Currently popular at Fujiko・F・Fujio Museum in Kawasaki City
New short anime based on the original work by Fujiko・F・Fujio Sensei
Commemorating the 40th anniversary of the manga "Chinpui", the original soundtrack for the popular short animation "Chinpui Eri-sama's Good Luck" currently being shown at the Fujiko・F・Fujio Museum in Kawasaki City will be available worldwide for streaming & download starting February 7th (Saturday)!
The soundtrack features the work of "Dos Monos" MC and trackmaker Shōji Itō, as well as the full version of the ending theme song "I Don't Want to Be a Cinderella" sung by the voice actors of the feature: Kuno Misaki as Chinpui, Megumi Han as Kasuga Eri, and Yoko Hikasa as Mama. Also included is a special REMIX version made by Shōji Itō for this release!
The Tr.1-9 soundtrack by Shōji Itō impresses with playful sounds that further expand the worldview of "Chinpui". Tr.10 "I Don't Want to Be a Cinderella" is known as a famous song that was used as the ending theme for the TV anime "Chinpui" broadcast from 1989-91, and this time, a cover version has been created after about 36 years. Also pay attention to Tr.11's REMIX, where Shōji Itō has built a creative sound world based on the newly created cover version's audio materials. Enjoy on each music distribution service!

〈Track Listing〉
【Music】Comment by Shōji Itō (Dos Monos)
The production of the "Chinpui" soundtrack progressed by frequently visiting director Yoda's house, playing like innocent adults. I think we created exciting music to the point where concerns like "Will children be scared?" completely disappeared as we got carried away playing analog synths at full volume. Before making the remix of the super famous song "I Don't Want to Be a Cinderella," the original composer Iku Ikei told me, "Play to your heart's content!" and I really went all out playing. Inheriting the inexhaustible creativity, energy, and playfulness of "Chinpui"—which was Mr. Fujiko・F・Fujio Sensei's final serialized work, and whose anime was broadcast during the transition period of 20 years lost to the height of the bubble economy—let's turn a new page together for us living today and for the children of the future, one that goes beyond nostalgia.
【Chinpui Role】Comment by Kuno Misaki
I'm truly happy that the day has come when we can listen to this work's soundtrack. By listening to the music that colors this work, I believe you can enjoy it even more. I also got to sing "I Don't Want to Be a Cinderella" as Chinpui, so please be sure to listen to the full version. I will continue to cherish this work from now on. I would be happy if it continues to live in everyone's hearts. I dream of the day when I can voice Chinpui again!
【Kasuga Eri Role】Megumi Han
I was thinking, "I hope someday we can get to listen to the songs from the work," and what an unexpected good luck!! Is this also Chinpui's magic? Thank you!! "I Don't Want to Be a Cinderella." I'm happy that you can listen to the full size version too. I feel it's a song I want to deliver to this era. Please do enjoy the colorful music, like a toy box or a closet!! Surely good things will happen♪
