She barely sang it live, finally considered the B Side as the A Side of the single, squiz the PV in her studio album and even not include it in her ballads collection.

I also think No Regret is the song she didn’t like in her discography. Only difference from Alive is that the song was successful so she performed it more often.

Why she doesn't like No Regret? It was the first song I've ever heard from her...

I remember reading Avex pushed her to release No Regret in the 12 singles (and as a non limited one) because of the anime tie-up. It was an easy choice to bring commercial success.
Although she performed it in TV shows, she only performed the song in her live tour as parts of medley. Popular songs within her audience are not necessary songs she likes, especially at her peak when she had less control over her career.
