> cdjapan !#$%^& NOT AGAIN!!!

Okay, was I BLIND when I clickety on the CDJapan's ONE DVD listing on December 5, or...
WAS THAT BUTTON TO CLAIM A 500 YEN CHRISTMAS COUPON NOT THERE YET!!!!!! :v-jdig::v-jdig::v-jdig:

Seriously CDJAPAN HAS GOT TO STOP DOING THIS!!!!!! Why the heck do they ALWAYS give me coupons RIGHT AFTER I've placed my order??!?!?!!! This isn't even funny anymore, like WTF?????? And the only reason I discovered this so-called Christmas coupon was because they sent me yet another NewsMail, in which of course my eyes popped and my heart almost stopped when I saw ANOTHER NEWSMAIL IN MY INBOX?!?!?! It was like YAYYYY and NOOOOOOOOO at the same time but then I open it and saw it was a repeat NewsMail for ONE and was like... nyeh... :v-cloud: But you know, being the Takki-OCD that I am, I just had to clickety on the listing again to see IF ANYTHING WAS DIFFERENT and well, YES, SOMETHING WAS A LITTLE DIFFERENT WITH THE PAGE... THERE IS A CLICKY ON THE PAGE TO GET ANOTHER 500 YEN OFF THAT WASN'T THERE BEFORE!!!!!!! :v-skull::v-skull::v-skull::v-skull:

Oooooh I feel sooooo MAD but am I suppose to what, cancel my order and pre-order again??? That's just like having to line up for a week and then getting out of your spot and lining up all over again from the end of the line!!! But why is it that Takitsuba's stuff ALWAYS get listed RIGHT BEFORE COUPONS ARE RELEASED??? I'm sure fans of whoever is releasing a CD that got listed TODAY aren't complaining... argh... I should've waited, but SERIOUSLY, with all the FIRST PRESS and LIMITED RELEASE phrases hanging all over the page, WOULD YOU WAIT???

LOL~ I didn't think so XD

> 12,070 JPY

First of all... CDJapanは遅かった！！！ (=.=;) There I was waiting and waiting for their NewsMail and then Aibo told me that the links are out and I was like... but there's no NewsMail yet!!! So I checked their site, lo and behold, links are up! Aiyaks baka~ I guess we shouldn't really rely on NewsMail!

Secondly...

12,070 JPY.... :v-skull::v-skull::v-skull::v-skull:

How much was 2wo You 4our You again? Why is it that this time it felt ASTOUNDINGLY EXPENSIVE??? I can't even remember anymore how much I paid for 2wo You 4our You? OH... now I remember! I ONLY BOUGHT TWO VERSIONS!!! Then Aki bought me the Regular Press, which got switched by HMV with some WTF Boards of Canada band... but eventually I got it as my bday present! :v-heart: THAT'S WHY...!!!

I just went click, click, click all 3 without thinking, and checkout... + EMS - 400 points it came up to 12,070 JPY. I was in a hurry to rush out to a meeting so I didn't ponder on it much and just click PROCESS ORDER.

Now I thought about it... FRAK. THAT IS EXPENSIVE!!!! ...FOR CDs!!!!!

Should I cancel the [CD+DVD] version kana??? But what if it runs out??? But DAMN IT'S EXPENSIVE!!! 4000 YEN ARGH!!! For a DVD with contents I seemingly ALREADY HAVE!!!! Grrrrr...

> i feel CHEATED!!

Just saw the BEST ALBUM track listings on the Avex website...

:O=O(oro)OoO

Actually, I'm really psyched about the extra CD in the [CD+CD] version... REALDX!!! Koi yo!!! AMAGAWD!!! :v-heart: But the main CD tracks... WTF?

True Heart / タッキー&翼
キ・セ・キ / 滝沢秀明
Get Down / 今井 翼
卒業～さよならは明日のために～ / タッキー&翼
夢物語 / タッキー&翼
One Day,One Dream / タッキー&翼
愛想曲 / タッキー&翼
仮面 / タッキー&翼
未来航海 / タッキー&翼
Venus / タッキー&翼
Ho! サマー / タッキー&翼
×～ダメ～ / タッキー&翼
Crazy Rainbow / タッキー&翼
SAMURAI / タッキー&翼

Source: avextrax

Errrrrrr............ OoO :v-sweatdrop:

