Tired of purchasing merchandise online at a push? Do you want to get more access to fanclub goodies? This is for you.

Hello!Project WORLDWIDE Fanclub Petition

Official petition to be printed:

To UFA:

We, the fans of Morning Musume (and other Hello! Project acts) would like to ask for the establishment of an official fanclub throughout the world. Many of us would love to join the official fanclub in Japan, unfortunately we do not have Japanese addresses to do so.

While we have access to purchase CDs and DVDs made available to the general public of Japan, we have a very hard time purchasing other merchandise either available online, in stores, at events or through fanclub orders. A number of us purchase items we find available through resellers or friends with foreign addresses but a good deal of us do not have access to these methods either.

A multi-national fanclub would give many of us the ability to purchase fanclub only DVDs, photo cards, t-shirts and other merchandise we would love to own. We also want to support our favorite members directly so they know how many fans they have around the world!

Please consider opening a new fanclub for fans outside of Japan, or opening the Japanese fanclub to foreign fans. We understand there would be extra costs to ship goods abroad and are more than willing to pay the shipping fees associated with this.

The undersigned.
---

This has been edited from being just a U.S fanclub to being a World-wide fanclub.

If you are attending AnimeExpo, you can also sign up there if you choose not to mail in your information/a letter. Those not attending can mail/e-mail information.

Things to send:
-Letter expressing support for a fanclub.
-Pictures of your collection (to show what you have bought from them so they know we spend money), if you bought tracks from JapanFiles or iTunes write a list of what you bought since you can’t really take a picture of them.
-A signature card for the petition.

Letters must not be over one page in length (including both text and pictures). Please include lots of pictures of your collection to show how much we've gone out of our way to purchase merchandise! We want to make this a profitable endeavor for UFA.

Not everyone has to send a letter, but everyone who wishes to sign the petition must sign a signature card. We would like to have as much leverage as possible, so please spend the time to write out a letter/e-mail a document.

Signature card:

No information will be shared with anyone other than an official UFA or Anime Expo person who would pass the information along if UFA couldn’t take it directly. We are trusting that you will not abuse the contact information provided. If it comes to be a problem, we will remove it.

This is under the World Events section because the petition will be handed over at Anime Expo, but even if you are not attending please sign. Every name counts

If you have any suggestions please post them here.

We strongly encourage that people advertise the existence of the petition on other sites, in your signature, whatever is necessary. We want this to have an impact with as much support as humanly possible!!

A thread to discuss details for Morning Musume's very first U.S event!

READ THE FAQ BEFORE POSTING!!!
...Please? Stickied for your convenience.

You can check out the thread about the MM Events in their thread on AX forums.

Are you still looking for a roommate? PM myself AND Eojjeorago, and we'll help you guys find each other. There's a thread here for this purpose as well.

NEWS UPDATES

Update 1: Confirmed by UFA.

Update 2: User sign-up list added. I have changed it so that only those who are FOR SURE going are on the list. It's not because I don't love you, it's just too time consuming to keep track of everyone when really it's only relevant if you're going or not.

Update 3: MM will be signing autographs at AX **

Update 4: Tickets will go on sale on March 4. REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN!! Click here for more info. Anime Expo FAQ.

!!!Update 5: "Morning Musume will be performing on Friday, as per the official announcement from AX staff. And, historically, concerts begin at 1 PM. As far as autograph session goes, it is safe to assume it will not be the same day as the concert, and it is fairly unlikely it will be on the first or last days."!!!**

Update 6: Information about gifts, shirts, and party has been added. Links at the bottom of this post!

Please only make plans if you are serious about going or want to help out those who are going. Maybe we can set up a meet-up.

First of all, thanks to Nouciel for compiling this list for me. She undertook looking through all the pages and checking to see who was for sure going and who was just maybe going. PLEASE PM me if you're for sure going, but if it says that I am online posting in the thread is sufficient as things have slowed down now. The "maybe" goers are no longer included on the list. It would be great to assess just how many members we have set up to go so that we can better plan what we're going to do.

Talk about how to identify other H!O members here.

ミ★AX 2009 Scrapbook★彡

Design a H!O / AX T-Shirt Competition Winner gets a photobook!

Hello!Party Attend if you can, it should be a blast!

**- I'm getting this info from Eojjeorago, who is acting as our voice on the AX forums. Thanks a lot!

Before I got into j-music and H!P I was really into anime + manga, so I thought I'd sell the stuff I no longer want/am interested in having.

-I only accept Paypal (no extra fees).
-I do ship internationally.
-I'll calculate the shipping once you've decided what you want. It'll be be based on weight since I already have boxes.
-Try to PM me only, please, but if you post in the thread it's no big deal.
-Availability may be in question because I have some of these items listed on ebay, however if one of them sells I will update this page as quickly as possible.

If you're interested in swapping for H!P items, that would be like a dream so I'll probably just end up selling these, but if you ARE interested in that, please let me know because swapping is my preferred method of getting rid of this stuff.

Wall Scrolls

If you've seen one of these before you know what I'm talking about. These are very large + colorfully dyed thin cloth hanging between two thin black rods. The ones I own are particularly nice + detailed with beautiful colorations and in very good condition. The shipping will be around $7-$8, so keep this in mind. It's difficult to find containers for these, so I'm just making an estimate at the shipping price.

Neon Genesis Evagelion Platinum 01 - ($9)
(Platinum edition has remastered/surround sound and is SO much better than the original version. The outer reflective case is a little shoddy but the DVD case inside is in mint condition, only watched once. I got the box set not long after this, I liked it that much.

I checked this forum and was surprised that there wasn't a thread for webcomics yet! I really love them and try to read them as much as I can, and there are a lot of funny ones out there. Post your recommendations, favorites, or preferences here, maybe even some images of your favorites!

Here are my favorites:

The Perry Bible Fellowship
^Couldn't find a favorite image, most of these are quite funny. Do check it out. Well, funny in my opinion... I have a kind of a sick sense of humor, so these aren't really "ha ha ha" funny...

Dinosaur Comics

^Stupidly pretentious...or comic genius? Your choice! Also, fun fact, the creator is/was an english teacher in Japan and used these templates and had the kids fill them in.

White Ninja Comics
^Pretty funny.

Cyanide and Happiness
^Hit or miss.

toothpaste for dinner
^Hit or miss.

Check these out (especially pbfcomics, seriously funny), and share yours!
