Ordered 2 releases via 5music

ayaka - 30 y/o album (2 CDs + DVD) with poster giveaway
Hirai Ken - half of me single (CD + DVD)

Both Taiwan press

Waiting for 5music to list Yamapi's UNLEASHED album , have a feeling Sony Taiwan would make CD only and not the other 2 CD + DVD versions , we'll see

Requested my friend to help me buy AKIHIDE Omoide Shikake no Calendar 2019 online

Also I'll be buying the spare copies of DAIGO's Deing from my friend after she bought somemore in order to take a 2nd photo with DAIGO during last Sat's release event in Kanagawa x)

Today is the last day of AKIHIDE “SOLO” LIVE NAKED MOON -Hadaka no Tsuki- and my middleman went down to Sapporo KRAPS HALL to help me buy 2 Hotel Room Keyholders which have this design for today's concert

https://i.postimg.cc/hjQT4XSX/goods-08-11.jpg

My middleman laments that he was the only male queuing up on my behalf to buy AKIHIDE's goods , haha

If I could , I would love to buy more Hotel Room Keyholders but each person only can buy a maximum of 2 and it's the only item that Being imposed a buying restriction so :x

Ordered via 5music

Yamashita Tomohisa - UNLEASHED (CD + DVD FEEL version)
Yamashita Tomohisa - UNLEASHED (CD + DVD LOVE version)

Both Taiwan press

Has been so long since Yamapi's release get a Taiwan press , studio album wise . Quite annoyed Warner Japan didn't gave Warner Taiwan license to make Yamapi's albums , besides his best album :eviltongu

Sony Taiwan is still the best

My Tokyo based friend helped a Twitter user I know from Saudi Arabia to order a copy of L’Arc-en-Ciel「LIVE 2018 L’ArChristmas」pamphlet online

The Twitter user I know said she want my friend's help to buy whatever L’ArChristmas gachagacha smartphone rings that sellers put out online for sale but I personally think the smartphone rings designs look plain

And the fact that the sellers are selling the L’ArChristmas gachagacha smartphone rings for almost 5 to 6 times the cost of what it's worth , it's just :no

But I can understand why this happens cos for gachagacha , you don't know what you will get from the machine & each person is only allowed to do it 4 times so :s

Requested Xianghua to help me buy Matsushita Yuya's King Ü-Wingy song via iTunes

Also , I made my 1st Jpop release of 2019 from 5music

KinKi Kids - Aitai,Aitai,Aenai. single (CD + DVD A & B)

Both Taiwan press & avex Taiwan has included the same clearfile bonus item that Japan gave :heart

I also requested my friend to help me get some rare BREAKERZ stuff over the last few days online & same as before , I cannot wait to get them soon

Requested Xianghua to help me buy Saito Kazuyoshi's Are song via iTunes

Ordered these on Sunday night/Monday morning:

• Leo Ieiri - Kono Sekai de (CD+DVD and 2CD limited editions; the latter is B-side best album!)
• Mai Shiraishi - Paspport photobook (overall order delayed until this gets another reprint, which should come early next month, but hey, it's still printing after two years since initial release!)
• Erika Ikuta - Intermission photobook (like Maiyan, Ikuchan's part of Nogizaka46 - and, yes, the photos were taken from the same guy who did Maiyan's photobook that I mentioned above - Kazutaka Nakamura - and he's the same guy who did some Ayu photoshoots as well, as well as an Ayaka single (Kotonoha), at least...)

• Rie Kitahara - Soshite (last year, ex-NGT48/AKB48; this one from Kojiro Hosoi, though)

Sorry for 'double-posting', but made another order even before the one above hasn't been shipped yet...but just ordered these tonight (Tuesday night):

• Yanawaraba - Urizun no Uta (first release in over three years!)
• SCANDAL HARUNA - SOMEWHERE photobook (order cancelled)

I've got Hikki's "Face My Fears" pre-ordered, so should get that next week. Provided Amazon.jp ships it on time.

Edit, 18/01
Pre-ordered it on iTunes after I posted this earlier. Just put it on my phone a few minutes ago after it became available.