THAT'S NOT THE BEST OF T&T!!! That's simply EVERY SINGLE SONG EVER RELEASED AS A SINGLE!!! + their first 3 debut songs!!! THUD!!! And most of them were already recorded on AT LEAST 2 released CDs, so yeah... I guess we reeeeaally need to have them in a 3rd CD huh!!!!?? :v-jdig:

I seriously didn't think they would RE-RELEASE ALL THE SONGS THAT HAD PREVIOUSLY BEEN RELEASED AS A SINGLE AND IN SEVERAL ALBUMS... AGAIN!!! I was telling Toro-chan about BEST ALBUM news earlier this morning and she was laughing at me saying that it's probably gonna be like... SAMURAI reggae version or x~DAME~ hip hop version or something XDDD And I told her nooo wayyy, it's gonna be Junior songs (coz I really didn't think they'd do something so redundant---like the TAKITSUBA CLIPS DVD XD) But apparently... I was too naive to think that Avex wouldn't cheat us like this!!!

And even though I'm psyched about the Junior songs CD.... I'm still kinda bummed that it doesn't include 894 Hakushi or CIRCLEEEEEE~~~ T_T Oh well... I guess I can't complain much since they have REALDX and Koi yo... I guess I'll cry MORE if they didn't include Koi yo! XD

Speaking of which... I just realized that not only do fans have to fly to 55 locations across Japan, they also have to buy 55 CDs coz apparently each code is only valid for a SINGLE DOWNLOAD??? Holy shit ZAT EEZ MADNESS!!!!!!!!!! :v-skull:

I wonder if anyone in Japan will actually embark on this "COLLECT ALL 55 WALLPAPER COMMEMORATION OF T&T'S 5TH ANNIVERSARY" Holy Grail Pilgrimage? I can just imagine myself taking 2 weeks off from work and going on a ROADTRIP across Japan and randomly downloading wallpaper images... THAT I PROBABLY WON'T BE ABLE TO BRING HOME UNLESS I BUY MYSELF A JAPANESE KEITAI!!! Thud. The things we'd do for T&T.

Nah, actually, I don't think I'm anywhere interested in roadtripping across Japan for... keitai wallpapers XD

> BEST ALBUM!!!

It's on OCTOBER 17!!!!!!

Woah... oh bery shokku!!! But nice timing though, announcing it on Sep 11! Well... just a flash on Avex page... and some newspaper pages... but here's the CRACKPOT info that I gathered about it from the short time I skimmed through the Sanspo page in the car ride to work:

1. Album is 3 versions (CD, 2CD, CD+DVD). Meh. Typical avex =_=

2. Released on October 17, 2007 (ding dong what day is that day?? XD Tsubasa's 26th birthdaaaay~)

3. There will be JR SONGS!!! *YES!!!!*

4. Fujii Fumiya and his brother wrote a song for the album too (Woah, NICE!)

5. Each CD bought comes with a UNIQUE ID or SERIAL NUMBER (W T F ???)

6. Said UNIQUE ID or SERIAL NUMBERS can be used to access a special keitai site asdfghjkl;

7. There will be special wallpaper images downloadable on that keitai site

8. There are a total of 55 different images, accessible only in different areas in nationwide Japan

9. You can only collect all the images if you are PERSONALLY, GEOGRAPHICALLY PRESENT at the corresponding area. Meaning: if you live in Tokyo but want an Osaka wallpaper, you'll have to FLY (or take the shinkansen) from Tokyo to Osaka!

10. These downloads are only available from Oct 17 - Oct 31

I'm psyched about POINT 1-4 but THE REST MAKES ME GO WTF???

WHOEVER CAME UP WITH THIS CRACK SHOULD BE SHOT DEAD!!!

Like... wha??? You have to roadtrip across Japan to collect CELLPHONE WALLPAPERS???

WHAT ABOUT US OVERSEAS FANSSSSS!!!! :v-skull:

...not that I'm particularly *THAT* interested in cellphone wallpapers... considering that it's Japanese keitai wallpapers... it probably won't be able to be used in a Nokia or a Sony Ericsson ~___~ Bleh.

CDJapan's preorder links are not out yet... well I guess I'll just wait for the Newsmail? Can they please just hurry up and post the links already??!

But seriously, again, WHO CAME UP WITH THIS SHEEEET? LMAOOOO... Well, I gotta say it *IS* pretty creative... but argh I do hate anything having to do with JAPANESE KEITAI simply because WE WHO LIVE OVERSEAS CAN'T GET IT!!!! And I thought the YUME CARDS caused enough frenzy already BUT NOW THEY'RE MAKING THE FANS GO ON AN AMAZING RACE KIND OF THING ACROSS JAPAN!!!!! LOL! Oh be still my logic that's hanging by a thread... XD

OK... gotta go to a meeting now ==33

> is there a takitsuba fan welfare program?

