At the same time, the tracklist has been released. It includes the lead track 'Doushiyokana' written by Soyeon, a ballad with all Japanese lyrics 'Aisenakatta Sekai e Eien ni Jaa ne', 'Invincible', and the Japanese versions of the hit songs 'Kizutsuku no wa Kirai dakara' (Fate) and 'Queencard (Japanese ver.)', totaling 5 songs. This EP allows listeners to experience both the past and future of i-dle.
