Song Production Information
KEYBOARDMANIA
The burning Middle Eastern sound makes me feel high!
(In the style of a macho man dancing and performing aerobics)

I thought about changing the song title to something like "East Manhattan Exercise Song", but I'm glad I didn't do it.
Video Production Information
SIRO
The character design was created by piu KOHA from a certain pop'n stage. I asked YUZ, who's famous for KEYBOARD, to edit this video. I created the movie materials. About the rough polygons... please pretend you didn't see them.
I'm happy that they were also able to appear in the KEYBOARD poster.
Character Information
Sometimes they get a "beep beep beep" call... and those carefree, innocent guys come down to Earth. They might be brothers (?).
Chobi.
I was in charge of ASPARA, who were crossed over from KEYBOARDMANIA.
While creating ASPARA-SEIJIN in various ways, I also received information about this duo from my seniors, who were very familiar with them.
I looked for important secrets, such as how the ASPARA-SEIJIN were born.
How was it? I'd be happy if you could feel my thoughts and feelings towards ASPARA-SEIJIN by watching their movements.
