The music video was directed by Yasuyuki Yamaguchi, who has worked on many of Sakamoto’s recent videos, including her 28th single “Hello, Hello,” 29th single “Gyakkou,” 30th single “Uchu no Kioku,” and 31st single “Dokuhaku.” Sakamoto sings inside and outside the gauze curtain, against the backdrop of performance scenes of a string quartet and drummer projected in black-and-white images on a large three-sided three-dimensional curtain.

In addition to the four previously-released anime theme songs, the album will include eight news songs whose concept and images are based on her original story as below:

 

-The “Library of Memories” is a memory repository that manages the memories of people from all over the world. A boy who collects “discarded memories” there returns some memory boxes to the window of their owner on a whim. What kind of music overflowed when he opened them?
