GAMERS! is a game-themed anime that has some of its music falling into the electronic music genre, just like DRAMAtical Murder.

The heartbreaking Your Lie in April heavily featured classical music. However, it also has a couple of pop music tunes that would equally work for a rhythm game, especially the opening theme "Hikaru Nara." It is not often that classical music would be featured in a rhythm game, but the performances that Kaori and Kōsei give are a refreshing take on older, classical tunes. Not only does this interpretation make them more fun to listen to in general, but it is also more appropriate for the gameplay involved in a rhythm game.

Takt Op. Destiny involved its protagonists being powered by classical music. Grotesque monsters called D2 would try to appear to stop and destroy any sources of music at all. This led to incredible, epic battles for viewers and listeners to watch unfold.

The many energetic, action-filled themes would be perfect for players to play along to and relive the action from their associated episodes and characters. It could be difficult for players new to the rhythm game genre to pick up and play, but seasoned veteran players would have a lot of fun trying to match all of the beats properly.
