This was their major label debut and was used as part of the mini-debut at Budokan after Emily joined. It wasn't performed a single time live between Yuna leaving and their Budokan concert. If you watch the live clip of this from Budokan you can hear the audience gasp even though the concert was in the middle of the pandemic since the fans never expected to hear it live again. Before this there was still a very big aspect of kawaii pop in the music instead of the electopop of today. It's why all of their tropes that they use even today are at 11 here which includes auto-tune. The fusion of idol and band presentation continues to today much to the chagrin of fans. It makes for some very jumpy edits for live BDs since the editors are trying to cover so much ground. It also annoys the fans that are all in on one aspect of PassCode and don't really care for the other.
My favorite after Emily joined are ``Flavor of Blue`` and ``Freely``. Before Emily joined(untill Yuna leaved), my favorite are ``Bite the Bullet``, ``Same to You``, ``Starry Sky``, ``Club Kids Never Die``, ``Dive Into the Light``, ``Rise in Revolt``. I like the live version of ``RIse in Revolt`` the best. Just in my opinion, live version is much better than MV for PassCode.
Nice, passcode is a good live, next check out their live song
I will eventually !
