Promotion


Launching of "Skirt, Hirari" was held at the off-theater live promoting event at Akihabara UDX with some 1,500 attendees on June 4, 2006, 3 days prior the release date. During this event, all AKB48 members, 20 members of Team A and 17 members of Team K, performed on the stage together first time,[3] although "Skirt, Hirari" itself was recorded with Team A members only.

They made their first appearances on TV music programs to perform as a group of singers, such as "Music Station", "Music Fighter", etc. on June 9, two days after the release of CD.[2]

The song was used as the theme song of the "Odaiba Gakuen 2006 (Bunkasai)" (お台場学園2006〜文化祭〜, Odaiba School 2006 (School Festival)), series of summer event held by Fuji Television. The B-side "Aozora no soba ni ite" was used as the ending theme song for the variety show Mitake Uranai.

Each "Shokai Genteiban" (初回限定版, The first edition) CD included a postcard, which was for a lucky draw with following awards.[4]

'Because of some chance mischief, I happened to pass you My heart nearly stopped And I purposely pretended to ignore you as I walked by How stupid am I? When I like you so much I fall into a pit of self-hate Alone in the crowd at the station'[5]


Reception


The single charted 6 weeks in the top 200 with the highest rank at #13,[6] but sold 20,609 copies, which was about a half of their debut single, "Sakura no Hanabiratachi".[2]
