The CD appeared less than 2 months before Berryz Kobo's 5th anniversary. It contained material selected from 18 singles and 6 albums the group had released so far. There's also one new track, "Otoko no Ko",[1] which opens the album.

All songs on the compilation, except one ("Dschinghis Khan", which is a cover of the German band of the same name), are written and produced by Tsunku.

The album was released in two editions: regular (PKCP-5132) and limited (PKCP-5130/1). The Limited Edition came with a DVD containing bonus videos, while the first press of the Regular Edition had a bonus photo card sealed in.[1]

The album debuted at number 4 in the Oricon Daily Albums Chart and eventually ranked 11th for the week.[3]

"Madayade" is the only Berryz Kobo's hit that can't be found on any other their album to date.
