When this song was included in pop'n music6, TRAN was included as the character, and it was very memorable.<br> | |||
Listening back to this now, it functions in my brain like graduation ceremony choral music... | |||
... tera from the pop'n team created the animations, and shio also drew the illustrations, which gave TRAN a charm I couldn't produce, so I was very pleased that all the IIDX and pop'n players could experience TRAN's appearance in another world, and I was very, very happy~... | |||
The past dj TAKA produced a heartbreaking, beautiful, and inspiring song, while ASAKO's singing voice doubled its powerful and kind emotions.<br> | |||
Those who heard this after a long time... or those who heard this for the first time... what kinds of thoughts does this song bring to your mind? | |||

About the animation production, I tried a bit of an interesting process, where all the actions were created by GYO as a 3D movie, and I traced the flat drawings on a frame, which was naturally a first for pop'n. Contrary to my expectations that it would be easy, it was quite hard work, so I intended to create her by fixing her proportions and interruptions, while being directed to remove much of her unnaturalness, but..., I was showered with "boo-hoo" and ridiculed by the team saying "it looks a bit different" until the end, and as a casual animator, this was the best I could do.... | About the animation production, I tried a bit of an interesting process, where all the actions were created by GYO as a 3D movie, and I traced the flat drawings on a frame, which was naturally a first for pop'n.

I heard that dj TAKA was going to provide us a trance song this time, so I nervously approached the IIDX team and asked "if, if that's the case, can we have TRAN?" tera also requested this, so I'm really grateful for their consent! In particular, I'm repeatedly thankful to VJ GYO for his huge cooperation! I'm sorry for ending your valuable holiday after completing it.

Well, TRAN is already a popular character in IIDX, so I didn't want to ruin her image for IIDX fans, but it wouldn't make sense to not do a pop'n remix of her! So I thought with tera about various directions to take this. So from IIDX to pop'n, from 3D to 2D, how do you feel about TRAN crossing over to a different dimension? tera and I are happy that TRAN's charm remains while feeling that she's from another world. I retouched her illustration with a pop'n-styled touch, and I was surprised that TRAN's body proportions were taller than I thought. I thought she was much shorter. | Well, TRAN is already a popular character in IIDX, so I didn't want to ruin her image for IIDX fans, but it wouldn't make sense to not do a pop'n remix of her!

Actually, dj TAKA prepared [[Colors (radio edit)|another song]] before this, but we had to drop it this time due the difference in direction. But it was a pretty hard and deep trance, so perhaps you can hear it in the next title of the series? | Actually, dj TAKA prepared [[Colors (radio edit)|another song]] before this, but we had to drop it this time due to the difference in direction.

The NORMAL chart changed into a difficult HYPER chart as expected.... But it's still exquisite and difficult to maintain the illusion that it can be cleared in a bit halfway through playing. I'm also a TRANCE H member. | ||
