- Information
"Japanication" is the indie debut single released by SPYAIR. It was their first indie single released under the indie label, U-PROJECT. Although it did not chart on the Oricon weekly charts, the single is now permanently out of print and very difficult to obtain or may be traded on an online auction at a high price.
Around two years later, "Japanication" is re-released as their third major single (fifth overall) with different tracklist from the indie single. It was released in two versions; a limited edition containing a DVD with a music video of the title track, and a regular CD-only edition. The single reached #84 on Oricon weekly charts, and charted only for 1 week, thus making it SPYAIR's lowest-selling single to date.
