beatmania IIDX 5th Style is the 5th game in the beatmania IIDX series of music video games. It was released in arcades by Konami in 2001. The game features 35 new songs, five of which are hidden. New features introduced in this version are auto-scratch (allows the player to focus on the 7 keys instead of the turntable), as well as two more Hi-Speed settings (HS2 and HS3.) 5th Style's songlist featured the first songs that would later become "flashing 7s", here differentiated from regular 7s with a kanji meaning "forbidden".
Notable songs from this version include:
A home version of 5th style was released in Japan for the PlayStation 2 on August 30, 2001.

The game also features a Beginner mode, "Drill Mode" and is supported by the PS2 Hard Drive to improve loading times.
