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)

Fanfare! will be used to promote the TV Asahi drama Semi Otoko , starring Yamada & V6's Miyake Ken

The new single will be released in 3 versions , CD only & 2 CD + DVDs
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!)

BRAVE will be released on 11th Sept and back in last Oct , it was chosen to be used as the image song for NTV's broadcast of the Rugby World Cup 2019

The new single will be released in 3 versions . Aside from CD only & CD + DVD , the 3rd version is a CD + Blu-ray version , a 1st in ARASHI's discography singles wise

No B-sides are included in BRAVE

About damn time for BRAVE to get released as a single . I'm surprised it took ARASHI so long to get this done

I guess JStorm wanted to capitalise on the impending Rugby World Cup 2019 as it will begin on 20th Sept

Also I'm surprised BRAVE does not include any B-sides & the last single that ARASHI had no B-sides included in their singles was 2010's To be free

Perhaps due to this , they decided to compromise & put out a CD + Blu-ray which's a 1st for them to do
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...?
