omg HYDE D: D: D: D: D: D:

gosh it's super expensive...

^ it's book with 96 pages, 13(?) posters and t-shirt. not very expensive

is it a must to buy the book ? :shrug

to me I don't think so & face it , it's just another way of hyde in cashing in HALLOWEEN JUNKY ORCHESTRA's name

Even if I were to buy it , by the time I receive it in Jan/Feb 2013 , Halloween would have been over by then which doesn't make it very all that & sorry not everyone can afford a 7,160 Yen priced book so easily as per say

There's a difference between a want & a need . For my case , I can live without this book

^ Exactly. I mean maybe the price is OK but I don't really need the book and it doesn't make sense have it in January or February... moreover, I like a lot of this artists on the HJO, but I only love Anna enough and it's expensive if you're only interested in her pages, so...

I like/listen to quite a lot of artistes already before they were in HJO but it doesn't mean I have to buy everything if not anything relating to them , it doesn't make any sense to me in any single bit

Price is 1 thing but getting this book next Jan/Feb which's already way pass Halloween seems a bit ... stupid if not lame

And also like what you said , if you only support 1 artiste in HJO , then paying 7,160 Yen for Anna alone seems ridiculous . I rather you use that same amount of $ to buy her future releases , it's more worthwhile than buying the book :x

EEK!!! This scares me :thud

uh what you expect ? Anna portrayed Medusa in HALLOWEEN JUNKY ORCHESTRA :o

That's of my fave shots from the HALLOWEEN PARTY booklet . Anna's a model so she knows how to pose/work in front of the camera :cool

I didn't say it here but yesterday was Anna's 10th Anniversary since she debuted in music with Spin Aqua's first single "UNCHAINED" ♥ HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!!!

Tsuchiya Anna receives the ‘Fur Of The Year’

http://static.tokyohive.com/wp-conte...aanna_fur1.jpg

http://www.tokyohive.com/2012/11/tsu...r-of-the-year/

Pretty *_*

hoho :P

you thought that 7,160 is too expensive ) CDJapan has other price - 9,000
http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview....=NEOBK-1384957

the extra cost is probably a markup price that CDJapan charges since by right , the book cost 7,160 Yen (6,660 Yen for the book + 500 Yen for domestic shipping within Japan)

But meh I'm not buying it anyway , don't seem worth it to me & besides I'm tied up with buying concert goods from this month til Jan 2013 lmao

"Fur of the Year" picture is this one:

http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-wXiEs42TLk...s/s1600/08.JPG

The one you posted is at LEONARD's show. Both events were the same day :)

Watch Anna's live on Saturday Night Live JPN this saturday here: http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XNDc2NDYxNTIw.html

She performed Brave Vibration (min 27:20) Melt in to Blue (min 68:27, cover of Miho Asahi's song), and at the end, like in 85:35 or something she acts like Ayu with an acuted voice for a few seconds lol

BTW, if you are interested, here's the info for ANNA'S 29th BIRTHDAY PROJECT, we're going to send her a photobook! (a real book, not an ebook like last year) http://annatsuchiyacommunity.forumfree.it/?t=63975709

^Oh, that's cute! I think I will also enter! ^-^

Ugh sorry, my fault... Melt in to Blue is not a cover... it's Anna's new song! she said it on her blog:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1_f1x59Owo

so... NEW ALBUM?
Sorry but I just can think of new album... and this MUST be the lead single!

a new album would be wonderful!

I'd say she will release it on March... even if it's an album or just a single. But it's rare on her to release something on January/February

OMG I just hope she says something official soon!! I'm going to die! XD

STEP IN TO THE NEW WORLD! peaked at #50 in the 1st week , selling 1,255 copies

http://www.oricon.co.jp/rank/js/w/2013-04-29/more/6/

wow that was... harsh. This single is not very strong, I must say, but that is too much xD

- avex barely promoted the single
- no B-sides in the single even though the A-side is quite fun sounding
- just 1 edition this time round unlike 2 editions

^ Actually, Anna and KISHIDAN will be tomorrow promoting the single at Music Dragon TV show, they will appear in three magazines (Popsister, Rolling Stone, and other one I can't remember), and they already appeared on a TV show doing an interview.

But I guess the promotion is late this time

YesAsia's description of STEP IN TO THE NEW WORLD !

