Trivia
THEORY -164 feat.GUMI- is 164's third album featuring the synthesized vocals of GUMI.
According to 164, 天ノ弱's title has a double meaning: "天ノ弱 (ama no jaku)→天邪鬼 (ama no jaku, a contrary person) and 天性 ノ 弱虫 (tensei no yowamushi, a born coward)".
天ノ弱 was added to SOUND VOLTEX BOOTH on August 3rd, 2012. Its charts can be purchased for 20 BLOCKS for ADVANCED, and 60 BLOCKS for EXHAUST. Also, you have to meet these prerequisites to purchase its charts:

天ノ弱 was added to pop'n music Sunny Park on September 19th, 2013 as a default song.
GUMI is not selectable as a player character in pop'n music.
While GUMI used her GREAT animation for her FEVER animation (which can be seen by playing a song with GUMI as the rival character and clearing a Highlight Zone), a different, unused FEVER animation could be found on the data (although it could be seen by hacking GUMI as a player character as her regular FEVER animation). Since pop'n music うさぎと猫と少年の夢, this latter FEVER animation is used by GUMI even as a rival character.
In pop'n music, 天ノ弱 is not keysounded.
In pop'n music, instead of displaying its character's portrait, 天ノ弱 displays its jacket on the songwheel.
