Kana Hanazawa Is a Melancholy Shellder in "Pokémon Puppet Theater"

In a recent "Pokémon Puppet Theater" video posted to the official Pokémon Youtube channel, voice actress Kana Hanazawa steps into the role of a lonely Shellder to sing a mournful ballad about love and longing...specifically longing to bite the tail of a Slowpoke and evolve into a Slowbro.

 

 

The song is entitled "Amai Yuuwaku" ("Sweet Seducer"), and the lyrics translate as follows:

 

Lured by a sweet seducer,

That child changed into a Slowbro

 

Lured by a sweet seducer,

That one, also, changed into a Slowking

 

Even though they promised they would never change

Everyone bit Slowpoke's tail

 

"It's sweet and tasty", everyone says

But somehow a little scary, Slowpoke's tail

 

Maybe I won't be able to exist on my own anymore,

Maybe I won't be able to be separated from him anymore

 

But I want to bite it, Slowpoke's tail

Slowpoke's tail

 

 

The video features a screenplay and direction by Ryousuke Aoike of FEVER creations and music composition by Tecy Vegas of Tecytone..
