I still think it's SR on the front! The shape of the eyes tell me it's SR...
Can someone give a confirmation?

I read somewhere that there IS Shiina haunting on this cover. But I just can't tell where. Both pictures on the side does not look like Shiina to me. Maybe she's in TR's eyes?

Am thinking Shiina's the one on the front cover instead of TR.

How rare is this? (I'm thinking Glathannus should know...)
What's the average price for a used copy? Should new copies still be available in stores?
My friends are going to Japan in May and I'm giving them a list of stuff to buy for me (mostly in used cd stores).

On Yahoo! Japan Auctions, used copies are very easy to get, and if you go to a used CD store in Japan, they might be moderately easy to find. New copies are insanely difficult to find, since this single has been out-of-print for years. Things like the Stem CD or the Mayonaka wa Junketsu vinyl are considerably easier to find unopened than an unopened Shoujo Robot CD, even though they've been out-of-print too.

Thanks for the info! I'll include it in my list, but I'll mark my max price accordingly, so I have more chances of getting it.

My collection is far from being complete so right now, I just focus on getting more stuff for my rare buck, rather than going for shrink wrapped goodies, especially of the rare kind. Not that I wouldn't like to though >_<

I've heard Shoujo Robot a long time ago, but I just listened to the B-sides now. I love them both, but Nihon ni Umarete takes the cake with me. I'm a sucker for well-written gospel/soul music. (: And it's nice that this one is flavored with Shiina's trademark turbulent sound. The middle is a little everywhere, but I kind of like it -- reminds me of Ringo Catalogue.

Ikenai Ko is nice as well.. reminds me of Chara's style of music. I feel that a lot of Chara's songs kind of stay in one place, but Shiina has really added a lot of depth to the style.

It's nice to hear new things after you thought you heard it all. (:

I mean.. .that's not shiina's eye at all...



I think, it's more likely, that she's the girl, shown from behind... aren't those the characteristic ringo-shoulders? oO
