Trivia

  • 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 2011.
  • The limited edition of 天庭 contains a DVD disc with new music videos for 天庭, the original つばめ, and 猿の経.
  • Despite having a different title, まほろば教 is a long version of 鬼言集. A different cut of まほろば教 is used in REFLEC BEAT colette -Winter-.
  • An interview with Asaki on 4Gamer reveals some details about 天庭:
    • The album version of つばめ sounds very different compared with the original つばめ from pop'n music 15 ADVENTURE. Asaki stated that he changed it to fit the theme of 天庭 (which was changed during the time when he was ill).
    • Likewise, he also stated that まほろば教 was going to last for 18 minutes before shortening it to 9 minutes. This was because he could not fit all of 鬼言集's story in 天庭.
    • Asaki left all of the artist information out because he wanted to convey a mysterious feeling for the album.
  • The Q&A section of 天庭 (archived) reveals other details about the album:
    • He wanted to include 水面静かに大地の烈日わたらせて in 天庭, but he was ill at the time when he decided on the track list for the album.
    • He did not include 猿の経 in 天庭 as he thinks that the song does not need to be longer.
    • 天庭 (the song) was originally planned to last for 20 minutes.
    • Asaki confirmed that the strings are done by Jun Takeuchi and Nakata, among others.
    • 其曰く 教外別伝をして has its lyrics unwritten under Asaki's request, as he deemed them unnecessary as he can understand the story by its title.
    • 天庭 (the song) and 愛のかたち 幸せのかたち is Asaki's favorite song in 天庭. 幸せのかたち (under the title 愛のかたち 幸せのかたち) was added to the album because he wanted an "acoustic feeling" in his album.
    • このひと しりませんか was the quickest song he had made.
    • 散るを踏み 残るを仰ぐ's lyrics are a poem written by Asaki on the front of the album's booklet.
  • According to Asaki, ほしふりの果て 極東史記より is re-interpretation of both ほしふり and 極東史記
