+The title "ABSOLUTE" means "definitely" or "perfectly unmatched". As title suggests, this number is filled with positivity and brightness. The refrain phrases used in the beginning and ending sections are so impressive, that you won't forget once you hear them. The vibrant synths give you happiness. The middle section suddenly becomes melodious, and its balance with the main phrase is exquisite. This song demonstrates dj TAKA's skill, who also composed "[[Quickening]]".
