Picked up my copy of Egao today. I found the b-side, Anata ni Deaete, to be rather bland though. Oh well, I still can't get over the beauty of the cover

WTF!!!! Today??????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Where do you live?!

Let me guess: CdJapan - EMS?


EDIT

Since fingernails are a main concern for many visitors of this thread (ahem), just have a look at that exclusive import:

Brand new state-of-the-art Japanese fingernails, bearing their owner's name and age!

Thanks, Ima282! Good point! I'll be careful next time.

The single debuted at #8 on Oricon Daily Ranking. (Although I know not to expect too much about the numbers, I still wished a miracle would happen. Anyway, considering those strong competitors (read: L'Arc~en~Ciel|#1, EXILE|#2, Hikaru Utada|#3,...) up there, #8 is probably not too bad. Now let's hope it'll stay relatively steady for several days.)

(Suna wo Kamu You ni... Namida debuted at #5, and Ki ga Tsukeba Anata #2. But it's not too wise to do this comparison anyway.)

La Habra, California.
Believe it or not, I bought it in a store! My friends and myself were in Downtown LA yesterday, and we swung by the KINOKUNIYA book store, and lo and behold they had it. I honestly wasn't expecting that at all myself! A pretty cool surprise, I gotta admit.

Oh, and if you guys think the cover is good, wait until you see the inside cover!

[Alienpyon]

^ It sounded all weird when you said "I picked it up" instead of "I received"! Seemed like you live in Shibuya but, whatever, you got it on its release day

As regards the inside cover, thanks for the heads up; I've got a couple of oxygen bottles and inhalers ready, just in case

You're so lucky!!!

Scan! Scan!!

Nice fingernails, Alien. Will suggest them to my boss

And well, at least Egao started in the Top10...


Oh, and stay away from Aya, guys. OR ELSE!!
Remember: Look, but don't touch

Bad idea, unless his name is "Aya" and he's "18" years old. Not impossible but unlikely!

[Mattthecat]

Of course Boss Matsu, and those numbers can be changed :-)

[itzuki]

I saw this during weekend. Nice, yes?

[Cotton Cloth]

OMG!!

how is this movie?

I have the US release DVD (ex-blockbuster, bought off eBay, arrived 2 days ago).

All I can say is that as bad as it is, it's probably one of the better H!P related movie offerings I've seen.


We all know Aya can act, and she does a pretty good job with this drek. Rika and the girls from Viyuden are there also, and I have no complaints about them. But I think it's a little odd when the so-called professional actors in a movie are out-acted by a quartet of pop stars.

The story is just absurd and relies on the fact that nobody ever asks the right questions, or does any of the obvious things. Large chunks of this film as just so embarrassing that I watched them with my hands over my eyes, groaning. The opening scenes in New York were so bad that I almost gave up on the film right there.

But some of the later fight scenes are entertaining enough. And the girls all look great, so...

C+?

One of the things that's interesting is that the actors seem to look away from the camera a lot when they're talking, perhaps anticipating that the film would be dubbed for foreign markets. And the English dub is not entirely awful. The Voice Over artists seem to be of a higher quality than many of the Japanese actors on-screen.

Yay-yay!!.. thanx a lot!!!

[Alienpyon]

Scan! Scan!!

Shibuya, La Habra, Athens (GR). Such a small world! My copy of "Egao" arrived today!

So, here are the scans that you asked for, mylord!






Excuse the huge size. Or don't

F***ing

Couldn't agree more!

LOL! I rushed home, scanned the insert, posted it and then listened to the songs! I couldn't resist !!!

Anyway, the problem with scanning, sometimes, is that the paper itself on which covers are printed is not of such good quality, thus, the scan ends up a bit messy. The above scans are a good example. Scans from photobooks are ten times better (=better paper), although I do engage the same hardware, resolution etc. Oh, I'm off topic...
