Kalafina ~ Kimi no Gin no Niwa - listed

Just got home and really sleepy but thought I would write this up quickly and then go to bed. :)

It was previously announced the the Kalafina will be singing one of the theme songs for the Mahou Shoujo Madoka ~ Rebellion movie.  The 3rd movie is scheduled to screen in Japan on the 26th Oct and if all goes well, I will watch this movie in Japan. :)

Anyway, the song is titled Kimi no Gin no Niwa and the single is scheduled for a 6th Nov release as recently announced.  CDJapan just listed all 4 versions of this release.

Please do buy them if you can afford it... I'm going to place my order before I go to bed... and I think this time I will just get all 4 releases, the DVD version and the RE version too  I think I'm becoming a bigger and bigger fan with each Kajiura Yuki / FictionJunction and Kalafina release. :P

Here are the links to the product pages on CDJapan:

Kimi no Gin no Niwa Limited Edition w/Blu-ray (BD will contain the PV of the theme song)
Kimi no Gin no Niwa Limited Edition w/DVD (DVD will contain the PV of the theme song)
Kimi no Gin no Niwa Anime Limited Edition (limited time release, till Feb 2014)
Kimi no Gin no Niwa Regular Edition

According to the listing on CDJapan's pages, the Precious Memories card and the digipak illustration will only be for the Anime Edition.

And here are the rest of my photos of my friend's and my pre-order ticket and the clear folder freebie we received for pre-ordering the tickets.  I had asked one of my friends who traveled to Japan in July to buy these tickets for us. :)



The paper they used to print the flyer is actually kind of nice.  I'm glad my friend brought it back for me too. :)

K... that's if for now... time to go order and then sleep. :)

Good night. :)

Kalafina Live Tour 2013 "Consolation Special Final" DVD / BD release date announced

We also now have a release date for the DVD / BD release of the August 4th Live that was announced some time ago.  This release is now scheduled for the 11th Dec. (source)  That's all the news we have for this release so far.

Sounds like it would be a busy 4th quarter for Kalafina, as well as, a good 4th quarter for fans who live in Japan. 

I'm sure that there will be a flurry of promotional activities for fans... too bad... too bad I'm locked into travelling in the later two weeks of October.  If any lives or events occur outside of the time when I am scheduled to be in Tokyo... I will not be able to attend. :'(  I have 3 other people with me and they would kill me if I change our plans drastically.

Ah well... at least they are releasing this on BD... so I am pretty happy about that already. :)

K... need to grab a quick lunch... starving and need to rush a shot for today.

cheers :)

Kalafina ~ Mahou Shoujo Madoka Hangyaku no Monogatari CD single announced

FINALLY... I have been waiting and waiting for this announce!!  :)  Sony has also announced that the theme song for movie 3 will be released. (source)

The single will be released on the 6th Nov and the title of the song will be "Kimi no Gin no Niwa" (君の銀の庭) which I guess sort of translates into "Your Silver Garden" (... my translation's kind of literal... :P )

Looks like there will be the usual 4 versions.  There will be 3 limited editions and 1 regular edition.   One will come with a BD, another with a DVD, one more LE will be the Anime version and the final version will be the RE.

I think they are also saying that the Anime version will come in a digipak with an anime illustration.  Also, a Precious Memories Mahou Shoujo Madoka PR card (Kalafina) will also be included with these singles.

The announce came with this illustration attached to it but I don't think that that's what the Precious Memories card will look like. :)

K.... one more announce then a quick lunch. :)  Lots of work today...

Kalafina ~ Alleluia - will include tracks from the 2012 Christmas Live :)

I'm currently at work... going to try and speed thru' this during lunch hr.

Sony Music made 3 announcements about Kalafina today.  :)

First up, they have released more info about the Alleluia single. (source)  And it's good stuff for us fans because they will be including FOUR tracks from the 2012 Christmas Live. 

Yay!! Because most fans, especially those of us who do not reside in Japan, will never be able to hear these versions unless they are release on CD or digitally.   I am super happy about that. :)

Two of these tracks will be on the RE release and two more on the LE release.  So if you want all 4 tracks, you'll have to get both singles.

Aside from the title song for the single, the B-side release is called "dolce".  I don't know if it features in Kara no Kyoukai: Mirai Fukuin but I'm thinking it's possibly an insert song?

Regular Edition (SECL-1390)
1. Alleluia
2. dolce
3. seventh heaven 〜2012 Christmas LIVE ver.
4. snow falling 〜2012 Christmas LIVE ver.

Limited Edition (SECL-1391)
1. Alleluia
2. dolce
3. fairytale 〜2012 Christmas LIVE ver.
4. 君が光に変えて行く 〜2012 Christmas LIVE ver.

Included in these releases will be a Kara no Kyoukai special booklet and an illustrated "wide cap"... whatever that is. :P

As usual.... please buy these releases to support both Kajiura Yuki and Kalafina if you can afford it.  (list to CDJapan are above.) :)

Alright... next piece of news in a bit. :)

Kara no Kyoukai ~ Mirai Fukuin 2nd CM

website link

For those of us who are also Kara no Kyoukai fans.   I'm not sure how many are aware that the second CM began streaming on the official website a couple of days ago.

Scroll down to view it. :)

That's it from me... good night. :)

Kalafina Consolation Live Goods now online

webstore link

Been really busy at work... lots of OT and lots of weekend work... and need to do some tutorials in preparation for the next show... so am very busy again... hence, have been forced to neglect the blog somewhat. :(

But I do keep taps on Kajiura Yuki, FictionJunction and Kalafina's movements. :)

I've been checking the Spacecraft webstore almost daily for a while now because I have been really wanting to go do some retail therapy.  I don't know when they updated their webstore but if it wasn't today, it was probably yesterday.  Lots of the Consolation Live Good are now available online.  YAY!!!

I just made an order using a proxy service instead of troubling my friend again.  This order is going to be quite hefty as I ordered the Live pamphlet, the posters, the photo book and 2 other items for a friend.  Also, I intend on asking my friend to order the Memorial Booklet from the members only section so I just didn't feel it was right to make my friend spend so much and wait for me to arrive in October with the cash.  I already owe her for other items I had asked her to purchase earlier in the year.

I really like some of the t-shirts too but I can't afford so many things and I decided that I rather have the pamphlets etc because I already have quite a few of their t-shirts.  A lot of the t-shirts sold out within hours of me first seeing them online.  Good thing I had already made up my mind to stay away from the t-shirts. :)

I will be travelling to Japan in October, so there will be a ton of unboxing posts after that. :D  My Mahou Shoujo Madoka BD with the deskmat is with one of my friends and I will also carry back my Kalafina Alleluia single and if they release the BD of the Consolation Live while I am in Japan, I'll carry that back too. :D

Heh heh... I love retail therapy. :D
