"Ievan Polkka" is a song sung by Hatsune Miku based on the Finnish folk song of the same name which is arranged by Otomania. It is the most recurring song used in the Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA series, often being used in the games' tutorial mode.

Game appearances[]

"Ievan Polkka" first appeared in the first Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA where it can be unlocked by clearing "VOC@LOID in Love". The song was also featured in Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA Arcade and was also one of the first songs in the initial version of the arcade game as with the other songs previously featured in the first Project DIVA game. When the arcade game was updated to Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA Arcade Future Tone, an Extra Extreme difficulty rhythm game chart for the song was added on 7 April 2016. The song would later be featured in Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA Dreamy Theater with the exact same rhythm game from the first Project DIVA, although it uses the PV from Project DIVA Arcade.

From then on, every game in the main series featured this song in their tutorial modes, featuring derivative character Hachune Miku shaking a leek in reference to the original PV. "Ievan Polkka" was also featured in Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA Dreamy Theater 2nd, the PlayStation 3 port of Project DIVA 2nd, featuring the same rhythm game from the original Project DIVA and Dreamy Theater. In addition to the beginner tutorial, Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA F 2nd featured an advanced tutorial titled "Ievan Polkka (Extreme)" which can be unlocked by clearing the Hard difficulty chart on any song.

In Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA Future Tone, "Ievan Polkka" was included in the Future Sound song pack while its Extra Extreme chart was included in the 1st Encore Pack DLC. The song reprised its role as tutorial music in Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA MegaMix, though it now uses an instrumental version of Otomania's 2019 arrangement.
