Wait, the album is still scheduled for release on April 24? That's awful.

>> The old one [garbled] Good work.

>>1 Thanks for your hard work. >>1 Thanks again.

>5 The thread must have grown differently from what was expected, so it can't be helped. Still, you did subtly add some spacing to create gaps.

>>5 Let's use it up in two days.

>>5 We'll use it up in two days, so it'll be fine.

>9 Then the next thread title should say “2nd album now on sale,” right?

>>9 >>10 Let's make it an album-release countdown thread.

We have to promote it. If we make it too puny, people will be put off. If this helps sell even a few more copies, I'll be happy.

>>9 >>10 YO, do you have enough material to use it all up?

>>9 I got beaten to it. I'm off to die... Sorry... Looks like it's no good. Goodbye.

Could the 23rd see the biggest surge in a GARNET CROW thread ever?

Wouldn’t that be the 24th or 25th, after the release?

>>13 I see—you made the first move to suppress the “punyu” posts. Anyway, nice work.

I won’t be able to post for a day or two after the release because I’ll be listening closely.

>14 It’ll be depressing if “punyu” and “dopyu” start overflowing everywhere, lol.

>>14 Usually people post things that aren’t worth posting. For example: “I saw a crow today.” “I ate azuki.”

High-school girl.

>>19 No—post before the release.

>>5 It would look really lame if it were still titled “▲4.24 2nd album release GARNET CROW part 14▲” in May. (lol)

Tokyo.

>>17 Maybe people will get it early? The period from the 23rd to the 24th should be intense. Still, what a difference from the lack of reaction to the first album.

I counted just now: during the M Station appearance, the thread grew by 500 posts in one day. This is only a new-single release, so I don’t think it’ll beat that.

>>26 No one probably cares, but I won’t be able to post on the 23rd for personal reasons. I’ll still get the album early, though.

>>27 It was amazing back then. People told us to go to the live-commentary board.

▲ﾌﾟﾆｭ( ´ｰ`)σ)Д`) GARNET CROW PART15 Σ（ﾟдﾟlll）ｶﾞｰﾝ▲ That should make 500 posts a day possible.

I was reading the previous thread and absolutely had to ask: do you all like Komatsu? I’m a fan of both GC and Miho Komatsu. No matter how much my feelings for GC grow, I’ll never forget Komatsu… Though I’m half exasperated with her, lol.

>>29 When I went to the live-commentary board, it was depressing: “The anime otaku’s favorite is here!” “Conan is here!”

>>32 It scares me to think that in about a month, the people who said that might be saying things like “Yuri-tan!”

I’m fantasizing about GARNET CROW appearing on M Station again after the second album comes out.

Me → ｺﾉｰ ( ´ｰ`)σ)Д`) ← the old @

When did the old “1” become “1”?

>>32 That was extremely depressing. People were calling them Pamela.

>>37 Quite a few people were also confusing them with Montevideo. There are probably still plenty of people who do that.

>>31 I neither like nor dislike Komatsu. But she does feel kind of unremarkable.

http://www.dgcr.com/jam/backnumber/021/garnet%20crow/garnet.html Old news?

“Pamela” was depressing too, but “can’t sing” was the most depressing part.

>>38 Someone in an early GC thread asked about the differences between Montevideo, Ramjet, and GC. It was very much a “go look it up yourself!” situation.

>>42 The people on the live-commentary board don’t have brains like that. And you didn’t notice it either… (etc.)

Which came out first, the indie album or “Mysterious Eyes”?

>>44 I think the indie album came out about six months before “Mysterious Eyes.”

>They formed in 1999. The four members had each already been active in the industry, and became close while coming and going from the studio. What was Nakamura doing in the industry?

>>46 Wasn’t she about to become a composer exclusively contracted to GIZA? Maybe they debuted her because she was beautiful. That’s just speculation, though.

>They became close while coming and going from the studio. I doubt that’s true. What are the odds of such a coincidence…? That said, it is true that the members of the creator group were each active in their own right. So beginners, feel free to listen without worry.

>>46 Apparently she made demo tapes for Kuraki.

>>49 LOL. The musical style is totally different.

At this rate, 50 posts in 2:08 means 1,000 posts in 42:40. Just testing the theory.

Indeed, I wonder how Nakamura entered the industry.

Maybe she sang backing vocals.

I vote for >>47.

There are various theories: maybe she failed an audition but Furui picked her up, or maybe she passed an audition and they assembled the members at random.

The ID says “2nd”—oh.

I can’t wait any longer. Someone sing it for me.

Nakamura while singing “Last love song” is the biggest gap from her usual image, and it’s so moe.

>>57 “Emotions, you know ♪ If you don’t take proper care of them, they stop moving ♪” Is that good enough?

>>58 I agree.

>>57 “Even if I committed a crime~ people have their reasons~”

>>31 I’m a GC-and-Komatsu fan too. Miho Komatsu was what got me to start properly listening to the B-sides and album tracks. Before that, I had convinced myself that everything except the A-sides was garbage, so I didn’t even try listening. Both Miho Komatsu and GC have lots of good B-sides and album tracks, and not a single obvious throwaway song, so I like them.

Yurippeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

>>31 I’m a GC-and-Komatsu fan too. My handle comes from one of Komatsu’s songs. Even if they were on different record labels and Furui didn’t arrange Komatsu’s songs, I still would have become a GC fan.

For some reason, all the antis have gathered in the previous thread. At least they aren’t coming here.

If you want to talk about Komatsu, go here: http://music.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/musicj/1018816753/l50 It’s a problem that people bring up other Being artists without a second thought just because they’re under Being. Honestly, I can’t understand what they’re saying at all.

This is a GC thread. I’m not denying Komatsu, but discussing Komatsu belongs in the Komatsu thread—that’s basic etiquette. Some people find it unpleasant, and I don’t understand why they’re talking about Komatsu in a GC thread anyway. Komatsu fans are famous for having bad manners, aren’t they?

>Komatsu fans are famous for having bad manners, aren’t they? Only among GC fans, you mean.

>>68 It’s true that Komatsu fans who suddenly start talking about her in a GC thread are partly at fault, but needlessly provoking them like that is what leads to situations like the previous thread. You’re both at fault. Remember that the moment you post on 2ch, you’re at the bottom of the caste system. The thread atmosphere has gotten worse than it used to, and it’s become uncomfortable to stay here. I wonder whether the second album will improve things or make them even worse… Please don’t make it any more hostile…

Let’s talk about GC.

（ﾟ∀ﾟ）こ━（ ﾟ∀）ま━（ 　ﾟ）つ━（　　）を━（ﾟ 　）た━（∀ﾟ ）は━ （ﾟ∀ﾟ）こ━（ ﾟ∀）ま━（ 　ﾟ）つ━（　　）す━（ﾟ 　）れ━（∀ﾟ ）に━ （ﾟ∀ﾟ）れ━（ ﾟ∀）す━（ 　ﾟ）し━（　　）ろ━（ﾟ 　）よ━（∀ﾟ ）！━

>>70 said that, and then >>72 immediately does this… This is hopeless. Oh well. As >>71 says, we have no choice but to liven things up with GC talk. Look! Look, look! My ID is GC! Yay! …This feels kind of empty.

>>72 If Komatsu otaku start acting up, just ignore them. Realize that by dirtying the thread with that trash post, you’re doing the same thing as the Komatsu otaku you dislike. Maybe the topic is running a little thin… All the album information is out, so now we just have to wait. What song are you listening to right now? I’m listening to “Mikansei na Neiro.” People say this song has no chorus, but I think any part could serve as the chorus without being strange.

Oh, this really is hopeless. An idiot is going over to the Komatsu thread to provoke them. That makes him no different from the annoying Komatsu otaku who come here to talk. Actually, I bet they’re antis posing as GC fans just to cause trouble. I wonder if the second album will change this situation… >>74 “Mikansei na Neiro” is a song with a high level of completion despite its title, isn’t it? (lol) I’m listening to “flying,” by the way. Pretty predictable.

>>74 I’m playing “A crown” from the copy of “first kaleidscope” I bought yesterday.

>>74 It’s a little unconvincing for you to say that after bringing up Komatsu yourself. There are only five new songs, but as the release approaches my heart is still getting excited. It probably won’t blossom on the charts this time, though.

>>74 The awful remix of “Yume Mita Ato de.” The old synthesizer sounds better than the strings.

>>74 I’m listening to “Futari no Rocket ~cool smooth version~.” I like this laid-back arrangement.

Second album “SPARKLE ~Sujigaki Dōri no Sky Blue~” — now on sale to great reviews (among fans only)!

>>74 I’m listening to “dreaming of love.” I really love this one.