Helped Earth_maiden to order these 2 best albums of Aimer via 5music

- BEST SELECTION "blanc"
- BEST SELECTION "noir"

Both Taiwan press , CD + DVD

Pre-ordered Face My Fears (analog/vinyl ver.) from Amazon(JP).

Decided to cancel the SCANDAL HARUNA photobook earlier this evening.

Ordered on HMV

Aoyama Thelma - In This Place~Futari no Kizuna single
Hilcrhyme - Hilcrhyme album

Both CD + DVD limited versions

And my sister is heading back Japan next month (probably in May & June as well lmao) so in due time I will tell her to help me get NEWS's new album WORLDISTA

Bought these 2 songs from Recochoku

FLOWER FLOWER - Tsuki -band acoustic ver.-
SPYAIR - B-THE ONE

Requested Xianghua to help me buy Tsuruno Takeshi & DAIGO's Hikari no Kizuna duet via iTunes

Ordered Kisumai's FREE HUGS! album (CD only) via CDJapan earlier on

I seldom order via CDJapan and let alone so early as FREE HUGS! will not be out until April but I have CDJapan points that expire today so why not ? x)

Let alone if I order FREE HUGS! via HMV Japan , I will not get any further discount unlike the 2 CD + DVDs which in this case I'm not willing to buy either

Ordered Matsushita Yuya's comeback solo album BLACK NEVERLAND (CD + DVD limited edition) via HMV Japan

I also renewed my annual BREAKERZ fanclub membership as well

Requested my friend to buy 3 more TEAM BREAKERZ 10th Anniversary Thanks ☆ Raw Photoset(s) via BREAKERZ's fanclub site

I wasn't planning to buy them but once they're gone , Musing will not restock again

I just hope for the random de o Tanoshimi shots , I will get the ones I haven't obtain yet :s

Purchased BREAKERZ's Atarashii Sekai e Atarashii Jidai e ~Reiwa Version~ online , their last release before the Heisei concludes

Took a bit of patience, but I am pre-ordering every edition of Hey! Say! JUMP's upcoming single (Lucky-Unlucky/Oh! my darling) and 'single DVD' (Ai Dake ga Subete -What do you want?-) coming out next week and the week after, respectively! Was able to get all editions of next week's single in my first pre-order but only able to get the regular edition of the single DVD at first, since the other two editions were out of stock. But one by one, I got a hang on the Mitazono version of the single DVD, and just today, the JUMPremium BOX version as well!

However, the JUMPremium BOX of the DVD single is being shipped out separately, as I was unable to add to the existing pre-order as I used to (I was able to do so for the Mitazono version).

My sister & her friend are going to attend ARASHI Anniversary Tour 5x20 today at Sapporo Dome

Both of them went to buy the concert goods early yesterday & for me , my sister helped me to buy these goods on my behalf :

- ARASHI Anniversary Tour 5x20 komono ire (accessory pouch)
- ARASHI Anniversary Tour 5x20 luggage tag
- ARASHI Anniversary Tour 5x20 mini tote bag
- ARASHI Anniversary Tour 5x20 pouch
- ARASHI Anniversary Tour 5x20 strap

At 1st I wanted to buy the venue gentei charm but I don't like the 2nd design as it's downright ugly , I prefer the 1st design a lot more

And also I thought of buying the shopping bag but decided not to . In the end my sister bought it but now she said she will give it to me as it's just too big

Ironically my sister didn't want to buy the mini tote bag for herself but after she saw the physical item , she's considering to get it for herself as well ahahaha :p

Well there's still time before today's concert starts so x)

Lastly , GRANRODEO's new album FAB LOVE is out this week and my sister went to Animate Sapporo to help me buy it as well whee

Purchased these songs digitally with friends's help

flumpool - HELP 3 B-sides
GLAY - Gengou
Hirai Ken - Ite mo Tatte mo

Ordered via CDJapan

Hilcrhyme - SUN ~Remake Best 1~ remake album

Also looks like CDJapan has increased their shipping charges . Their Airmail charges used to be 650 Yen & now it's 770 Yen -_-

Pre-ordered Arashi's 5x20 All the BEST!! album last night. Limited edition 1, very impressed with the packaging. But have to wait for the second batch (in August) because the first batch was sold out!

