D: D: D:

wow she looks very different from the image that she used to portray in still doll , Suna no Oshiro & let alone in Shinshoku Dolce

^That picture still creeps me out....

yeah it does D:

I think Mana is also in Lady Gaga mode too lol & hopefully that's a wig on Kanon

it will be strange to see her chopping all of her long hair for this black bob style hairdo

wow Kanon looks awesome :D

I love how she looks in that picture :yes.

I love the dress but I don't like the chicken and roses around her neck :no ... and the wig :no


EDIT: BALLAD initiate because of this post.

Didn't she design that costume for that Hellween concert performance she did? And yes, that is most definitely a wig. :)

Love the costume! I thought she was Ai Otsuka from the 360 PV for a moment though haha. The colors are great and the eye makeup suits her very well. She's got some pretty intense vibes with that look haha.

The new song sounds good. But the preview is really low quality

New album

Shoujo Shikake no Libretto (少女仕掛けのリブレット) 7/28

http://www.kanonweb.jp/main.html

Oh and side note. Her website design is totally awesome.

OMG 7/28!!!
I'm so happy!!!

:weep :weep :weep :weep :weep :weep

finally a new album has bear fruit & I have to agree with you Bryan , her website layout's fantastic

Finally!

YEESSSS!!! Finally.

omg serious i can't wait!!!!

SO. HAPPY. RIGHT. NOW.

:thud:thud:thud:thud:thud:thud

Yep but I can't get the Kanon's pic with firefox T_T
Should do a printscreen

she missed her promise to have her album in spring :mad

omg :weep This totally made me day!

Is it 7/28 already????

@Seb - LOL :laugh but oui dude , better late than never D:

I really hope the tracklist for Shoujo Shikake no Libretto will be solid & it's worth the wait if not I will skin someone alive :innocent

What does "Shoujo Shikake no Libretto" mean?
(oke well I know that Shoujo = girl or beautiful girl :yes and Libretto? Liberty? Freedom? something like that?)

yeah probably so Kris

oh I realised that Kanon seems to like the alphabet S o_O

Shinshoku Dolce & then now Shoujo Shikake no Libretto :laugh xD

Shoujo Shikake no Libretto translation:

Google Translation: Libretto work girl
Babel Fish: Liberetto of girl setting up [Babel fish translates リブレット [Liberetto] as Riburetsuto)

Not very helpful either :laugh

and Still doll and Suna no Oshiro :P

YES! YES! YES!!!! :banana1

Finally! :thud So...no single before the album?

^ doesn't look like there will be any single included in Shoujo Shikake no Libretto , Temmy since the release date is already confirmed on Kanon's website

Well, at least we get a lot of new songs :D.

lol yeah & this has officially stop the guessing game on when she will release her new album too x)

I'm assuming nothing much will change musically but I'm ready to be surprised , you heard me Mana xD :laugh

I'm happy, new music, yay!!

Woot, yes! :D

Actually, from what's been reported, Mana isn't playing much a role in her new album. Kanon herself is actually branching out and doing a lot of it, which would help explain the long wait for the album since it would be her first time doing all of that. :)

I'm so excited about her new album! I read about the official announcement yesterday. Gotta go see her new website layout now!

^ oh ....

so most probably in Shoujo Shikake no Libretto , Kanon's doing both composing/writing this time round since for her still doll & Suna no Oshiro singles & Shinshoku Dolce album , it's Mana that composed her material while she does the writing

I'm hoping her new album will be better than Shinshoku Dolce. I really like her music style but it definitely needed some fine tuning.

I'm curious to know how many tracks will be included in Shoujo Shikake no Libretto

also since taskinillusion mentioned that this time round Mana is taking a back seat , composing wise , I hope to see Kanon's name in both writing/composing credits for her new album :)

I want a tracklist :yatta

I want some song previews so I can decide if I want to preorder :D

^ :yes I like that idea better. xD

This is now being reported:

I hope there's an OS press.....probably not.

^thanks 4 the info, at least a new pv

thanks for the update Bryan & no she didn't had an OS press for Shinshoku Dolce ;__;

but great , at least 少女仕掛けのリブレット～storytelling by solita～ is getting a PV :)

EDIT

Links are FINALLY up to preorder Lolita Jikake no Libretto ~LOLITAWORK LIBRETTO~ :D

HMV Japan

CD - http://www.hmv.co.jp/en/product/detail/3840608

CD + DVD - http://www.hmv.co.jp/en/product/detail/3840607

CDJapan haven't updated their site on this yet

this booklet in question , will it be available for both editions 1st press wise ? cos I'm a bit lost on this

Yay~ Thanks guys for the updates! I love her website layout, the drawn key is really cute.

Excited for PV~~~~!

i can't wait omg..i waited too long...too long!!

*Pre-ordered*

:D

O.O oh nice a booklet can't wait to see pics.

Finally our waiting has been rewarded :thud ....

Does it sound really selfish to say: "ABOUT TIME!"??

I find it strange that CDJapan hasn't updated their site with preorder links for Lolita Jikake no Libretto ~LOLITAWORK LIBRETTO~ o_O

no matter , I'm going to get it from HMV Japan in due time :)

I'm super anxious for the PV!

