nao complete anthology 2002-2009 -my graduation- is an ultimate compilation album of the first 7 years of fripSide’s work with former vocalist nao. It was released on July 17, 2009 after nao’s graduation from fripSide on March 15 that year. This album is 10 discs, including every album and unreleased song by fripSide and fripSide NAO! project!. The only songs excluded are flower of bravery, sky-version 2008-, Yappari sekai wa atashi, and Pool Vacation, because those singles were released by a major records company. Satoshi said on his blog that releasing this compilation album was impossible under major distribution because of copyrights, so it’s only available in Japan.
This album was also sold at Comiket 77 at the Visual Arts booth.

“The only songs excluded are flower of bravery, sky-version 2008-, Yappari sekai wa atashi, and Pool Vacation”
Oh.my.god. I never knew that. Now there are apparently 4 fripSide songs I have never listened to, flower of bravery is on my youtube playlist though and it seems I listened to it quite a while ago and I do remember the melody too. But I’ve never heard the other songs at all, I’ve gotta found them somewhere.
i could be mistaken, but i don’t think the original version of ‘praying over’ was included, either. that one is on Toranoana Winter Mix Vol. 5, red version (aka disc 1, it is a 2-disc album that label the discs ‘red version’ and ‘blue version’)
Only praying over -album version- is included, so the original one is not in it.
I have only found the original on youtube with a iDOLM@STER AMV, but it’s at least something. I don’t think there’s much difference though, the album version is longer and there are some little bits changed here and there but the most is the same. It’s not that I have listened many times to it now, so I’m not completely sure.
