Development
Tsuchiya decided to collaborate with the Kamen Rider Series after her son became a fan of the previous series Kamen Rider OOO, and she had watched the series as a child herself. She was also glad that she was going to perform the song for the franchise's 40th anniversary.[1][2][3] The song was written by Shoko Fujibayashi (lyrics) and tatsuo of the band everset (composition and arrangement).

The single was initially scheduled to be released on October 26, 2011.[3] However its release, along with the release of Maki Ohguro's balladic version of "Anything Goes!", were pushed back by a month for unknown reasons.
