Single information

"Believe" is the group's first single to have two music videos: a live action and an animated version. The animated video was released on Dwango by animation studio Tatsunoko and the group's record label J Storm. It was later re-released as a bonus in the group's 10th anniversary DVD 5x10 All the Best! Clips 1999-2009 on October 28, 2009.[1] In the animated video, the members transformed into characters from Tatsunoko's Time Bokan anime series.[2] The live action is included in one of the limited editions of the single.

For "Kumorinochi, Kaisei", Ohno sang the track solo and released it under his drama character's name, Шаблон:Nihongo.[3] The song was also named Best Theme Song in the 60th Television Drama Academy Awards.[4]
