A video of ℃-ute's Okai Chisato was uploaded in the public Youtube channel "℃-ute Official Channel", called "Dance de Bakoon! dance cover - Okai Chisato (the person herself)", and it achieved 100,000 views in 2 days, a record that has caused lots of talking.

Many videos with songs of liked idols are uploaded in NicoNico and Youtube, this movement of popular contributions is called "dance covers" (odotte mita). Okai had as challenge a song of her own group. This video was broadcasted as part of "Okaichannel / Okai-chan, neru" in Ustream in November 9, and was inmediatedly uploaded to Youtube.

The video is doing well as the view counts keep on increasing. As of today, November 11, at 18:00, it's breaked through 90,800 views. The comments gathered many voices from both Japan and foreign countries. Furthermore, yesterday, November 10, Okai's dance cover of a song from the group's indies era, "Ooki na ai de motenashite" was uploaded, which is getting reactions as well.

Regarding this, Okai comented "As people from all over the world can watch Youtube, I read the comments and it made me really happy to see comments from various countries. I didn't think I'd be watched by such a big amount of people, so it's really good that I did this challenge". "I want to do more challenges of different songs" has left the fans looking forward to the next video.

℃-ute's Okai Chisato "dance cover" video breaks through 100,000 views after days of having being uploaded.

Average users show their copies (learnt by imitation) of dances of idol songs, which are called "dance covers" (odotte mita). These videos have become now a "standard genre" in videos. Member Okai Chisato of the group ℃-ute (which is releasing their single "Aitai Lonely Christmas" on December 1) had a challenge. She danced ℃-ute's song "Dance de Bakoon!" by herself, and the video of it was uploaded in Youtube as "Dance de Bakoon! dance cover [Okai Chisato (the person herself)]", and after two days it has breaked through 100,000 views.

This video was broadcasted on November 9 in UStream, in the show "Okaichannel / Okai-chan, neru". After the show ended, it was quickly uploaded in Youtube's "℃-ute's Official Channel", and after November 10th, the view counts have temporaly acquired the #1 spot in the music genre in Youtube. The number of viewers continues on increasing, and on the same day the view count managed the video to achieve #2 in the complete ranking. After two days, the total view counts have reached 100,000.

Also, on the 10th, a video of Okai's dance cover video of ℃-ute's songs from their indies era, "Ooki na ai de motenashite" was broadcasted in Ustream's "Okaichannel" and was uploaded on Youtube as well. On the 11th, after 21 hours pass by, ℃-ute's Okai Chisato's new dance cover is scheduled to be broadcasted in UStream's "Okaichannel".

Since debut days, Okai-chan has had a boyish character/image, but yesterday she was completely adult-like, and her sexiness has increased. Dancing in her room, it looks like the place is her own home.

"As people from all over the world can watch Youtube, I read the comments and it made me really happy to see comments from various countries. I didn't think I'd be watched by such a big amount of people, so it's really good that I did this challenge. I want to do more challenges of different songs" - Okai Chisato (℃-ute)

Fan account from oroboras @ H!O (November 13)

I went to the C-ute Radio show recording at Tokyo German village today (the least German place I have ever seen!), where C-ute performed Aitai Lonely Chriatmas THREE TIMES!!! (twice during rehearsal) - and Dance de Bakoon twice (one rehearsal), along with 2 Anime songs - with Tsuji Nozomi.

The dance to the new song includes several sets of putting your right arm above your head, and then slowly bringing it down to horizontal (infront of you - palm flat - facing upwards), then close your hand, and slowly draw it towards yourself, along with horizontal, and diagonal arm-pumps with the right hand, out to the right side.

The girls start off in a diagonal row, close together looking away, then as the beat starts, the front girl (please don't ask me what order they were in, I just remember that Chisato was at the back - so i couldn't see her) turns her head to the front, then the girl behind her, on the next beat, etc.
