Music Comment

A melancholic Eurobeat appears in pop'n! What did you see past your tears?

Song Production Information

beatmania IIDX

dj TAKA

This song was created for pop'n music13 Carnival.
I wondered what kind of comment I wrote for pop'n13, so when I looked at it in the official website, I somehow saw wac's comment in the very last line, "please include a movie for it when it's crossed over to IIDX.", and there isn't one!!

What, I didn't know about this at all... you should've directly told me!
I could've included a completely recreated movie to conclude wac's melancholic story, along with his ParaPara dance (T-T)

So, if you're interested in wac's melancholic story, please check out pop'n music13 Carnival's official website.
I can't read it without crying (T-T)

pop'n music

dj TAKA

Due to my busy schedule, I always create songs at the very end of pop'n's final production stage.
Well, this time, what should I make? I was nervous about what kinds of unreasonable requests I'd receive for Carnival, but since there were enough songs with that theme, I was asked to make something completely unrelated.

Yes wac, I understand. During the final production stage, there are too many songs following the theme, so you want songs which have nothing to do with that theme.
Alright~, I fully understand how wac feels. Since wac's back was so melancholic that it brought out a sad atmosphere like "even though it's in the final production stage, it isn't finished at all, and I don't have time to somehow think about your song", this time, I created melancholic Euro dedicated to wac.

Firstly, I started by changing my computer's desktop background from my cute dog Rai, to wac's melancholic back.
I completed the intro from here.
Next, after drinking too much, I went near the toilet at ○○○○○○gaseki Station, where wac went "OTL", to try and get inspiration.
I completed the first verse from here.
Furthermore, I tried to synchronize this song with the image of shaking hands with the elementary school student who hit a big home run at the elementary school next to wac's rented room, and brilliantly broke the glass window of wac's room.
I completed the pre-chorus from there.
Finally, I intended to return to Shinjuku from Shimokitazawa, but I missed the train and soaked myself in Hakone-Yumoto's hot springs.
And then I completed the chorus from there.

This is how "moon" was born.

Video Production Information

Untranslated.

Character Information

YUKI is now a teenage fashion leader!
She seems even more beautiful than before.

CHIHI

Her original NEUTRAL animation was very cute, so I started a brand-new idol life for her based on it.
The key point is that there's now a background with a YUKI set in the studio.
I thought about including idol-like choreography in her animations, but since Mary had them at the same time, it was difficult for me, as someone who can't do idol choreography, or a dancer's dance.
I wonder~ if I was able to bring out a similar atmosphere to the original YUKI, like her competitive spirit in the MISS animation.

Melancholic.... melancholic.... it's hopeless~. I painfully get it now.
When you're in love, you wonder~ if it's someone you like.
I'd do it if I could, but it's difficult and there's many sad things~.
This time, it's a bit heavy~.
