Notes
  1. The main vocalists for "Summer Lion" were chosen from the main vocal audition that was broadcast during Idoling!!!’s TV show, episode 991 (Fuji TV CS, April 30, 2013). On the weekly episode (Fuji TV, May 23, 2013), it was announced that the winners were (ordered by number) #6 Erica Tonooka, #9 Rurika Yokoyama, #22 Ruka Kurata, #25 Kaoru Goto, #26 Chika Ojima.
  2. The "Summer Lion" music video was filmed at Idoling!!!'s TV show studio at Fuji TV. This is the first Idoling!!! PV to feature the TV show's MC, Bakarhythm, and it is also the first time an Idoling!!! PV was directed by the TV show's director, Shimada. The concept of the PV came from Idoling!!!'s newly appointed producer, Takashi Kanbara, who was the producer of the Fuji TV show Quiz! Hexagon.
  3. "Milky Girl" features Hana Taguchi as an exchange student from Sakura Gakuin.
  4. "3-nen me no uwaki" is #12 Yui Kawamura's solo song with the male parts presented in a karaoke style to sing along to. It is a cover song that was originally performed by the duet Hiroshi (Hiroshi Kurosawa) & Kibo (Kiyoko Yamada) in 1982.
gollark: osmarks.net's main server's GPU can handle models of up to around 700 million parameters.
gollark: You might not *need* a giant model for all applications, task performance scales oddly with model size.
gollark: However, good luck getting GPUs for that.
gollark: EleutherAI are releasing their 20-billion-parameter model in about a week.
gollark: It's proprietary.
