The song is an original written with the program, built around a spell-like phrase meant to be hummed. Edward Group, the Sendai company behind the project, also employs Kikai, so the creative work stays inside the same corporate family. Broadcasters are NHK General TV, E-TV, NHK AM, and NHK FM, and NHK ONE carries simultaneous and catch-up streams during the run. The project started activities in May 2024 and reports more than 2.4 million YouTube subscribers and 4.5 billion total views. It held sold-out solo hall concerts in Sendai, Tokyo, and Osaka in 2026, and returns to Talknet Hall Sendai on Sunday, January 31, 2027, where the song is scheduled to be performed.
