Nogizaka46, a Japanese idol girl group was formed on August 21, 2011, labelling as an "official rival of AKB48",[1] and debuted on February 22, 2012, with the single "Guruguru Curtain".[2] Until October 2021, they released four studio albums, one compilation album, and twenty eight singles, mostly peaked atop Japan Oricon Albums Chart and Singles Chart.[3] The group marked their career success with concluding their summer national concert tour in 2017 at Tokyo Dome, participating NHK Kōhaku Uta Gassen for six consecutive years since 2015, and winning the grand prize from Japan Record Awards with their singles "Influencer" (2017) and "Synchronicity" (2018) for two consecutive years.[4]

The album's title Time Flies means "time passes surprisingly quickly",[5] which is a "perfect word" to describe 10-year period of the group.[4] On October 26, Erika Ikuta, a first generation member announced to graduate from the group on December 31 on her official blog. She said the greatest hits album is her last record that will appear.[6] Later, Ikuta serves as a center position of the lead single "Saigo no Tight Hug".[7] On November 18, Mai Shinuchi, a second generation member, announced graduation from the group in late January 2022 on her radio show Nogizaka46's All Night Nippon. She revealed her graduation song, titled "Anata kara no Sotsugyō" for the first time on the radio show. The song will be included on Time Flies.[8]
