夢中で走れ 門限ワープ
落っこちてくる 夕方の空
タタンと膝に張り付いたゲンキ
明日から夏休み

ドリルを広げて
スイカをかじって
お父さんは生ビール

あの頃の私 思い出してた
訳なんかないけど
不安も野望も「漢字」も知らない
まっさら だったよ

大切な想い出が ふわふわ
ねぇ 君も何か話して

  鼻のてっぺん 顔を出してる
  このニキビ両思い??

  前髪気にして
  台詞(せりふ)をおぼえて
  だけどなにも言えなくて

    あの時の気持ち 思い出してた
    なんでかな ふいに
    カケヒキなんかは 当然できない
    まっさら だったの

  制服の白いシャツ きらきら
  初恋はまぶしすぎたね

KEYBOARDMANIA

From when did we change?
I suddenly remember those days when they were "brand new".

Seiya Murai

Since the previous Mighty Guy was well-received, ¿this time, I got carried away and went in another J-POP approach! I aimed for a popular song that would surpass "Mighty Guy"!! (laughs)
How was it? When listeners listen to it, they can understand the motif, but after all, is it nostalgic?
The lyrics have the theme of "summer vacation memories during childhood". It's a bit too seasonal, but I created it during the height of midsummer, and it seemed to just have a slight healing effect on the developers, who tirelessly worked day and night. Everyone was looking into the distance while playing it~ (laughs).
The artist is natural bear. I'm going to use the name of this non-fictitious unit name when co-creating J-pop songs with Kiyomi Kumano, a lyricist with a prismatic singing voice (laughs).
It's also written in katakana in pop'n 4. However, Kumano really sings with various voices~.

Continuing from "Pink Rose", "Massara" officially traveled to pop'n from "KEYBOARD MANIA"♪.
The theme of the first lyric was just summer, and I think it's the truly perfect time.
The artist name isn't listed in the game, but as a brief explanation to those who don't know, this is a song by "natural bear", who're famous for "Koi wa tennen" and "Sweets". That's why, when this song appeared in KEYMANI, I wanted it to be included in pop'n someday~, so I'm happy that it was realized.
The 9 buttons in pop'n might not be as great to play like an actual keyboard, but I hope you'd enjoy this song's light groove.
