Contents

This is their first single in about 7 months since their previous single "Sha la la Summer Time" and their first triple A-side single. All three songs on the triple A-side are commercial tie-ups. [2]

The CD is a triple A-side single consisting of three songs: "Tonight", "The World Where You Are", and "Seven Wishes". Limited Edition A DVD included Music Video for "Tonight" with a wild and sexy theme, while Limited Edition B DVD came with the PV for "The World Where You Are" with a love and cute theme and a making-of featurette. [3] [4]

The music video for "Tonight" is the aggressive dance performance with a full-frontal badboys, the CG images are also a highlight of the video. As if to show the rising fighting spirit of the members, a huge coliseum gradually emerges from the rocky mountains. [5] The Colosseum in the video is based on the motif of the Colosseum in ancient Rome and incorporates elements of Japanese castles, creating an innovative giant circular structure that blends the Japanese and Western worlds with the help of CG technology. [5] In the music video, the full Colosseum is revealed in the latter half of the song, and the story follows the members' journey to the Colosseum. The costumes are a blend of Japanese and Western styles, with all members revealing the skin of their right arms in pursuit of sexiness. [5]

Also, for the first time in a single song, member Kento Senga is in charge of choreography. [6] The dance performance is a dance performance that fully expresses the sense of badboys that is the starting point of Kis-My-Ft2. Senga commented, "I made the sexy choreography for this dance with the feeling of inviting women, so I hope you will be excited to see it. [6]

The filming took place indoors in extremely cold temperatures of 2 degrees Celsius, and the dance scenes, in which the members were divided into solos and groups, were arranged by the members, with Nikaido and Senga incorporating backflips. [5]

Nikaido said, "I think you can see the sense of badboys of Kis-My-Ft2 in this music video, so please look forward to it!". Tamamori added, "It's been a while since I've done a music video that focuses on dance, so I think it's worth watching. This single is a triple A-side, so I hope you can enjoy the different atmospheres of Kis-My-Ft2". [6]
