The 'without U' reissue features contributions from SCRAMBLES, known for producing BiS and BiSH, along with young track makers and popular doujin and vocaloid culture artists. The 'Re:Creating world' reissue includes bonus tracks: 'Overture', 'Creating world 2020ver.', and 'Blue Dream Acoustic ver.', which were previously DLC exclusives. Both CDs are priced at 3,300 yen each. The 'without U' edition (product number HOLO-028) comes with an alternate jacket card for initial pressings.
