Wow, that's amazing!! Amazing!! (≧▽≦) | |||
I helped a bit with the previous jubeat game, so this is my second time working with KONAMI, but wow, I was excited to sing a KONAMI original song, and I couldn't believe my name appeared!!<br> | |||
(Nanako's name fully appears on the official website's [https://web.archive.org/web/20160702221250/http://www.konami.jp/bemani/jubeat/ripples/music/list_bronze.html MUSIC LIST]!<br> | |||

I'm honored! And moved! (>_<) | |||
I'm saying this because I'm actually from the booming BEMANI generation...<br> | |||

I was addicted to the arcade and also played the home versions.<br> | |||
Of course I was also addicted to pop'n with its exclusive controller, which I definitely played when I went to the arcade.<br> | |||
I remembered [[Mazinger Z]] in pop'n (laughs). | |||
I can't believe the day has come when I'm able to sing in the latest game in the BEMANI series!<br> | |||
I'm very grateful to the lovely staff I've met, and to KONAMI, who made a bold decision to use me as a newcomer.<br> | |||

I don't have a high-pitched voice, and I've recently only sang Western music for work, so these types of songs are rare for me, and I excitedly sang it. | |||
When I previously participated in jubeat for the first time, I excitedly went to the arcade and courageously said to the college boys lining up, "excuse me, please choose this song for a bit", and asked them to let me play it (laughs).<br> | |||
