Quiet begins with the chorus unfolds
Asta Konno explained that "Star Trail" begins with a quiet melody, the B section gradually builds momentum, and then unfolds in the chorus. He arranges language according to these paragraphs, aligning the words with the music's process of accumulating and releasing emotions.
The resonance between strings and vocals
Fumiki Matsufumi regards the chorus's interaction between the strings and vocals as the key listening point of the song. The string interlude before the final chorus continues to unfold through harmony and melody, connecting into the chorus.
The prelude and length of the complete piece
In a 2023 developer interview, Kazuya distinguished between the short version used in the public opening video and the full song. He explained that the full track is longer than the opening theme of "ATRI" and unfolds with a grand intro.
Recording of Ikumi Hasegawa's singing
In a 2023 Q&A, Fumifumi Matsufumi reviewed the singing recording of "Star Trail," noting that Ikumi Hasegawa could immediately respond to live requests and was willing to challenge higher pitches. This explanation comes from the composer-arranger who participated in the recording and observed the singing process.
