This is the final evolution known as PARANOIA survivor MAX.
However, there's no nostalgia here.
Etched within this version are many memories over the passage of the last five years, a time when the only thing I knew I had to do was to keep running.
Indeed... as long as memories continue to shine within our hearts, then perhaps the word for "past" may not exist. Neither would the word "end".

Video Production Information

RICE.C

Nice to meet you. My name is RICE.C., and I was involved in DDR production.
DDR and 2DX have been linked with each other ever since the CLUB kit days, haven't they? I'm somewhat deeply moved. I've wanted to participate in creating a video for quite some time, so I'm very, very, very thankful & very grateful that I was invited.

Since this song is a crossover from EXTREME, I tried to remake the two men in a chase as they appeared in that game. Having said that, I redid almost everything aside from the assembly of the DDR cabinet.
It was my first time creating a full movie for a song, so every day working on it had my heart racing from the excitement. Originally, I planned to create the monochrome world turning into color scene for DDR, but it was cut during development due to space limitations. That's why I happily got revenge, although something didn't turn out well. How shameful.

Just before the deadline, I had a terrible dream of a man wearing sunglasses chasing me around. He kept chasing me even though I hid and hid. It was really scary.

Everyone, please also try playing DDR if possible!
I'd like to create movies again.
Bye bye.