If you're chinese, you will be lucky because you can watch Anna's STEP IN TO THE NEW WORLD! live on Music Dragon http://static.youku.com/v1.0.0324/v/...%3D%26type%3D0

Please, if someone who's able to watch can upload it again... It's only available for chinese people

There is a new release currently listed on CDJapan and Amazon.co.jp with a release date of 7/17 but both websites classify it differently (CDJapan says it's a single while Amazon Japan has it listed as a mini album). It only comes in CD+DVD format. There aren't many details on CDJapan about it but Amazon has the following information about the release:

According to a rough translation by Google Translate, the CD will have 6 songs, including live recordings and the DVD will have a music video + live footage that will last 25 minutes! It also comes with a first press bonus which will be announced at a later time!

Preorder Links:
TBA CD+DVD

mini album? Wow that is unexpected... I just hope there are new songs in there and not the previous single ones...

CDJapan states it as an EP under the description

Tsuchiya Anna's leading role in stage play "Chikai kiseki no Singer"

2013年5月21日に発表いたしました土屋アンナ主演 舞台「誓い～奇跡のシンガー」制作発表のご案内の内容に一部誤りがございましたので、下記の通り訂正の上、 再度配信させていただきます。
[Apology and correction] Information on Tsuchiya Anna’s leading role in “Chikai Kiseki no Singer”

Since there is a mistake in the previous annoucement made about Tsuchiya Anna’s leading role in the stage play “Chikai Kiseki no Singer”, here is a correction below.

[All in all, they kept writing “worst singer in Japan” instead of “best”. Also, the performance dates are from August the 6th to the 9th and not June 10th 2013.]

Miraculous collaboration between the best-seller inspired by a true story and singer/actress Tsuchiya Anna! Stage performances announced for August 2013.

It’s not just music or musical theater. Soul-stirring singing, dream and love. It leads to excitement and tears with a mix of complex human events.
Human entertainment.

[STORY]
Despite the rainy days and the snowy night, the street singer Asako keeps singing in her wheelchair.
She pursued the dream she had made to her mother, without being discourage by an incurable disease of unknown cause.
One day, a man claiming to be a stakeholder from a music label gave her his support.
“There is something soul-stirring in your voice. But you cannot go professional for the moment. You will have to go over the basics again.”
This man, Miyata, offered her to make her professional debut.
It were rays of hope that began shining for Asako.

Anna has dark hair now!!

I can imagine her new mini album cover with this hair... She looks so beautiful! ;A; I hope that in one of those new MVs or covers Anna will have this hair

Just wanted to share with you my excitement about Anna's new hair LOL

didn't see anyone mention it here yet, but the EP release has been cancelled now.

Such a pity

Maybe this will change to her releasing a new album instead ? She should cos it has been 3 years since RULE was released

Thank you for letting us know that it's been cancelled. My order status on CDJapan hasn't changed to reflect the cancellation so I had no idea until you mentioned it and checked the site myself. I just sent them an email to cancel the order.

As Karen said, hopefully she will just release a new studio album in replacement of this EP. It's been a long time since RULE and at this point, I'd rather have an album instead. I just hope that she includes the live footage that was planned for this release on her next release.

Frankly Anna has enough singles to back up a new album at this point in time

especially if she plans to include all the 3 songs in UNCHAINED GIRL , Switch On! , Voyagers & maybe STEP IN TO THE NEW WORLD! , it will be 6 single tracks in an album

Anna recorded a new PV a few days ago! :3

http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-BwwqZAJgSU.../s1600/199.jpg

So I'm sure we're gonna get a new release anyway soon

By the way, in case you don't know Anna will be a live guest at Tokyo Crazy Kawaii Paris and I'm going!
I'm so excited!!! Anna is coming to Europe again (*^^*)
Here you have all the info --> http://hiyakunorules.tumblr.com/post...-anna-the-lady
Tickets are already available here --> http://www.avosbillets.com/page/1326...y-kawaii-paris

pretty makeup and super long hair, me likes ♥
I'll try to go as well, it should be possible with my schedule but hard to know so far from the date.. >_<

Mini Album is not cancelled, just postponed :) http://anna-tsuchiya.com/media/16888317
There's no new release date though, but staff said they will announce it soon.

Special collaboration single HALLOWEEN PARTY to get (re)released on 16th Oct

Oh hyde what have you done ?!?! I can't believe that HALLOWEEN JUNKY ORCHESTRA will be (re)releasing HALLOWEEN PARTY this year .