Ordered all 3 versions of KAT-TUN's Kame debut solo single Rain via 5music Taiwan

- CD only
- CD + 2 DVDs A
- CD + DVD B

No idea why took Kame so long to put out solo material but better late than never

Kame should put out a solo album next , I would buy all versions again without giving any 2nd thoughts as out of all the Johnnys I like , he's the only 1 that I've liked the longest up to now

And I love the packaging of Rain CD + 2 DVDs A and here I thought KAT-TUN's Ask Yourself CD + DVD packaging was big :O

Requested my friend to buy via Musing

- AKIHIDE Premium Night Show 2019 -Gekko no Ryodan- charity pin badge
- AKIHIDE Premium Night Show 2019 -Gekko no Ryodan- clearfile set
- AKIHIDE Premium Night Show 2019 -Gekko no Ryodan- glass marker (Amber)
- AKIHIDE Premium Night Show 2019 -Gekko no Ryodan- glass marker (Lapis Lazuli)
- AKIHIDE Premium Night Show 2019 -Gekko no Ryodan- glass marker (RAIN STORY)
- AKIHIDE Premium Night Show 2019 -Gekko no Ryodan- glass marker (Tsuki to Hoshi no Caravan)
- AKIHIDE Premium Night Show 2019 -Gekko no Ryodan- glass marker (Furusato)

Frankly I'm surprised all except for 1 Glass Marker are available for online purchase cos I had a feeling that would be the most sought after item as all 6 designs were created by AKIHIDE himself

Anyway in a way that's good cos I really like all the Glass Marker designs AKIHIDE created

And so odd that Musing has not listed any leftover BREAKERZ LIVE 2019 ~Heisei Saigo no DAIGO's BIRTHDAY~ & BREAKERZ LIVE 2019 ~Kin Niku Houkai Matsuri SHINPEI's BIRTHDAY~ concert goods for online order o_O

Maybe Musing is waiting until next month ? :confused

A while back I pre-ordered Hey! Say! JUMP's latest single... (I pre-ordered all versions as soon as possible to prevent the 'sellout regret' and added it to my pending Arashi best album order, which was on its second batch)

And just now, though being delivered separately because it will be released in September, I'm also pre-ordering Arashi's new, Rugby World Cup tie-in single as well... (both versions with Blu-ray instead of DVD, yay Blu-ray! Had to also use up my expiring CD Japan points as well!)

Is it just me, or why am I jumping on the Arashi CD ordering bandwagon this late given the impending hiatus at the end of 2020...?

^ You're a person of strange & weird contradictions

On 1 hand you claim you're a total clueless Johnny's 'fan' for the last decade & here you're ordering all versions of their releases ?

Requested my friend to buy these leftover BREAKERZ 12th anniversary concert Shakunetsu no REAL SUMMER PARTY 2019 goods online

- Shakunetsu no REAL SUMMER PARTY 2019 clear pouch
- Shakunetsu no REAL SUMMER PARTY 2019 gachagacha keychain (concert logo)
- Shakunetsu no REAL SUMMER PARTY 2019 uchiwa

My friend arrived late at Kanagawa's OTODAMA SEA STUDIO last Sun so as a result she was unable to buy any of the goods on my behalf :s

On a side note I hope DAIGO will make a full recovery after that scary incident that happened last Sun that gave everyone a terrible scare including my friend who attended the concert

After being in BREAKERZ's fandom for so long , that's the last thing I would expect anything like this would happen x_x

Requested someone to help me buy AKi's Monolith digitally via iTunes

Also BREAKERZ is going to start their 9 Yamino ni Mau Aoi Tori release events this weekend & of course my friend will attend x)

My friend said she's going to take a photo with BREAKERZ while I told her to request the guys to sign something on my behalf cos they literally will sign anything except for some items haha

For now my friend said she's only going to take 1 photo with BREAKERZ but that might change once she attend the release event so hahahaha :p

Pre-ordering Arashi's 5×20 All the BEST!! CLIPS 1999-2019 on Blu-ray.

