I've been dying for some more Yuzo Koshiro stuff for ages, and now we get 2 releases on the same day, with this and Sekaiju no Meikyuu. I wasn't expecting a soundtrack for this so soon either, but you won't see or hear me complaining. March is going to put a huge dent in my bank account lol.

As far as PV goes, I've been wondering about that too. If someone could shed some light, that'd be great.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Exclusive at vgmworld ?? 3650 yen when PV says 2625 on gmronline ?......

Yeah, it's a VGMWorld exclusive. Konamistyle releases aren't sold outside of Japan, so neither CDJ or AmazonJP will be carrying it. I hate how VGMWorld jacks up their prices. Despite that, I've ordered it anyway.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Yeah, you're right. I know that. If they sold everything at the reg. retail value, they wouldn't be able to make any kind of profit. I understand that completely. But, as someone that imports a lot of albums (which is expensive to begin with), it's frustrating sometimes to have to pay an extra 1,000+ yen to get an album because a publisher won't sell outside of Japan.

How ya doing, buddy?

Oh, I'm grateful too. Matter of fact, when I first saw the album on GMR, I e-mailed Kahori and asked her if she would be able to carry it, as well as the new Atelier album. She said she would be carrying Portrait of Ruin but didn't know about Atelier.

But yeah, I'm eternally grateful for the service her and her staff provides. I hope my previous posts didn't imply I was saying otherwise.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Thanks for the tip, cubed, but I think I'll stick with VGMWorld this time around since I've already ordered it there. After shipping, the cost would be around the same as VGMWorld's. Glad to see that it's not exclusive, though.

How ya doing, buddy?
