[6] "Tsuki to Hoshi ga Odoru Midnight'' was announced on September 10, 2022, during the first concert of Hinatazaka46's nationwide Happy Smile Tour 2022 at the Aichi Sky Expo, followed by the first live performance of the title song.

In addition to Saitō, the front row of the choreography features members who have been the centers of the group's previous main songs (Nao Kosaka, Mirei Sasaki, Shiho Katō, and Miku Kanemura).

[17][18] "Tsuki to Hoshi ga Odoru Midnight" sold 423 thousand copies within three days after release, according to Billboard Japan.

[19] On "10-byō Tenshi", Real Sound commented that the four singers' well-balanced singing voices well expressed the "bittersweet" themes of first love and the end of summer, and that the "relaxed" song would likely be used to "cool down" between the group's more intense numbers during live performances.
