What album did she start releasing limited editions of?

I know RAINBOW has a first press, but the only bonus is a code that doesn't work anymore, for access to some website where you could preview RAINBOW (song) in the past.
So apart from that...
MY STORY: there are Limited [CD+DVD] releases with alternate covers. Just search eBay, anything that doesn't have the cover like it shows on her official website, is limited. (like her laying on the bed or something).
(miss)understood: First Press [CD] comes with Off My Day photobook, First Press [CD+DVD] comes with On My Way photobook.
GUILTY: First Press (both versions? Or maybe CD+DVD only) comes with limited photobook.
NEXT LEVEL: all first presses have a differently colored jewel case. For example the CD-only version is blue (or green, I forgot). Also the [2CD+DVD] Pink version is completely limited, so there are no regular transparant versions of that. On top of that, they releases a very limited [USB-version], which was yellow and sold out in minutes. There's also a transparant encore press, both versions are rare and expensive.
(if you're confused: Anything that has a colored jewel case is limited, also the USB's are limited)
A BEST: first press comes with a cardboard sleeve, and underneath the cardboard sleeve can be 6 different covers, but I'd just get one :p judging your wallet haha.
A BALLADS: same thing as A BEST, also cardboard sleeve and there are 4 different covers underneath the sleeve.
A BEST 2: First press [CD+DVD] have a cardboard sleeve and a black or white colored jewel case (as opposed to the regular transparant ones).
A COMPLETE ~ALL SINGLES~: First press press [3CD+DVD] comes in a cardboard box with a limited photobook. This is the nicest first press in my opinion, so if you really want one special item, go for this! It's also a very complete collection of hers, so it's a great item.
I think that's all for her studio and compilation albums.. However for many albums there have also been Price Lotteries, where special items were sometimes added to orders. Also I think all of her albums' first presses have come with a poster. But I didn't count those.
There are also lots of remix albums and singles that have special first press editions, I'll list some from the top of my head in the spoiler. There are probably more but these are the ones I can think of right now:
