Takanori Nishikawa his name was a play on Nishikawa's pseudonym with that band (Haine). [Heine's first name is written as in katakana.] The surnames of both Nishikawa and Westenfluss mean "west river" in Japanese (西川) and German (Westenfluß), respectively. "Ignited"'s title is closely similar to the mobile suit (GOUF Ignited) that Nishikawa's "GSD" character piloted. "Vertical infinity" was released on January 26, 2005 by Epic and exactly six months later by Tofu Records. The infinity symbol (∞), when facing vertically or turned sideways, looks like the number 8. That is also the number of original studio albums Nishikawa has released to date
Recycling symbol (U+2678), ♹ (U+2679), and ♺ (U+267A). Recycling codes extend these numbers above 7 to include various non-plastic materials, including metals, glass, paper, and batteries of various types. ♾, an infinity sign (∞) inside a circle, represents the permanent paper symbol, used in packaging and publishing to signify the use of durable acid-free paper. In some ways, this logo expresses the "opposite" intention from the recycle logo, in that the acid-free paper is intended to last indefinitely, rather than being recycled. Nevertheless, acid-free paper does not usually contain toxic materials (although certain inks do), so it is easily recycled or composted.
