Questions about membership

Hello everybody,

first off, I hope that didn't start a thread that has been discussed millions of times. If so, please forgive me... I'm new on the AHS forum and I couldn't find this topic.
As a big fan of Ayu I'm thinking about finally becoming a TeamAyu member to show my support and to have the privelege of getting my hands on limited TeamAyu goods, bonus items, etc (especially now that the new mini album TROUBLE is coming out very soon).

My questions: how much would I actually be getting out of this membership while living outside of Japan? Will I be able to buy from the official shop and have it shipped to Germany or are these sales restricted to Japan?

Will the membership magazines be translated and documentaries be dubbed in English?

Oh and one more thing: What can I expect from the "original welcome present selected by ayu"?

Thank you all so much in advance!

Not much. You can see content at useless fanclub site, attent a ticket lottery and buy items in the shop

You will be able to buy items from TeamAyu shop, but they can't be shipped directly to your country. You need to use some middleman service like tenso

No. Only some entries from her blog sometimes translated into english. Also last magazine was released years ago and new seems will not come any time soon.

Thanks a lot! I was hoping it would give at least some additional benefits... but oh well...

As for site, I found my old post about it. I stopped by membership this April, but I believe nothing has changed from this time.

I can show what's inside TA now
Spoiler:

She wrote 4 times at her diary this month! That's a lot. Usually it's 1-3


No updates since 2014


No updates since 2015


All new videos only on youtube


Wallpapers. I'm sure next one will be with tour logo


She didn't release anything after A ONE?


This section is alive... but useless

But we don´t have TA Version this time, only a vinyl pouch as extra when you order bith boxes at once.

Thanks! I'll guess I will wait for a full album's release and a proper TA edition before joining...

Yeah... as others have said, outside of the ticket lottery it isn't all that worthwhile. I would say sign up if you are planning on going to more than one concert so you can get in the lottery. That's really the only real benefit these days.
