-The music that was born from my own world has expanded even farther thanks to the movies of our designer, Maya. I hope that the world of "Xepher" expands again thanks to your play next. In that spirit, I gave the song a title beginning with the letter signifying the unknown, "X".
+A song conceived within my world, further expanded by the designer MAYA's MOVIE.<br>
+Next, I'd like you to further expand this world called "Xepher" by playing it.<br>
+That's why I gave the first letter of this song title "X", which means "the unknown".
-For the choir in this song, we decided on Junko Hirata from [[platoniX]] as well as Natori Yumi from the gospel world. I certainly hope you will pay close attention to the singing as well.
+I asked platoniX's JunkoHirata and Yumi Natori from the gospel world to participate in this choir. By all means, please also pay attention to their voices.

-I've been fighting to expand the world of Tatsh's "Xepher" even further since the demo stage. "It's not this", "it's not that" ...
+We had several discussions from its demo stage to further expand Tatsh's "Xepher" world.<br>
+It's not like that~, it's not like this~..., and.
-Xepher really began to take its hold on me when I was entrusted with the lyrics. There isn't very much singing in the song, but there was actually a very long rough draft of the lyrics. Tatsh took parts of it and came up with the actual lyrics for the song. If possible, I don't want to hang "Xepher" to death with concrete words. I believe you can get an interpretation of my Xepher through the lyrics on the G2ARTS works, which were one of the candidates for the final lyrics.
+"Xepher" penetrated through me from the moment I was in charge of its lyrics.<br>
+There are very few singing parts in this song, but actually, there's a very long and rough lyrics draft.<br>
