that roam these areas. Pretty cool, huh? I love how Laur worked a very distinct Japanese sound into what is otherwise a song full of that which makes his own music unique.

As for the chart, uh... it sure is a chart. Complicated rhythms that combine 16th notes, triplet 16th notes, triplet 8th notes, and 32nd notes as well as two 260 BPM sections that scroll at half-speed to give the illusion of a slowdown while actually speeding up (and being jam-packed with red notes and long strings) make this song a very formidable one and a very difficult one to Full Combo. As expected of a Choujin boss! It's nothing I hadn't done before; this is my second Full Combo of it ever, but MAN, it had been a while. I hope you enjoy the video!
