NO MORE RULES - The 10th Official Thread
 

Yay for new thread!

The cover for No more rule is frightening!OO

lol it's

it's even way more scarier than her other covers

Yes, a new thread.

I thought I commented in here before though, was it deleted? o_O

I know weird O_O

it's great that NO MORE RULES's outta print from CDJapan

It's still up for preorder via HMV Japan - http://www.hmv.co.jp/product/detail/3510794

"This is an extremely popular item and therefore is available for up to 1 copy per customer. You are not allowed to place multiple orders for this item; please make sure you order enough/maximum quantity in one order. "

wow I saw that for the Johnny's releases too , the LE's I mean

Too bad it's out of print. -___-

not sure if there will be OS presses for NO MORE RULES :shrug

if there're , I will consider to buy it

The cover still frightens me. o_O...

And yeah, OS version, I hope they will release one.

Sony BMG S'pore did it for BEST , THE END , YES & most recently VOICE

so prob they will do it for NO MORE RULES :yes

out of print? Already?????
But but but....It isn't out again!!!!!OO

it's limited, so that's probbably why it's already out :shrug hopefully that's a good sign of people buying it.

I didn't know that it was limited copy!

I love the frightening cover!

I don't think so! It's only limited to 50,000 copies I heard... Maybe if there's extras they'll sell it overseas...

Wow, it's sold out in CDJapan already? I'm glad I pre-ordered already! I did so at HMV though.

what?.. out of print at CDJ already?! wow

I haven't pre-ordered it yet, but it's great news, really awesome for Mika ^^

and the cover looks almost evil! lol ;)

that's why I say I don't know whether Sony BMG S'pore be printing NO MORE RULES here locally or not

maybe I should call & harress them on this :laugh

oh good for you :D

lol it's prob meant to be this way I think in that I think it's done on purpose

Doesn't CDJapan sometimes put out of print, and then a few days later, put it back on as still available?

That's what I heard. o_O

^ I think that's YesAsia? Karen told me YesAsia does that. And when they put it up on sale again the price tremendously increases D:

Ahh... I see. -___- I don't like it when they do that.

I've seen it happened recently for ARASHI's Believe , KNK & also KAT-TUN's ONE DROP

CD + DVD of ONE DROP was outta print a while ago on CDJapan but it's back in stock now

but both CD + DVDs of ARASHI's are totally whipped out :thud

yeah & that's scary O_O . Hazuki told me that when YesAsia restocked all 3 Japan presses/LEs of KAT-TUN's DON'T U EVER STOP single , all the prices for each of them were selling for US$30 which's like :thud

I wondered whether will NO MORE RULES will be affected by this ? :shrug

They shouldn't have done that. -___- Tricking fans like that. :/

haha ah well *shrugs*

NO MORE RULES's release format's unique , it's prob the 1st time it's released in blu ray format ?

Really? Does that play on a DVD player or no?

I'm so behind with newer technology. XD

I have no idea too -_-

the only thing I roughly know about blu ray disc's that the contents of what's worth in a blu ray dvd can hold way much more content than a normal dvd

well, you guys are right, CDjapan just 'restock' NMR. The price is still the same, 3333yen. :)

Aw damn :grumpy Anyway Karen it's a blue-spec CD, not blu-ray DVD so it can be played in a normal CD player. The DVD is just your typical DVD xD

Maybe when it's released and the first week sales are already 50k I'll probably be jumping around the whole house with my copy in my hand :P

ooh ok great! blue-spec it is.
I was already a bit confused and worried that I couldn't play this cd haha ^^

and good that they restocked the album.. I saw this last night actually, but I wasn't too sure it was restocked, since everyone was saying it was already sold out..

but ok, that's good then :D

I wonder if they'll sell more if the demand is high enough for No More Rules...

oh

if that's the case , what's the difference between a blue spec CD & a normal album release ?

there should be something special inside the blue spec CD , if not why's it limited to 50K ? :shrug

^ Expensive to manufacture? Hahaha I tried looking it up but I don't really understand it still, people are saying it will replace the SACD? But what is that anyway?

me neither man , I have heard of SACD before but what's that all about too

I suck at remembering tech jargons

SACD

and...