>>74 “Blue Bird” is here! ━━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━( ﾟ∀)━( 　ﾟ)━(　　)━(ﾟ 　)━(∀ﾟ )━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━━!!!!!

I’m listening to “Bury Forever” while watching Yurippe sleeping on the train in the “Timeless Sleep” PV.

I’m listening to “Sen Ijō” right now. The more closely I listen, the more I like it.

I’m a L’Arc fan. Is that a problem?

I’m a game otaku. Is that a problem?

On the train, “Kimi no Ie ni Tsuku Made…” is relaxed and good!

Listening to “Sen’ijō” makes me feel laid-back.

“Brave.”

I messed up. Sorry. I was trying to use the Right-Click Search-kun dictionary…

Listening to “Mizu no Nai Hareta Umi e” makes me want to go to an aquarium.

>>90 There’s a song called “Brave” by dream, so for a moment I thought, “Huh?”

I always listen to the mini-album and first album in track order. I don’t use shuffle much because it feels like it would ruin the mood. Am I the only one?

The previous thread succeeded in making “Nakamura moe” a thing, didn’t it? TV appearance: AZUKI → lost fans Yuri Nakamura → gained fans If AZUKI had simply embraced the “cute older lady” image from the start instead of retouching the PVs and jacket photos, maybe this wouldn’t have happened…

I’m a new fan, but this made me want to buy a CD for the first time in a while. It’s pretty good.

???????

My single-song preferences: call ≧ last = flying ＞ Yume Mita Ato de ≧ Sen’ijō ＞ timeless ＞ Kimi no Ie ＞ Natsu no Maboroshi ≧ Mysterious Eyes ＞ Futari no Rocket

>>97 Hey, it’s already 4:30 a.m. Go to bed before it affects tomorrow. My single-song preferences, for what it’s worth: Last Love ＞ fly ≠ Yume Mita ⇔ Kimi no Ie ≡ call ⇒ Sen Ijō ± Futari no √ timeless @ Natsu no Maboroshi

>>98 I laughed at that despite myself, lol.

>>94 Gained new fans through TV appearances → AZUKI Fan count unchanged after appearing → Yuri Nakamura

I wonder if Nana-tan will produce lyrics for Azumi-chan again next time.

Over 100 posts in one day… amazing.

It’s amazing to see this much activity in such a sensible thread…

My single-song preferences: Sen’ijō ≧ Futari no Rocket ＞ Yume Mita Ato de ＞ Timeless = call = last ＞ flying, Kimi no Ie = Natsu no Maboroshi = Mysterious Eyes >>98 Does the reverse ranking not work? >>94 Yuri [before appearing]: “It’s just video magic anyway.” → [after appearing]: “With the live DVD too, she’s even better than in the PV.” AZUKI [before appearing]: “It’s just video magic anyway.” → [after appearing]: “She seems to be over thirty, but she’s pretty good for her age.” Conclusion: Wouldn’t both of them be better off if they stopped doing unnecessary things in their PVs?

It’s not important, but correction to >>104: flying ＞ Kimi no Ie

So how are “Yume Mita Ato de” sales doing?

Nakamura!

My single-song preferences: flying ≧ Natsu no Maboroshi ＞ Yume Mita Ato de = Last = Futari no Rocket ＞ Sen’ijō ＞ Timeless = Kimi no Ie ＞ Mysterious ≧ call

I’m about to become a fan. Can I keep up?

Then I’ll give mine too: Last ≧ flying ≧ Timeless ＞ Yume Mita ＞ Futari no Rocket = Natsu no Maboroshi ≧ call ＞ Sen’ijō = Kimi no Ie ≧ Mysterious >>106 It sold 78,760 copies last week, so I’d guess around 80,000 as of today.

>>107 “Call my name”?

>>109 New fans are welcome. However, it’s also true that this thread has an atmosphere of “If you haven’t heard every song, don’t talk about GC.” (I’ve seen several posts like that.) Still, GC has so many good album tracks and B-sides that you won’t regret hearing everything. If you rent them, it won’t cost that much either.

>>112 Then I should listen to the pre-debut album too.

>>113 Of course. But here’s the catch: I don’t think “Kaleidoscope” is available for rental.

>>98 It’s 98 here. The ranking is meant to make Last Love look like number one at first, but Mysterious is actually my favorite. Sorry it’s hard to read. >>113 As people said in the previous thread, if you see the indie album anywhere, buy it immediately. It’s surprisingly hard to find. Also, how are you able to post this much in the middle of a weekday?

>>115 You’re either a university student whose classes start in the afternoon or a shut-in. I’m both.

My classes start in the afternoon too, though I’m not in university. Anyway, we should finish this thread by around 10 tomorrow morning, before we get the album.

Are the channers here even less informed than the fan-site crowd? I bet 80% of everyone who heard the album will be shocked and fall head over heels.

I attend school on weekdays, so I usually work on reports and homework at home. I do go out shopping, so I’m not a shut-in.

Sorry, I misread it… Correction… sorry.

Has it already been mentioned that Viewsic is doing a GC special?

For me, it’s been a GC special for months.

There’s something a little unusual about Yuri Nakamura’s vocal delivery. It’s like she doesn’t open her mouth all the way. Maybe that’s part of her individuality.

>>127 Seriously? It hasn’t aired yet, right? I’m definitely watching it!

>>130 That’s a great post. I’m moved. It’ll help use up the thread, so everyone post some nonsense.

>>129 That’s what makes her sexy. (moe)

Sexy Yuri.

Zexy Yuri.

Everyone posting here is either a university student, a ronin retaking entrance exams, or a shut-in.

Don’t forget the housewives exhausted by housework and childcare.

Graduate students (doctoral and master’s) and research students are included too.

Professional baseball players are free on Monday afternoons too.

The thread is being used up faster than usual.

Yurippe appeared in my dream and said, “Hi.” I returned the greeting: “Hi.”

Yurippe’s expressionless face is my unshaven beard.

>>141 My Yuri-tan says “Hiya.” She would never use such delinquent-sounding language!

>>135 Pretty soon real middle-schoolers and elementary-schoolers will join in too.

>>143 You said “Hi(ya),” though. Heh-heh.

>>152 That’s not what I meant.

After AZUKI Nana finished writing the lyrics to “Please Forgive Me,” she said to Yuri Nakamura: “…Can you really sing this?” …Was that a true story? Nana-san is kind of scary…

At this rate, it’ll sell 1 million copies.

My head is sparkling too.

>>156 You have one zero too many.

My body, heart, and even the money in my wallet are sparkling.

>>157 Do you mean definition 3?

AZUKI’s crown is sparkling.

>>158 It looks like it could sell 10 million copies.

Okamoto is sparkling while playing guitar.

Yurippe’s pronunciation is weird. Sparkle.

That's the album itself.

Let's leave school or work early tomorrow.

Looks like the mini-album will be shipped tomorrow. It should be arriving soon...

GC has arrived━━━━（ﾟ∀ﾟ）━━━━!!!!!

You got two GCs in your ID. Congrats.

Hmm, I guess it hasn't arrived yet.....?

I meant the ID.

>>213 Sorry, I'm only buying the mini (I can't afford the other one). ......Oh! My bankbook...

There was just one little one.

Oh, you mean the ID... Ah! The ID is Gc... feels like a good omen.

Honestly, I'm torn between buying Miki Imai and GC.

>>216 Buy the 2nd album instead of the mini.

I'll withdraw my savings and buy the 2nd one too...

>220 Neither of them is an artist worth leaving early for, though. (lol)

>>219 GC, being made to go to Tokyo for work from Osaka without being given breakfast or lunch despite appearing on TBS Radio; and Miki Imai, wife of Hotei and earning money herself. Choose whichever one you feel sorry for.

It's >>219... I'm depressed, I'm going to die.

Someone may have accidentally left early today.

Hey, you guys! This thread is moving too fast!! Think of what it's like for people reading later, YO!

>>237 That won't happen.

Hey, guys, I just listened to the 2nd album, YO! If the 1st was a “depressed” album, the 2nd is a “come on, cheer up, YO!” kind of album. Anyway, I thought it was a must-buy (unfortunately, it won't be in stock until tomorrow). My top three album tracks are: pray > Please, Forgive Me > wish★

>>237 It's okay—I've already preordered it.

（・∀・）sage

ﾌﾟﾆｭ( ´ｰ`)σ)Д`) age

Oops, I meant sage.

Nakamura ♥

AZUKI: “Yuri-chan, Yuri-chan.” Nakamura: “What?”

Okay, I'll buy it! Yoko Ueno's “Soramimi Cake.” Sorry, I don't have any money...

AZUKI: “What do you want to eat today?” Nakamura: “I feel like sushi.”

