Is this a bootleg?

So, I got my copy of Mirrorcle World today, along with my friend's copy of Tohoshinki's The Secret Code. While hers was CLEARLY a bootleg, I'm not so sure about mine. I looked on eneabba and didn't see anything for Mirrorcle World under the bootleg guide. Everything looks legit except the CRSC logo on it, which I've never seen before.

Here's some pics:

Spoiler:

front w/obi


obi


CD


track listing


lyrics


back of insert


The insert is made of that nice glossy paper, and comes with the Chinese lyrics printed on the avex logo, so it's probably legit, but like I said, I got it off of eBay and just wanted to make sure.

Thanks in advance!

The catalog number on the obi is AVCDC 31430 and manufactured by China Record Shanghai Corporation.

Nope, it dont think its a bootleg

Bootlegs at my place have a wooden case instead of a plastic one and it usually has no booklets or those "side thingies"

So, I think ur good =D

Its official the stickers prove it (plus it prob says official release in the small print on the back. CRSC is the company that freleases her stuff in Chine along with avex. The DVD should be region 6.
