    There is something very seriously wrong in this video. At 0:40 you clearly see from the pad that this is a Pump it Up machine, with the four diagonal and one center arrow. But when the game screen is shown, it shows Dance Dance Revolution, with the four cardinal direction arrows. So is he playing PIU, or DDR? Which is it???

    From the west to the east I have flown to be near you
    I have come all this way to be close, to be here with you
    And now, all my heart I will lay down precisely at your feet
    My beloved, oh my sweet
    All the gifts you have given me
    The patience and the peace
    Cherry blossoms and the candy
    I am yours, I am yours
    For as long, for as long as you will have me
    Dearest one, I had a dream
    I mouthed the words
    The sound came out
    I spoke to you in Japanese
    Oh, my love I cannot see, I heard your name
    I know at once there was no place I'd rather be
    All at once there was no place that I would rather be
    From the west to the east I have flown to be near you
    I have come all this way to be close, to be here with you
    And now, all my heart I will lay down precisely at your feet
    My beloved, oh my sweet
    All the gifts you have given me
    The patience and the peace,
    Cherry blossoms and the candy
    I am yours, I am yours
    For as long, for as long as you will have me
    I packed my bag, I'm on my way
    I am prepared for any season
    I am prepared to stay
    Here is my heart, my beating heart
    Oh, how I'm longing for this love affair to start
    How I'm longing for this love affair to finally start
    From the west to the east I have flown to be near you
    I have come all this way to be close, to be here with you
    And now, all my heart I will lay down precisely at your feet
    My beloved, oh my sweet
    All the gifts you have given me
    The patience and the peace
    Cherry blossoms and the candy
