| This is was a pure musical song. The tune was completely done with Programming, "Gt", and Bass, other than the parts that I sang.<br> | | This is a vocal song. I sang it, in addition to performing the Programming, Gt, and Bass.<br> |
| I tried to use a method that balanced the combination of raw "Gt", Bass, Rhythm, and "Synth" that intensifies as the constant beat increases.<br> | | I love the balance between the live Gt, Bass, and programmed Rhythm, and Synth.<br> |
| Even though I was able to write the lyrics, I arranged the tune first while I created the image. The abstract space left in between can make the final image even better if you make it up along the way. Since it was part of the image, something with such emptiness makes it a little harder, but when the effectiveness of it increases, you can find out the whole picture of creating it if you do it piece-by-piece, and when you eventually finish something after writing, hearing, and seeing what the final outcome of the entire thing becomes, it's something that can turn out great.
| | I also wrote the lyrics, but the song was arranged first, so I wrote them with that in mind. It was a relatively abstract, space-like image, so the lyrics are also abstract and vague, but I actually thought of an image when writing it, so I'd be happy if you listened to it and thought of some kind of image. |

| The image I get when I hear this song was in the middle of summer. Beautiful weather. And gathering with your buddies in the early morning. And driving there by car there and back on the same day! The BPM of this song was very high and upbeat! With such a cheerful and energetic feeling, what do you think?<br>
| | "Midsummer. Nice weather. An early morning gathering. Then driving straight to the sea by car (on a day trip)!" That's the image for this song, which is the greatest BGM all day! That's what it feels like~, right?<br> |
| In one perspective, you see the visualization and the song. In the other, the gentle breeze blows, and you are at a high level where you get the most beautiful view. When you lie down, you close your eyes to see something enchanting. It's like going on a journey to the other world where you don't have a care in the world! Then, you doze off into a lazy feeling.<br>
| | On the other hand, the image of the lyrics and the song is "a pleasant breeze blowing and a plateau with a nice view. Lying down. Closing your eyes because it's dazzling. Furthermore, let's depart to a pleasant world! And oversleeping".<br> |
| You have to cover both of this fields, so drawing something that connects to the song, and the "otherworldly paradise" that you can only see in a dream is the straightforward way to go, but I really regret that because of the time restrictions, I only took the method that connected to the song, not the image I imagined.<br>
| | I dreamed of covering and drawing both "world images", but unfortunately, due to time constraints, I was only able to include the song's image.<br> |
| I was expected to do a video based on "closing your eyes, and doing what you think." by everyone and Yu Takami, and the characters that appear in the video are similar in that it was expected by everyone with complete agreement, not the direction which you personally go.<br>
| | Well, "if you close your eyes, what do you first think of?"... Everyone, Yu Takami, myself, and the characters that appear in the movie, have a similar direction, but it shouldn't be exactly the same.<br> |
| But because it's that way, when you image various types of people, you can...truly see the cute and upbeat charm of this tune even when it's going at full speed.
| | So, if you can imagine various things... I think you can appreciate this song's lovely charm in many ways. |

| Oh, and it was GOLI's idea to make the girls drive in a new, open car.<br>
| | By the way, the convertible was [[Goli Matsumoto|GOLI]]'s idea.<br> |
| Because of the movie's environment, a rental car with the upper area exposed was an alteration to the girls' typical sports car.<br>
| | It's established in the movie as a rental car, so it's like taking turns to drive it.<br> |
| For them, the time of a student is precious, and going for a drive in a car while you're accompanied by your best friends while you go to the sea and back is a lot of fun! Going the distance made it all the more experience better, but doing this meant being placed in more danger because of a far more exposed car (like a suicide seat).
| | When I was a student, I used to go on day trips to the sea with several of my friends in their cars each summer! But I only had one opportunity to ride in a convertible (as a passenger).<br> |
| | It's a different feeling than sitting in a motorcycle and car (with a roof attached), so I was infatuated with its vast spaciousness, and enjoyed traveling in it! I have many memories of this. Due to my personality, I like the experience of traveling in a vehicle more than playing around at the destination...<br> |
| | I've never owned a car, but I want my first car to be a convertible!<br> |
| | Is it OK to say this~? I made these animations while dreaming about it. |

|
| I kinda became dazed from the weird impression that the car was like a motorcycle (because of no attached roof), and it's also different from a bicycle, but the outrageous design ideas were fun! It was definitely a great memory for me...at the top of your thoughts means to get to your destination, that only the driver and the passengers can feel because the interior of the car is also more exposed, letting you feel the outside air, which I could portray the girls feeling with the best expressions on their face. | | Although I aimed for a different style than the Eurobeat car battle movies, I fully realized the difficulty of drawing a movie showing ordinary, everyday life, and there wasn't enough consideration for "a memorable little episode". |
| | |
| The car's model wasn't owned by me, but this was the first time I ever made one like this! Is this being said with the correct kanji? But either way, it was a dream come true getting to draw and model something like this.
| |
| | |
| Although I kinda aimed for a stylization from the "Kaaba toor" movie which was placed in a former European beat and display, but the considering of the little kinds of things like that can remain in people's memories, or long enough at least, is generally known, so the difficulty of portraying this and that the movie was to be made in a casual everyday feel in my own style was a bit painful!
