- "A janitor who cleans a certain building in West Shinjuku every day.
They say he has another side to him, a sniper with the nickname 'cleaner'. Is it a secret?" - ―Character Introduction[1]
Mr. KK is one of the characters from pop'n music 5.
Profile
Mr. KK is a sanitization maintenance worker. Outside of his public job, Mr. KK works as a secretive sniper, given the alias "cleaner".
Character Information
- "The family business is secret. Super secret. From cleaning buildings to table waiting and looking for a cat,
I can do anything you depend on me for, honey. (but only cute girls can ask)" - ―pop'n 10 Character Introduction
I thought that the time I heard the demo is someone with sideburns, though I've replaced it with a mental image about a slender and dazzling young man, after KUDO provided his vocals to the song. With the cat behind him that looks like an old movie anyone watched, he looks like a private detective from the thin, second-and-a-half piece.
I begged S-san to be in these animations, but it was fun when I made some retouches, having him to move in a cool way in more than one image, albeit that I was only about to make a setting.
I lend an explanation about this spot to him, because I've asked too many questions for some reason. I had to make Belle as a guest character, because she is a girl who owns a cat in COQUETTE, as she came forward and asked him a favor. I have a bit of a relationship with Mr. Sakurai from pop'n 9.
- "This time he works for a living to get safe water in the water department?
...huh, is that a water gun? How do you use that for this job??" - ―pop'n 15 Character Introduction
The "fwa~n" sound effect is perfect; what a funny song it is. I frequently smile hearing the sentence "Please...cherish the water!"
No surprises here that I've been poor at playing this song, with the PERCUSSIVE staying alive. It's either a battle with low speed, or a battle with muscle memory of remembering the chart from the speed zone... So, this is what I long for. It eventually reaches the point that I was excited to be able to play my favorite song as much as I can, right!?
Lately, the words of "water supply work" didn't make sense to me, but it's better to work as a water supplier than leave stuff dirty; that's why it was told that the point is that Mr. KK was seen ultimately living a safe life. (or was he?)
Behind him is a tank, but I catch a whiff of "a 'helluva cleaner' from convenient commodities, who is able to clean with water cordlessly; for now there's one more for the set! One is the overall water gun, while another is added for this price!! (oooh!) I'll do just that right away!!" It feels like a huge deal, but it seems like it's not that handy.
The Ojama animation, but not his Dance, has Mr. KK, who has been busy, doing a small prank. (Hmm, thinking of it now, his 2P was okay if he's facing towards the opposite direction. It's an example that I'm often pondering about later on.)
I also want to frolic with this huge water gun somewhere like a park, if there's a clear day.
But I still can't.

- "Living an urban life is fast-paced everyday. Once in a while, I want to relax and speed walk someday.
...But, despite of what I say, it seems like I don't, right?" - ―pop'n 20 Character Introduction
Today, I got to pair the song with this character, moving forward past his animations. It's a song for a marvelous and refined young man! Thank you so much for that.
Having a hard time with everyday like from a valley in an urban area feels like he's laughing out loud with a "que sera sera". I was perfectly satisfied by this image.
Mr. KK became the cleaner, because of the impact from his first song "Nishi Shinjuku Seisou Kyoku", but I added a setup for this character, lightly thinking "Are there any other meanings for the word cleaner?" as a bonus.
I am grateful to everyone that I'm about to run out of blessings for the designers who have their responsibility for this mature song by widening the establishment for this character who only have letters in his name later on.
I tried adding actions that are professional for the first time for the current work, but because it's Pop'n Music, the rifle's target--has a different meaning! Please try to take a look at what kind of story it is in game.
