Song Production Information

Seiya Murai

I have previously worked on a game which used American cartoon characters and created songs which felt exactly like this~ back then, so I've mastered these melodies (laughs).
CARTOON is the English word for anime. There has been at least one anime-styled song included in every pop'n game so far, but this time, I slightly changed this direction and tried to include an American-styled song. The cartoon called "Toon Mania" doesn't actually exist, of course.

Character Information

Birthplace: White Land
Hobbies: Playing
Likes: His parents. Having fun, candies
Dislikes: Being homesick

He's the prince of White Land. He's looking for a big adventure around the world to do fun things with his lion, Cymbal. But, he soon feels lonely and returns to his castle.

This character has existed since I thought about including it in 3, and he finally appeared here. Actually, the rejected character Kevin was very well-received among fans, so I'd like him to appear soon.
Anyways, I'm still emotional that my ambition for a boy character to appear has actually come true!
