Used MoRA DVD-Box has become cheap these days in Yahoo! JAPAN auctions, around 4000 yen(excluding shipping) and you can grab it.

Yeah, Amazon.co.jp has them for about the same. I kind of feel bad getting them used though.

Funny to hear all this talk about MoRA now. I haven't checkout out the thread in a few days, but an hour ago I bought secondhand copies of the CD and DVD MoRA sets off Yahoo Auctions for 12,330 yen + forwarding service shipping fees.

Holy ****, they mastered the new single as the taiwan disc :/

True KZK didn't need remastering, but 90% of the album does sound better on MoRa. The sole exception is the ending of Souretsu. Oddly enough, the end of Souretsu isn't loud/brickwalled enough on MoRa.

Wow, that awful callback at the end of the new single. Thanks Ukigumo, RIP Noudouteki Sanpunkan.

(see yes she really is movin' on, movin' on)

I'm too scared to start talking about the new single cause I feel I will rant for years.

Anyway, it's awful.

The Most Curious Thing · 2015.07.09, 06:29 PM

well, I have something to look forward to when I get back to the States

good thing I'm waiting, cause US Coke is objectively worse than the rest of the world's and I don't think I could resist otherwise

New single is cute and inoffensive. Nice horns. Would replay.

I like how the distortion sounds kind of retro. Apart from that, this is one song that definitely reminds me of Jihen (in spite of that 'sounds like Jihen' meme) and is way too safe and middle of the road.

I can see why anyone would hate it. My worry is these last few singles will almost certainly make it to her next album. That's five (unremarkable) tracks already.

Also, they made it seem like Shiina Ringo was totally switching up her image this year. That she'd dial back on the whole effeminate diva thing. But that's not really true, is it?
