Sekai wa Anata no Iro ni Naru — The Color This World Will Take Depends on You, 世界はあなたの色になる
File:e2 01.ogg The fifth movie theme provided by the band for the Detective Conan film franchise, "Sekai wa Anata no Iro ni Naru" is a special entry for several reasons. The darker tone of the music intentionally contrasts with other songs B'z have contributed to the series. In the writing and recording process, Koshi noted that they aimed to create a different sort of song because the movie itself intended to center in on some of the "darker parts of Conan's story".
Fukiarenasai — Blow Violently, フキアレナサイ
File:e3 01.ogg Envisioned as a winter version of "ultra soul", "Fukiarenasei" was written for the action film Shippu Rondo. Due to both members' ongoing solo projects, the song was recorded and produced separately while Koshi worked with Stevie Salas in Tokyo and Tak worked with Daniel Ho in Los Angeles. The track features Jason Sutter and occasional B'z collaborator Juan Alderete on drums and bass, respectively, with the former having worked with Tak during production on enigma and on tour for Tak Matsumoto Tour 2016 -The Voyage-.

Seimei/Still Alive CD & DVD Edition The CD & DVD edition includes the single CD alongside a bonus DVD featuring a dedicated music video for second A-side "Still Alive". The first footage of the video was premiered on a May episode of Music Station in which it was noted that its conceptual premise was "hajimari" (Beginnings). The video features the band performing against a CGI background and is reminiscent of those for "SUPER LOVE SONG" and "BURN -Fumetsu no Face-".	Seimei/Still Alive "UCC Black" Edition The special "UCC Black" Edition includes the single CD and a specially designed coaster set featuring B'z insignias and decals. The retail price came in at 2160 yen, making it the most expensive of the three variations available for the single. Additionally, a redemption code included only in the "UCC Black" package gives purchasers the chance to be one of 10,000 to receive a set of B'z-branded cans of the drink itself.
