A Closer Look at Minorin’s Parade Specials
I was browsing through Lantis’ special Parade page and I see that they’ve listed out all the store-specific special goodies that come with purchasing Parade. 16 different specials for 16 different stores xD Now which crazy dedicated Minorin fan would go buy 16 copies of the album just to get ‘em all?
This is the B2 poster you’ll get if you buy the album from Animate, it’s the only one as…
…all the rest are photo inserts. This is from Anime Channel (#1)…
…Asobit…
…& my fave shot, from Mag Mani.
To get a rather boring looking photo album, you’ll have to buy both Parade & Paradise Lost together, at Gamers.
But if you do spend upwards of ￥3000 in Gamers, you might get your hands on a clear file.
Bleed (money), Minorin fans, bleed (money). I’m almost tempted to beg my brother to pop into Animate to buy me a copy, but I’m not really into posters I guess, judging by my rather threadbare bedroom. I’ll stick to just the one copy of Parade Dream Limited Edition [can't afford three copies!], there’s a few other releases that I want (Tomatsu Haruka’s Musuhi no Toki, Mizuhara Kaoru’s Yume no Ashioto ga Kikoeru etc) out on the same day.
OT, but I’m not really into fancy special packaging much cos I tend to use racks & boxes to store my albums & the odd shapes don’t help. My limited edition copies of Radiohead’s Amnesiac (a book) and Blur’s 13 (a white box) are now sitting collecting dust.. somewhere.

That’s a nice album cover. Very enigmatic; Minorin standing there in front of a broken wagon with slightly circus-like paint and various bric-a-brac and candles scattered around. Wonder if it has some deeper meaning; or it’s just whimsical. Not your typical glamor shot for an album cover. Plus, on her blog there’s a companion shot with the same image by daylight.
The smaller image of the cover on her blog makes it looks like a carnival in the far background, with the wagon wheel as the Ferris wheel.
I might have to consider ordering this album; Minorin has really grown on me lately.

Man, that’s a lot of extra goodies we’ll never see the light of day of ;_;
And yes, I’ll bleed for Minorin any day… just wonder how long I can continue to do so!

I thought CDJapan had a bonus poster. Or maybe Animate gets the nice clean poster while CDJapan buyers get the poster full of text XD.
Damn, I just finished paying off for Live Fighter and this comes in my face and tempts me. Decisions, decisions.
And moyism, you could always try Yahoo Auctions if you’re really desparate. But considering how much you spend…

Damn, I was trying to forget about all these things we can never get (I might buy 11 Trickster to get all the pics..). It’s sad when you have the money and the will to buy but you couldn’t..
…but there’s still a place called yahoo auction. *runs*

buying one is fan…
buying two is good fan…
buying more than two is great great fan…

[...] the photo booklet inside the Minorin’s album and alas, I am not rich enough to gather all the 16 different specials packed together with Minorin’s album. Oh well, another 9 days to wait before the album is [...]
