Controversy[]
The Outfits worn on the cover of the album are incredibly similar to San Francisco-based designer Elena Slivnyak of Project Runway.[1].
Slivnyak wrote on Facebook:
"To all IIMUAHII fans, especially the ones in Japan, I want to make an official announcement that the Momoiro Clover Z, 5th Dimension costumes were based on my concept and design from the Fall/Winter 2012 collection. King Records was given permission and the go ahead by me to do so. P
Further more, I'm very excited to announce that there will be a future collaboration on costuming between IIMUAHII and Momoiro Clover Z. I want to thank all of my fans from the bottom of my heart for your continuous support. Without you there would be no IIMUAHII."
Trivia[]
- There is sometimes confusion about the number of tracks on the bonus CD. The back of the package lists 12 songs. However, the disc actually contains 23 tracks. The included booklet lists all 23 tracks, with the additional 11 being spoken content.
