Introduction
CHUNITHM (Japanese: チュウニズム) is an arcade music game developed by SEGA. The main gameplay is to match the rhythm of the music and perform corresponding operations by touching the keyboard or raising your hand. The game name is the compound word from "chuni (中二)" and "rhythm".
CHUNITHM started operations in Japan on July 16, 2015. The game has multiple built-in songs with different difficulty charts for players to play. Players can play several tracks by inserting a coin (Credit). The game regularly updates its version, UI, music, charts, game mechanics and other content through network updates. With the version change, CHUNITHM was updated to the NEW!! version on November 4, 2021. Along with this update is a new frame that supports 120fps and has a yellow machine shell. The versions since the NEW!! version are therefore also called the new frame period. Some old frame machines that are still in the CHUNITHM PARADISE LOST version will cease online service from February 1, 2023. Players use "gold frame" and "silver frame" to refer to the new and old versions of the frame in operation respectively. The current version is the sixth version "CHUNITHM LUMINOUS PLUS" in the new frame period.
Starting from November 26, 2020, CHUNITHM began operating outside Japan, and launched a special overseas version of "CHUNITHM SUPERSTAR" in the United States, Malaysia, Thailand, Singapore, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau and other regions, which is now offline. Since March 3, 2022, SEGA has launched the current international version (CHUNITHM International Ver.) based on the Japanese CHUNITHM NEW!! version and continues to update it. The current version is CHUNITHM LUMINOUS.
CHUNITHM has a wide range of tracks, including not only popular pop music, Touhou Project and VOCALOID/niconico songs, but also a wide variety of copyrighted music and high-quality original music. The game often carries out collab activities with popular TV dramas, fans, music circles, games, etc. It also frequently carries out collab activities and music exchanges with the other two arcade rhythm games developed by SEGA, maimai and O.N.G.E.K.I..

- HOLD : Indicated by a gradient golden yellow. Players need to hit anywhere within the corresponding keyboard range when the head of HOLD coincides with the judgment line, and keep holding it until the tail of HOLD leaves the judgment line.
- SLIDE : Indicated by gradient blue. Players need to hit anywhere within the corresponding keyboard range when SLIDE's head coincides with the judgment line. Keep pressing and slide along with the changes in SLIDE until SLIDE ends. Blue nodes may appear during SLIDE, keep pressing to complete.