My friend last night purchased BREAKERZ's debut single for me via Amazon Japan & she already received it this morning :O

I have all of BREAKERZ's singles in all versions but this time round I asked my friend to buy another copy of their debut single as I want the guys to sign it next Mon when my friend attends their release event for Yamino ni Mau Aoi Tori

I figure that will be meaningful as if not for SUMMER PARTY , I would have never imagine to stay in their fandom for so long

I told my friend last night if she plan to take more photos with BREAKERZ next Mon , I will buy the extra copies of Yamino ni Mau Aoi Tori from her x)

Ordered via 5music

ARASHI - 5x20 All the BEST!! 1999-2019 (4 CDs + DVD A , Taiwan press)

avex Taiwan will release all 3 versions of 5x20 All the BEST!! 1999-2019 on 30th Aug

For now only the 4 CDs + DVD A version is available for preorder via 5music

Normally I will wait until the last minute but this time round I wasn't going to do that

And I doubt 5music will combine the other versions with the 4 CDs + DVD A due to the awesome packaging of the best album

It's overall still cheaper for me to buy Taiwan press even though I have to wait long but I don't mind

That's why when J&A announced they were planning to release a 2nd batch of 5x20 All the BEST!! 1999-2019 , I didn't bother to fight with other fans online cos I know avex Taiwan will make it

And I see no reason for avex Taiwan not to make any of ARASHI releases as there's still high demand of their releases outisde of Japan

It's also the same thing that I don't see any point to order the Japan press of 5×20 All the BEST!! CLIPS 1999-2019 DVD either

Requested someone to help me buy JASMINE's latest 2 new songs digitally via iTunes

Requested my friend to buy another copy of BREAKERZ's Yamiyo ni Mau Aoi Tori & this time round it's via their fanclub site as I want the postcard bonus item

It's quite hilarious that the guys put a comedic spin on the fanclub bonus items of their releases and this's the 3rd time it has happened , xD

Wouldn't be long before Yamiyo ni Mau Aoi Tori gets released

Not sure if I will buy more copies of Yamiyo ni Mau Aoi Tori though I already bought more than the standard 3 versions

That might change or not when next week rolls by x)

Ordered via CDJapan

Hilcrhyme Feat HY's Nakasone Izumi - Jijitsu Ai single (CD + DVD limited version)

So happens that I have quite a lot of CDJapan points that's going to expire next month so I thought why not as it's better than letting them expire

Also hard to believe it took Hilcrhyme so long to put a duet out as a single but better late than never

Pre-ordering Hey! Say! JUMP's new album. Going to combine with my Arashi BD order (this means I'll be getting it a couple of weeks late).

My friend attended BREAKERZ's last minute announced Yamiyo ni Mau Aoi Tori release event last Tue at Tokyo's SHIBUYA TSUTAYA 2nd floor event space

And I told my friend to preorder another copy of Yamiyo ni Mau Aoi Tori as I wanted to get the bookmark bonus item

Seeing that this Wed at last Yamiyo ni Mau Aoi Tori will get released & they will do another release event at Tokyo's Odaiba Venus Fort 2nd Floor Kyoukai Hiroba , I think my friend will be going again x)

Even though my friend already took a 4 shot photo with BREAKERZ , she probably want to do that again this Wed , LOL

And if so I probably will ask my friend to request BREAKERZ for another autograph 8D

I'm surprised my friend is not planning to get BREAKERZ to pet her head and/or record a message for her :roflmao :roflmao :roflmao

My friend yesterday attended BREAKERZ's last 2 Yamiyo ni Mau Aoi Tori release events held in the Kanto area & she helped me buy 2 more CD only copies of their single x)

I thought I myself bought a lot of copies but my friend bought x2 if not x3 of the amount I bought :dead2

Also ordered these albums via 5music Taiwan

-- KAT-TUN - IGNITE (CD + DVD A)
-- KAT-TUN - IGNITE (CD + DVD B)

Purchase of both CD + DVDs of IGNITE includes the same bonus item that JStorm gave ie. an IGNITE BURN-D band

-- SID - Shonin Yokkyu (CD + Photobook)

