In particular, the title song ‘Act Like That’ is a pop dance song that stands out with its fast rhythm and stimulating, addictive sound, and is gaining attention for containing the message of Zenblue‘s ambition to confidently soar as they have done so far without being conscious of the eyes of those around them at every moment they move forward into the world.
