What's an "underwater family"!? According to Manami Fujino, who's in charge of the lyrics and vocals of Parquets, there's an American cartoon like the "○○ Family" series, and it seems that Fujino's story is based on that image. I personally also like Parquets' arrangement, and learned various things during its recording.

When we created this, Parquets was in the middle of "a boom in selfishly creating fictional drama and anime theme songs". Well, "Suichuukazoku no theme" was born under the (long!) theme of "a theme song for an adventure drama about a family who travels in a submarine across worldwide seas, which aired on American TV during the 1960s".<br>

The title and melody of Suichuukazoku was decided from the beginning. It's a 6/8 house song. The submarine home and dock, and the small scouting boat designs and opening logo, immediately developed in my mind at once. Only the song became a reality, but I'm excited to create the main part someday, and it's just a matter of time. Someone please give me a budget.<br>

When I created this song, I firmly believed that "pop is 3 minutes long!". Despite randomly expanding, it compacts and settles down. Who probably imagined that this song would fortunately be included in pop'n in full size? Come to think of it, I still haven't heard whether it's included yet. Although it's a hidden song, you don't have to hide it from me, right (laughs)? Huh. σ(..)<br>

Please add mini ramen to my starchy fried rice. As well as dumplings. Let's eat. I'm getting fat. ← I don't like this. ← I don't like that it's probably too late now. ← But I don't like it. ← I won't eat it. ← I don't like that either.

Well, to deceive your enemies, you first have allies, or rather, there are no enemies. It's great that there's a relationship that can be read as a worthy opponent.<br>

This song was around when I first started working for pop'n during 3, when I was asked to gather candidate songs by new artists, and when I first listened to this song, I was thinking "can I create charts for it", but I was exclusively in charge of HYPER charts back then, so I was envious of this song.<br>

As time passes by, pop'n has changed for better or worse, and it might've slightly changed from the charts I wanted to create back then, but I was happy that I played the charts that I created myself. Sorry to keep you waiting, myself from 3 years ago.
