Comment from Maeda Jun in the album:

This is a song I wrote after the game was released and I learned that the screams were well received. I tried to create something heavy with a lot of screams—something aggressive—similar to the kind of music I usually listen to. I was able to watch the concert’s dress rehearsal remotely, and it looked great live. At that time, I thought that I wanted to write more songs like this one and make future concerts even more exciting.