♥ A heart without love doesn't resonate♪

AZUKI: “Have you lost weight lately?” Nakamura: “A little.”

Nana-tan, are you alive??

AZUKI: “How old do I look?” Nakamura: “PV: 20, TV: 30.”

But that's okay, isn't it? Aside from looking older, AZUKI was a beauty who wasn't much different from her PV or TV appearances. Before they appeared, I was worried about how much retouching there had been... (lol)

(=ﾟωﾟ)ﾉ Yo, Yurippe.

AZUKI: “Aren't Furui and the others late?” Nakamura: “Oh, apparently they're stopping by Côte d'Ivoire.”

AZUKI: “This oden is really hot. I need to huff and puff.” Nakamura: “Aren't you supposed to blow on it?”

The thread was moving so fast that I thought some trolls had shown up (lol).

>>253 We had some confidence about Yurippe thanks to the Horie DVD recommended for moe otaku, but we couldn't know what Nana-tan was like until she appeared on TV.

It's finally tomorrow.

The big day is finally tomorrow.

Festival tomorrow?

It's already a festival, isn't it?

If there are 300 posts a day, we'll reach the next thread by midnight on the 25th.

We're already close to 300, so 400 by the end of today, then a festival tomorrow, 550, and we'll move to a new thread.

>264 >400 by the end of today The trap is that we have no material...

Just writing out all the song titles should get us around 30 posts.

What do you think of “A crown”?

Huh? I saw SPARKLE on sale.

http://www.amazon.co.jp/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00005V1LZ/ref%3Dm%5Fbr%5Fr%5F8%5F3/250-9611161-4951443 The Miho Karasawa version.

>267 “Let's intertwine with kindness and chest hair.” Weird lyrics.

Any last words about “Eien ni Houmure”?

The Sanzu River in “flying.”

>>269 She looks like Rina Aiuchi.

Keep an eye out for the Detective Conan commercial.

>271 I want to be chased after too.

High-speed, special, one-day— I won't settle for a rental.

SPARKLE ｷﾀ━━━（ﾟ∀ﾟ）━（ ﾟ∀）━（ 　ﾟ）━（　　）━（ﾟ 　）━（∀ﾟ ）━（ﾟ∀ﾟ）━━━!!!!!

The commercial is on━━━━（ﾟ∀ﾟ）━━━━!!!!! I'm saying this just to pad the thread—consider it a test.

CM: NORTH

CM: SOUTH

My desire to buy has been activated. Definitely buying it.

I only rent CDs and never buy them, but I'll buy GARNET CROW.

>281 Of course.

Buy a CD → Nakamura and AZUKI's salaries go up.

M I L L I O N G U A R A N T E E D ?

Okamochi probably doesn't get much of a salary.

>>285 It'll reach about the level mentioned in >>162.

The fees are properly split four ways.

The Conan ending song is on━━━━━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━━━━━ !!!!!

The people receiving royalties: Composition: Nakamura. Lyrics: AZUKI. Furui-tan has a teaching job, too. Okamochi, you're desperate (lol). Is that why you started a side business?

I venture that the side business is in the red.

Even Morisuko says SPARKLE is good.

Conan night game?

Hey, hey. Don't react so sensitively to Conan. That's why people call you anime otaku... (and so on).

Why do “Kamenuma” and “Fish Hell” appear, but GARNET CROW doesn't??

Will we reach the next thread before the release date...?

Furui 40%, AZUKI 29%, Yuri 29%, Okamochi 2%.

Knowing the broadcast times of the Konaso commercial and ending is the duty of a non-anime-otaku GC fan.

I got 300!!!

Don't worry—the GIZA artists are on a lot during this time slot.

>289 （´ι _` 　） Oh, really? (lol) Album release, yay! v(￣Д￣)v

300

I got 300.

I got 307.

305

307-tan

Gyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

Everyone, good luck with the remaining 600 posts. I'm logging off.

Gyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

Sorry, is this going to continue? This “gyaaaaaaaaaah” thing...?

Gyaaaaaaaaaah!

And then there was no one left...

No one was left...

It won't finish if you keep slacking.

What is this lousy thread? (lol)

Once tomorrow comes, it'll turn into a proper thread.

Poor Yurippe—because sales aren't growing, they made her wear the same outfit in the jacket photos for “Futari no Rocket” and “Natsu no Maboroshi.” Punyuu ／￣ ヽ ／￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣￣ |^◇^ ヽ ＜ Give Yurippe a new outfit for the jacket photos! （ ） ＼＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿ ''ゝ'''ゝ´ Punyuu

Isn't it okay to welcome the album release in this thread? Even if we use it up, the old #1 might start another thread with the same title, or the Punyuu nerds might create a disgusting title. Do you really want to welcome this commemorative album release in a thread like the ones above? If not, calm down. No—please calm down.

>>321 Thinking about it calmly, you're right. There were 300 posts, but I finished reading them in the blink of an eye. There wasn't much substance...

The new thread title is decided: “Album・Ganecro 2002 part15”!!!

Go die!

>>326 It's too long; it'll be rejected.

Punyuu punyuu!

This thread title is great: it doesn't smell like an otaku thread, and it can serve as advertising.

>330 The content is pure otaku, though (lol). It might serve as advertising, but if it still has this title after the 24th, it'll be embarrassing.

>>330 After April 24, it suddenly becomes a double-edged sword that doesn't quite work anymore.

People probably won't gather after the 24th if there's no Punyuu.

I wonder what the split is between people for and against Punyuu. I'm in favor.

I'm in favor if it's kept moderate; too much of it is a no.

Why not just leave Punyuu alone?

Inagaki.

Anyway, I can't wait to hear the album tomorrowーー.

None of GARNET CROW's members has cheeks plump enough to make Punyuu satisfying. If you poked Nakamura's sunken cheeks with a finger, she'd probably yell “What!!!” and throw a fit. The 4D-JAM girls look like they would be perfect for Punyuu—your finger would probably sink right in.

It's gross for a guy to say “Punyuu” and use kaomoji. Yuriny would still be better.

Come to think of it, the last time I went to Lamss to buy a Morning Musume CD (I was actually a fan), they were selling it a day early. I went into the store on a long shot, thinking, “It's one day early today, but maybe...,” and there it was. Could they have been selling it today too? Oh well.

>>340 That one day early is tomorrow.

When “flying” was released, people must have written lots of fresh puns like, “Tomorrow is flying's flying day.”

I'll keep running until I reach the CD shop♪

Now it's time to listen to “Timeless sleep.” (Sorry if I spelled it wrong.) ......Okay, bye—I'm off to die♪

Why a preview???

It's a pun.

ﾌﾟﾆｭ( ´ｰ`)σ)Д`)

“Eien ni Houmure” Heh.

A manufactured band: GARNET CROW.

So you were trolling.

>>349 “Eien ni Houmure” [“Towa ni Nemure”] A song about following after a dead lover.

>>343 Back then, when people said “flying”... never mind. (((((((( ；ﾟДﾟ))))))) G-shiver-shiver-shake-shake-shiver-shiver-shiver

>>352 I didn't expect a serious reply to a joke.

>>353 What happened back then?

>>355 I'm not 354, but you can find out by looking at the old threads from back then. It brings back memories of the atmosphere in that deserted thread...

>>334 >>340 It doesn't matter if a handsome guy says Punyuu or Yuriny. This thread is mellow and comforting—much better than those bleak threads you don't even feel like reading. By the way, I watched almost all of GARNET CROW's TV appearances after “Yume Mita Ato de.” It made me simply happy. When I had just become a fan, I couldn't watch the “mysterious” PV anywhere. I finally got SkyPerfecTV, found it on some program, and then the members weren't even in it; I was so disappointed. It feels like that was all a lie now... But now I want to see them appear on TV for the other songs too. ﾌﾟﾆｭ( ´ｰ`)σ)Д`) Sorry—I just wanted to do it once.

Please, absolutely don't put Punyuu in the thread title, Punyuu fans. If that happens, I'll leave this thread for a southern island (lol).

If Nakamura and Nana gain confidence from this TV appearance and appear on TV again for the next single...

━━━━━Everything up to here can be read in five minutes.━━━━━━

>>358 Why a southern island?

Are you someone who watches CS?

Go wherever you want to go.

>>361 I'm the cowardly man who made the woman in the “Mystrious Eyes” coupling track cry... (lol)

Relaxing while listening to “Senijō” and “blue bird.”

>>358 Putting “Punyuu” in the thread title really would make people recoil.

>364 Hey, by now you're on a southern island...

>>364 In the end, the woman forgot and abandoned you.

The future of >>364 doesn't matter to me.

>>365 You can relax while listening to two songs at once? You're a god.

