    Ryūtarō Itō: I did. You only hear the first verse’s lyrics in the game, but I actually wrote three verses. When I first asked Mr. Masuko to add the lyrics to the music, he looked distinctly unimpressed. (laughs) One interesting fact, I actually used some of the lyrics from my own school’s school song for the game." Game Shokunin Dai 1: Shūdakara Nihon no Gēmu wa Omoshiroi.
