I tried to somehow make this song more difficult for Gitadora, but it wasn't easy. Since the Gitadora V series didn't have many buttons or pads, I was able to mess around to a certain extent, but with the increased number of buttons in the XG series, I had to think quite a bit about creating charts with an authentically high difficulty level. | ||
After | After much consideration, I felt that it'd be difficult to make this song more difficult, so I discarded it. | ||

Since it's jubeat, I stopped using a complicated 7/8 time signature, and simply used 4/4. Also, even though it isn't a boss song, I needed to make the gameplay exciting to a degree, so I made the chorus 16-beats. | ||

Conversely, there're times when a "this was just an alright result" song has a good reputation. | ||
When I completed this song, I've felt an unprecedented reaction where they said '''"this is amazing!"'''.
