Riyu Kosaka performed the vocals and lyrics to CANDY♥, a version with a new rock tone and stronger arrangement, which is a number I quite like from the songs I recently created.

I really wanted Riyu Kosaka to provide a comment, but she was super busy at her high school festival, so NAOKI wrote this on her behalf, although CANDY♥ doesn't seem to suit him.

I created CANDY♥ from my interpretation of a cute & pop, but exciting song. Actually, it's recently one of my favorite songs. When I completed this song, something in me changed.<br>

It's sometimes unreasonable to put too much effort in anything, so I want to live naturally. I wonder if CANDY♥ is a radical song which included such feelings. It'd be nice if many people as possible played this song with happy feelings~.

I selected Kaera as number two from the many ZUKIN races. But, I couldn't forget the other races, so I had them occasionally appear. It was very fun drawing the images of various characters with the treasured pictures I received as examples. Salute to the DDR team from the other side. Thank you very much!

When I first heard CANDY☆, I felt that it expressed a bright and driving sensation. I wanted to show a romantic atmosphere through the appearance of the characters, JOHNNY and his lover LORRAINE (her first appearance), but the person who created them was embarrassed (laughs).

The colors also seem pop and cute, so I'm satisfied with the laidback result in a good way.
