The sound work makes you think “this is exactly what it needs,” and it’s jaw-dropping.
The build-up leading into the chorus really gets the energy up, too! It’s also fun to look for connections with Kanaria’s other songs, such as “KING,” where the contrast in the title is particularly effective.

It’s especially recommended for those who want to cherish time with their partner or bravely convey their feelings to someone special.
