- 天庭 was originally planned to be released in 2010. It was not pushed through due to Asaki's illness.
- A preview of 天庭 was released in the 72nd episode of Musician's Room XG.
- Six special album jackets were released alongside the regular jacket for 天庭, all of them created by amamo.
- The album art given to people who pre-ordered or brought the limited edition of 天庭, was later used by 天庭 in REFLEC BEAT colette -Winter-.
- The KONAMI STYLE album art, taken from 天庭's event advertisement posters, was used by つばめ.
- The BUNKYODO album art, which was used by 愛のかたち 幸せのかたち.
- The TOWER RECORDS album art, which was used by まほろば教.
- The album art for "general stores".
- An album art given exclusively to attendees of Asaki's only public event, 『ゲームおじさん（名人）が行く より良い大人になるための教育ツアー 天庭秘密倶楽部2013』.
- Asaki initially had no plans to show his face during production and claimed that the decision to do so was done without his knowledge.
- His favorite special album jackets are the TOWER RECORDS and BUNKYODO album arts, jokingly comparing the latter to a saké label.
- The limited edition of 天庭 contains a DVD disc with a new music video for 天庭, directed by Takuya Tada and starring DAZZLE dancer Tatsuya Hasegawa and makeup artist Asahi Sasaki.
- According to casting director Oi-chan, the music video was planned for shooting in Fall 2010, but it was postponed until November 2011 due to Asaki's illness [1].
- Despite having a different title, まほろば教 is a long version of 鬼言集.
- Interviews with Asaki on 4Gamer and the Q&A section of 天庭 (archived) reveal details about 天庭:
- While no other artist is credited on the album, he confirms that the strings were performed by Jun Takeuchi and Nakata, and that Jun Wakita and Naoyuki Sato were involved in some way for some of the songs in the album.
- He also confirmed that that he used sample drums for some songs, and that he performed the belly drums for 白きを廻り 黒きの巡り.
- 天庭 (the song) was originally planned to last for 12 minutes before it was shortened, claiming that he will never be able to finish 天庭 on its original length.
- Likewise, まほろば教 was going to last for 18 minutes before shortening it to 9 minutes, since he could not fit all of 鬼言集's story in 天庭.
- 水面静かに大地の烈日わたらせて was planned for its inclusion in 天庭, but Asaki was ill at the time when he decided on the track list for the album.
- 猿の経 was not included in 天庭 as Asaki thinks that the song does not need to be longer.
- He attempted to make a long version of つばめ from pop'n music 15 ADVENTURE after his recuperation, but he later changed the entire song to fit the "more vivid" theme of 天庭 (which was more commercial-focused before his illness).
- ほしふりの果て 極東史記より is meant to be a re-interpretation of both ほしふり and 極東史記.
- 其曰く 教外別伝をして has its lyrics unwritten under Asaki's request, as he deemed them unnecessary to write them in the album, since its story can be understood by its title.
- Its title translates to "It is said that by attending wordless awakening". In Zen Buddhism, kyougebetsuden (教外別伝) refers to a spiritual awakening that cannot be experienced or attained with written and spoken words, only by the communion of heart with mind.
- このひと しりませんか was the quickest song he had made. He encourages people to use it as a ringtone or a clock alarm sound.
- 天庭 and 愛のかたち 幸せのかたち are Asaki's favorite songs in the album; the latter was added to the album because he wanted an "acoustic tone".
- His favorite song to perform, however, is つばめ, claiming he felt a sense of accomplishment out of singing it.
- 散るを踏み 残るを仰ぐ's lyrics are a poem written by Asaki on the front and back of the album's booklet. He notes that the handwritings are amamo's and not his, claiming that his own handwriting looks like "cute kanjis". It reads on the front:
- While no other artist is credited on the album, he confirms that the strings were performed by Jun Takeuchi and Nakata, and that Jun Wakita and Naoyuki Sato were involved in some way for some of the songs in the album.
何度も言うが 何度も何度も言うが 手を変え 品を変え 様々な事例を挙げ 幾度となく言うが 光など無い 存在しない 幸せなど無い 幻想だ 孤独が良い 今までも これからも 孤独なのが良い 希望をもってはいけない お前は未来永劫ひとり 死んでもひとり 生きてもひとり 永遠にひとりだ 誰も信用してはいけない 愛など存在しない すべてまやかしだ 幻想だ くだらないことだ 騙されてはいけない これが現実だ 例外は無い これが現実で真実だ どうしようもない どうしようもないことだ いいか 小さなものも 大きなものも 皆 必ず 救われない 絶望的だ 終わり |
- On the back, it reads:
生も死も 残照比ひ 飲み込めり |
