This is a song that parallels a girl’s struggle as she tries to take a step beyond friendship with the friend she’s drawn to, with the lyrical atmosphere of summer.

GUMI’s bright and cute vocals, on the contrary, heighten the song’s loneliness and wistfulness.

It’s a track perfect for summer listening.

When you listen to it together with the PV, it feels like you’ve read an entire romance manga.

Caught between friendship and love, it poignantly and coolly sings about someone pushing forward with nothing but their feelings for the person they like as their weapon.

I think the phrase “my heart skips a beat” is probably meant for moments like this.
