Background

This triple A-Side single was announced on March 12 during the first night of "Morning Musume '16 Concert Tour Haru ~EMOTION IN MOTION~. Although no titles were announced, "Tokyo to Iu Katasumi" was performed on the same night of the announcement. Two days later, the titles were announced via their Official website citing the temporary title as "Tokyo to Iu Katasumi / The Vision / Utakata Saturday Night! (Temporary) (Order undecided)".

On April 6, the official order of songs was announced. The first and last title was switched, with no changes on all three titles. Their producer, Tsunku, also posted his comments regarding the latter two songs.[2] He revealed that he wrote "The Vision" about people having a vision of a beautiful future. Subsequently, "The Vision" was performed for the first time on that same weekend.