AGHGGHGHGHHHH SO MANY TAKITSUBA RELATED EXPENSES!!!!! My eyes popped when Cyn told me last night there were freakin TEN sets of stage photos from 2007 Enbujou up for sale on J-web! (And yes, those TEN SETS I'm talking about are Takki's! Meaning there are more sets of other Juniors!) TEN SETS OF STAGE PHOTOS EQUALS THIRTY FRAKKIN' THOUSAND YEN :v-skull::v-skull::v-skull: ON JUST THE PHOTOS ALONE!!!! Isn't that like... USD 250??? Is it just me or is it a really absurdly ridiculous amount of money to spend on something made out of PAPER????

And yet we spend and spend all that money without even so much of a second thought, even if we know it's just PAPER but the fact that a Takki face is emblazoned on it makes all the huge difference! And everyone was being so evil, instead of discouraging me to NOT spend so much on stoopid photos they're all saying if I don't get all 10 sets I'll regret ittttt BWAAAAAAA.... SILENCIOOOOOO!!!! :v-bling: AVADA KEDAVRAAAA!!! :v-skull: So, I ended up getting ONLY *cough cough* 6 sets, and even though the album actually fits 40 photos but getting 8 sets means I MIGHT AS WELL GET ALL 10 SO I'M STICKING TO JUST 6!!!!! NO MORE TEMPTING ME ALL YOU EVIL EVIL PEOPLE!!! XD

...and that's only the photos yo. There's still the pamphlet (must have!), poster (not so much a must-have, but yeeah it's kinda a must-have), postcard (must have!), sensu (MUCHO MUST x10000 HAVE!), photo album (not so much a must have but since I bought stage photos it becomes an unfortunate necessity!)... and that ridiculously funny OIL BLOTTING PAPER (NOW THIS ONE IS A NO NEED TO HAVE XD) BWAHAHAHAHAAAA Aki, Cyn and I still laugh like hell everytime the subject of the notorious ENBUJOU OIL BLOTTING PAPER comes up~ it's just way too funny!!! AND NO, I DON'T WANT IT!!! ...wellll ok so maybe I kinda do, a little... XDDDD But that's just out of curiosity! LOL!

And I haven't fully paid my credit card debt with the Enbujou DVD charged on it. And I also backordered some magazines last month... and now my credit card will be charged again with the SAMURAI CDs... BTW, CDJAPAN SENT ME MAIL THAT SAMURAI CDs WERE SHIPPED OUT TODAY??? But today's only August 6?! That's... FAST! :v-lightning: Yay! But with it being shipped to Indonesia, and August 8 being the day where everybody in Jakarta goes to punch a hole in a ballot to elect yet another useless governor... I'll probably STILL get it later than everyone else! Hmph.

Aghghghghgh so much $$$$ running out like a leaky faucettttt!!! I'm seriously AFRAID to tally up how much I've actually spent on one Takizawa Hideaki alone along 2003 to present time......... I'm afraid the amount sums up to a digit that could actually... buy me a car??? :v-gun:

> asdfghjkl#^@%^*+ CDJapan RAWR!

So I opened my Gmail this morning and saw another e-mail from CDJapan in which the subject reads:

"500yen Coupon from CDJapan"

WHAT THE FRAK!!!! :v-jdig::v-jdig::v-jdig:

In a general case, you'd think OH HOW GENEROUS OF THEM!!! But NOT when CDJapan offers me a 500 yen discount ONE WEEK AFTER I PLACED MY ORDER FOR SOME T&T SOMETHING!!! :v-jdig::v-jdig::v-jdig: They do this almost every time!!!! I think they did this for Ho!Summer or one of the solo concert DVDs last year!!! HOW EVIL!!!!!!!!!!! Now I can't use this 500 yen coupon anymore unless I cancel my previous order and then re-order it again? Which is too much work and I don't feel like doing it coz then I'll be bumped to the end of the line in which I probably won't be getting First Press anymore or something... not that the First Press is anything important or anything but OK point being, I'm just lazy! So unless T&T lists their SAMURAI by July 31, that coupon is going to burn to ashes :v-fire:

Rawr CDJapan!!!!!!!! :v-fire::v-skull::v-gun: Zurueeeeeeeee~~~!!!! =~(
