Kagamine Rin & Len - Ikasama⇔Casino


It's been quite a long time since my last song review. Well, lately I often post about Nendoroid and figma stuffs so this time I'll review a song again.

This time, it comes from one of my favorite composer, Hitoshuzuku-P. Or maybe I should call "teamOS" since this song is composed by Hitoshizuku-P, mixed by Yama△, the illustration is by Suzunosuke, and the video is made by TSO. The four of them is now in teamOS although TSO just joined the team in this song. And as additional information, this latest song from teamOS was uploaded in Nico Nico Douga on 1st April 2012. Yes, on April Fool's Day xD
And another information, this song is also included in Vocalogemini, an album from Exit Tunes, dedicated for the Kagamine Twins ^^

 Anyway, enough with the introduction, now I'll move to the song story. From what I gathered from the video and the caption in NND, Rin and Len are twins that seem to be separated when they were kids. When they have grown up, both of them become undefeated gambler who can empty their opponent's wallet in every game. One night, they meet again in a casino. By the advice from Miku as the floorgirl (well, I don't know what the proper name is. I only know some terms like Casino Host and floormen >.<), they both join the same game and try to beat one another in various gambles. And as usual, in the end they realize that they're siblings and in the end of the PV, it is shown that Rin comes towards Len (which I assume as "Happy Ending" xD).

Overall, I like the upbeat and catchy song. teamOS did an awesome job as usual. Another awesome thing is the PV! TSO and Suzunosuke really did an awesome job here. Personally I think this is the best video from teamOS after Synchronicity ^^

Yokubou kensou kakehiki uzumaku andaashiti

English

Desire, hustle & bustle, strategy whirl in the undercity
Stalwarts seeking jobs, success, dreams, hopes
In the casino where bartenders, dealers, gamblers gather
"Let's wager everything important to you."

What's tonight's game?
A moderate stimulus, please.
A simple game of turning the wheel & dropping balls
d'Alembert's too boring
It's aimed at 36 twice
So, will we go to the...
Couple's stage?

With a divine work unstoppable by even eyes, it's Show Time!!
In a predestined situation, the game board begins to spin
An utter defeat? Will you lose "money" or "pride"?
Once you've closed your eyes, I'll steal your heart

Envy, illusion, sighs whirl in the undercity
Stalwarts worn out by perfidy, underdogs, swindlers
In the casino full of perfidy, underdogs, swindlers
"Let's wager everything important to you."

What's tonight's game?
A moderate stimulus, please
A simple game of collecting only 5 ace cards
Is attacking with a bluff too boring?
I'm just aiming for the Deal=Jackpot
So, will we go to the...
Couple's stage?

With a divine work unstoppable by even eyes, it's Show Time!!
In a predestined situation, the game board begins to spin
An utter defeat? Will you lose "dreams" or "pride"?
Once you've closed your eyes, I'll torment you so much it hurts

What's the final game?
An outcome full of trickery
A simple game of repeating dice⇔rolls
An Odds Bet of 3 is too boring
I'll make it black & white soon enough
Will we go to the...
Couple's stage?

With a divine work unstoppable by even eyes, it's Show Time!!
In a predestined situation, the game board begins to spin
An utter defeat? Will you lose "God" or "pride"?
Not even a break to close your eyes? I'll destroy your heart

With a divine work unstoppable by even eyes, it's Show Time!!
In a predestined situation, the game board begins to spin
The tables turned? Did you lose "love" or "pride"?
Once you've closed your eyes, I'll steal your heart
