== Music Comment ==
== Music Comment ==
Untranslated.
This is a high quality collaboration of traditional Japanese folk songs and dance music, played on an edgy Tsugaru shamisen.

=== DanceDanceRevolution ===
==== NAOKI ====
This is a new song by RevenG and DE-SIRE, inheriting the fusion of world folk music and dance music that has gained strong support on the DDR series.
 
This time, with the theme of "Aomori", I attempted a musical collaboration with Tsugaru jongara bushi, featuring "Tsugaru shamisen". If there is an opportunity for the next time, should I go for a fusion with Asian music outside of Japan?... That's what I think.
 
=== pop'n music ===
==== NAOKI MAEDA ====
TSUGARU features an authentic Tsugaru shamisen combined with dance music throughout the song.<br>
The name Re-venge or Reven-G exists to express the identity, "I want to convey traditional Japanese music to everyone through music games".<br>
I believe that the collaboration between pop music, which uses modern technology, and traditional Japanese music, are elements which express feelings of strong originality among people around the world, and I also currently plan to release traditional music from various regions of Japan, so please wait for that time to come!

"TSUGARU" by RevenG vs. DE-SIRE is a collaboration between RevenG ([[Matsuri JAPAN|MATSURI JAPAN]]/[[exotic ethnic]]) and DE-SIRE ([[TRIP MACHINE]]/[[Healing Vision]]). This duo combines their strengths to deliver a tribal song that is organic and electronic at the same time. The dance steps are tricky, so watch your timing!

== Character Information ==
Untranslated.
<center>All the brothers quickly visited a concert to hear the melody of a Tsugaru shamisen.</center>
 
=== [[Tomoko Shiono|shio]] ===
This character is from the [[CS pnm 12|home version]] of [[AC pnm 12|12 Iroha]]. They were created by [[Aoi Tagami|aonisai]], much like Kurota-chan.<br>
The design of parts of their faces are too nice, and it's one of my favorite characters.
 
While having such identity, how did they come to the arcade first as a character for a different song?... I was worried about that.<br>
But we decided that these brothers perfectly fit TSUGARU! I was able to cross them over.<br>
When I listened with the song, I'm still glad to have the jongara updated version.
 
I also received materials from the DDR team, so the background looks cool.<br>
The movie's spring-styled chonmage animations were revolutionary, so I was able to use the illustrations and materials.<br>
When your performance reaches the climax, I'm sure your hair will also jump.

== Staff Comments ==
=== DanceDanceRevolution ===
==== Octoman ====
The first image is "RevenG vs DE-SIRE", so I immediately created it with the feeling of a "showdown". But, it doesn't seem to fit the atmosphere of the movie. I like the intense image....
 
By the way, the chonmage movie was initially planned to have fireworks appear above the "chonmages".
 
The ninja's "stop" immediately resonated with me.
 
==== RICE.C ====
The song itself is very nice, so it was easy to direct the images. I think the movement of the ninja stop-motions, and the sudden appearance of a nobleman (?) have a nice taste.
 
=== pop'n music ===
==== [[Ryuta Tamura|TAMA]] ====
You never get tired of listening to the nice sounds of the lighthearted shamisen, right?<br>
Benbenbenbenben~
 
==== [[eimy]] ====
Oh, jongara... what was that?!<br>
It's an interesting mix. Personally, I want to listen to it even longer~.
 
==== [[Yuki Shibata|Mameshiba]] ====
Aomori means Tsugaru shamisen.<br>
When I hear the sounds of a shamisen, I remember a folk song TV show which aired on Sunday mornings at 6 o'clock.<br>
Well. This is a danceable folk song, which brilliantly fuses shamisen and dance! It's different.
 
==== Ga~su~ ====
The shamisen is hot, right!<br>
My grandfather also played it often, but I've never heard such a cool one as this.
 
==== [[Daichi Watanabe|PON]] ====
This is a song crossed over from DDR.<br>
The sharp tone of the shamisen raises the tension.<br>
Oh, come to think of it, I asked cody for the data of this song.<br>
It was during the final stages of production, so the schedule was quite unreasonable.
