"- The packaging of ayu-mi-x 4+selection releases varied by pressing: First-pressings were produced in limited amounts of unknown quantity with a colored transparent tray insert and information sticker. All later pressings of the releases removed the colored tray insert and added an OBI in lieu of an information sticker."

Yay my ayu-mi-x 4 cds were first press! I have ayu-ro mix 2 and that came in a slipcase.

yay namies Cds also slim and have an OBI...che is right this time around^^ but Boys & girls just don´t have one hehe

I'm gonna ask a stupid question but what does OBI stands for ?

[ayumisrael]

I know that ayu's CDs that come with slipcases have no OBIs - A BEST, A BALLADS, A BEST 2 both. Maybe the non first press (slipcase) have OBIs.

[thinkingoutloud89]

OBI comes from the thing geisha put around theri waist as the alst part...the thing which holds everything together (sry I forgot the englisch word)

[extepan]

indeed most do, the exceptions are the 8cm cds, boys and girls, kanariya, fly high, ayu-mi-x II and ayu-mi-x III, a song is born

i think ayu-ro-mix I & II don't have obis either

I do know what an OBI is , it's that extra piece of paper that you can remove easily from the side of the CD casing

but what does OBI stands for ?

Haha like the person said.. it's the sash they wear with kimonos and martial arts uniforms. That sash is called an obi, so they call the cd thing an obi too, since you wrap it on the cd.

Yes. I had seen a copy of A BEST a while back that didn't come with the slipcase anymore and it had an obi (and it was a Japan Ver.)

Yeah! So I think that in ayu's case if there is a slipcase there won't be an OBI but if there isn't so there will be an OBI...
I think that the 8cm singles came in slipcases didn't they? maybe because of that they have no OBIs... there ones who don't come with both have no OBI for no reason I guess =P ...

[che0173]

no, 8cm's didn't come in slip cases, they came in weird paper/cardboard cases
lols
and ummm, yeaaa i bought A BEST from Yesasia i think... and it didn't have a slip case, but had an OBI XD

[Deneb]

slip case, nah, 8cms are like notepads or sandwich lol a best has slip case for 1st press and os version... hehe normal jp version have obi
