The song reached number 3 on Oricon's single's chart,[1] and ranked first in the annual chart of the radio show "Ten Best National Songs". The single was originally planned for release on January 15, but since that day was the Japanese holiday Coming of Age Day, the release was postponed until January 16 because of fears that primary school children who are Dragon Quest fans would overwhelm record stores.
The song was included in a 2011 charity album produced in the aftermath of the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami.
