-Batteries' Comments-
Ace
"I was happy to meet Gagaga SP for the first time, who uses the song "Chokkyuu Shobu no Otoko" for the intro.
The lyrics are great and even I can understand them easily, they really hit home.
The lyrics are mostly what I think, so I'd like it to become like a theme song for us.
I will never change my intro from "Straightforward Man," and if I were to change it, it would be "Que Sera Sera" (laughs)."

Temple
"From the first time I heard it, I knew Ace would be a good fit.
I was so nervous to meet Gagaga SP, who I used to sing and listen to at karaoke with my friends in high school.
I finished the recording feeling light-hearted, haha."

When the members heard that the Batteries were using Gagaga SP's "Chokkyuu Shobu no Otoko" as their introductory music,
We all cheered for them when they participated in last year's M-1.
We hope that this song, which marks the first time the two groups have teamed up, will reach many people along with this product.