Blue Spec CD

Complements of Wikipedia lol

*edit*

To be honest... regular CDs play fine to me, I don't see the need for these. But at the same time, I've never used them so I don't know for sure if they're better or not. I'm not opposed to new technology so if it is better, bring it on :)

^ thanks a lot

Blue spec CD sounds ... expensive O_O

Yet the price of this release is so reasonable, just how do they compromise? lol

Are SACD's popular in Asia? And I dunno about this blue-spec... lol. Seems expensive to me.

I hear blu-spec is mostly in Asia, I don't know about SACDs. I've seen a few but that's it...

Ahhh... I see.

I don't think I've seen any SACD's before, or maybe I have, can't remember.

But definitely no blue-spec CD's, never seen those before in stores.

I think a few Gackt albums were in SACD and Ayu's RAINBOW album was re-released or in that format... if memory serves me correctly...

no idea , I wish I know

I doubt so . If you're talking about blu ray DVDs then yes I seen quite a lot of them being sold in shops here but they're so expensive

who's buying NO MORE RULES though other than Meat Pao

:wave ME!!!! :banana2

It's my very first Mika album, I'm so excited, I want it NOW! xD;

I'm gonna buy it.. though I haven't pre-ordered it yet.

About blue -spec cd's, they were introduced just last year, so I think there aren't too many titles out yet, but I think it won't be long.
And about SACD's, I don't know how popular they are, but over here I rarely see them and maybe that's because you need a dedicated SACD player for it to play..

So blue-spec sounds better to me, since I can just keep my (old) cd/dvd players..;)

so ..but yeah, I can't wait for the release of No More Rules...with it's evil cover!! ^^

i preordered it at hmv :]

I think I'll pre-order it at YA...
yeah I know, but for me it still is cheaper.

.. as long as they don't jack up the price before the release :irked

It's not done yet, but its mika

they have a tendency to do so after stock runs out especially for Japan presses

@ WillofDusk - your drawing of Mika is to die for

^ that would really suck if they do that with this release...

and @ WillofDusk: that's so awesome! and it's soo Mika, I can totally see it ^^
you gotta show it again when you've finished it! :D

@WillofDusk: I love the picture! ^_^ You are good at drawing, definitely!

A little lost here...
What blue-ray what out of stock?

er is the red color cover truely the cover for the album?
It's kinda scary and makes me not want to buy it///

unfortunately yes the scary looking cover is for her 2nd/new compliation album NO MORE RULES

& it will be released in a special blu specs format , that's why only 50K copies are apparently will be printed

lol .. everybody thinks the cover's scary looking

well it's not..
it's just plain Evil!! :eek

;)

evil scary... whatever...

any news of os version?
If there's no more stock... then I can stay away from this evil scary looking cover

lol Sony BMG wouldn't so fast announced a SG/OS press of NO MORE RULES leh

but I think we might be getting 1 cos since they did it for VOICE recently , I don't see why they wouldn't do it for NO MORE RULES

Are you gay? If so, I want you.:love

I think the covers sexy and dark :]:luv2

I think they'll announce the sale OS version of NMR near the release date of the JP version,
just like they've done with all her other albums.

..hmmm I thought I posted this hours ago already??

yes they always tend to do that . If she's under avex it's different , they will announce the OS press release date before the Japan release date

I finally watched the GAME PV! I love the song so much, and the PV suits it so well! I think Mika's so sexy in the PV, I simply love her makeup.
But anyone noticed that she's got some kind of tattoo-ish looking thing on her chest? If you look closely.....

LOL, and once again NO MORE RULES is out of print on Cdjapan :laugh

it's outta stock on YesAsia too

Not surprising... I wonder if they'll get more :O
