2020
This tournament was held between maimai でらっくす Splash, CHUNITHM PARADISE, and オンゲキ R.E.D.. The format was heavily affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, with the tournament being held as a live stream and players outside of the Greater Tokyo area being located in their local arcades. Additionally, the "final" songs - these being BREaK! BREaK! BREaK!, ANU, and Viyella's Scream - were given as exhibition songs and not competitive.
During the final event, maimai でらっくす Splash PLUS and オンゲキ R.E.D. PLUS were both announced.