All Taiwan press

Seems like this year's recurring theme for me is listening to albums without any singles preceding them

Cos that happened for B'z and now KAT-TUN + SID

Just placed an order on CDJapan:

- Do As Infinity - Do As Infinity (CD only)
- FOLKS - Blue & Yellow
- Suiyoubi no Campanella - Zipang
- Suiyoubi no Campanella - SUPERMAN

Requested someone to help me buy Saito Kazuyoshi's latest new song Chiisana Yoru digitally via iTunes

Paid Xianghua for helping me to buy some KODA KUMI LIVE TOUR 2019 re(LIVE) goods when she attended both Black Cherry & JAPONESQUE concerts at Fukuoka Sun Palace Hall on Sun

- Bottle & Kloop bottle cap
- Pass (card version)
- Pass (key version)

Requested someone to help me buy some songs digitally via iTunes

Saito Kazuyoshi - Itsumo no Fuukei
Wakeshima Kanon - odd sting & intrigue EP

Requested someone to help me buy 2 songs digitally via iTunes

Atae Shinjiro (AAA) × Aoyama Thelma - Suki Suki Suki
Shimizu Shota - Breathe Again

I don't know why track 2 from Wakeshima Kanon's odd sting & intrigue EP is corrupted , I will ask my middleman to help me buy the song via Recochoku :s

My friend helped me to purchase a 2nd hand copy of Hilcrhyme's Koi no Honou single CD + DVD version via Mercari

Hilcrhyme released 2 singles in 2017 & now their 2017 prior releases on everything are so hard to obtain cos none of the legit websites such as Amazon Japan , CDJapan , HMV Japan & etc sell them online and that applies to both physical + digital

I'm sure if not for that horrific scandal that almost derailed Hilcrhyme , this will not have happened & fans like myself were blindsided and took things for granted

I have all of Hilcrhyme's studio albums & their 3 PVs releases and I had no idea obtaining the 2 singles they released in 2017 is so sought after and hard to get hold of :x

And this's terrible on my part but only now then I realise how expensive the CD + DVD version of Koi no Honou is , face value wise & it's cos of the DVD footages :s

Requested someone to help me buy 2 songs digitally via iTunes

ARASHI - Turning Up
JASMINE Feat 5lack - FALLIN'

Never thought I see the day that Johnnys' material gets released digitally legally for sale :O

Requested someone to help me buy the B-side songs from Saito Kazuyoshi's latest single Itsumo no Fuukei digitally via iTunes

Requested someone to help me buy the 4 new songs from JASMINE's 1st mini album JASMINE2.0 EP digitally via iTunes

My middleman helped me to buy these songs via Recochoku

AKi - SCREAM

Aoyama Thelma - 1LDK

Aoyama Thelma - Ikiteru Dake de Gohobi

Also I thought I might be able to buy the Taiwan presses of ARASHI's 5×20 All the BEST!! CLIPS 1999-2019 DVD & Hey ! Say ! JUMP's PARADE album this week but avex Taiwan unexpectedly delay both releases until year end o_O

Oh well , this means I'll be able to focus in buying BREAKERZ × Detective Conan COLLABORATION BEST and probably BREAKERZ LIVE 2019 ANIME SONG COLLABORATION concert goods lmao

Likewise with ordering AKIHIDE 2020 CALENDER too , xD

Just recently bought the oldest of Sayuri Sugawara releases (she currently plays under THE SxPLAY right now), spanning from 2009 to March 2012. (I own CDs from November 2012 onwards.)

