umm...it looks legit
I don't really know how to tell but that's what the obi looks like if that helps at all

^ Cool, okay the thing that got me thinking was that the CD was visible behind the OBI, is it just a sticker or is the OBI transparent or something... Bleh, I'm so obsessive compulsive ^ ^!

hahaha, that's okay
I would want the write thing too
It's not entirely transparent but part of it is
it doesn't feel the same as other OBIs and it's kinda weird but kinda cool :P

^ I see, are the images posted the exact same as the CD you purchased or is it as the listing states 'Limited Edition'?

Amai Yume 22nd June 2008 12:08 PM

no, they look the exact same
Unless I'm blind and am missing a small detail, they look the exact same :)

On Japanese CDs the obi isn't big enough to cover the whole back side of the case.
The CD is visible due to the case being a slim one. A lot of Ayumi's CD-only singles are like that too.
And I see the gskohouse logo... They seem to be trustworthy, although I haven't had experiences with them.
And to top it all off, the front side has a Lismo! sticker and I don't think any pirated version could bother to add that. :P

I think the CD is not a bootleg . A bootleg wouldn't come with an OBI + I have seen that squirrel sticker before in the local HMV so yup

I have the single and that is the original, but there is nothing limited/special edition about it though :P, there is only a regular edition of that single.

It has a sticker with numbers inside the case you can see from the back picture, that means it was an ex-promotional single, given out to radio stations, DJ's etc, they are not meant to be sold but people sell them all the time.

I also don't recall that Keep Tryin' was a limited edition single

not that I know of anyway
