Klassic Note Welfare Package July 2021

Thursday, 22 July 2021
Don't you love it when your work week technically ends at Thursday because you work from home on Friday? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA okay me

It's just in time that this arrived as I've been tracking it for the past week earnestly I might add, and yeah, here it is. It's not much, and I'll cover this with the other smaller package which arrived through another place from the same company technically lol you'll know, and we'll talk about how all these happened before... well the next one's likely in two months so we'll enjoy this for a while.

Shall we?




[From Two Weeks Ago]
Isobe Karin Birthday Event Bromides + Tachibana Rika Bromide Set (Buyee)
Inori Machi Diary July 2021
Waki Azumi 1st LIVE "Chou Kakumeiteki Koisuru Ongakukai" Pamphlet
Toyosaki Aki Live Tour "CBH 1st Issue" Goods

And since I'm too excited to take a picture of the box because I rather do some UNBOXING!!! RIGHT... NOW- Okay slow down me, we have to recap on what happened a couple of week ago, so FLASHBACK!! Haha

I think I said this in an Entertainment News post before as I got it weeks ago after the previous time we did this, but this was small enough to fit in the mailbox which my dad only opens every morning

So, as to why these are here in a different packages in the first place considering why I would never do that unless... yes it's that thing again, I can't buy from those places. So yes, in this case it's Isobe Karin's birthday party event goods featuring Sanrio mascots in case you don't know of them, so I assume they wouldn't allow you to buy directly if you don't live in Japan because they likely only allowed Japanese bank cards (and Sanrio wants to protect its IP from foreigners?), so yes, I got Buyee (which is under the same branch as Tenso which did the package delivered today) to do it for me. It was totally worth it though they were good stuff haha 

No really, Karin-chan is adorable, in many ways than other

Also, because I had to pad the order or else shipping for this will make me cry because it's just bromides she didn't have a pamphlet which is such a pity (hehe), Buyee also coincidentally gave me a voucher worth a whopping 1500yen in discount of any item purchased. It's not a lot if you buy literal figurines which cost hundreds BUT (Haha) since I only buy bromides (mostly) from recently opened a couple of years ago selling platform Mercari (I've bought from there before through Buyee, if you would recall that bomb of a free shipping run from last year lol that was when they gave a 5000yen discount on international shipping which is rather overkill but yeah, free shipping) it effectively made this Tachibana Rika bromide set only about 1000yen in total for, hear this, TWELVE bromides in all haha yeah (average price 88yen so 1 dollar here) so now you know why I would give them money lol. But yeah, they don't do this everyday, and I can't find a better fitting item which is closer to that discount of a voucher so this fit in quite nicely along with Karin-chan's actual new bromides. *laughs* Now you know. I've checked a bit on these over the past week scanning these in (hehe), and they are mostly from her (I barely even know about her solo music career before she... got married by the way haha but yeah I learnt it was from) 2nd single "Returner Butterfly" and I bet whoever got this probably bought off most of them through other auctions because there is no way you can go buy the CDs from different stores AND go to every single event which gives out these bromides for free haha maybe they did I don't know. And also to why I chose this, man I can never get enough of sexy Rika-sama lol I know she's married okay but beauty is independent of marital status, people
RIKA-SAMA~!!! I am simping soooo hard right now I can't even

Yeah if Rika-sama would start selling something in her revived fanclub like Inorin and Akarin that'll be SWEET~ Ok NOW we can do the unboxing lol the hype is over already huh OF COURSE NOT!! *laughs* (Of course it's not I did the bottom part write-up first haha uh oh fourth wall break)

Yup, this is without the usual air padding if there were more they'll only put it in a bigger box

Haha you think I need a ticket guide to go to live performances I can NEVER go even if I have the money to now?
(Well, in their defence Tokyo's cases are rising so no thanks haha)


It's just great to receive these things once in a while for the (eternal) memories

And as you have seen here, it's the direct return in my investment which is not fanclub events which I can't attend because the world's burning out there and not its online content which will cease for me end October later this year (*wink*), is Minase Inori Fanclub Newsletter "Inori Machi Diary"!! Yeah, we have seen this twice already, earlier this year which is for December, and one a couple of months ago, if you remember. As usual, I will not show everything because I love Inorin a lot so I protect those wonderful shots I paid for lol, but instead give you some insight into the stuff they do online and in this book, mostly catering to fan questions and surveys and fanart selections. Yeah yeah they can do this on social media too but why would you give her money then haha

Okay just one image just one you can see it in her artist official website I just get it on a book hehe

She said "no" to "has you ever wanted to try to live alone" lol she just wants to live with someone which is me *dabs*
("Minase-san do you want to build a home with me-" Okay haha where is the talk about her being imouto candidate?)

Wow these are so reflective I am trying real hard to take it at angle so I don't have to use this as my next profile picture lol

Also why isn't those inside the rest of the wrapping haha what

I mean, they even put the book in there, man! We will never know

So first up, literally I hesitated to buy these because I swear the photobook earlier this year did her justice, it's Waki Azumi's 1st live tour goods!! Well, mainly I was deterred by the words "photo set" because with my mediocre experience those might mean postcard or 2L size or whatever but turns out they are literal bromides so yay I shall pat myself on the back for braving the Columbia Music store and buying SIX bromides along with the pamphlet and I tell you, this was totally worth the purchase because I AM SUCH A LOVER FOR CLOSE-UPS haha you don't even know. Really, seeing Ajuju up close is... quite a sight haha why am I embarrassed

パンフレット Waki Azumi 1st LIVE -Chou Kakumeiteki Koisuru Ongakukai- Pamphlet

It's as real of a cover as it is also beautiful, and I like

Heart you too, Azumi.