My friend helped me to order AKIHIDE 2020 CALENDAR online

Also my friends will be attending both Hey! Say! JUMP LIVE TOUR 2019 - 2020 PARADE & KinKi Kids Concert Tour 2019-2020 ThanKs 2 YOU

I thought of asking my friends to help me buy concert goods from Hey! Say! JUMP LIVE TOUR 2019 - 2020 PARADE but nothing really appealed to me

Not sure for KinKi Kids Concert Tour 2019-2020 ThanKs 2 YOU yet :3

My middleman helped me to buy the 2 B-side songs from Hirai Ken's new single #302 via Recochoku

Ordered via 5music

ARASHI - BRAVE single (CD + DVD)

5×20 All the BEST!! CLIPS 1999-2019 (3 DVDs limited version)

Both Taiwan press

My friend last night also helped me to order 2 AKIHIDE “SOLO” LIVE 2019 NAKED MOON2 -Hoshioi no Shoujo- hotel room keyholders via Musing

Having to fight with other AKIHIDE fans online last night over leftover keyholder concert goods is so O_o

Ordered via 5music

Hey! Say! JUMP - PARADE album , Taiwan press both CD + DVD versions

My friend will be attending the release event for BREAKERZ × Detective Conan COLLABORATION BEST and I'm kinda dreading to find out how many copies she will buy at the event in due time xD

Ordered via 5music

KinKi Kids - Hikari no Kehai single , Taiwan press CD + DVD A & CD + DVD B versions

avex Taiwan has also kept the clearfile bonus item giveaway intact just like the Japan press

And on that note it's my last purchase via 5music for 2019

Ordered these 2 albums via HMV Japan

AKIHIDE - Hoshikai no Shounen (2 CDs limited version)
Koda Kumi - re(CORD) (CD + DVD)

CDJapan gave me points as this month is my birthday month but ironically after doing my sums , HMV Japan is still cheaper overall

Not so surprised cos all the while I always prefer ordering from HMV Japan as compared to CDJapan

My friend helped me to purchase flumpool's Subarashiki Uso song via iTunes USA

From iTunes:
Morning Musume. '20 - KOKORO&KARADA / LOVEpedia / Ningen Kankei No way way


Going pretty much mostly digital now because it's getting too bothersome to pack everything up when we move.

My friend helped me to purchase ARASHI's Turning Up (R3HAB Remix) song via iTunes USA

Ordered with my friend's help

Mercari :

BREAKERZ LIVE 2019 ANIME SONG COLLABORATION gachagacha keychain (1 AKIHIDE Chibi)

Musing :

AKIHIDE “SOLO” LIVE 2019 NAKED MOON2 -Hoshioi no Shoujo- hotel room keyholder 2 (04.11 design | Osaka Banana Hall)

AKIHIDE LIVE TOUR 2020 -Hoshikai no Shounen-

Charity pin badge
Postcard set

AKIHIDE MUSIC THEATER -Hoshi no Kaeru Basho-

PICK TOUR
Postcard set

So surprised Musing still has leftover stock for the AKIHIDE MUSIC THEATER -Hoshi no Kaeru Basho- PICK TOUR cos I know it was sold out at last Tue's HULIC HALL Tokyo

At least my friend was able to buy it for me cos I'm sure sooner or later the PICK TOUR will be sold out

My friend helped me to purchase GLAY's Into the Wild song via iTunes USA

My friend managed to get hold of Hilcrhyme's Namida no Tane, Shiawase no Hana CD + DVD version online at a reasonable cost

When Hilcrhyme was caught in a drugs scandal 3 years back , that forced Universal to pull off all their releases online and also in physical stores which was so horrific

Hilcrhyme all the while cannot sell well and Koi no Honou + Namida no Tane, Shiawase no Hana were the last 2 singles Universal released prior to the drugs scandal

I waited for Namida no Tane, Shiawase no Hana to be sold reasonably cos I've seen people selling it for 5,000 Yen & above and people still buy it o_O

My friend helped me to order BREAKERZ LIVE 2020 ~Reiwa Saisho no DAIGO's BIRTHDAY~ D.A.S photoset via Musing & she also order 1 photoset for herself

Considering my friend rarely buy BREAKERZ goods for herself that's a 1st

Now I'm hoping to get any good random shot that comes with the D.A.S photoset

Just ordered via 5music

NEWS - STORY album , Taiwan press CD + DVD B version

I have somemore other albums to buy but for now I have no idea if Taiwan presses will be made for them

If not then I will get Japan press

My friend helped me to purchase JASMINE's Atashi no Make song via iTunes USA

My middleman helped me to purchase Shota Shimizu's 416 song via Recochoku

Ordered these 2 albums via CDJapan

FLOWER FLOWER - Target (CD Only)
Kis-My-Ft2 - To-y2 (2 CDs)

