The arena tour was the first tour by SAKANAQUARIUM in about two years, after a hiatus due to Ichiro Yamaguchi's (Vo/G) health problems, with a total of 15 performances in 8 cities across Japan. Each venue was filled with the audience who had been eagerly awaiting the band's return. The tour was a crossover of the band's impressive performance, a variety of songs, and elaborate stage production, and truly marked the "complete revival" of sakanaction. Yusuke Tanaka, who served as the overall director of the tour, was in charge of everything from video direction to product design for this video production. The concept of the live performance is literally projected onto the product.
