What does "moyou" mean? It will be call Cherry Blossom what?

Moyou means Pattern in Japanese Basically the English title of the photo book is Sakura Pattern

Speaking of which, the photo book will include photos of Sakura with sakura trees Cue the "Inception" and "Yo Dawg" memes j/k

I wonder what would be the cheapest way to order this... I've never bought stuff from anywhere else than CDJapan.

[akarinxxx]

Regarding Sakura's Solo book, if you purchase the book from:
Amazon Jp: Limited Edition Cover
Tower Records: A photo comes with it
7net: A photo comes with it
I-tike HMV: A photo comes with it

I wonder what would be the cheapest way to order this... I've never bought stuff from anywhere else than CDJapan.

 

I used to just go to the diff sites that had them and add to cart, then calculate shipping and see which one comes up to the cheapest. I think I used to see CD Japan give me a better price, I haven't checked recently but I still use them cause I've had no issues with them

[Youne]

^ CD Japan seems like the site that's easiest to use, but I'll do comparison with other sites as well. Also Need to see limited cover first...

[akarinxxx]

^ Amazon Jp does support international shipping

[zam（仮）]

If you have a bookstore in your neighbourhood, preferably Kinokuniya, you can put in an order.
I know Kino doesn't charge you shipping, but thats at my place not sure about other countries.

[phoenix00]

^^ amazon.jp ships internationally but IT'S EXPENSIVE!!! Usually over 1000 JPY for a 3000 JPY photobook.

 

^ all the Japanese bookstores are gone from my town I'm afraid

[Youne]

^ Thanks, then I won't even bother looking it up from there.

[phoenix00]

^ usually if you buy multiple items they don't charge the full amount for shipping & brokerage, plus if you want the amazon.jp exclusive cover...................

That's just a fan edit. The real covers aren't up online yet and probably won't be until next week or until May 9th, since it seems to take around 20 days before they appear

i just received those image from friend in cellphone, i thought it's a preview LOL

The fan who made this is the same guy who did the DaaSaku fan edits of the promo poster for Momusu's stage musical, which is why the picture you posted looks like it's the real thing even though it isn't

Update: The PB covers have been added to the first post
