Ronald: I enjoy this at times, and then I hate. I really liked the beginning; it was a fun 00s dance pop song. But then the chorus came, and all I got was children’s TV show. Especially with Miyake Ken’s voice. The man is beautiful, but his voice isn’t. 5/10

Ronald: Same review as before: The eurobeat, the eurobeat, the eurobeat… I’m a bit of a sucker for it. It’s just so fun and nostalgic. It doesn’t take itself too seriously. It is what it is. 6.5/10
