The barcode is obscured by a red promotional sticker, and the CD has 'Sample' printed on the inside centre of the CD. The jewel case contains a 12-page booklet listing credits and a slightly larger 28-page full-colour booklet including song lyrics (in both Japanese and English), photos, drawings, and liner notes (in Japanese).
