It’s now considered one of AKB48’s signature hits, but Sashihara said on a variety show, “When I first heard it, I thought it would never sell.” It’s a cute, mid-tempo track, and above all, the fun choreography that everyone can enjoy spread like wildfire, leading to its massive breakthrough.

The key is to dance cutely.
Effeminate; overly sentimental; being clingy/whiny (context-dependent)Gōruden Bonbā
Golden Bomber’s massive hit that always makes you think, “Maybe they’ll do something funny…” Believe it or not, Golden Bomber performed this song at the Red and White Song Battle four years in a row starting in 2012.

Dancing HeroHaginome Yōko
It became even more famous when the dance club at Osaka’s Tomigaoka High School performed a high-level routine to this song, didn’t it?
