"Hello, this is Masa.
This is a song about a restaurant in a lawless place."
KOWLOON HANTEN is an original VOCALOID song produced by Masa, featuring Hatsune Miku and GUMI, and was released on the album ANTI POP on May 1st, 2020, with a PV uploaded to YouTube on January 27th, 2021.

KOWLOON HANTEN's Description[]
To secure Rakurai, Maria and Chlordane infiltrated the Kowloon district. They decided to open a restaurant using Maha's funds to gather information, but due to their poor culinary skills, they ended up in significant debt. With their funds depleted, they resorted to earning money through sex appeal and violence, leading to great success.[1]

| まるで掃き溜めさ酔っ払いの街 | marude hakidame sa yopparai no machi | This town of drunkards is quite like a rubbish heap. |
| 変な肉団子酒で流し込む | hen na niku dango sake de nagashikomu | What's in these meatballs? I wash 'em down with rice wine. |
