The album reached #2 on Oricon.[1] It was certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of Japan.[2] In South Korea, the album reached #86 on the Gaon Album Chart.[3]

In November 2012, a couple of weeks before the release of the album, Yui announced her decision to go on a hiatus at the end of the year.[4][5] The album was described as YUI's first and probably last "best of" album.[6]