"Lovely Ajuju", eh? I mean, she isn't?? Haha

Those moles on the her face indicate her popularity and also my love for her in smaller chunks hehe

Oh didn't know she was wearing those wings on her back haha probably just for this shot

Those close-ups I can never get enough of

Never thought I'll say this again, I wish I was the wall and my face smeared in pink
(On second thought she rather kiss the wall than my rough face *sob*)

"Casual Ajuju"
If this is casual her I hope there is an even more casual you at home seeing your Instagram

Yes MOAR CLOSE-UPS PLEASE
(Hehe)

Rawr~! *me faints*
(Okay do you want her dogs or do you want her to be the dog-)

Yes, shoot that arrow right through me, please, I beg you
(Hehe)

So yeah, in case you didn't notice but I'll summarize from the interview in the book, she went with two types of outfits based on "falling in love lovely Ajuju" and "falling in love casual Ajuju" but seriously, what's the difference amirite?? If it's her falling in love the target better be me lol *dabs* Okay also, which is why I said it earlier, quite a lot of A4-sized close-up shots to fill your heart to the brim and man am I already satisfied I already regret not looking at the other pamphlet first considering this one in this is younger haha ah-

Oh yes, the bromides. So, this one also has a gacha element to it and in this case it was 10 types and they sell in sets of 3. Yeah, doing some math and bracing this like a champ, I bought two sets which will make me hit the lowest chances of unique items so far (since I started early this year if you would recall), of around 30% and I'm glad I... well you can see it for yourself it's all close-ups my heart might be melting inside now hehe

And to wrap this up, I better not call her veteran because I really think I should she has been with me or I've been with her for so many years already since I started watching Anime, it's Toyosaki Aki's live concert goods! If you need an introduction to the voice behind the star of Anime "K-ON!!" and a solo artist with the highest Klassic Note Review rate till date apart from YUI you will be remembered lol, Aki-chan here can cute anything even if she is married and has a dog as a kid instead of an actual human unlike her other members in the talent agency BUT let's take a look at the theme of this book because it's the most unique we might have seen so far when it comes to pamphlets! Oh, and I bought postcards because like Mocho they are from the same talent agency and they will NEVER directly sell bromides unless I buy it with their CDs or something (which will explain those Suruga-ya runs where I buy second-hand bromides but you get the idea)

パンフレット AKI TOYOSAKI CONCERT 2021 Camel Back Hall "CBH 1st Issue" Pamphlet

See? This is quite a look-alike to an actual magazine, isn't it?

If you need some insight, she is tallest in her agency, standing at 169cm but I'm still taller haha so I don't care

Really kind of lost her appeal there when she decided to cut short her hair to this length a couple of years ago
(Yes also, the marriage news lol)

My girl when I keep her doggo away from her haha

In no particular reason do I want to show anything here besides beauty especially for her age (which we will talk about later)

Kawaii Aki-chan is kawaii, gotta give you that

Wow I feel like translating this but it's 100 items I may or may not know of so maybe not haha
(Okay easiest reference I saw is her own PS5 purchase which she did cover an unboxing of not hers in the group's YouTube channel)

In case you do not know of her, as of this book she is halfway through her thirties
(Yikes) (lol)

Her ideal routine on off days apparently lol I thought this was the real one
(Gaming for 2 hours before sleep? Isn't that too little haha)

It's her and in case you do not know of her official mascot, "Yodaremushi" which is basically named "salivating bug" haha hey it's cute though it's in all her merch

Her wild dreams from here on include of course staying in her voice actress career which I must say is still on for her, I doubt you can do a Yodaremushi Cafe but it's not impossible, but more realistic ones include singing in an outdoors live festival and voicing for museum tours

"I want to smile with you all every day" Aw that's sweet you say that to your husband too, yes? *laughs*

And just more Aki-chan because don't forget this is a fashion magazine live tour pamphlet haha

And yes she is an avid illustrator though mostly for her own merch due to her unique style
(This one is titled "MV shooting" and bottom left is probably it rained lol)

This only reminded me of the many live performance videos I've watched over the years, the seriousness of Aki-chan and her efforts to do all of these
(There's also a comic on the concept of this pamphlet of her shouting the theme and the staff be like "Eh..." Haha putting in to much effort was probably the issue)

Ah this is what they call the "another/back cover" of the magazines in Japan and I'm glad I knew what the front cover is lol

And these are just flair at this point the book is honestly so much better in production quality





Yeah if there are more issues with rendering of this page and enhancements I'll be sure to do this tomorrow morning. In front of this very PC, at home. MUAHAHAHA I know right the boss be so pissed I hear the meeting he participated with others which I was not in because work leave baby~ It went REAL well haha. Ah hey, what can I say, can't miss an opportunity to chain days off, you know. *laughs* Cya guys soon for more Entertainment News it seems, and with regards to this... my only hint for next time is end September. What will appear by then... I hear "Douki-chan" is getting a new volume so we can start from there hehe see you then

P.S.
:)
