I hoped it to be oricon

Like cutieismylife and Karen already said, it's the same magazine. They changed the name some time ago, but I (and most others it seems) still use Oricon Style, cause people know that name.

I mean. The best CD has more track, the best PVs outshine the studio's by numbers, the CD+chaku uta is in fact the best with the option to get a code to get chaku utas of the studio album, if not just "trash" it somewhere or something. The covers are connected to BEST ~second session~ and there's no UNIVERSE theme, it's mainly a BEST ~third hello UNIVERSE is here as well~.
And it's being more commercialised as a best, besides Can We Go Back the rest of the promotion goes for songs like ai no uta, Moong Crying and the populars, so yeah.

The studio album sounds good though, I just wished she would release it separetely that it would have it's own theme, more new PVs and it's own promotion with different songs besides Can We Go Back (and best album's songs).

I don't get you guys sometimes. With Kingdom, where all songs have a own PV, everyone was saying: "eh, how cheap looking some of those are!" and now with UNIVERSE where the PVs are much more high budget and because of that we're just getting 2 new PVs, you're complaining as well!
I do prefer better PVs over quantity any time. And just a sidenote, if you doesn't count the Anime PVs, Namie also just had three new PVs for PAST<FUTURE.

But it's true that they gave the best more weight in this release. But why not? It's her 10th anniversary. I don't like the fact, that we're not getting a seperate theme for UNIVERSE though, but we can't change it.

And UNIVERSE does has its own promotion. She already sang You're So Beautiful two times on TV, Stay one time. Also You're So Beautiful was already realeased on recochoku this week.

thanks for your help Marika

I said before about Oricon Style in that it underwent a name change to Only Star 2 years ago to probably celebrate its 30th anniversary of publication in 2008

I don't know what's so special about this edition, except that it's limited.

[Tom Punks]
