Welcome to ParaParaWiki!

ParaParaWiki is soon to be the most comprehensive resource on Para dancing and music — maintained by the community, for the community.

Here you'll find information on:

Eventually we will also add information on clubs, events, dancers, and even dance moves.

Would you like to contribute?

  • This document contains guidelines for how to build pages for this wiki.
  • To start new pages on individual songs, use the song template. For an example, look at Night of Fire.
  • Some things we need at the moment are:
    • Video links to YouTube (or other sites)
    • Anything TraPara-related (videos, albums, songs, etc.)
    • Artist info (biographical things, personal website, etc.)
    • Club info (history, location, what events they have)
    • Game info (games that have featured ParaPara, i.e. PPP and DanEvo, or games that have had songs with ParaPara routines)
    • Label info (whatever seems relevant)
    • Circle info (your circle here!)
    • International compilations and events
    • Transliteration and translation of Japanese text wherever possible
    • Anything else you think is missing!
  • If you see an error in one of the pages, please consider signing up and fixing it! A lot of the data on this site was automatically generated, so there will be errors. For example, there are many TechPara/Hyper Techno songs classified as ParaPara/Eurobeat, and some vice-versa. You might also notice two separate pages for the same songs — feel free to merge them as long as they really have the same song title and artist.

Remember, anyone from the community is welcome to contribute to this site, so if there's something you think should be there, please add it!

Sources

The following pages are excellent sources of information that we're using to build our own resource, so we'd like to credit and thank them here. If you can't find what you're looking for here, consider looking on one of these sites (and then adding the info here if you find it).

  • Eurobeat Prime
  • ParaParaMania
    • This has a number of albums that aren't on this site yet but we'll be adding them as we go (or you can add them yourself).
  • parapara2.info
    • Sadly blocked outside Japan, but they're the original source for the vast majority of the video info on this site, so we'd like to credit and thank them here specifically!
  • ParaParaLovers
    • Collected information on who danced on many videos.
  • Our videos are being collected from a number of channels, but we'd like to give special thanks to Avex and SEBofficial for putting many of the classic routines online during COVID-19, as well as Starfire and SEN for posting their own koushuukai videos and NeoNeo for posting SEF's koushuukai!
