* In William Shakespeare's play ''As You Like It'', the character Rosalind disguises herself as a deceitful boy named Ganymede. The song's odd speed (plus its changes) and its deceitful note chart may be an homage to the play.

Song Production Information

Genbu

Hello. I'm Kametaro Kameda, who's portraying Genbu this time.
You can't defeat me. There isn't an opportunity to defeat me. After the match, I'll enthusiastically sing "FANTASY" in the ring. (Today's joke)
When I received the "you're a turtle. A clumsy and slow turtle" request, I became a turtle in my body and heart. I'm sorry, this body's useless.

Since somehow becoming one of the Four Heavenly Kings is difficult, I tried to express a turtle's strengths.

After all, I'm a turtle.
I'm slow. Very slow. That's why it's slow.

After all, I'm a turtle.
I'm sturdy. I have high defensive strength. It brushes off players' attacks.

After all, I'm a turtle.
I'm in the water. Swaying. The notecharts express the flowing water.

After all, I'm a turtle.
The second half is a decisive battle. The rabbit overtakes it. That's called "slowly becoming hostile". (Today's joke)

In other words.
It doesn't matter if it's a good song or not. Anyways, it's a turtle-like song.
It doesn't matter if the charts are enjoyable or not. Anyways, they're charts which can decently prevent ONE MORE from appearing.
Since that was my task, I'm satisfied with my own sense of achievement.
I did it, Kametaro did it, he ended up doing it, I'm sorry.

I could've been a bit more lenient with the BPM and density, but with the appearance of SUDDEN+ and HI-SPEED 5.0, I finally dared to rage against kids in this kind of world who "love fast songs and hate slow songs".
To those skilled enough, by all means, please try to play it without using modifiers.
No HI-SPEED and no modifiers are sometimes good.
I don't know if it's a good idea to do that in this song.

The song title came from
Turtle → green turtle → giant turtle → sea turtle → soup → scary → ghost → something damp → water turtle → water jug → the result of Ganymede and a lonely, magical banana.
He's a so-called idiot.
I'm looking forward to your support in the future.

Video Production Information

The composer of Ganymede gave me keywords for his song concept, and I created this video by adding mechanical parts.

A sacred beast who once protected the land...
Its image is like ancient ruins created with technology which hasn't been discovered yet.
