The 45-second trailer offers a glimpse at the first episode, titled Seishun Shakumanen, and introduces the major cast members. Theme song The Girls Are Alright! by Saya plays as a background track for the promo.

Kadokawa describes the title as:
Scenery that we have never seen
Sounds that we have never heard
Scent that we have never smelled
Food that we have never tasted
And the surge of emotion that we have never experiencedThis is the expedition of recollecting the pieces torn apart and sensation left alone
When we reach that place, what will we think?
Howling, 40 degrees angle
Raging, 50 degrees angle
Shouting, 60 degrees angleA wilderness beyond the heavy sea
The furthest south, far from the civilization
At the top of the EarthWe will find lights through the girls’ eyes to live tomorrow
