Jang Jun-hwan, writing for IZM, praised the album, describing it as "an indicator of Ive's cautiousness, the secret to their longevity". Jang noted that the album carefully follows trends to add to their "familiar maximalist pop", such as the metallic synth in "Accendio" and the drums and bass in "Blue Heart".[8]
