One of my CD Japan orders arrived today. :) Originally I was only going to buy the Official BOG soundtrack and DVD & Blu-Ray Vision BoG magazinge, but then I read Mikes review on DBZ 20th Century songs best (which I've ordered and is on it's way :)), and realised I better get Legend of DragonWorld too. So I did. :D

Soppa Saiyjins from Dorgou Ballru Zetto is my favorite transformation everah, especially when Trounksoru did it in front of Seru and when Bejita did it when he faced Jingonigen-hachigo. But for real, I use the FUNi pronunciation. - Soppa Saia People

That's precisely why ordinary men pursue the concept of perfection, it's infatuation. But ultimately I have to ask myself "What is the true meaning of being perfect?" and the answer I came up with was nothing. Not one thing. The truth of the matter is I despise perfection! If something is truly perfect, that's IT! The bottom line becomes there is no room for imagination! No space for intelligence or ability or improvement! Do you understand? To men of science like us, perfection is a dead end, a condition of hopelessness. Always strive to be better than anything that came before you but not perfect! Scientist's agonize over the attempt to achieve perfection! That's the kind of creatures we are! We take joy in trying to exceed our grasp, in trying to reach for something that in the end, we have to admit may in fact be unreachable!"

I was going to buy one of these for my friend at CDJAPAN and it looks like they're sold out. Since it's only April 4th, I'm assuming they'll get more in stock?
They got 'sold out' after I bought mine last week but were restocked a few days later, so I guess they'll get more.

These came in for me at Kinokuniya today:

So now I have the FLOW single and complete movie soundtrack. FLOW's "English" version of Cha-la Head-cha-la is pretty hilarious. I can understand some of the lyrics because it's a fairly straight forward translation of the original song. But then sometimes I'm hearing lyrics like "look, my brand new jeans." :lol: Proooobably not what they're saying.

With the movie soundtrack, I'm desperately trying to imagine scenes from the movie as I listen to it, hoping it will feel like I'm actually watching the movie...it's not working :(

This thread is giving me all sorts of ideas of other things I want to buy. Grrr, I've been trying to be good with my budget, but this movie, man...it's just lowering my defenses!

Can Kinokuniya ship CD's now, or did you pick that up at their store?
Because if there's a way to get CD's to ship from Kino, I want to buy the soundtrack from there.

Still waiting on my CDJapan order (but they did warn me that it'll be a while since I chose the SAL shipping).

Next time if there's something BOG-related that I really want from them, I'll just pick the FED-EX shipping instead, even though it costs more.

Maybe I should go to CDJapan for the soundtrack after all...I'm undecided.

Looking at their website, they seem to only sell books online, no CDs. I literally work right next to a Kinokuniya, so I always just pick my orders up in the store.

I'm not sure if Kinokuniya has standard pricing across all its US stores or if it varies, but my copy of the soundtrack was about $10 more than the CD Japan price. But then I don't have to pay for shipping, so it kinda evens out in the end.

:P :lol:
It is in his character to be rude and a bit crass. He's a hick, with no formal education. That is Son Goku. That is who he is.

Superman in an orange Gi was the bastard son of FUNimation. Its not The real character, it is as false as Chatku.
