Lyrics and composition
"We wrote ["Maniac"] thinking that within this normality, show yourself off as much as you want — show yourself to the world better."

Critical reception
Teen Vogue's Crystal Bell compared "Maniac" as "proof enough that it doesn't matter which way Stray Kids decide to turn" if Oddinary exists at the crossroads. She praised the group "can continue to evolve their sound while also staying true to themselves as artists." NME critic, Tássia Assis, admired that "how much Stray Kids refined their talents for this comeback, successfully combining their abrasive energy with more tempered tones." Yemi from Idology said that the song "shows a relatively flexible mood compared to previous works that were consistent with divergence, and it was impressive that the group's unique strong energy was still there, but that they had enough room to try to make rapid adjustments." Rolling Stone ranked "Maniac" number 56 on its list of the Best Songs of 2022. Other publications who ranked it amongst the best K-pop songs of 2022 include Billboard (5th), CNN Philippines Life (5th), The Korea Herald (2nd), NME (24th), and Teen Vogue (unranked).

Music video
An accompanying music video for "Maniac was uploaded on March 18, in conjunction with the Oddinary release. Directed by Bang Jae-yeob, the music video oscillates between two worlds, depicting the members exploring various locations of a deserted town in an alternate dimension, and doing random things, such as playing on the subway or cleaning up the diner, and the upside-down version of the town. It also shows a giant, graffitied brain, before being transported back to the real world at the end, where the members hold part-time jobs and hang out. Rolling Stone India's Divyansha Dongre compares the two worlds as "Marvel's multiverse meets the Stranger Things' upside-down".