2nd album early-release day 　　　　　　　　　　　　　 ∧ ∧ IT'S HERE━━━━━━ （ ﾟ∀ﾟ　）━━━━━━━━━!! 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　_,i -ｲ、 　　　　　　　　　　　 （⌒`　　　 ⌒ヽ 　　　　　　　　　　　　 ヽ　 ~~⌒γ⌒） 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 〉 AS SCRIPTED |

>>370 I didn't say simultaneously. They're on the same CD.

>>371 Scary...

Here we are—the 23rd.

>>373 Call me creepy. Sorry, wrong board.

>>375 Then call me creepy. Also, is this person male or female? It doesn't matter, though.

Creepy and scary.

There are an unusual number of Anonymous Ellies today. >>371 That made me laugh...

Suporuto.

Call my name, when you knock on the door.

I thought there would be ten posts of ｷﾀ━━━（ﾟ∀ﾟ）━（ ﾟ∀）━（ 　ﾟ）━（　　）━（ﾟ 　）━（∀ﾟ ）━（ﾟ∀ﾟ）━━━!!!!! the instant it became midnight, but surprisingly, everyone welcomed release day so calmly. Is the proportion of kids lower than expected? Only my own childishness is standing out, and it depresses me...

>381 It could also be that they're so childish they've already gone to bed.

Next week's SO-HOT is supposed to have interviews with Yuri Nakamura and Nana AZUKI.

Instead of Punyuu, let's call it Burinuri.

>>382 GC really has fans who are that childish? (lol)

The long-awaited day has finally come... WASSHOI!

>>386 I want to show this AA to the members themselves—to let them know that they have fans this happy.

I'll bet 300 SPARKLE that this is a recycled Hanshin-trolling AA from the Rina Aiuchi thread.

>388 Indeed, you often see this one on the sports live-commentary board. But it's a very versatile AA and can also be used when lamenting.

>>388 That's exactly right, damn you! ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ I hope Hanshin wins its game on the 23rd and adds a flourish to GARNET CROW's album release.

>>388 Come to think of it, isn't the “Yuriny” AA also recycled from the “Rinany” one in the Rina Aiuchi thread? I don't know which came first, though.

>>145 × “こんにちわ” ○ “こんにちは”

>>350 “A manufactured band: GARNET CROW” is a great title!

All right, I'll relax and listen to the album while watching Hanshin win big today. But Hiroshima's starting pitcher is Hasegawa. Ugh.

Sorry. I only Punyuu'd on a whim... I never expected it to turn into all this... ━ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ━(ヽ`Д)━( 　ヽ`)━ヽ(　　　)ﾉ━(ヽ　　)━(Д´ヽ)━ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ━!!! Waaaaah!!

Hey, don't they do live shows?

They don't need to appear on TV—I'd rather they do more live shows...

I listened to it incredibly early!!! Poster: tanakatarou2 — April 23, 2002, 4:50 a.m. Rating: ★★★★★ The 1st was good, but the 2nd has evolved even further. Yuri's singing ability has improved dramatically. The original album tracks are extremely good—every one of them is good enough to be released as a single. “Yume Mita Ato de” fades into the background. The songs that gave me an incredible heartache after just one listen were: 4. pray 8. wish★ 10. Holy ground I've arranged to take the day off work today, so I'll listen to it all day. I think this album is going to break through!!!

GC has conveniently made it into 10th place on CD Data's list of “artists expected to break out in 2002.”

(=ﾟωﾟ)ﾉ Yo, Yurippe.

Does shoplifting an album count toward the sales numbers?

>>399 That kind of ranking isn't reliable, you know.

Takato Kato.

>>399 Did you call?

CD RELEASE FESTIVAL!! Charge━━━━━━!!

Sometimes you can't get there even after jerking off a thousand times; other times, you can get there after just once. Splurt♪

Go back to the Komatsu thread! Or rather, （・∀・）GO HOME!

（・∀・）GO HOME

I'm going to buy the 2nd album now, dammit!! Ｏーーーーーーーッ!!

I registered the album data with Oricon's website, damn it.

>>409 I like the people yelling “Oーーーーーーーッ!!” Their backs of their heads, too. They're just like the people watching “Energetic Giko.”

I'm going to buy the 2nd album now, dammit!! Oーーーーーーーッ!! >>406 （・∀・）GO HOME!!

>>401 Buy it!!!

Naked Story, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah♪

It got misaligned... I'm depressed.

Dancing to “wish★” is the thing to do, Mona.

This one got misaligned too... But ID: GC━━━━━（ﾟ∀ﾟ）━（ ﾟ∀）━（ 　ﾟ）━（　　）━（ﾟ 　）━（∀ﾟ ）━（ﾟ∀ﾟ）━━━!!!!!

The thread's immature fans are multiplying. Is this what GC fans are like?

The atmosphere of the thread has changed... It's full of Monas now.

Some of the fans probably broke when the 2nd album came out. It should return to normal next week.

The bonus track is arranged with the flavor of a TV-drama ending, but it doesn't get in the way of the main album. And the main album is so good—like that indescribable, happy scent in a fruit section, just saying (RAGE). And as for Yurippe, she's so moe that you can't help but Punyuu her.

（´д｀）Yuri-tan... Sorry, I'm broken.

Shake. The Furui-gumi boss, Furui, and his wife, AZUKI; their only daughter, Nakamura, and the Furui-gumi's gunman, Okamochi.

Is there a first-edition version?

Everyone, calm down.

Give me a sedative!!! Punyuu → sobbing → shock → “Huh?” → cool smoking → “It's here!” → nice → “Hey!” → snickering → tasty → trembling → yay → crying → smirking → “It's here!” → Punyuu → stab → gross → “Yo, Yurippe.”

>>423 Really?

Calm down a little—some people can't buy it. May... May...

The eyes of the real narrow-eyed Mona (Darkside Mona) look like Yuri Nakamura's.

I preordered and bought it, but didn't get a poster (depressed). I bought it around noon; about 15 had already sold, and there was only one left on the shelf. >>424 I don't think there is one.

I didn't get a poster either. Oda-tan's best-of had a huge display, but there was a small SPARKLE corner too.

Are they mostly putting it out today? Is it being sold at local Tsutaya stores?

“Holy ground” is great. 1st... (depressed) 2nd... (heart)

>>432 It's being sold everywhere. If it's not on the shelf, the clerk is just hiding it behind the counter. Ask, “Do you have it?” and surely... (and so on)

>>434 Thanks. I'm going to buy it!

>>431 Oda-tan's corner shocked me—it had about ten times as much space as GC. >>432 I bought it at a local Tsutaya. They seem to have received only a small number, so it may already be sold out.

Even if it's not on the shelf, ask a store clerk—especially one who looks important. That way the name GC will spread to CD shops all over the world. On the 2nd album, Nakamura stands out like she did on “first kaleidscope.”

Got the album and poster! Taking the day off work was the right choice! (lol) I've listened through it once, and all the new songs feel great. Track 10, “Holy ground”—Yuri-tan's falsetto made me swoon. (lol)

She's even singing that song they called “C-level” difficult properly.

The thread has finally returned to its usual calm (lol). Seriously, it's great. This is bound to sell.

I bought it—it's here! The photos inside are much clearer than on the 1st album, lol. I'm going to listen to it now.

Nana-tan's close-up has been retouched. They're covering it up—waaaaaah! ヽ(｀Д´)ノ

I'm back, dammit. The people before and after me at the register were also buying SPARKLE... ...No, they were buying Mongol 800. (ﾟДﾟ) Damn it!!

>>441 With the TV appearance behind them, we're finally getting unretouched photos. Still, I wish Nakamura's stylist would trade places with the stylist from the Pan Factory live.

>>442 Nana-tan can't help it.

AZUKI on page 9 is out of focus. (´･ω･`) So sad.

The three-single run is over, so I'll finally listen to it carefully.

I bought it, damn it! The rental shop near me sells new copies for about 2,600 yen, but they hadn't arrived yet, so I couldn't wait and bought it at Sangenjaya Tsutaya for 3,058 yen, damn it! ♪ Naked Story Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah—

The album tracks are polished enough to be released as singles.

The lyrics to “Sky Blue” include “as scripted,” which put me in a slightly happy mood. This song is incredibly good, too! (・∀・)

The words “dreamed of it” show up in all sorts of songs, too.

“pray” moved me more than anything.

>>409 I'm listening at the same pace, lol. With the 1st, it felt like I was sitting with my head bowed in a dark room, sinking deeper and deeper. With the 2nd, I get an image of light streaming down from the ceiling. They're both GC, but the range is broad—or something like that.

I want to question—and interrogate for an hour—the taste of the stylist who put Nakamura in an outfit like the one on page 11 (and so on).

>>452 It moved me too.

