On April 3, 2024, Epic Records Japan released the "Sci-Fi Edit" version as the third single from Utada's first greatest hits album, Science Fiction (2024).

Yuichi Kodama directed two music videos for the song, the live recorded version and the Sci-Fi edit, both of which were shot at the Yokohama Hakkeijima Sea Paradise, with the latter featuring re-edited footage from the original.

[4][6] Andrew Ryce from Resident Advisor described it as a "smouldering torch song sung to a distant lover," noting that the lyrics are in both English and Japanese.

[5] Lars Gotrich from NPR Music described it as a "hypnotic disco train" with "soft-panning bongos, 808 kick drums, and funky synths glide".

[6] Pitchfork editor Joshua Minsoo Kim called it a "lively Balearic house epic with acid squelches, hand percussion, and an irresistible depiction of romance.

[13] Kodama also directed a live music video at Yokohama Hakkeijima Sea Paradise, in which Utada performs the song while various audience members dance and walk around an aquarium.

[14] The visual was released in two formats: vertical angle and panorama, and premiered exclusively to Spotify in part of their five-year anniversary celebration of the service launching in Japan.

[4] Ryce went on to describe it as follows: "It's not quite a dance floor album—it's too subtle and stately for that—but it's somewhere wonderfully in-between, an amorous ballad you can tap your foot to, a track that channels the frenetic energy of acid house something a little more relaxed...".

[4] Similarly, Lars Gotrich of NPR compared it to Shepherd's collaboration with Pharoah Sanders on his album Promises (2021), writing "even when we depart or disintegrate their transcendent voice, it's implied in the production's undulating shape, still shimmering in awe of Hikaru Utada's presence.

"[6] Joshua Minsoo Kim of Pitchfork noted the song's lyricism and overall themes, writing, "Inspiration can't help but strike in a locale this rich in beauty, so across 12 minutes, Utada conjures up a similarly expansive space overflowing with possibility.

"[26] Slant Magazine writer Paul Attard described the song as "groovy" and "globe-trotting," while Jordan Danville from The Fader praised its sound, writing "all-encompassing delirium is the music of Utada's heart...".
