Japanese

JUMPIN' UP 掴むよ すべてこの手に
前だけみつめて GOING MY WAY
FEELIN' GOOD いつでも 道はあるから 振り返らないでSAILING AWAY

STARTIN' UP 進むよ 踏み出す一歩
はじまる世界へ TAKIN' MY WAY
LONELY NIGHT ひとりで寂しいときも つづく空があるFLYING AWAY

退屈なNOISY DAYS 辟易
キラめいたSOMETHING FUN 見つけたい
だけどいつだってCLOUDY HEART
立ち止まり 迷い続く EVERY NIGHT

"可能性"みえないものだから
カタチにかえていくのはMY SELF

STARTIN' UP 進むよ すこし怖いよ
でも踏み出すんだ TAKIN' MY WAY
LONELY NIGHT ひとりで寂しいときも つづく空があるFLYING AWAY

満たされないのは 誰のせい？
TROUBLEFULな日々 蹴飛ばし
脱ぎ捨てよう 今 新しい
ドアを開けて 駆け出すんだ RIGHT NOW
LET'S SEARCH FOR A BRANDNEW DAY

JUMPIN' UP 掴むよ すべてこの手に
描く理想地図 TAKIN' MY WAY
FOLLOW ME この道 明日がつづく 未来めざすから GOING MY WAY

Song Production Information

HHH

I'm Ryu☆, who doesn't wear similar glasses as the five HHH×MM×ST members.

I tried forming an extremely long cryptic-like unit.
It's in a packed form, like in recent, trending tokusatsu media.
If you want to make it packed, not only do you need to make the song and lyrics packed, but also in the singing, dancing, and PV.

It's nice to make such an all-star Thanksgiving-like packed song.
I think there's various things to comment on, and it'd be great if you tweet them on Twitter.
It's be great if you tweet them with the #BEMANI #HHHMMST hashtags.

Well anyways, it's a new unit! Take another step forward and Follow Tomorrow!

---

I'm Dai., who eats ice in HHH×MM×ST's juice.

I tried being 2D with repeated vertical barrages in other BEMANI game series, and it's my first appearance in a IIDX video since "Mahoroba".

This time, we tried to make "Follow Tomorrow" with a clear déjà vu feeling, and I hope you'll enjoy its "new-comer music unit image"!
I hope we'll be able to perform it live at Ajinomoto Stadium someday...

By the way, the last chorus has a fun choreography you can dance to, so everyone please learn it and dance!
Also, Ryu☆ and Halka secretly appear in its movie.
Did you find them?

Well anyways, it's a new unit! Take another step forward and Follow Tomorrow!

---

I'm Halka, who shows off her glasses in HHH×MM×ST.

So, we're somehow a large group of five.
We're active in various combinations of groups such as Auridy, Cream puff, Another Infinity, and this is a gorgeous unit you can enjoy with all its members!

This is my first time appearing in a movie♪

Next time, I'd like to create a song with Starving Trancer and Halka that's overflowing with freedom.

Well anyways, it's a new unit! Take another step forward and Follow Tomorrow!

MM (Mayumi Morinaga)

I'm MM (Mayumi Morinaga), who's the main dish in the seeds of HHH×MM×ST's umeboshi.

This time, I was able to sing a song produced by HHH!
I was somehow able to dance for the first time (on-screen)!!

During the filming day, the choreographer Dai. always guided and encouraged me, and I felt young....
I'd like to take this opportunity to try and challenge dancing more!!

I was really able to have various experiences through this song.
Weeeell, more and more, we're jumpi'n up!!!

Well anyways, it's a new unit! Take another step forward and Follow Tomorrow!

ST (Starving Trancer)

I'm ST (Starving Trancer), who's named the handsome prince of HHH×MM×ST.

During IIDX18, I was able to collaborate with L.E.D. on "XANADU OF TWO", and this time, my tension really increased when I was able to participate again in IIDX19.
I wanted to be really annoying and boast about it at a bar. It's great being hated!!

I was playing the white keyboard in "Follow Tomorrow"'s movie.
I also aimed for this song to be catchy and shining.
Doesn't the intro and outro have fun rhythms when you play it both in the game and in real life?
By all means, everyone please keep playing it!!

Well anyways, it's a new unit! Take another step forward and Follow Tomorrow!

Video Production Information

bobnob

I'm bobnob, who's in charge of this video, and isn't confident in his abs.

This is my first time creating a BEMANI video.
I made a fun singing and dancing video from the concept of "shining, cool, and cute".
In particular, the unison dancing between Dai. and Mayumi Morinaga is a must-see!

Well anyways, it's a new unit! Take another step forward and Follow Tomorrow!

Choreography Information

Dai.

Everyone, I love DanEvo!

I'm Dai., who's famous for wearing sunglasses, being plump, shining, wearing Japanese clothes, and showing off more than the vocalists.

So, HHH's long-awaited wish to appear in DanEvo has come true! Wow (clapping)!

It might not be familiar to those who don't play beatmania IIDX, but this time, I was able to dance to "Follow Tomorrow", a song included in beatmania IIDX 19 Lincle.
Actually, when DanEvo was first released, HHH wondered "whether Follow Tomorrow could somehow be crossed over...", and then the DanEvo staff unexpectedly called us.
My delicious dance part in beatmania IIDX 19 Lincle's exclusive movie, plus the new choreography, was able to be crossed over to DanEvo.

I'm fully grateful to the DanEvo staff for choosing this song to be crossed over among the many BEMANI songs.

Well, the choreography is essential, and the impressive choreography from the movie was retained, while I obsessed over aspects like "how can you enjoy dancing to it?" and "is it fun to play as a game in DanEvo?".
There's some quite complicated choreography, but I hope you'll carefully learn and enjoy it.
The key point is to quickly hit the right-angle stream in the "egaku risou chizu" part!

Well anyways, DanEvo is new! Take another step forward and Follow Tomorrow!