I'm about to cry listening to “Holy ground” right now. AZUKI's lyrics really need Yurippe's voice.

It's a festival today—WASSHOI! Nana WASSHOI! Yurippe WASSHOI!

The cry of the cicadas♪

Absolutely great! ъ( ﾟｰ^) Good! Still, even though an album release would normally be cause for a festival, we're keeping this thread low-key. That's what I like about its residents. (・∀・)

I've finished listening through it once. With my poor powers of expression, I couldn't convey how good this album is even with a thousand words. I'll leave the criticism to others. I'll just say one thing: (・∀・) GREAT!

I listened through it too. Now that everyone has the album in hand, has everyone calmed down? I'm going to listen carefully to the non-single tracks, YO!

“Do a backflip and peek at the sky blue” That part is great! It brings back memories. Nana-tan, it makes me want to do a backflip now, YO!

(=ﾟωﾟ)ﾉ Yo, SPARKLE.

The remix of “Mysterious Eyes” pushes Yurippe's voice to the front, and it sounds great! (･∀･)

Don't forget “Please, Forgive Me.”

Is it really that good? Compared with the 1st, it feels a little lacking... There are a few songs I wonder about if they weren't sung by Yuri Nakamura.

I'm sure even now♪ >>466 The fact that Nakamura is singing is what makes it GC, isn't it?

When today ends, on to today♪

When tomorrow comes, on to tomorrow♪

“Naked Story” is great.

I bought it (and so on).

The 1st mini-album just arrived. I'm listening to it now.

What does GARNET CROW mean? I just joined this thread, so I don't really know. Would I find out if I looked through the old logs?

Just testing: a crow the color of the garnet gemstone.

>>467 I think Nakamura's voice is cute. That's why every song ends up sounding good to me.

>>475 So because Nakamura sang every song, every song on SPARKLE was good.

Nakamura's outfit is quite a chic lolita look, lol. The 1st felt like they were trying all sorts of things, while the 2nd had a unified scent across every track. Personally, I wish there had been one more rock song with a real sense of breaking free—something like “Rhythm” on the 1st.

I called HMV this morning and they said it would arrive after 5 p.m. So I'm going to buy it! (ﾟДﾟ) Damn it!! ...I wonder if I'll get a poster. (´･ω･`) So sad.

It arrives at 5 a.m.; sold out one minute before >>478 arrives.

I think “wish★” is especially good.

Listening to SPARKLE makes me cry!! ･ﾟ･(ﾉД`)･ﾟ･｡ ﾌﾟﾆｭ( ´ｰ`)σ)Д`) Yurippe's voice is the best, YO!

Me → ﾌﾟﾆｭ( ´ｰ`)σ)Д`) yeah ← Yurippe

>482 Gaaaaaah! Yurippeー!! That's 18+ stuff, isn't it? (lol) ━ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ━(ヽ`Д)━( 　ヽ`)━ヽ(　　　)ﾉ━(ヽ　　)━(Д´ヽ)━ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ━!!! Waaaaah!!

I only poked the cheek of Yurippe while she was singing “Naked Story.” It isn't 18+ stuff. (lol)

Depending on the photo, Yuri Nakamura can look like a young married mom...

One thing I like about GC songs is that the instrumental interludes—the time when you can't hear Yurippe's voice—are fairly short. If they were long, the excited mood would deflate. So, the mole on Yurippe's neck is great! (･∀･)

>>485 Brown hair doesn't suit her. Should I go post on the official forum asking them to make it black? >>486 The mole on her neck is great! (･∀･) = 18+ (lol)

Let's save the calm discussion for later. We have to get through on this album until the next release, so let's go wild today as a way of thanking GC for everything so far, dammit!! GARNET CROW is the absolute best ×10,000,000,000,000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I got the poster, but isn't Nana's face kind of blue? (lol)

The album was in sixth place at a store near me as of today.

Quietly, in the thread where everyone has disappeared: Me → ﾌﾟﾆｭ( ´ｰ`)σ)Д`) yeah ← Yurippe That's all.

Die.

“PRAY” is the best.

So it was “toy sword”... I thought it was “king's sword.”

Neither Lamss nor R had it in stock... Why? But I won't give up. Maybe I'll go back one more time.

>>490 Maybe it'll debut at number six again. But it seems like sales are lower than expected. Are simultaneously released singles just stronger after all?

The new Kuraki release was in the CD shop near me, but GC wasn't. What is up with that?

>>497 Go to another CD shop.

>>497 The manager of a rural record store doesn't know GC. At shops like that, after Oda, it's usually Miki Imai.

500

>>500 Congrats.

>496 There are new singles out too!? That's the first I've heard of it!!

Did the Oricon daily chart come out today?

>>502 No. I mean everyone is focused on the singles battle between Hama, Kuraki, Baka-dono, and the others.

>>503 It comes out every day. But the rankings for SPARKLE and the like will be around 3 p.m. tomorrow.

>>476 Well, that's true. But when I first heard the rhythm of “Naked Story,” I thought it was a joke. I wonder whether they intentionally changed direction from the days of the 1st...

>>504 I sincerely hope the buying audience for Baka-dono and GC is different.

The GC blurb in a free paper at the CD shop called Nana just “AZUMI.” Uehara, is that you?! (ﾟДﾟ) Damn it!!

I might like “wish★.” It steals my heart—

>>508 Tell me which CD shop it was. I'll go destroy it.

If you only pay attention to the album tracks, it's a fairly bright album. But when you think about the singles—“Yume Mita Ato de,” “Timeless Sleep,” “call my name,” and “Last love song”— the 2nd is pretty bittersweet too.

Yurippe... thank youー!

Doesn't the beginning of “Pray” resemble a nursery rhyme or folk song from somewhere in Scandinavia or another Nordic country? I don't know the title.

It feels so new! As a longtime fan, I have mixed feelings.

From what I'm hearing, it sounds mediocre, so I'll hold off on buying it.

>>506 On the 21st's “PASSTIME PARADISE,” Okamoto explicitly said that after “Last Love Song,” they had started moving away from the neo-acoustic direction. He said “Naked Story” is a rock song with heavy electric guitar added. Old fans who can only accept neo-acoustic will probably drift away (it's all KANONJI's decision). >>ALL If you look at the last page of the lyric booklet, you can see that Okamoto sings chorus. So Yuri and Okamoto are both on the backing vocals. Also, KANONJI is the executive producer again this time. >>GIZA staff If anyone from GIZA is reading this board, I have something to say. For the next new song, a re-cut of “wish★” would be better than “Spiral.” It will definitely be a huge hit. Tell KANONJI. However, if the album sells terribly or becomes a massive hit, “Spiral” is fine. Only if it becomes a medium-sized hit can a “wish★” re-cut aim for a huge hit.

>>512 That AA fits Nakamura's name incredibly well. >>513 Apparently it was composed under the influence of Japanese things—folk songs and other classical material, including foreign ethnic music. (According to Nakamura.)

>>513 It really does sound similar. Or is it practically the same? I forgot the title too. But copyright lasts for 50 years after the author's death, so it's fine. It's not plagiarism. Quoting and reproducing it are free now.

http://www.tkma.co.jp/tjc/grass/index.html April 24: Grass Nation maxi-single release!

Is >>516 a Being employee?

>>519 It might sell better if the person in the back of the jacket were moved to the front.

>>519 Wrong thread?

Is “SPARKLE” pronounced “Spiral”? That's how it sounds from the flow of the conversation...

I just bought it and I'm listening to it now. It's absolutely the best!! I haven't finished it yet, but it's incredible!! The photos in the lyric booklet are great too!

>>523 It's “Sparkle,” surely.

“Naked Story,” yeah yeah—it's the best.

>>523 “Sparkle.” It means a shine or glimmer—of a jewel, talent, and so on. It refers to both the sparkle of the garnet jewel and the sparkle of GC's talent as artists.

Fake review “Wish★” was unexpected. You did well. Based only on the 1st album, I never would have thought these people could sing something like this. Also, when comparing “Last love song” with the rest of the album, I realized that its level of completion really stands out. More than anything, I felt the possibility that they could also go in this direction. My opinion might change after repeated listening, but it was a little disappointing that there were some slightly embarrassing songs, like the kind that appear as B-sides on singles. Personally, I value the freshness and give it 85 points. Maybe that's a little generous.

What would happen if I told my boss, “Mr./Ms. So-and-so, your head is sparkling”?

>>529 I have a pretty good idea who you're talking about, so I laughed hard.

Who is the idiot saying “Spiral”?

What would happen if I told my boss, “Mr./Ms. So-and-so, your head is spiraling”?

>>532 Nothing much, I guess?

What song is >>516 calling “Spiral”?

