Since it's so close to the famous consumers' holiday, I had to include Sayuri Kokusho's "Valentine Kiss" (1986) this week in the Retro Corner. As cute as last year's Watarirouka Hashiritai 7's version was, I still prefer the original. Retro bubblegum is one of my weaknesses. If you're afraid of eating too many sweets this Valentine's Day, try listening to this song instead! It's enough sugar for ten Valentine's Days, haha.
If you have a soft spot for Rie Kugimiya, though, her rendition as The Idolm@ster's Iori Minase is super cute, too, minus the authentic retro charm.