I normally would use HMV Japan but so happens that HMV Japan ain't giving further discounts for both albums , version wise but they're if I get the limited versions

Which this time round I'm not

My friend earlier on helped me to order BREAKERZ LIVE 2020 ~Chou Kin Niku Houkai Matsuri SHINPEI's BIRTHDAY~ photoset A & B via Musing

My middleman helped me to purchase BREAKERZ's cover of GRANRODEO's The Other self via Recochoku

Frankly I was so sceptical cos I was like meh when I found out the guys decided to cover The Other self cos GRANRODEO has so many other great songs in their discography

But BREAKERZ's rendition is very different from the original , in a good way so no complaints on that x)

Just ordered via 5music

flumpool - Real album , Special Taiwan press CD only version

I almost ordered Japan press then I found out Taiwan has made a special version of Real which save me quite a fair bit of $

My friend helped me to purchase AKi's Collapsing song via iTunes USA

Still had Recochoku point card balance, bought a couple of new Yanawaraba digital-only songs.

This took a bit of a waiting, especially when I had CDJapan points that were about to expire, but:

It's finally available for pre-order.

Requested my middleman to help me buy a 2nd hand copy of MTV UNPLUGGED KEN HIRAI DVD which was sold at a really dirt cheap price online

I also asked my middleman to get something for my sister on my behalf cos her birthday is in 2 weeks' time ;)

Ordered via CDJapan

KinKi Kids - KANZAI BOYA single (CD + DVD)

I thought of getting Taiwan press but online it states KANZAI BOYA will not be made available until year end ? o_O :dead2

Anyway might as well cos I have a lot of CDJapan points so I decided to go for it

Took a slight wait for CDJapan to list it but just ordered the CD-only and CD+Blu-ray bundle. Also had some rewards points expiring, took advantage of it.

My middleman today helped me to order some Ayu TROUBLE TOUR 2020 A Saigo no Trouble goods via mu-mo

I realised that the last time I bought Ayu's concert goods was COUNTDOWN LIVE 2014-2015 A Cirque de Minuit ~Mayonaka no Circus which I bought them myself personally at Yoyogi *sheepishly*

Yeah I know it's so terrible haha but blame that on BREAKERZ & their respective solo career goods for that :p

My friend helped me to purchase songs from AKi's Collapsed Land album via iTunes USA

My friend earlier on helped me to order these BREAKERZ LIVE 2020 ~AKIHIDE's BIRTHDAY~ items via Musing :

- photoset A
- photoset B

And also a medium sized T-shirt which another person in BREAKERZ's fandom also wants x)

I originally wanted to wait until this weekend to ask my friend for help but after being in BREAKERZ's fandom for so long , 1 thing I know is anything AKIHIDE related , the items bearing his mark will always tend to be in much more hotter demand than the other 2

Oops sorry DAIGO no offence but it's the truth :p

And yup as expected , the medium sized T-shirt has already sold out :roflmao

My friend helped me to purchase songs from Wakeshima Kanon's poolside single via iTunes USA

My friend helped me to purchase Saito Kazuyoshi's latest digital released song Jun Pu via iTunes USA

waiting on.. have been looking for these.. for so long
Gackt - White Lovers (CD+DVD)
Gackt - Episode 0 (CD+DVD)
Gackt - Hakuro (CD+DVD)

My friend last night ordered hers & my copies of the CD + 3 DVDs fanclub version of BREAKERZ's new single BARABARA / LOVE STAGE

¥18,800 a pop but for what Being has included & stuffed to the brim in the fanclub version , $ well spent to both of us ;D

Ordered via CDJapan

-- GRANRODEO Tribute Album "RODEO FREAK"
-- Twenty★Twenty - smile charity single CD + DVD limited pressing

If I could , I rather order via HMV Japan as I've been ordering via their website for more than a decade

But alas HMV Japan temporarily suspended international mail orders due to COVID-19 so :s

