朝 サンドイッチ食べながら
地図を広げた ずる休みの今日
みちくさは淋しいココロ癒す為には必要な事

すべりだい転がし 少し意地悪に流転

いつも繰り返す ありふれた日常
疲れた体に溢れ出す不安や
溜息蹴っ飛ばして 大きく深呼吸

もしも躓いて 傷を負っても
また しりとりみたいに
自分のイロハ繋ぎ新しく紡ぎ 裸足で駆け出そう。

Long Version

Japanese


朝 サンドイッチ食べながら
地図を広げた ずる休みの今日
みちくさは淋しいココロ癒す為には必要な事

すべりだい転がし 少し意地悪に流転

いつも繰り返す ありふれた日常
疲れた体に溢れ出す不安や
溜息蹴っ飛ばして 大きく深呼吸

雨上がり 浜辺のリズム
向い風の中 開けた絶景
今見えるまばゆい光 急ぎ足止めて刻み込んだ

幸せ願えば 背中を伸ばして 好転

辿り着けないと 求めてばかりて
大切な事を忘れかけていたよ
遠回りしたけど それが近道だと

今日は風まかせ 雲は流れゆき晴天

いつも繰り返す ありふれた日常
疲れた体に溢れ出す不安や
溜息蹴っ飛ばして 大きく深呼吸

もしも躓いて 傷を負っても
また しりとりみたいに
自分のイロハ繋ぎ新しく紡ぎ 裸足で駆け出そう。

This is a very cute song by Fantastic factory, which was well received by pop-rock lovers at KEYBOARDMANIA. KM has offered this song to us to enable sessions with GF&DM. But at first, this song was not intended to be used in a session, so we had to rework some of the sounds later on, but the powerful groove of this song is still there!

Seiya Murai

"Shiritori", a port from "KEYBOARD MANIA", is a song performed by "Fantastic factory", and is a masterpiece that was said to be suitable for pop'n music since it was first released on KEYBOARDMANIA.
I (Murai) don't have any special relationship with "Fantastic factory" (laughs), but I have been listening to the song since I was in charge of the first KEYBOARDMANIA, and I've spent a lot of time working closely with the song through sessions with Gitadora and its porting to pop'n. I guess that's why I've become so attached to it, and that's why I'm writing this comment on behalf of the artist (laughs).
When I was creating the data for the game, it was as if the song was my own? I think I was able to understand the details of the arrangement so well that I was able to create charts that were moderately difficult and enjoyable while getting into the groove of the song.

Video Production Information

None.

Character Information

A super high-tension highschool girl idol. She hates the gloomy weather! Everything has to be straight!

I've loved this song since KEYBOARD MANIA, so I'm glad it's now here in pop'n. With 9 buttons, I can finally manage to play it...!
When I heard the song, I thought that it was perfect for LISA! Straight!!. And she was in charge of this song. It's a pity that I couldn't prepare a new animation because I ran out of time. LISA has a perfect balance of body parts, so it was very difficult to illustrate her. Hmmm. As expected of an active highschool girl idol (not that it matters).
