Several songs of the album were used way ahead of its release date in anime, TV series and sports events. "Deathtopia" was released as a single on August 3, 2016, and both the song and its b-side "Chou Onsoku Desutini" (which is also the album's fourth track) were used as the opening themes of the anime Kuromukuro. "Sora ga Aozora de Aru Tame ni" was also used as an opening theme for an anime: Ace of Diamond. " The Other End of the Globe" was used as the opening theme for Netflix's Final Fantasy XIV: Daddy of Light. "Scoop" was used as the ending theme of TV Asahi's Onegai! Ranking.

"XYZ" was composed for the TV commercial of the Chiba leg of the 2017 Red Bull Air Race World Championship. "Long Run" was used as the official song of the 2017 Hokkaido Marathon. Also, "Supernova Express 2017" is a new version of the previously released song "Supernova Express 2016", which was used as the image song of Hokkaido Railway Company's Hokkaido Shinkansen.
