It was released as the first single of their major-label debut album, Kimi Tsunagi Five M, on August 6, 2003.[1] In 2020, this song was used for promotional anime video for horse race event, 65th Arima Kinen, with original characters then became anime Fanfare of Adolescence.[2] The song's b-side, "Entrance," was later included on the band's 2006 compilation, Feedback File.

Music video