>>516 >Old fans who can only accept neo-acoustic will probably drift away. I also like Do As Infinity, but this feels kind of similar.

(=ﾟωﾟ)ﾉ Yo, Yurippe.

No problem if the direction changes.

Honestly, it doesn't have the same shock—or rather, emotional impact—as the 1st album's opening song, “Mizu no Nai...” Also, I wanted a paper jacket...

A perfect five out of five actually feels suspicious. At least make it 4.9.

It made me realize how incredible Yuri's singing ability is.

Was there a limited edition?

It's easily good enough to pass. If you demand too much, Nana-tan might start a solo career, Okamochi might start playing support shows for Kuraki, Furui-tan might start saying, “The futon is bread and I am cheese,” and Yurippe might start wearing sunglasses.

>>540 You already knew that if you listened to “first kaleidscope” and “Tell Me.”

Sometimes you have to return to your roots. That's what a true artist does. (lol) >>516 I reject the re-cut. “Spiral” should be a B-side.

I preferred the songs from the so-called new direction.

Currently playing on heavy rotation.

>>545 I also think it's easier to listen to than the previous albums, including the mini.

“Please, Forgive Me” is good. Despite being called C-level difficulty, she sings it very well.

The chorus of “Please, Forgive Me” is cool! (･∀･) But it doesn't get mentioned much.

>>544 No, seriously, what is “Spiral”? Which song are you talking about?

Even after moving in a new direction, the fact that they still don't pander to the masses is what makes them GC. That's what impressed me, speaking for myself.

>>548 Honestly, she sang it extremely well. >>550 “Suporuto.”

>>550 It's the GC song played on a program called “Suporuto.” It's an interesting song whose release hasn't been announced yet. There is a little information about it on the official site.

“Yuudachi no Niwa.”

>>552 >>553 Now I understand. Thanks.

I'd normally like “Sky Blue” to be re-cut. The B-sides could be “Yuudachi no Niwa” and “Spiral” (was that a song being considered for the album?).

Why wasn't “Yuudachi no Niwa” included on the 2nd album? I hope it's a good song.

Since I've bought all the singles, it strongly feels like a best-of album, and I can't shake the feeling that it lacks a little freshness. Filling tracks 1 through 3 with singles is a bit of a problem too.

Every time I listen to “Tell Me,” I wonder: why is Okamochi allowed to have a solo career while Nakamura isn't?

I should add that, listened to straight through, it is by no means a bad album.

They still have songs in reserve... What an amazing band.

A manufactured band.

All this talk of re-cuts... Don't you guys want to hear new songs?

Those three songs make me almost cry, then the album tracks that follow (except “Last love song”) save me, and finally “Holy ground” moves me to tears.

They should stop doing anime and game tie-ins for now.

One good thing about GC is that the bonus tracks don't turn out weird.

For now, I just reaffirmed how glad I am to be a GARNET CROW fan. “pray” is great! (･∀･) Thanks.

For now, Yurippe's brown hair and Okamochi's solo career should both stop.

>>567 Strongly, strongly agreed.

Ugh. I probably bought the CD first, but I didn't get a poster or anything. Which chain stores give out bonuses? Damn HMV... Σ(ﾟДﾟ)

GC has appeared in my ID━━━━━━(ﾟ∀ﾟ)━━━━━━ !!!!!

I don't care what they tie it in with, but I can't stand it invading the jacket too.

>>561 Every group has songs in reserve. There are famous bands with more than 300 songs in reserve. >>562 That's completely normal for a major-label act, isn't it?

>>570 Same here. I bought it first thing at Shindōdō and got nothing. It isn't a bonus from GC, so there's nothing we can do.

>>572 No, it is a problem. Otaku-oriented tie-ins are bad. But it may already be too late.

The 2nd album moved me so much I was trembling.

>>572 You mean the anime artwork on the singles, right? It really is a little uncool for adults.

All right, I'm going to open the CD I bought. I'm kind of nervous after reading everyone's impressions.

It's too precious to use up all at once, so I can only listen to the singles plus “Naked Story.” I'll listen to the rest little by little...

When I buy an album, I make a playlist of the non-singles and listen to it. What about it?

>>580 That's more or less heresy.

>580 And?

Update the Yuriny little story! No, please update it—I want to hear about the album.

>>583 The official release is tomorrow, so maybe it'll be updated tomorrow? That's what I'm thinking, anyway. What do you think?

Is “pray” just the English folk song “Greensleeves”? Where is the Japanese folk music in it? Well, Furui's work and Nana's talent make up for it.

>>583 SPARKLE-ny.

>>559 “Tell Me” is a solo activity, isn't it? Appearing at Mai Kuraki's live show is also a solo activity. It's not as if she hasn't done any.

Yuri Nakamura with her hair in a ponytail and her ears showing is a beauty who has seen a hundred battles.

>>588 Is she? Doesn't the maid-like outfit in the last photo look better?

I just listened to “Greensleeves,” and it's not exactly the same, YO! It sounds similar, but it's not an outright imitation. It's definitely a GC work.

>>589 True, that look was similar to the first interview on the Pan Factory DVD, and it was adorable.

I listened to the 2nd album too. The especially good songs were “pray,” “Sky Blue,” and “Holy ground.” This may be a layperson's comparison, but the 1st feels like the moon, while the 2nd feels like the sun. However, compared with the 1st, the printing on the front of the CD and the jacket seem rather half-hearted... Anyway, it has been chosen as my heavy rotation for commuting from tomorrow onward!!

I bought the album and listened to it today. “pray” was good, though it doesn't sound much like a folk song. “Holy ground” was good too. ...Is Okamoto a Christian? He came to a Christian church in my hometown before, did various things there, and promoted GARNET CROW CDs.

SPARKLE and Yurippe are spiraling.

For anyone who hasn't listened yet, search for “Greensleeves”—you'll find lots of MIDI files. Rather than calling it plagiarism, isn't it fun to investigate whether things sound similar? Copyright expired hundreds of years ago (assuming copyright even existed back then), so imitation is perfectly fine. Give it a listen.

“Greensleeves” is Japanese in a sense.

Ah, it really is similar... “Greensleeves.” I never would have noticed in my entire life if someone hadn't pointed it out.

I can't imagine there being 400 posts tomorrow. It looks like we'll reach the 25th with this thread still going.

I think the A-melody of “Sky Blue” sounds too much like the theme from Titanic...

(=ﾟωﾟ)ﾉ Yo, Yurippe.

Did I get 600?

>>580 An album has a story and works as one narrative when you listen through it from the first song. Choosing the track order is one of an artist's talents, and GC arrived at this order through trial and error, so let's listen to it in order.

(=ﾟωﾟ)ﾉ Yo showed up and stole my 600... (depressed)

>>555 Congrats on the matching-number get~ Press Ctrl+F together and search for “Spiral.” There's this site too. Sorry if you already knew: ttp://2ch.dyn.to/cgi-bin/namazu.cgi?key=%A5%B9%A5%D1%A5%A4%A5%E9%A5%EB&submit=search+%21%21&whence=0&dbname=off&max=20&whence=0&dbname=musicj If you still don't understand, activate your browser and press F1.

(=ﾟωﾟ)ﾉ Yo, GC.

What train did Nana-tan have in mind for that one-car train?

P.S. To Nan-tan: What's with the RPG...? People are going to think you're a game otaku again... Please stop.

I have a feeling it'll come in at number two on the daily chart.

>>608 Oda Kazumasa, Miyuki Nakajima, Mongol 800... There are a lot of tough competitors. We'll see what happens...

>>607 (ﾟДﾟ) Huh?

Who is Nantan?

What is Minamihashi?

Uh, I'm about to come with AZUKI! Splurt♪

Why did they put “Timeless” on the bonus track? There are already so many mellow songs; they could have put “flying” or a remix on it instead.

I bought it at Disc Pier Nippombashi. I hadn't preordered, but I got a poster with no problem! There was a sticker on the album saying “Poster included,” but some copies didn't have one, so the poster copies might run out today or tomorrow! Also, perhaps this is a Disc Pier Nippombashi-only event, but apparently there's a video concert this weekend. It's officially called a “video concert,” but the clerk told me, “It's a video-viewing event,” so I expect it will probably be a showing of the video clips released so far. Whenever a GIZA artist releases something, the Nippombashi store sets up a display outside. Since Mai Kuraki's release was on the same day, the outdoor display was split half and half (although the TV footage was Kuraki's). But when you go inside, the biggest display is GARNET's. Along with the previous releases, AZUKI's poetry books and other items were packed in, and there was TV footage too—the 2nd album PV was playing. (The Kuraki display was behind the GARNET one.)

The remix of “Timeless” makes me feel like I'm going to die around 3:20.

