Japanese

始まるよ  はらとってもステキなごど
おいしくなるの  ねえ知ってた?
かわいい紙  包まれたお菓子
くるくるとひらいて  食べてみたいの

ちょっぴり君の心の  ビターなコーティング
たっぷりミルクとね  混ぜてみたら
きゅーんと  スイートな
とっておきなの  ひとくち
スプーンですくって

チョコレートスマイル
とるけるようにあまい歌を  君にきっと届けてみせるから
チョコレートスマイル
とけて少しテレた君の笑顔  ずっと大切にしたいよ

こぼれて落ちだ
涙もあるけど
つながる気持ちで
もっともっと一緒に
笑いあえるよね

English

Let's begin! It's very wonderful
It's delicious - hey, did you know?
Cute paper-wrapped candy 
Round and round, I'd like to eat it

There's a little bitter coating on your heart
But there's plenty of milk, so why not mix it in?
Cute and sweet,
One bite of a prized possession
Scoop it with a spoon!

Chocolate smile
As if it's melting, this sweet song will surely be delivered to you
Chocolate smile
I want to cherish your smile a little bit, forever 

It spilled and fell,
Causing tears, but
With connected feelings
More and more,
Let's meet up and laugh together!

Music Comment

A sweet and gentle smile is given to everyone at Hinatabi's shopping district!

Song Production Information

Chocolate smile―― that's a sweet and gentle smile.
A smile that can be seen because of strong bonds.

When they all passed around chocolates for Valentine's Day and ate them.
Marika Yamagata saw everyone getting along and laughing together with chocolate on their mouths, thought of the phrase "chocolate smile", and based on that, she improvised on the piano and created this song.
This is the first time that all the Hinatabi Bitter Sweets♪ members and the Coconatsu duo sang together, and it's the proud ending song of Season 3, with the theme of strong bonds.

Video Production Information

VJ GYO with centralVillage

A choreography and dance for Hinatabi Bitter Sweets♪ & Coconatsu...

As a present for such a special day, you can enjoy various flavors one at a time, with a movie that looks like an assortment of chocolates lined up like jewels!... We tried to make it like that.

We'd be happy if you like it.

Character Information

None.

Choreography Information
