Singles

edit

To promote the album, two singles were released: "Puzzle/Revive" and "Beautiful". On the Oricon single chart "Puzzle/Revive" entered the top 3, becoming Kuraki's first single since "Ashita e Kakeru Hashi" (明日へ架ける橋, "Bridge to Tomorrow") in 2004 to do so.[3] "Puzzle" was the ending theme song for the thirteenth Detective Conan movie Detective Conan: The Raven Chaser.[4] Unlike "Puzzle", "Revive" was not on the album.[5] "Beautiful" was used as the image song for the cosmetic company Kose's Coseport Salon Style.[6] The single ranked higher than "Puzzle/Revive" debuting at No. 2, which extended Kuraki's record as the only female solo artist to have all 32 of her singles in the Top 10 since her debut.[7]