It's amazing how different things can be just because the store is different. At the store where I bought mine, there wasn't a single copy in the new-release section. I reluctantly bought the one copy I found in the G section with GC. Isn't that far too little promotion...? But the CD blew the anger right out of me.

The store where I bought mine had them stacked in a display. So “as scripted” was part of the lyrics to “Sky Blue.” The album has a generally gentle, or rather quiet, atmosphere. I like “pray.”

>>613 Are you planning to stick around here?

It started sounding good after about ten listens.

At the store where I bought mine, GC was in the “Manager's Highly Recommended” section. Of course, it had the largest number of copies on the shelves.

It's good! (・∀・) ...but around track 8 I started feeling like I had indigestion. The 2nd feels heavier than the 1st somehow. I'm expecting a festival tomorrow if it unexpectedly lands near the top of the daily chart. (lol)

>>621 For a moment I read that as “Nagato's Highly Recommended,” not “Manager's Highly Recommended.”

It's only a faint hope, but I'm hoping for number one on the daily chart. Of course, GC can't beat Oda in the weekly chart—Oda isn't an initial-sales-heavy artist; he's the type who grows over the weekend and the following week. GC still has few fans, so it's extremely front-loaded. Oda's stores have received far more copies, but today they felt about even in sales. (Oda may be slightly ahead.) Since 19 (two titles) is only counted on Saturday and Sunday, my prediction is: if things go well, 2nd for the week; 4th at worst. Mongol 800 may hold on among the already-released titles, so 5th at the absolute worst is possible. That's my impression from visiting more than a dozen record stores. Also, this is off-topic, but Hamasaki isn't selling at all (despite the poster), while Kuraki is selling. If the gods are on our side, GIZA might take number one on tomorrow's chart in both the single and album categories. (I also reported figures close to the actual sales for “Yume Mita Ato de” and correctly predicted number two on the daily chart.)

I was flipping through it absentmindedly and tore the lyric card. ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ Waaaaah! Now I'll have to... Yurippe's face... ahem, ahem.

(=ﾟωﾟ)ﾉ Yo, you did it, Yurippe.

>>625 If you spray it, people will buy a second copy for safekeeping, doubling the sales.

The album was number three at my regular Tsutaya! Long live GC!!

>>624 Unfortunately, the single won't make it. The shipment numbers are too different. The GaneCraw album probably has a chance, though.

Come to think of it, Yurippe's face looks like my girlfriend's. Especially Yurippe on the “flying” cover.

Hau!

“Suporuto,” bump! I really want them to get at least number one on the daily chart.

I want to hear “Spiral” on CD soon too.

>>629 I think both the album and the single are impossible...

Personally, I want it to keep selling for a long time. I hope it appears on the chart for more than ten weeks! It may be difficult, though...

(*´Д`)y―┛~~

Just like “Yume Mita Ato de” debuting at number two daily, I want to surprise the chart maniacs again this time!

I want to sniff Yurippe's silent fart. (*´Д`) Haa haa.

I drove for nearly an hour to buy it. I'm going to listen carefully.

If we added Oda Kazumasa and Mongol 800 to GaneCraw's lineup, number one would be guaranteed. Watching Oda's ridiculous commercial, I can believe he might actually do that. The age gap with the GaneCraw members seems too large, but Mini Moni and Ken Shimura have an even bigger gap. Mongol 800's slightly cheesy lyrics and AZUKI's lyrics seem like opposites, but combining opposites might produce some good lyrics.

The radio waves are humming♪

>>640 Do you want to sell that badly? (lol) Still, comparing the 1st album and its lyric booklet makes the change in direction obvious. On the 1st, each person had almost one photo, and they were mostly pulled-back shots; I felt the message was that they would compete through their music. This time everyone gets extreme close-ups, almost like a mini photo book, so they're showing that they look good visually too. They've simply brought out one of the weapons they already had; I don't consider that negative.

Maybe I'll buy the album... I'll buy it next week to help make it a long-running hit.

My lousy post was the one that got 600, huh? (lol) Sorry, 601.

My daily-chart prediction (or rather, hope) is: 2nd → 2nd → 3rd → 5th → 5th → 6th, which would mean 4th for the week. Kuraki will probably be 2nd.

I want to make Nana-tan say, “Please, forgive me!”

It will definitely sell a million copies.

>>646 What does Nana-tan have to apologize to you for? (lol)

(=ﾟωﾟ)ﾉ Yo, Yurippe. (=ﾟωﾟ)ﾉ Good job, Nana-tan and Furui-tan. (*´Д`)y―┛~~ Okamochi.

~ Celebrating the album release: GO→ edition ~

↑ How about this for the next thread title?

▲ GARNET CROW's little story, part 15: GO→ edition ▲

I finished listening to the album. So when is the next new song coming?

GARNET CROW feature on Mezamashi TV—bump!

Σ(´Д｀；) Gaaah! I wasn't watching...

▲ GARNET CROW, “As Scripted?” — part 15 ▲

>>654 Since it kept covering Janne Da Arc on “Tsuribaka,” I thought they wouldn't cover GC, so I left without setting a recording (depressed). I want details.

>>607 The RPG made me suddenly wonder: could the subtitle “Sky Blue, As Scripted” be based on Miyuki Miyabe's novel “R.P.G.”? Anyone who has read that novel, what do you think? I'd like to interrogate AZUKI about this for three minutes—not quite an hour.

“Yume Mita Ato de” — 42nd on the Oricon weekly chart! Cumulative points: 8,264.

Hara Taira awards it 8,264 points!!

Completely unexpected—in a good way. They've opened up a new frontier.

They made it onto TV, and the album is good too. Everything worked out wonderfully.

(ﾟﾛﾟﾉﾉ☆ Yes! (=ﾟωﾟ)ﾉ Yo, Yurippe.

An otaku-looking guy bought the album right in front of me. I was depressed, so I waited ten minutes before paying.

Today “Meccha E” is doing an introduction to every song, right? Will there be comments too?

(=ﾟωﾟ)ﾉ Yo, Yurippe.

I just bought it— but what caught my attention was how strangely slippery the parts of the lyric booklet with the lyrics are... Still, the content looks good. Of course!

I bought it! I just listened to the whole thing. By the way, doesn't AZUKI sitting on the stairs look like the fortune-teller from “Shomuni”?

>>668 Does she? You mean Yumiko Takahashi, right?

Is the daily chart out yet?

Ahh!! So many people have already bought the 2nd album... I have no money... and I still have to buy the singles. For now, I'm making do with the mini...

>>671 Calling Yurippe's mini “making do” is awfully greedy.

>>671 Unacceptable! (angry)

Second place, huh...

>>674 Where was that announced?

>>675 Lycos.

>>676 Confirmed. Exactly the scripted number-two spot on the daily chart. Oricon doesn't seem to have it yet.

The long, long story— You can feel it beginning to slide away, can't you? In this room, the sound of the noise resonates pleasantly—

Are you a rent-the-singles person or a buy-the-singles person?

>>677 Lycos and Excite relay Oricon's information (earlier than Oricon itself, actually). Yahoo and Nifty's charts, by the way, relay Planet's.

>>673 The mini is fine for now. I'll buy the 2nd one later...

>>679 I own them all. >>680 I see.

Nana's final comment in her Weekly TV Guide interview made me laugh: “...Because I'm an introverted artist.” (A joke.) Nana has all sorts of talents besides songwriting. Her photography is far beyond amateur level, and she has a good eye for composition and themes. She took all the back-cover photos so far. She's also the voice in the announcements at the end of all the TV commercials so far.

Oricon: number two.

>>683 She hasn't lived for 30 years for nothing, after all.

>>683 The jacket photo for “Futari no Rocket” really is amazing. With all her hobbies, Nana may be the most active member of introverted GC.

She can walk around Tokyo alone, too.

>>687 I'm just testing the theory that Yurippe clings to that unflattering brown hair to hide the fact that she's afraid to walk around Tokyo alone.

I want to reach 1000 posts today, so forgive me for hogging the thread with consecutive posts. Almost no CDs will be released from next week through May 15 because of the holiday stretch, so today's chart will turn into a marathon race. I hope GC and Mai both become long-running hits and manage to overtake each other on the daily chart at least once! By the way, Lycos updates on Saturdays and Sundays too, but what will happen during the holidays? Oricon doesn't update on weekends or public holidays, but will it publish the tally itself to the portals?

The Golden Week season has come around again...

Daily chart number two is hereeeee!

(=ﾟωﾟ)ﾉ Yo, daily-chart number two.

>>689 The formidable 19 is in the way...

Being number two can mean being close to number one or close to number three, and those are completely different. I'm looking forward to tomorrow's Planet速報; it will show the sales numbers for the 23rd and 24th.

