My biggest problem with this new release is that fans who'd want to see the LOVE CONCENT tour footage have to pay up big time for that crazy expensive boxed set. That concert should get it's own separate release.
at least with Koda Kumi & Ayu the best ofs that came with the tour & PV DVDs were sorta a good deal, around 40-50 $. I don't think it's right that the hitomi box to cost over twice that much , even if it has more disks. I'm never going to able to buy the hitomi box, it's so expensive & since I'd be importing it outside EU i'd have to pay a additional 22% of added value tax on the hitomi box + customs fee making the box cost me like over 100€ which is just too much  I do think just the "peace 2xDVD" PV set is kinda tempting tho & not a bad deal. I do think it's a good feat to get into the top20 with zero promotion, considering that even the cheapest edition of this release is still a 3xCD set and not so cheap. but then again, I think almost every song off peace has been used as a themesong or commercial endorsement in something so there are lots of people potentially familiar with hitomi's music. so I think this release is more meant to cash in on casual buyers who might recognize a hitomi song from somewhere & now have a easy pick what album of hers to get. |

I've decided that I'm okay with where "peace" ends up, as long as this isn't the end.

i get my box set monday!!! YES!
im not disappointed at all...it is a good feat to debut at 6 and stay around the top twenty with absolutely no promotion...(i learned about it from wiki.theppn, calling it "best" on her albums list) Halla, is the tour footage on the DVDs of the box set the whole LOVE CONCENT concert? I really hope it is...i loved that album... |

well, my box set isnt here yet...im pretty sure it will be here tomorrow...btw, i was just reading the DVD tracklist, and i'm very displeased...
i just now found out that Kimi no Tonari, I Am, and Love 2000 aren't on the DVD...THREE OF MY FAVORITE SONGS! Weren't there ever PVs for them? I Am was one of her most succesful songs, and it didn't have a PV? I find it amazing that flow and CRA"G"Y MAMA are on the DVD, when they got shunned before...flow wasn't on SELF PORTRAIT, when it was one of her best songs, and CRA"G"Y MAMA's PV wasn't on the LOVE CONCENT DVD... for some reason i think i remember seeing a PV for Kimi no Tonari... |

^ I'm pretty sure that love2000 PV is on the DVD.
"I Am" does not have a PV, "Innocence" had the PV for the "I Am / Innocence" double A-side single. there wasn't a real PV for "kimi no tonari", I think there only was like a 60sec commercial thing for it. not a real PV. |

also, i remember reading that she said she wanted a career like Madonnas... Poppy High selling music (Like a Virgin)>Experimenting (Bedtime Story)>High Sales (Ray of Light)>Flops (American Life)>Return to prominence with Dance music (Confessions on a Dance Floor)>long period without releasing (now) sounds a lot like hitomi's career to me! some things are out of place, but oh well...hopefully both hitomi's and Madonna's long period of no new stuff ends soon... |

I was never too keen on the song Understanding but in the peace context it sounds flawless. Oh what a masterpiece. I'm impressed! Her way of singing there is kinda special. And flow. I'm totally speechless, I love this woman.

the tracklist provided by neowing/cdjapan for the 2xDVD set has Love2000 PV there. I personally don't really like that song or PV that much , love2000 is my least favorite single from her.
but wouldn't it be weird to leave her biggest hit single PV out from her single collection? I definitely like CD2 & CD3 over CD1, but I think there are some great underrated songs from H too. "Let's Play Winter" & "We are LONELY GIRL" are sorta bad, but "Progress" & "By Myself" are good. "Someday" is the first really awesome single tho. BTW isn't it a bit strange to have "BLADE RUNNER" on "peace"? I've alwayds considered as a b-side since it was on HTM ~Tiartrop fles~, tho that song was used in the series fo CMs for Aube cosmetics so I suppose it's sorta prominent song in her discography ... btw does anyone know the tracklist for the LOVE CONCENT 2006 tour?

Ah, you're right, there is LOVE 2000 on the DVD. It says so on the box cover. However they missed it on her website, that's why I thought it's not there. :/
