Huh? Where's the samurai? Well, please don't deeply think about that.<br>
Firstly, there's an extreme number of notes... extreme? Oh, I created a song that I still can't play... even though I think about that, I keep doing it.<br>
I wonder how many people can play this song... I'd like to possibly see someone play it.<br>
It isn't described as rain, isn't it commonly known as streams?<br>
Well, please try to play it like a samurai. Huh?

It's like a man casually dressed + holding a thin sword, and holding a long jitte + wearing a bun, who is furiously dashing through a street filled with people in places such as Edo Wonderland, Toei Kyoto Studio Park, and Ooedo Onsen Monogatari!<br>
It won't actually happen, but even if it did, doesn't this BGM perfectly match this situation!?<br>
... That's what "1st samurai" makes me think of it.

Even though her kimono was just rolled up, she had a cool face to the end, and glanced towards a stylish girl.<br>
... It feels like a song with a high difficulty level, so please stay composed until the end. I hope you'll play it with such attitude.
