Overall, I'd say it sounds quite nice.

Oh, I'm sure certain people will complain that the song is not like Colors or World End, for example, but I actually prefer it. Why? Because this particular type of theme seems more appropriate for helping to set the mood here, considering the expected content isn't exactly meant to be too optimistic or upbeat.

And, likewise, it's certainly a better listen than the other piece of background music they've used for the promotional videos (which I didn't hate, to be honest, but it was obviously not very orthodox to say the least).

Damn, Maaya's gettin older hahaha. Still though, I likes. That clip just inspired me on my own beatmaking journey and Kanno is STILL an F'n genius!!

I definitely like the song. Very Kanno-seque. I'm continually amazed at how vast her musical range is. Thought Maaya Sakamoto's voice was a very good match.
