"Tsuki no Gen ~Rearrange works~" is a collection of self-rearranged songs by MOTOHARU IWADERA Iwate, AMI KUSAKARI, KEIICHI EJIMA, and EMI OKAZAKI. In addition to the songs from "Rearrange Package," which was produced remotely from spring to summer 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic, the album includes 16 songs, including songs rearranged for live performances such as "Anmyo" and "NF OFFLINE," as well as new rearranged songs created specifically for this album, and all of the songs are labeled with the year of production. New self-rearranged songs such as "Inner World," "Aldebaran," and "Endless" have been produced for this album, making it an exciting opportunity to see the band's latest inclinations.

The second remix collection following the previous one, "Tsuki no Maboroshi ~Remix works~" contains 7 remixes of SAKANACTION songs by artists from Japan and abroad. It includes "years" by Floating Points, which is already a hot topic in the overseas club scene, and remixes by label mate Hiroshi Fujiwara, Cornelius, agraph, Kuniyuki Takahashi, Yon Yon, and other artists at the forefront of the scene both in Japan and abroad.

The key visual is a symbolic image of the "moon," which is the concept of this work, and is a meaningful artwork that suggests that the opposing worlds of "reality" and "illusion" intersect through the mirror. In addition, it has been decided that the special gift for purchasers at each chain will be a changing sticker designed with this visual.
