For some reason Amazon JP ‘no longer ships to my address’ products that just months ago would be shipped! Seriously, like I literally got TGS’s Special Edition for Mille Fuille, their last single, with that A4 photobook just fine but now it is suddenly not possible? Some movies too I can’t seem to be able to get, like, what even Amazon?!

But then I remembered that I there are other options, options that I already hold an account for, like HMV and so I decided to drop by. Queue my surprise that not only do they ship said items to my address, and not only are they even cheaper than Amazon (I kid you not!) but they also beat Amazon’s Priority shipping speed!

I am sitting here right now, baffled, wondering why I have been so focused on Amazon that I failed to give HMV my money. Now that I remember, I think it had to do with the Fedex thing, which I think is already resolved, where they brought goods to your door but asked for money before you could get them, like, take care of that business before you come to my door, seriously!

Now though it is smooth sailing apparently and from other things that happened while I was on HMV JP, I am seriously debating on cutting off my relationship with Amazon. I mean, when I was ordering NGT’s first single (Like I could miss it for the world), they had options of buying a set that has towels and muffler (which I ordered, duh). Good luck getting that deal on Amazon and even getting it to ship to your country!

Seriously, if they had the NGT NIII Party LIVE Bluray, I would be married to HMV right this moment!

Why do companies turn to shit when they get big? I don’t get it!

Anyway, this time around I got my self X21’s first album (with PVs and a LIVE in Blu-ray goodness), Idol Renaissance’s 4th Live in Zepp DiverCity on Blu-ray and Tokyo Girl’s Style’s PreDawn SE CD with another A4 photobook.

Yes, I am an Idol Renaissance fan, already even have a ship (see below) and if you are not following them on YouTube, get to it! Their’s is the 2nd best Idol management (next to TGS of course). Seriously they even give us these pairing videos. for example, my ship (KoyoMai – Koyoi x Maina) is already on Vol.8. They also have another group AIS, which is almost similar and kind of the Imouto of Renaissance and you bet, I have a ship there already as well in Serena (Sera x Rena).

Can’t wait to see Renaissance’s LIVE in glorious Full HD. Their YouTube short Live videos are so good! Anyway, over for some teaser pics of KoyoMai…
