I felt more motivated to work this time. This is an original song, and its theme is Japan.<br>
And yet it feels IIDX-like. It's somehow difficult.<br>
As a result, the lyrics brought out the melody, which immediately completed this song after they were conceived.<br>
Hiroyuki wrote them afterwards, but it isn't full-size due to time constraints, so we prepared an exclusive arrangement for IIDX.<br>
So the game's notecharts should also be interesting~.

One day, we created a song under the JAPAN genre, so I was asked to write the lyrics. Even saying "Japan" in one word, I thought this theme was too big, so I decided on "Oosanbashi" early on.<br>
At that time, I strolled around Yamashita Park and just learned about the new Oosanbashi. The view from Oosanbashi is the greatest, and you can view everything which symbolizes Yokohama. However, I noticed that Yokohama uses many Western words.<br>
Landmark Tower, Bay Bridge, Marine Tower, etc.<br>
Well, that's also a Japanese thing, but anyways, they didn't use katakana or show any names. That's why it was a bit difficult....<br>
I went to Oosanbashi many times, and stayed there for many hours.<br>
I finally completed the lyrics and lovely melody while feeling inspired.<br>
This is actually a short version of Oosanbashi.<br>
It includes numbers 1 and 3, with number 2 edited out.<br>
I hope to release the full version someday.<br>
Also, the video which plays during the gameplay, was actually filmed at Oosanbashi. It was very embarrassing while filming, but I never thought I'd sing this song in Oosanbashi, so it was quite enjoyable.<br>
I was impressed with the completed version, which looked like a promotional video.<br>
I'm grateful to [[Gyo Eguchi|VJ GYO]] and F-FLY for filming and editing it.

I'm really thankful for your response to my difficult "Japan" theme, just as I imagined. It's very Japan-like. The beautiful song & lyrics are perfect.
 
Why am I obsessed with Japan? I like "Kokin Wakashu" and songs with lyrics about seasons and scenery (I'm not familiar with them at all), but why not make a modern-styled song for it? And that's how I came up with it.<br>
Instead of a typical love song, I wanted a Japanese song about Japan's unique four seasons and beautiful scenery. Like "staring at the goodness of Japan".
 
Therefore, by showing Japanese typography in the video, I wanted you to see not just the beauty of Japanese sounds, but also the way it's beautifully written in "hiragana" and "kanji".<br>
Also, I aimed to create this video with a summer atmosphere feeling.
 
I was personally satisfied by the music and visuals!<br>
By all means, I want to make it again, but what do you think?<br>
Next time, I want more songs about Kyoto written in a waka style.
