Untranslated.
This song has a pretty, classical feeling, and you can experience a very refined, deep~, and fantastical atmosphere

The trance tracks in IIDX so far have been comparatively hard and rough, but there's more to trance than just that. I've tried to bring out more of the beautiful, gentler nature of trance with this track, REINCARNATION. You should have a trance to go along with your trance music, eh?<br>
Most trance tracks in IIDX have had a relatively hard and rough feeling, but trance has a broader meaning, and with REINCARNATION, I tried to express a beautiful feeling which has never been heard in trance until now.<br>
This is the first time VJ GYO has done a video for one of my songs like this; it surprised even me. (Well, we did have [[Second Style (Hip Hop Paradise)|that one live-action video]]...) Does this show us TRAN's former life!?
When I say trance, does it mean trance?<br>
Surprisingly, this is the first combination between my track and VJ GYO's CG movie (there was a [[Second Style(Hip Hop Paradise)|live-action video]] though~).<br>
Does this video finally reveal TRAN's previous life?!

TRAN has become very popular among IIDX fans. Thank you all. It makes me happier than I can say! I hope you'll all continue to like her from now on. Now, when we heard that dj TAKA was going to do a trance song, we thought it would be nice if TRAN could benefit from being paired with a long-expected TAKA trance piece, so I decided right away that I should make a TRAN video for the song. There's also a dramatic development within the beauty of this song, which is rather characteristic of suddenly being dropped into something like a medieval fantasy world. It's not an out-of-body experience or a time slip, but reincarnation. I said I wanted to do a video with that theme, and got the approval, so that also became the name of the song. In this video an angel(-like) TRAN fights a devil(-like being) in her former life. I realized I wouldn't have time to put more than that into the video, and you'll notice that the world of her former life doesn't really look anything like the world she's in after reincarnation. Maybe I should have left something out for consistency's sake.
TRAN is extremely popular among all beatmania IIDX fans.<br>
Thank you very much. I'm very happy!<br>
Please treat her well from now on.<br>
Well, when there were discussions for dj TAKA to create a long-awaited trance song, he wanted the popular TRAN to also appear in its movie, so I immediately decided to include her.<br>
There's also a unique part in this song where there's dramatic changes in the development of its beauty, as if you suddenly entered something like "a medieval fantasy world".<br>
The song title was given after the idea to create a story with the theme of reincarnation was approved, instead of having a stimulated experience or time slip.<br>
An angel(-like being) fights a devil(-like being) in TRAN's previous life, but I realized halfway through production that I didn't have time to include anything else, and I regret removing scenes which show that the era of her previous life (world) is completely different now after her reincarnation.
