Trivia
The regular edition features the painting Ballet dit aussi L'étoile by Edgar Degas. For this album and the accompanying singles, the band took the concept of the five elements: fire, earth, water, air, and light. This release would be Anzi's last before departing from Matenrou Opera, pursuing a solo career henceforth. The bonus track, Uso no Nai Watashi de, was originally written for the idol singer Momoko Kanade.
The track ether was used in the movie adaptation of Shinreishashinbu, and Chimeisho was used as the opening song for the anime Orenchi no Furo
Jijou.
The limited edition flyer, containing a stamp, mentions that those who buy the limited edition of Chikyu as well as the first press of the regular
editon could participate. Both container a flyer with a stamp and upon sending both in before 02/10/2016 three prizes could be won:
A: cheki from the "Chikyu -The Elements-TOUR". The winner for this prize would be able to pick up their cheki when attending the
04/05-2016 EX THEATER ROPPONGI concert. The cheki would be handed out before the show. A concert ticket is not included with the present and needed to be bought separately. Winners of prize
A are also eligible for the other prizes (as in winning one prize does not cancel out the possibility of winning another prize). It is not mentioned how many of these were given out.
B: "Chikyu -The Elements-TOUR" merchandise signed by the members. 5 of these were given out.
C: A signed Chikyu announcement poster. 10 were given out.
The other side of the flyer lists tour dates.

tour.
