Also returning, The EasyRabbit CreArtions, a duo of Spanish artists David López Gómez and Carlos Vincente León, provided the cover art of a wolf.

Midori described the art, "The chained sphere is a metaphor for the unstable and weakened Earth, representing the current state of the world.

Describing church music as "powerful," particularly when enhanced by worshipers, the guitarist arranged the song to be "sacred" and church-like in a broad sense.

[2] Midori cited the unison and harmony between the two guitars and bass on "Glory to the World" as the most difficult thing on the EP due to how fast some phrases are.

[2] Previously she wrote ballad-type tracks, but decided to give thrash a try as she enjoys performing Lovebites' songs "The Hammer of Wrath", "M.D.O."

[1] The vocalist revealed that since she can not play guitar, she writes the riffs on piano, which makes it difficult for guitarists Midori and Miyako to replicate.

Lovebites were shown a rough version of the show, which they used to influence the music and lyrics, and were asked by the anime's staff to make it about the vampire girl character Mai.

[2] She made it during spring 2020 and initially did not plan to make it into a full song, revealing that it took a lot of trial and error to fit the 89-second time limit of the opening animation.

[11] The music video for "Glory to the World" features the band playing in a church and an actor portraying Jesus Christ resurrected in the current era.

[15] Victor released a limited edition 12" vinyl record version of the EP, that includes "Winds of Transylvania", on September 28, 2022 under the Japanese title Kōtetsu no Fukuin (鋼鉄の福音, "Gospel of Steel").

He described opening track "Glory to the World" as creating an "ethereal, almost quasi-religious feel that makes the coming storm even more volatile" and called "No Time to Hesitate" a "punchy, hard-hitting" "metal masterclass" that highlights Haruna's drumming.

[25] In an 8/10 review for Distorted Sound, Sam Khaneka wrote that Lovebites took a less-is-more approach with the EP by creating a handful of songs that "all exude their own distinct character."

He cited the "angelic splendour" of "Glory to the World" and the "neoclassical nightmare" of "Dystopia Symphony" as representing two of the band's best songs to date, "while also showcasing the breadth of their sound; from the overwhelmingly upbeat to the downright menacing."

Although criticizing the lyrics of "No Time to Hesitate" as "merely do[ing] their job during the verses," he praised its chorus vocal melody for sticking in the listener's head for days.

Despite praising Haruna's drumming "punctuated with exciting guitar textures and Asami's soaring vocals over the top which contains the chaos and brings everything together cohesively," Beard felt that "Dystopia Symphony" was "just not as memorable" and a slight misstep.

[19] Metal Talk wrote that "Glory to the World" has an uplifting symphonic chorus and a twin guitar section that would make Iron Maiden and Judas Priest envious.
