Trivia

  • PLUS's catalogue number's digits add up to 14 (3+3+8) in the same way as SIGN (3+2+9). This could imply that both SIGN and PLUS are considered to be the 14th album, or that they are part of the same project.
  • In one of the Twitch AMAs, Sean remarked that PLUS should've been an EP with a few tracks removed, but that they "got greedy" and made it an album. [5]
    • When asked which tracks should've been removed, he stated "the mellow synth ones" (likely referring to "lux 106 mod", "ii.pre esc" and "esle 0"). [6]
  • As with SIGN the Japanese CD cover is minimally different compared to other versions. In PLUS's case the background has been darkened slightly and the yellow parts have been recolored green. [7]
