This is the band's second album to be created and produced with Harvey Mason.

[2] Casiopea did a domestic tour in late November and December after this album's release, which inspired the Mint Jams concert sessions in February of the following year.

The album's name has a double meaning: first referring to an intersection for roadways, like on the cover art, and secondly, as it says on the LP's OBI paper strip: "The music scene has reached a new cross-point.

"[3] This is the first album fully recorded with Mukaiya's GS-1 synth, gifted to him by YAMAHA.

The CD release and vinyl include a pamphlet documenting the band's history, written by bassist Tetsuo Sakurai.
