The title apparently has no meaning, and the members simply chose the name because of how it sounds. The song was originally a candidate as a ( Read more... )

"Shiosai-chan" was at first only intended to be a temporary title, but it ended up becoming the official title instead. The lyrics of this song uses a strong Hakata dialect from Fukuoka prefecture, which is vocalist Kusano Masamune's hometown ( Read more... )
