For Ponpara Pecorna Papiyotta, Yoko Kanno handled the composition, with KenKen, Hideki Aoyama, and Tsuneo Imahori performing, creating a truly star-studded lineup of leading artists. The previous track was about desire for change, while this track explores the internal struggle between whether one should or should not change, depicting the period of turmoil when one transitions from a child to an adult. The music video, directed by Sojiro Kamatani, depicts in a surrealistic dance form the struggles of a young girl, suggesting an edgy world view. The single goes global pre-release online on October 5th, and will be included only in Type A of their latest single “Super Hero”.
