{{nihongo|"Wakkyanai (Z)"|わっきゃない(Z)|Wakkyanai Zetto|It's easy}} is the fourth single from the Japanese pop group Cute, released on July 29, 2006{{cite web|url=http://www.helloproject.com/discography/cute/s_004.html|script-title=ja:ハロー!プロジェクト オフィシャルサイト|date=|accessdate=2011-07-12|publisher=Hello! Project, UP-FRONT WORKS Co., Ltd.|language=Japanese}} on fb indie label.
The character (Z) is pronounced as {{nihongo|zetto|ゼット|}} (the Japanese pronunciation of Z) in the title, but the pronunciation is changed into {{nihongo|ze|ゼ}} in song as in Wakkyanaize.
This title is a play on words being that "Wakkyanaize" itself has no true meaning. It is only an indirect translation of colloquial {{nihongo|"Wake-nai-ze"|訳ないぜ|}} into the English idiom "it's easy", after being deformed deliberately to achieve an English-sounding title.
This song was their initial original tune, and was first sung on November 27, 2005, at a fan club event. In June 2006, it was chosen as a theme song for {{nihongo|"Kodomo Mirai-Haku 2006"|こども未来博2006|Science-Expo for Children 2006}}{{cite web|url= http://www.sapporo-cci.or.jp/kodomomirai/|title= Kodomo Mirai-Haku 2006|accessdate= 2007-06-06|language= Japanese}} and was decided to be released in July.
This was the final release to feature Megumi Murakami.
