The song is highly popular with ''Pump It Up'' fans, not only for the song's Classical rock-style melody, but because of the [[{{Animesque}} anime-style]] video that accompanies it, for both having animation that's considered to be higher quality than most other [=BGAs=] in the franchise and for its narrative. The video is even the Trope page for the game! A later remix called Canon X.1 was later released, only it's not a follow up to the first story (despite the video officially being titled Canon-D Part of the Memories #1), and instead tells a separate story that's [[ShoutOut inspired by]] ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion''.

("All that it does is go dooby-dooby-dooby-dooby...")