Last year , the single was released on 17th Oct & this time round , it has happened again , in line with Halloween coming real soon .

The lineup of great musicians participating in HALLOWEEN PARTY is exactly the same group of folks :

HYDE (VAMPS) / Acid Black Cherry / DAIGO (BREAKERZ) / kyo (D'ERLANGER) / Tommy february6 / Tommy heavenly6 / Tatsurō (MUCC) / Tsuchiya Anna / Aoki Ryuji / K.A.Z (VAMPS) / Hitsugi (Nightmare) / Aki (SID) / RINA (SCANDAL) / Wakeshima Kanon

Tracklist wise , a comparison between last year's & this year's

CD Tracklist ::

2012 - Old

01. HALLOWEEN PARTY (作詞・作曲：HYDE) ; written & composed by HYDE
02. Penalty Waltz (作曲：HYDE) ; composed by HYDE

2013 - New

01. HALLOWEEN PARTY　(作詞・作曲：HYDE) ; written & composed by HYDE
02. Penalty Waltz　(作曲：HYDE) ; composed by HYDE
03. HALLOWEEN PARTY -feat. HYDEs-　(作詞・作曲：HYDE) ; written & composed by HYDE

Wow at HALLOWEEN PARTY -feat. HYDEs- so does this mean HYDE will be the only 1 singing in the song ? o_o

DVD Tracklist ::

2012 - Old

01. HALLOWEEN PARTY PV

2013 - New

01. HALLOWEEN PARTY PV
02. HALLOWEEN PARTY -feat. HYDEs-PV
03. HALLOWEEN PARTY PV MAKING

This time round , the DVD contents is more 'meatier' & the (re)release of HALLOWEEN PARTY for this year will be only in a standard CD + DVD edition , unlike last year where it was released in a regular & limited CD + DVD editions .

Is it me or does the whole thing feels like an eerie dejavu feeling of L'Arc~en~Ciel re-releasing Hurry Xmas 4 times in a row ? D: (2007 , 2008 , 2009 & 2010)

Somehow or another I'm quite tempted to get this =___= as I already have the CD + DVD limited edition of HALLOWEEN PARTY but ugh damn you hyde xD

I just hope at most the song will be sung differently & there will be a new PV for HALLOWEEN PARTY . If not I will be so pissed ~_~

http://natalie.mu/music/news/98240
http://www.barks.jp/news/?id=1000093845

^Eh!?!?!? Why are they doing that, it's all nonsense at least for me o_o

Just listened to the song. I didn't even know about its existence. It's not bad, I have to say. :P
But Penalty Waltz is insane.. :laugh

Anna has a new song named "Up To You" and it's soooooo beautiful!!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...&v=cLC9Pdx9-Tc

The video is a special report of Anna at Fukushima. She went there on August 12th, she visited the affected areas and a special centre for children who are victims of the 2011 earthquake and lost their parents. Also, on August 25th Fukushima's TV channel 24hour Television broadcasted a special 24 hours program where Anna made a live. As you can see, Anna sang this new song "Up To You" and "Voyagers".

The new song is really beautiful and touching, same as "Melt into Blue" (for those who don't know that song, it's a new song Anna sang where she was the special guest of Saturday Night Live show last year and you can hear it here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9DdwNDTo_HY). Anna says in the video that she wrote both Melt into Blue and Up To You inspired by Fukushima victims.

Anna, you have new songs and 4 singles already released, now release a f* new album. Please :)

Speaking of this re-release of HALLOWEEN PARTY, I think it's a nonsense D:

^ OMG
I need this in HQ now!!

to cash in simply since Halloween is coming real soon

it's the same on why L'arc has re-released Hurry Xmas 3 times in a row as the original song was 1st released in 2007

re-releasing it from 2008-2010 feels so stupid to me :x

anyway from what I've seen on HMV Japan's , it looks like the 1st 2 tracks are the same as last year's , except that they just added in a hyde version of HALLOWEEN PARTY & that goes for his solo version of the PV + making for last year's PV :x

somehow I don't think I will get this single as I already have the CD + DVD LE for it :no

Anna told Parasite Scene website on an exclusive interview that she's recording many new songs and preparing a new release!

Here is the link to the interview (French) http://www.parasite-scene.com/2013/0...-tsuchiya.html
