Overall Meaning

The lyrics are in Japanese and the title "Dan dan chikaku naru" translates to "Gradually getting closer." The song talks about the gradual process of feeling closer to someone and the different emotions that come with it. The first verse talks about how the singer is feeling more and more embarrassed, yet happy as they get closer to the person they like. The second verse talks about the physical changes that come with getting closer to someone - the singer is getting stronger and more confident, yet also becoming thinner and cuter.


The repetition of "dan dan" emphasizes the gradual nature of the process and the buildup of emotions. The use of "mokikunaru" (gradually becoming able to hear) also implies that the singer is becoming more attentive to the person they like as they get closer.


The song's upbeat melody and simple lyrics make it a popular choice for anime openings and as a karaoke song.
