Historia y análisis
Español →"Gun Rock" is a Banya Production track that debuted in Pump It Up NX at a relaxed 104 BPM. It is actually a remake of the Exceed 2 opening theme, a tune that would later resurface as a playable cut in Fiesta. Despite the name, it has nothing to do with the Saiyuki Reload Gunlock anime.
▸ Origins
"Gun Rock" entered the series in Pump It Up NX, credited to Banya Production and running at a gentle 104 BPM. The melody isn't brand new: it is a reworking of the Exceed 2 opening theme, a piece that was eventually added as a short playable track in Fiesta. One common misconception is worth clearing up: the title has no connection whatsoever to the Saiyuki Reload Gunlock anime, the resemblance is purely coincidental.
▸ Single charts
The Single lineup is generous. S5 is a basic Normal chart built around two-note steps, perfect for beginners. S9, the old Hard chart, only asks you to watch out for two-note steps and the occasional twisting siderun; it sat at level 11 through Prime 2 before being lowered to 9 in XX. S17 stands out because notes start pouring in from the intro, with plenty of 32nd-note drills, yet the low BPM and the short three-to-five-note bursts make it a great practice chart for triples and drills, in XX, clearing it with SS or better earns the DRILL Lv.3 title. S20 is notorious for its finish: a flood of 16th-note triples capped by quadruple notes that long held a reputation as one of the cruelest endings in the game. PHOENIX softened it by adding more ticks to the preceding hold note and turning those final quadruples into triples.
▸ Double charts and Quest Zone
D9 is an approachable freestyle that mainly tests weight shifting and leg splits; it too dropped from 11 to 9 in XX. D18 is essentially S17 spread across both pads, with added twists and weight shifts that make it a touch trickier. The crown jewel is D24, designed by JKD, who said he literally wanted the chart to evoke a gun and a rock. He built it as a level 24, but Andamiro originally rated it 22 until XX restored the 24. It features 32nd-note round-trip stairs and a closing run of quadruple notes that punishes mercilessly, the forced 2x speed it once carried was removed starting in Fiesta. The Quest Zone hosts two missions: SUNNY's S19 (XX 1.03.0), which asks you to clear with five bads or fewer, and AEVILUX's D21 "Shot gun rock" (XX 2.01.0), where you must collect at least 18 mine items.
