    They said it.

    It was one of the Tokyo 03 guys catchphrases on the show Unidentified Fantastic Idol that they were somewhat a part of.

    Unidentified Fantastic Idol = UFI, from their song "We are UFI!!!" on their Shiori Kaze CD. As well as the the gimmick they have appeared on certain shows
    Spoiler:


    Still, wasn't this a children only show (Kodomo Matsuri)? Who thought it was a good idea to say curse words in front of the youngsters?!

    This was asked (by someone else) in an earlier thread to no response, so I thought I'd ask here.

    Does anyone know how and where the chants are decided? It seems like every mononofu in Japan knows the chants to every new song basically as soon as it's released.

    For some of the more general chants like the names and the "urya-oi" once you learn the basics they are fairly easy to apply to other songs, which I believe accounts for a big part of how people learn. The more advanced chants I believe spread a bit more slowly, but probably over twitter and the like. For Tohjinsai there was a lot of chants that I picked up on the fly, and some that I learned for the second day. For TGH, for example, there was a combination of these two factors. When we heard the song for the first time there was kind of a feeling that it made sense to raise your penlight when they jumped during the chorus, and go "woo". And as some people started doing it more and more followed, and soon everyone was doing it.

    I also asked some Japanese mononofus about the origin of the chants when I was there this summer, and they told us that there are these super dedicated fans that have basically been there since the Yoyogi days back in '08, and they are really close with the management. They made them sound like living legends, and that you have to work your way into the fandom to even find out their names. But basically these people have been there since the beginning, and they were the ones who made up the original chants.

    Mostly just common sense then, plus a secret society of top tier mononofu. ;)
    Good thing too. The chants add so much to the lives.
    Thanks for the answer.