Links are also up to preorder 少女仕掛けのリブレット ~LOLITAWORK LIBRETTO~ on Amazon Japan

CD - http://www.amazon.co.jp/%E5%B0%91%E5...5198093&sr=8-9

CD + DVD - http://www.amazon.co.jp/%E5%B0%91%E5...5198093&sr=8-3

CDJapan & YesAsia , not yet but hopefully soon

according to HMV Japan , 少女仕掛けのリブレット ~LOLITAWORK LIBRETTO~ will contain 13 songs in total

Also other than Toumei no Kagi , I'm assuming this's another song that will be in the album

it's called Otome no March

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbppO0-_ZLE

I have a feeling this might be the opening intro piece for the album , like for the case of sweet ticket

OMG. That's the song that was playing on her website lol. I really like it!

oh haha xD

her wikipage put that Otome no March was released digitally this year on 16th Jan while for Toumei no Kagi , it was released last Sept 16th

then again wiki's wiki , that piece of info supplied might be real or fake

I'm confused is the song called Tomei no Kagi or Otome no March? D:

the one that I posted the YouTube link of , it's Otome no March

it's only a preview . It's not like Toumei no Kagi where the full version of the song's already made available on YouTube

^Ah I see :yes Thank you so much.

So does anyone have a HQ version of Tomei no Kagi?

I really like otome no march :yes.

Sounds great, i can't wait

I love Otome no March! It's so elegant and gentle. It seems like the new album is just a continuation of her previous sound, although with more of an emphasis on the orchestra part than the electronic?

the YouTube link for Otome no March ... it's just a preview for now so it's hard to say if that's going to be the opening track or will it be a full song

hopefully material for 少女仕掛けのリブレット ~LOLITAWORK LIBRETTO~ will be less darker of sorts

LOL. I wouldn't mind darker. I just want something that feels more finished.

少女仕掛けのリブレット ~LOLITAWORK LIBRETTO~ is up for preorder on YesAsia

CD - http://www.yesasia.com/global/shojo-...0-en/info.html

CD + DVD - http://www.yesasia.com/global/shojo-...0-en/info.html

US$43.25 for the CD + DVD limited edition :dead2

:tired *prays harder for OS.

Shinshoku Dolce didn't have an OS press so I'm not surprised if 少女仕掛けのリブレット ~LOLITAWORK LIBRETTO~ is not going to get 1 X_X

I want to see some covers now. Or hear some previews.

:innocent I'm greedy. I can't help it...

links are finally up to preorder 少女仕掛けのリブレット ~LOLITAWORK LIBRETTO~ on CDJapan

i need a bigger cover to determine better lol.
the white cello <3

omg :weep I want to cry now!
The cover is amazing.

Could someone translate the song titles?

The Kanon's album will be release the 1/07 @ JE in France and the 7/07 in all France
They talk about the last JE (where we had showcase and signs)!
they say she write all the lyrics ( = paroles in french) & many compositions and the album is more personnal thn the first one

nothing really interessant except the release day for us, the french <3

omg! Why only release it in Japan and France????
Not in the rest of Europe...

that's just mean :weep

it's better than not seeing it released in the 1st place , Kris X_X

cos it's quite a feat to wait close to 1 1/2 years for her new album to drop & mind you , she didn't release any physical singles prior to 少女仕掛けのリブレット ~LOLITAWORK LIBRETTO~ >_<

omg omg at the Japan expo!!!!
but... I won't go to the japan expo T_T I want to go to it but I don't have money enough. Paris is so expensive T_T
the cover is really so nice. *.*

Don't worry! From what I've seen so far a release in either France or Germany means we'll be able to get it as well. I think I saw Shinsoku Dolce on bol.com ; )

rough translation of http://www.journaldujapon.com/2010/0...bi-record.html with thanks to my buddy x-megumi-x

Wow, I love the cover! :D

She's supposed to look like a doll on the cover right? I assume so by looking at her legs...:laugh Love the white cello!

The tracklist sounds amazing! :heart Definitely looking forward to it!

i like the cover a lot. not sure about love. theres something getting me. but i cant wait for this. . .ah i get to practice my french again

THANKS!!!!!!11:luv2:luv2

seems that a poster's given if you preorder your copy of 少女仕掛けのリブレット ~LOLITAWORK LIBRETTO~ via HMV Japan , be it whether the CD only or CD + DVD

CD - http://www.hmv.co.jp/en/product/detail/3840608

CD + DVD - http://www.hmv.co.jp/en/product/detail/3840607

CDJapan doesn't seem to have this at their end hmm

Bleh, well, I think the best we can do is (pre)order from YesAsia or CDjapan since Asian cds always take 29472691239184927 weeks to arrive if you order from bol.com ...
But thanks for the tip :D

:roflmao Valley of Fruit? omg :laugh That is awesome.

How about YesAsia? :lech

YesAsia never mention anything about a poster being given away , Kris ._.

I can email them about it though if you want haha & I just preordered my copy though HMV Japan ehehehe

I initally wanted to get the CD only but the booklet which's only available in the CD + DVD limited edition , that was the carrot which's dangling in front of me , not so much of the poster xD

good news , both editions of 少女仕掛けのリブレット ~LOLITAWORK LIBRETTO~ will come with a poster for a 1st press item on CDJapan

CD - http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=DFCL-1660

CD + DVD - http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=DFCL-1658

I don't know for YesAsia's case but hopefully they can get back to me on this soon

Ok YesAsia replied back to me & no poster at their end will be given away for both editions of the album >_>

We need like, previews now.

lol yeah & also covers too

I suspect the cover that was posted of the album , that's for the CD only

I don't know if the same pic will be used for both editions O_O

i don't think same pics will be used for cd and cd+dvd...
omg i love the titles so much!~

^ lol I hope so cos Shinshoku Dolce have 2 different covers

anyway the content's more important for me xD . If there're great covers & beautiful CD sleeves artwork , they're bonus items :)

can someone please translate this event with kanon? =3
