Haha, I think some people complained about those scans and wanted better scans because "they had a rip in the middle of them" or something. OF COURSE THEY DID. There's practically no way to scan that book well without completely ruining the binding, and I forgot to microwave the book, so the glue ended up sticking. I checked my mint/intact version of the book and I was like "I can't even open this photobook that wide, wtf?!"

And as for these translations, I can read them just fine... usually the Chinese ViVi just puts Chinese translations over an airbrushed/non-written-on template, but I think it might be better to keep it there. It's already enough work translating as it is....

Speaking of the new issue, I've actually walked into that SPARK store. It was pretty weird, but I saw photos of Ayu inside the store, and I didn't even know that was a place regularly visited by Ayu until after I visited, haha.
