dashon (Do As Infinity - Honjitsu wa Seiten Nari)
Nothing says 'outdoors professional sport' as an opening theme whose title can be translated as "Today is a Sunny Day", isn't it? This was one of five songs being released for one of the now-discontinued Taiko Plus's iOS-exclusive song packs: the Do As Infinity pack, spotlighting tracks from the ongoing J-rock band of the same name from the late 90ies. Do As Infinity was originally founded as a 3-member act with vocalist Tomiko Wan, guitarist Ryo Owatari and band-name-inspirer Dai Nagao, former composer and co-guitarist. The band had two different activity tenures, both contracted under the Avex Trax label: a nine-years beginning one between 1999 and 2005 (the latter portion of which having Dai focused on song-making and not attending later live events altogether) and the ongoing-activity one from 2008 to this day, following a 3-years band hiatus with everyone giving a shot at solo carreers and Dai Nagao not returning for the ongoing Do As Infinity lineup.
The game Honjitsu wa Seiten Nari was its opener for was the Japan-exclusive J.League Winning Eleven Tactics (Jリーグウイニングイレブンタクティクス), spinoff of Konami's everlasting Winning Eleven series that overseas is better known as Pro Evolution Soccer (and eFootball in more current times). Released on December 11th, 2003, this was one of three PlayStation 2 WE titles to offer players the role of a team manager rather than controlling the team players themselves across matches, making this something more comparable to a non-Sega-lead Football Manager game with licenses to soccer players of the time but not club names. Succeeding the spinoff game are 2004's European Club Soccer (another JP exclusive, despite the subtitle) and 2006's Pro Evolution Soccer Management, which was an Europe-only release instead.
While the related DLC distribution (as well as the app itself) is long gone, whoever still got the game installed with their purchases downloaded ca still enjoy another of the 2nd-to-3rd charting generation treats from senior charter Shika@ni~San (しか@に~さん) where Kat-leading charting with many a stanza repetition is the most prized treat. Just as much as slightly shifting the BPM value between note stanzas in general (77 different values in total)!
