There have been so many updates lately.

CDJapan has already listed fripSide’s new album slated for 12/01 up for preorder (thank you, email)! There are two versions: limited edition with DVD for 3500yen, and regular edition, CD-only, for 3000yen. Both versions are up at HMV too. Anyone else really annoyed that even the album’s DVD version is labeled limited edition? The only details provided say that all three Railgun themes will appear, and HMV’s description says that all PVs and the makings will be included. Of course, don’t trust this info until the official site announces it, because sometimes CD shops are wrong.
Speaking of limited editions, I’m gonna pimp out some older releases. First, if you loved flower of bravery, the DVD edition is still available. This is the only way to get this song, sky -version2008-, and the PV, because it wasn’t included on the anthology. The limited edition of LEVEL5-judgelight- is readily available as well only available at Play-Asia now (perhaps their management didn’t want it to go as fast as only my railgun). Also, everyone should have a copy of split tears even if you own the anthology, because the jacket makes it worth it.
★★ If you’re looking to buy fripSide’s work, here are listings at the biggest sites that ship outside Japan. FYI, PlayAsia is the cheapest for one item purchases, but I’m not sure if counts towards Oricon. The other three definitely do. ★★

I was bored this morning and made a ton of graphics.
★★Fun Edit Fact: I was looking at Oricon today, and LEVEL5-judgelight- has sold over 60,000 this year! only my railgun made it at #150 on this year’s Top 150 Singles (judgelight at #77), selling a little over 300 copies this week. OMR has sold over 30k this year, with a total of 86,034!. That’s pretty cool.★★

A preview of future gazer video is now up at the official site! The video takes place at the Great Pyramids of Giza and the city of Giza. The scenery and camera angles are stunning. One of the best scenes in this video is actually Nanjo and Sat performing in the desert in front of the pyramids. The way the camera pans back and up as she sings the chorus is really just spectacular because such a shot gives us an entire view of great pyramids and the music makes it even more dramatic. When I was younger, I had a huge obsession with the pyramids and Ancient Egypt, so I’m really looking forward to seeing this pv in HQ in October!
