The lineup for the title track and supporting B-sides was determined by the results from the AKB48's 2014 general election.[3] Mayu Watanabe of AKB48's Team B received the most votes and became the center, or headlining performer, for the single.[1][3][4]
The single was released in five types: Type A (two versions: regular and limited), Type K (regular and limited), Type B (regular and limited), Type D (regular and limited) and the Theater Edition.
The lyrics of the song were written by Yasushi Akimoto, the music composed by Yusuke Itagaki.
