There are still some details about the release that are currently unknown, such as the only CD information for all the different editions is that they will all be 4 tracks in total with the first track being the title track but no further information about the other 3 tracks.
The first limited edition will be a CD with DVD combo. There is no mention of what is on the DVD but it is probably safe to assume one thing that will be included is the music video for the title track. The limited edition will also come with a trading card randomly selected from a set of ten that is exclusive to this version.
The second limited edition is a CD and booklet combo. The booklet will be a 28-page photo booklet. The limited edition will also come with a trading card randomly selected from a set of ten that is exclusive to this version.
Then there is the regular edition that is just the CD.
Different shops will have different first press bonuses included for pre-ordering the singles. For the CDJapan links I have in this post that bonus will be a clearfile for each copy.
While the release date is a little later than the November debut that was announced it was not delayed enough to make too much a difference. What is more important is that the group has a new release to promote if they get on end of year music programs. I do think they have a good chance of that with how popular they have gotten with just their pre-debut release. And I have to speculate that this date may have been chosen in hopes they do not have strong competition that week and can get a #1 debut single with this. A hard feat to do near the end of the year as that is usually the time for Japanese artists to release new music to make use of the end of year programs and the extra spending that comes with the season.
What I am most curious about is the full track listing. While there has to be at least one B-side I would be disappointed if that is it and the other two tracks are just karaoke/off vocal versions of the title track and B-side. Not to mention I would like to know if the different versions would have different B-sides as while I am willing to pick up the limited editions for this release, I want to know if the regular edition is something I need to budget for. At least there is a good amount of time before the release to make that decision.
Overall I am just excited for this debut single to be announced, and hope we are not made to wait long to get to hear the title track.