My friend helped me to purchase via iTunes USA

GLAY - G4･2020
Saito Kazuyoshi - Isshona Futari

My friend helped me to purchase songs from JASMINE's new mini album M via iTunes USA

My friend helped me & my other friend ordered these BREAKERZ ONLINE LIVE 2020 -ONE NIGHT LOVE STAGE- goods earlier on :

- BARABARA Acrylic Keyholder Set
- LOVE STAGE Acrylic Stand Set x2

My friend ordered a LOVE STAGE Acrylic Stand Set for herself as this's the 1st time the guys at last decided to make an acrylic stand , goods wise

The fact that for now only fanclub members are allowed to order BREAKERZ ONLINE LIVE 2020 -ONE NIGHT LOVE STAGE- goods , I guess Being is really pushing more emphasis on the importance of their fanclub , a lot more than ever before

And no surprises on that since their fanclub will get a major overhaul next year & I'm so pleased for them

My friend helped me to order these BREAKERZ ONLINE LIVE 2020 -ONE NIGHT LOVE STAGE- goods earlier on :

- BARABARA photoset
- LOVE STAGE photoset

So much for not spending further more $ on the guys ~_~ xD

- AKIHIDE "SOLO" LIVE NAKED MOON -Hadaka no Tsuki- hotel room keyholder (23.12 design | Tokyo's Nihonbashi Mitsui Hall)

Last night via 5music :

- Nakashima Mika - JOKER album (CD + DVD) with external bonus item -- poster

I seldom order via CDJapan & I only do that if I have no choice

So happens that HMV Japan is not giving any special members discount for the 2 CDs limited version of AKIHIDE's LOOP WORLD album either

And up to now I still don't know if HMV Japan has resumed overseas orders too :s

My friend helped me to purchase songs from JASMINE's new mini album S via iTunes USA

My friend today helped me to purchase AKIHIDE's LOOP WORLD song via iTunes USA

While my other friend helped me & another friend of ours in ordering 1 copy each of AKIHIDE Calendar 2021 via Musing , xD

My friend ordered for me on my behalf a few days ago via Musing

- AKIHIDE 2021 calendar

Last night :

AKIHIDE's 1st online tour LOOP WORLD + AKIHIDE SPECIAL LIVE X'mas LOOP WORLD concert goods

- LOOP WORLD Acrylic Diorama Set
- LOOP WORLD Postcard Set A
- LOOP WORLD Postcard Set B

My friend today helped me to purchase 2 songs via iTunes USA

AKIHIDE - Jukai
YOUYA - Ghost

Ordered earlier on via 5music :

- ARASHI - This is ARASHI album (2 CDs + DVD)

I really hope Universal Taiwan will make Fukuyama Masaharu-san's AKIRA album cos I'm not willing to spend so much on so many versions of his new album o_O

Then again AKIRA is marketed as his 30th anniversary album so I'm not surprised he wants to go big or go home on this

Ordered via HMV Japan

Fukuyama Masaharu - AKIRA album (CD + 2 DVDs ALL SINGLE LIVE limited edition)

Taiwan will release AKIRA year end but the version Universal has made is not the version I want :s

And CDJapan has sold out the CD + 2 DVDs ALL SINGLE LIVE limited edition too D:

The only good thing is HMV Japan gave me a really big discount for AKIRA and after that's said & done , the overall cost I have to pay is even less than what the album is worth

My friend helped me to purchase Saito Kazuyoshi's new song 2020 DIARY via iTunes USA

My friend helped me to purchase these 2 songs via iTunes USA on Thurs

ayaka - Xmas Santa
flumpool - Daijoubu

1st order of 2021 , well my friend ordered on my behalf via Musing

BREAKERZ - I love my daughter single (2 CDs + 2 DVDs fanclub version) ; group cover version

If $ is no issue , I of course would love to order all 4 versions that have 4 different covers

But paying almost 60,000 Yen in total for all 4 versions is just o_O , somemore the contents are the same for all

If the contents are different then I do not mind , somewhat LOL

And as expected my friend ordered the DAIGO solo cover version for herself xD while for our mutual friend , she wanted AKIHIDE solo cover version haha

Poor SHINPEI been left out again -_-
