Outline

[edit]

This album is filled with the idea of "playing together using the 'music = toy' produced by Kis-My-Ft2, sharing happiness and excitement, and enriching and coloring our lives. The entire album, including songs, videos, and special features, is full of playfulness, genre-less, and rich in variety.[1]

The album was released in three formats: First edition A/B and regular edition.

The DVD included with the first pressing A includes the music video for the lead track "To Yours," the jacket booklet, a making-of video closely following the shooting of the music video, and off-shot footage from "ASIA FASHION AWARD 2019 in TAIPEI," the group's first overseas performance. The DVD included with the first edition B includes the original variety show "KIS-MY-TV ~Kiss My Real Sugoroku~". The standard edition includes the secret track "Seeds", and the bonus CD contains four unit songs. if you purchase all three forms at the same time, you will receive a visual card with a serial code on it on a first-come, first-served basis.
