Questions

What BPM is 明日晴れるかな?

38 out of 100 -- a fair first song -- with the independence between the hands and the feet the part that decides it. The beat itself is 21 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

77 bars, about 4:12 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 22 exercises over 6 sittings, about 24 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom and kick. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.

How many fills are in 明日晴れるかな?

7 fills to learn, played 12 times: bars 21, 25, 29, 31, 39, 48 and 6 more.
