At First Light

( Soundtrack blather )

...

Pez has the tracklist up in romanji with rough translation. Title of Higa song = The assassins from the southern island. HIGA HITMEN FIC NOW PLZ. DO WANT. (I know I was trying to write such a thing but argh, I'm getting hopelessly buried under WIPs at the moment and not finishing any of them. Maybe one day!)

What other people thought: comments from Solaas and comments from elyndys, both from seeing the same performance I did; genkischuldich's comments from a different performance.

I need to tidy my own semi-comatose ramblings on the subject up before I even think about cross-posting. *laughs*

5/8: I am no longer accepting orders. Sorry!

I'll be going to a couple of performances of Rikkaimyu (Absolute King Rikkai: 2nd Service) in August, and will be able to buy photosets for people who want it. As the tickets I have are rather on the expensive side I'm kind of doing this to recover a bit of money and help fund my habit.

I'm selling photosets for $12 per set, including postage worldwide.

Each set contains four photos and buying all the sets for a school usually gets you a bonus gift; in the past it's been things like postcards or sticker-sets, but I don't know what it will be this time (but if you order the whole set, you'll get whatever bonus there is). I also don't entirely know how buying an entire set for, say, Higa will work as there's only two characters from that school - no information I can find about this is up on the MMV website yet. The MMV website has just been updated to include a merchandise list and the bonus gift is rendered by babelfish as a "memo pad". There's one for buying all of Seigaku's sets, one for buying all of Rikkai's, and one for buying both Rokkaku and Higa's sets together. To find the merch list go to the tenimyu website and click on Q&A.

The characters in this myu are:



Pamphlets I am selling for $25 each, also including worldwide postage.

Payment
I can only accept payment by PayPal at the moment (even from the UK) as I'm already in Japan.

How to order
Comment with what you want and your PayPal address I'll send you an invoice and reply to your comment to confirm the order.

- If for any reason I can't get any goods ordered, a full refund will be given.

- Goods will be shipped from the UK, from the 16th of August onwards. How long it takes to get everything sent will depend on how much stuff I have to organise. I'll let you know when things have been shipped and depending on where you are in the world you can expect a few days to a week for goods to arrive.

(I'm not cross-posting this entry anywhere but anyone who stumbles across it is welcome to order, regardless of whether you're on my friendslist or not. If you think other people might want help ordering photosets you're also welcome to point them here. I'm just not posting it to the tenimyu community, for example, because I don't know if I can deal with the number of orders yuki_scorpio got when she did that for Rikkaimyu 1st Service.)

...are you kidding me?

Rikkai + Rokkaku + Higa in one myu?? (Well, Kite and Chinen, anyway.)

With a Kite who grew up in the US??? XD

*eyes the multiplying ?s warily*

Yes. We are getting tickets. (Not that we weren't getting tickets anyway, but... 8D)


Incidentally, on a tenuously Higa-related note, I think we're also going to Okinawa this summer. (elyndys and I, in the week before solaas arrives.) I kind of want to take the boat out there because I'm a freak about boats though it's a pretty long haul from the mainland. But one way or another we're going to try and go. :D

DL4! :D! (Spoilers, obviously. Rikkai bias, too, which I appreciate greatly. ;D )

Hmm, must be Rikkaimyu DVD time, too? Want.

I am happy that people are writing fic based off 339. Mmm. This is a good week to be a Rikkai fangirl, apparently. :)

I know I was going to say something else, too, but it seems to have slipped my mind entirely. It probably wasn't important. (She says, dooming herself to have forgotten something entirely critical.)


Nothing else is interesting. Dissertation continues. I think I am going to have nightmares about gazelle, but the less said about that the better.

General holiday update will happen later. For now...

This morning, yuki_scorpio and I went to see Rikkaimyu.

Here is the short, unspoilery, entirely incoherent version: OMG IT IS THE MOST AWESOME THING EVER AND AND OMG AM A HAPPY D1 FANGIRL AND AND AND SANAYUKI TOO AND RIKKAI ARE AWESOME AND ROKKAKU ARE FUNNY AND I LOVE THEM ALL. And I don`t miss Hyoutei. Not even slightly.

Can I go see it again yet? (We have tickets to go and see the final Tokyo performance on Christmas day. But that means an entire day before I next see it. :O And then I have to survive until the DVD comes out. Which is whole months away...)

The longer, more coherent version... well... I think it`ll take me a while to recover enough to actually be fully coherent, to be honest. The fact that I am in Tokyo, having just seen Rikkaimyu, seems utterly unreal. But here, some thoughts... ( cut for spoilers )

God, I love Rikkai.

And D1.

And, lately, Rokkaku.

solaas, the Rokkaku photosets are going to kill you. Dead. *bought Dabide's for herself and is... decidedly content with it*

*leaves post public just for kicks*
