Firstly, I was able to sing CANDY with the greatest feeling (^^) It's a cute song, so I did my best to sing the lyrics and song without losing♪
=== DanceDanceRevolution ===
==== NAOKI ====
The instrumental version was used in DDR MAX, but due to many fan requests, the long-awaited vocal version is included here.
Riyu Kosaka performed the vocals and lyrics to CANDY♥, a version with a new rock tone and stronger arrangement, which is a number I quite like from the songs I recently created.
=== pop'n music ===
==== NAOKI ====
I really wanted Riyu Kosaka to provide a comment, but she was super busy at her high school festival, so NAOKI wrote this on her behalf, although CANDY♥ doesn't seem to suit him.
I created CANDY♥ from my interpretation of a cute & pop, but exciting song. Actually, it's recently one of my favorite songs. When I completed this song, something in me changed.<br>
And it feels like BRE∀K DOWN!.<br>
I was unexpectedly free beyond my obsessions.<br>
It's sometimes unreasonable to put too much effort in anything, so I want to live naturally. I wonder if CANDY♥ is a radical song which included such feelings. It'd be nice if many people as possible played this song with happy feelings~.

The original version of the song, "CANDY", debuted on [[CS DDRMAX NA|DDRMAX DanceDanceRevolution]] and was entirely instrumental. The song's fun combination of pop, rock and a fast-paced tempo gets a new sugar coating with cute Japanese pop styled vocals. With its sweeter appeal, everyone will be jumping up and down for some candy.

I'm delighted for my pop'n debut!<br>
With a flat face and surprisingly beautiful legs, this mysterious creature loves to dance.<br>
Let's also dance today with my handmade hood!

I selected Kaera as number two from the many ZUKIN races. But, I couldn't forget the other races, so I had them occasionally appear. It was very fun drawing the images of various characters with the treasured pictures I received as examples. Salute to the DDR team from the other side. Thank you very much!
 
Her appearance is very delicate, so it was very difficult to express her ugly cuteness (sorry if my statement is rude...).<br>
She's a nice character.... (seriously)

When I first heard CANDY☆, I felt that it expressed a bright and driving sensation. I wanted to show a romantic atmosphere through the appearance of the characters, JOHNNY and his lover LORRAINE (her first appearance), but the person who created them was embarrassed (laughs).
 
The colors also seem pop and cute, so I'm satisfied with the laidback result in a good way.
