Composition and reception

"Shukufuku" is a electropop and dance-pop song with "catchy" melodies and "throbbing" beats, written and produced by Ayase, a duo member.^[18] It depicts the relationship between the main protagonists Suletta Mercury and her XVX-016 Gundam Aerial, narrated from the perspective of the Gundam, fighting alongside their host and watching her lead-up to the events of the anime and reminding "the adherence to and liberation from oppression."^[19][20] It was composed in the key of E minor, 170 beats per minute with a running time of three minutes and 16 seconds.^[21]

Real Sound's Tsuki no Hito described the composition of "Shukufuku" that "the piano sound is gorgeous, and the arrangement is full of sprinting, but the uneasiness hidden throughout the phrase has a thrilling feel suitable for Gundam works with many battle scenes,"^[19] while said that "the sound image [of "Shukufuku"] coexists suppleness, beauty, and strength, highlighting the world view of The Witch from Mercury while vividly demonstrating Yoasobi's innovation."^[22] Nahda Nabiilah from Game Rant praised the song as "providing an upbeat tune that can raise the listener's energy and build up their enthusiasm to start the anime episodes."^[18] Writing for Rockin'On Japan, Fumiaki Amano compared "Shukufuku" that "may be as close as possible to what lies between Ayase and Ikura", likening "Yoasobi's theme song".^[23]
