SUPER STAR MITSURU

[m-robo]

I thought TAG was one of the guys playing guitar at Gitado. I don't know what he looks like.

I have a feeling SSM is TAG + Naoki.

[shungokusatsu]

I know that one of the guitarists playing is Jin Senbonmatsu (千本松 仁). It would be helpful to know who played what, but I don't have the GITADO LIVE DVD to check if there's any information about it.

EDIT:
Did a few searches and stumbled on to this site, and I found info about it.

El Dorado is track 7.
That is really TAG in that picture.

[snapps]

mitsuru could be a michael a la mode where its a standin for someone else

EDIT: i watched it again. this guy isnt naoki. naoki is like 5'5 and this guy is taller

[Ryujin]

After listening to Roppongi Evolved and remembering the Gitado Live performance, TAG does sound like a more likely candidate than Naoki at this point.

[_____Cait]

Yeah, I totally think TAG is Naoki.

SSM could be Jun+Yoshitaka for all I know.

[Pie-kun]

TAG's real name is Yasuhiro Taguchi, if that helps.

He also works as a step writer for DDR, although my guess is that he's focused on music now, as he wasn't credited for any charts in HP3/X2. So, his full name appeared on the credits of several DDR titles (HP2, SN2, and SN I believe).

His first name somewhat rhymes with Yukihiro.

[Pie-kun]

It's also worth pointing out that DDR X's "HOW TO PLAY" song sounds very much like a SUPER STAR MITSURU song.

YouTube - HOW TO PLAY -???STEP???????????- (DDR X AC BEGINNER MODE)

It also has a kind of unofficial "キミのSTEPはレボリューションだ” subtitle.

TAG composed "SABER WING" for DDR X.

...Further more, "New Generation" appears in DDR X2's master list, implying that they are getting ready to cross that song over into DDR. I'm beginning to really think that it really could be TAG lol.

[Akira]

MC X sounds like Mitsuru... I can imagine the same voice saying "She is my wife"

[snapps]

yeah wow

tag is definitely mitsuru

[_____Cait]

I was just coming into this topic to say that I thought Naoki= TAG= Mitsuru

[kjw]

Naoki is Naoki, TAG is Mitsuru and isn't Yoshitaka as we expected.

[_____Cait]

Oops, I forgot the discoveries made earlier, haha...

Hmm..... Maybe it's not anybody we know, like Yoshitaka or whatever? Maybe it's a newcomer.

Not that he's new anymore,e but you know what I mean.
