The album's cover art is based on Austrian painter Gustav Klimt's Gold Fish.[6] The limited edition version of Yume Miru Uchuu has a different cover based on the painting and came with a DVD of footage from the band's June 10, 2012 concert at Hibiya Open-Air Concert Hall. It also contained the promotional video for "Climax Together", which was filmed on August 5 at Shinjuku Loft in front of 300 fans. Fans who bought both of the album's singles, "Miss Take ~Boku wa Miss Take~" and "Elise no Tame ni", were chosen by lottery to win tickets to the video shoot.[2]
