I havent bought mine, will be getting it when i go back to my workplace so that I can get staff discount...muawahahahahaahah

anyway, to the person who asked about BoA album, It still not out yet when i asked my colleague. As for if its 2CD+2DVD, i think it might be since the email stated $30 plus

Vanny, if I remember correctly Namie's PLAY SG Press didn't come with a translation sheet as well.

I remembered how when Namie's PLAY came out people were warning Singaporeans that the DVD was region 2 or something cuz of the information on the OBI

^How can it not come with one?! That's really bad and lazy. Quality maintenance is one thing but to deprove, come on.

Paiseh, should be shun. My chinese stinks. And i'm demanding a translation sheet. Hope everyone's NL will be without glitches and we can all listen to ayu's newest album with smiles on our faces.

The translation sheet is not that essential to me though it appears like Warner @ SG is getting lazy... or are they trying save money on paper and printer ink and translation fees???

^ I think Warner never took the time to properly translate Japanese songs. They just take the translations from the Hong Kong version. Because obviously, Singapore is not using traditional Chinese like Hong Kong or Taiwan. Neither is Singapore having Chinese as a first language. I bet Warner is just plain lazy to even get someone to translate. They should very well know that 95% of the Singaporean's (who buy J-Pop/K-Pop items) first language is English.

Conclusion: Warner is lazy. Never were they diligent. GUILTY and Secret within 1 week? Sheer luck.

^ LOL. Remember that GUILTY, though out within a week, was cheapskated with NO photobook... if they give us an album fast, there'll be some flaw, and if they take forever... they make us wait!

LacusClyne: Get well soon for whatever operation you will be going for.

Now that everyone has mentioned... I just realise that there's no translation sheet.
and according to the disc - it's made in japan? It's region 2? Die my player region 3 de eh

And the case is rather idiotic - i need to lift up the disc 2 thing before i can open the case to 180degrees. If i dont do that, the cover will be like 'stuck' and i think if I open it by force... my case will sure break.

Well the "made in Japan" is just cos they're lazy to change right? I mean if I find out it's a different region code I would seriously complain to CASE!

yeah that surprised me Hui Min because I really thought that Warner might import the HK press over here to be sold

& then my younger sister said that it's made in S'pore which was cool initally but now aiyo after so many complaints , importing sounds better like WAYYY
