"It is a feeling that was never conveyed...
Unspoken days of peace."

The CD also includes the original duet song Find Out! ~ Compass of Hope ~ sung by Asimov (Masashi Yukita) and Moniqa (Moemi Otaka), the release of the game's credits theme Cyanotype, their karaoke versions, and the karaoke versions of several other songs from the game.
Although the CD was not officially released outside of Japan, the tracks have received fan translated English subtitles and been uploaded to Youtube. The English and Japanese scripts can be found on the Scripts page.

Creative Notes

- 【????】:
That person you can fight when you meet certain conditions. You'll know why I'm mentioning it here... If you've played the main game to the end. This boss electrifies the ground when he loses HP, but actually the specification document said the ground should be continuously electrified until the fight is over. I was forced to omit this feature since it was way more OP than expected, but if you wait at least 4 minutes before depleting ⅓ of the boss' HP, his original specs will return. To put it simply, remember not to attack him until you're unable to see the Earth on the background. Moreover, I threw a tantrum and added this boss at the very end of development. This is why his movement patterns are so simple. In the initial plot I received, the barrier surrounding Japan immediately disappears when Anthem GV defeats Nova, and several missiles approach from overseas. The game ends when Asimov shows a smile of triumph while seeing this happening. But I desperately wanted a fight against him at the end, coming up with the current ending.
