"Mobo★Moga" is an abbreviation of Modern Boy and Modern Girl, but this song title is directly taken from a delicious restaurant in Shibuya called Mobo Moga that I used to visit.

This cute French pop song starts with piano playing and light percussion. The whispery female vocals perfectly match the polished melody. This fashionable song sounds like it was from a one scene cut of a French movie. By the way, the title "Mobo・Moga" stands for "Modern Boy・Modern Girl". If anything, won't you decide to dance while wearing French-styled fashion?

Untranslated.
To commemorate its inclusion in four game series, it's about time to tell the truth.
 
There's a "~ballroom dance" on the third floor of an old building barely outside the town center, isn't there?<br>
When I was walking around town, for some reason I stared at middle-aged people dancing in grandiose outfits through the glass window, and they seemed to be moving at a high-speed.<br>
It's just like fast-forwarding a video.<br>
"This is it! This is the world!"<br>
While thinking this, I immediately started writing this song the next day.<br>
MOBO★MOGA is a ballroom dance song. The concept is a sped-up ballroom dance.<br>
I created this song while thinking about what middle-aged people are doing in that unique and narrow world. It's passionate. And strong.<br>
The orchestra was more heavy at first. It seemed to interact with the rhythms. It's so moody, isn't it?<br>
Unfortunately, when I added the vocals, it became fashionable... damn it! (laughs)<br>
But, I prefer fashionable girls like Toffee&Tart than middle-aged women, so that's great.

"MOBO MOGA" by Orange Lounge is an enjoyable blend of bossa-styled sounds and vocals with drum'n'bass land lounge. "MOBO MOGA" is very fun to dance to and has timeless appeal with its very catchy melodies.

It was a very cute song, so I made a video using twin girls with a theme of a "POP LIFE-like playing house" (because two things that are symmetrical form a cute image).<br>
... However, during the latter half of production, I realized that the title meant "Modern Boy & Girl".... how disappointing.

It was a very cute song, so I made it using twin girls in the "POP LIFE" theme, since it's a cool theme (Because the two things that are symmetrical is a cute image).<br>
This song is adorable, so I drew a picture of a large eye. (It's a bit scary though..) The song's sequences are relatively difficult! That gap is probably great.
...However, during the latter-half of production, the title was changed to "Modern Boy & Girl" and I noticed the meaning of the title was changed, which I found to be... regrettable.
 
It's fairy tale-like~! I wanted to make the movie like that. A toy airplane is spinning in the background of the Ferris wheel movie. Did you notice it? It's a movie with a spinning person's silhouette dancing. I've never done ballroom dancing, but I tried to create a dance with that image.