>>693 This week's chart only runs through April 25. If only it were that simple...

The hairline on page 5 of the lyric booklet... Nana-tan is a real veteran. (((;ﾟДﾟ))) Shiver, shiver.

CD release festival: debuting at number two!! It's a festival—charge!!

http://cocoa.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/famicom/1018227396/ Posts 118, 120, and 121: GC is popular with the otaku crowd. Therefore ordinary people won't like them.

>>698 You knew an otaku-only thread surprisingly well.

19: 1st, “Music,” released 1999/07/23 — 990,090 copies 2nd, “Mugen Dai,” released 2000/07/26 — 656,000 copies 3rd, “up to you,” released 2001/09/27 — 283,820 copies If they reach about the same as Rina Aiuchi's 1st, it isn't impossible for them to win.

>>700 Seeing those numbers, I understand why they broke up.

>>698 Genuine otaku spotted. （ﾟ∀ﾟ）

>>698 (･∀･) Heh heh.

If they re-cut “Sky Blue” and appear on TV constantly, there's a chance of a long-running hit.

Nice one, >>698!! I hope that kind of steady evangelism bears fruit someday. (lol)

Yuri's high notes and falsetto stimulate men's brains and produce alpha waves.

>>705 That thread would obviously damage their image.

>>706 When you listen to “Please, Forgive Me” directly through your ears, the sound stimulation and Yurippe stimulation spiral together.

“pray” moved me, “Naked Story” encouraged me, “Sky Blue” refreshed me, “wish★” made someone who had never danced start dancing, “Please, Forgive Me” made me think rock was good too, and “Holy ground” brought me to tears and swept me up in a storm of emotion. I'm going to follow GARNET CROW until the day they eventually break up. Just testing the idea.

>>709 Don't talk about something so unlucky as breaking up on the happy day of their number-two finish! But if it happens, I'll let solo singer Yuri Nakamura take me in.

The day they eventually break up—ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ Waaaaah!

They used their good looks as a weapon on TV, but GARNET still has plenty of weapons in reserve. For example, Okamoto's sweet voice. They could include an Okamoto solo song instead of a B-side or a third-track remix, and draw in even more female fans. That would be after Yuri has become an unshakable songstress, though...

Okamochi secretly sings chorus, you know.

>>712 I remember someone on a personal website who wasn't interested in GC but liked Okamoto. They listened to some pretty obscure songs.

>>712 >An Okamoto solo song No thanks—long live remixes. Speaking of sweet voices, is the sweet male chorus on “blue bird” Okamochi? That part is great (・∀・), but that's a separate matter from an Okamoto solo.

Oda Kazumasa and 19 will probably be bought by people other than their fans, so it'll be tough. GC feels like the kind of act only its fans buy, like Johnny's. Singles are cheap, so people may buy them out of curiosity, but albums are expensive.

If only Okamochi were handsome enough that female fans would fly into a rage whenever he and Yurippe appeared on the same screen. Stop making that bullied-kid face, Okamochi.

>699 That made me laugh so hard.

>>717 The latent single-buying demographic that couldn't bring itself to buy singles because the back covers were embarrassing will buy them.

>>717 GC fans = Johnny's fans = Is Okamochi a Johnny's-type idol? (lol)

>>720 My life has been one of continuing to buy singles without making eye contact with the clerk.

Oricon seems to have updated too. Congratulations! Daily number two!

So, “Yume Mita Ato de”...

Listening to the preview killed my desire to buy it. Sorry.

You don't need the “を.”

Now everyone, together: (ﾟﾛﾟﾉﾉ☆ Yes! (=ﾟωﾟ)ﾉ Yo, Yurippe.

(ﾟﾛﾟﾉﾉ☆ Yes! (=ﾟωﾟ)ﾉ Yo, Yurippe. Celebrating daily number two: GO→ edition!

I love the “made it this far” part of “Tooku Made Kita na”♪

>>718 I think Okamoto is pretty handsome, actually. But I don't like men with sweet singing voices...

I'm thinking of buying “Mysterious Eyes,” but is the back cover Conan?

Okamochi would probably be cute if he were a woman.

>>731 I remember that wasn't the case.

The “nee♪” in “blue bird” is less “I like it” and more “I'm swooning.”

>>658 I'm a huge Miyuki Miyabe fan, and of course I've read R.P.G. I don't remember it at all, though. Was there really something like that?

>>731 (･∀･) A marriage on the back cover?

>>735 I see. I went and bought R.P.G. today. But it looks ordinarily interesting, so that's fine.

Didn't Miyuki Miyabe make a guest appearance in the period drama based on Natsuhiko Kyogoku's “Kousetsu Hyaku Monogatari”?

Correction: “Didn't she?”

>>738–739 Nice ID. A strange GC.

I like “A crown” and “Eien ni Houmure.”

Number two on the daily chart, huh... Honestly, number one really was impossible... If they had actually gotten number one, there would have been a festival. But... well, it's fine. It's only the first day. And as a fan, I think it turned out pretty nicely. It's GIZA, and they probably didn't do much promotion. I'll always support you, so keep at it, Kuraki.

>>742 GC fans are gentlemanly and kind, so I'll point out the mistake: 　　　　　　　　　　　Kuraki?!

Tomorrow is payday! At last, my first paycheck. I was going to use it to buy SPARKLE... but I bought the album today. I could do without “call my name,” honestly. I wish “Timeless” had gotten a different remix... I have a good feeling about “pray.”

700 posts in three days... Amazing. Will we reach the next thread tomorrow?

>>745 We'll get there today!

>>745 It would be embarrassing if we didn't make it by midnight today.

GC has appeared in my ID━━━━（ﾟ∀ﾟ）━━━━!!!!! It even has the 2 in it.

I'm posting repeatedly because my ID is GC. The inclusion of two “Timeless” tracks has sparked debate, but I suspect putting two versions in was Furui-tan's decision. Of all the singles this time, “Timeless” is the one that retains the aftertaste of the 1st album most strongly. I think it may be a quiet act of resistance to the top-down order to change direction. If I don't believe that, I'll quit being a GC fan. I mean, I liked the gloomy GC of the past.

That's certainly how it feels. “Timeless” is my favorite among the singles included this time. The remix is good too.

Is that Okamochi singing chorus at the very end of “Sky Blue”?

>>707 This thread is an otaku thread too, if you want to call it that, YO. I can't believe residents of this thread have infiltrated the console-games board...

>>744 “First paycheck”... What an unpleasant phrase... I'm depressed; I may as well die. >>752 I'm a resident of the console-games board. Sorry...

>>741 Those two are my favorites too. It would be a waste to leave them on an indie album. >>749 I'm swooning over your positive way of thinking.

>754 Where is the indie album sold? Do ordinary CD shops carry it?

Gloomy GC is the best! (･∀･)

>>749 But if I remember correctly, Nakamura is the one who likes “Timeless Sleep” (especially the remix), while Furui is the one who likes “call my name,” right? >>755 You can definitely find the indie album through HMV's online store.

>757 Thanks. I'm off to get it.

>757 The “Timeless” remix is honestly great! （・∀・） >Favorite Music Otaku Magazine did say something like that. The post in 749 was already just wishful thinking, anyway.

About “call my name”: “It was personally a song I wanted to make a single. When I heard Nakamura's demo, I made it right away before I forgot it.” (Furui) “Furui-tan's passion exploding.” (Nakamura) “Furui-san's image.” (Okamoto)

All right, I'm going to listen again. Lately I've started to think Nakamura's voice is really attractive.

Though her singing style is the same as ever...

>>759 I was swooning over Nakamura saying she wanted to listen to the “Timeless Sleep—Remix—” while watching the Leonid meteor shower.

>>763 So in the end, it's not about the song—it's about Yurippe. (lol)

>>764 No, no, I like the song “Timeless” too. Especially the remix included on the single.

Let me say this clearly: I hate “Timeless Sleep”! It makes Richard Marx's “Now and Forever” flash through my head. Also, when the title is simply used as the chorus, it feels incredibly cheap. And I have some questions about how that English chorus connects to the lyrics that follow.

I think the next thread's post #2 should list where the mini-album is sold.

Let me say this clearly: I also... (and so on).

The “ha” changed to “too”... I don't like the singles all that much either, but I really like the remixes. They have a kind of floating quality.

Supplement to >>770: I mean the remix included on the single.

I hereby retract what I said earlier. The “Timeless” remix is good. It felt very different after listening carefully; the first time, it struck me as something like “call sky mix.” The “Mysterious” remix is good too.

For the people who like AZUKI, “Holy ground” >>777 is approaching like a trap.

Thanks to everyone who agreed with me! It seems Hanshin also added a victory bouquet to the spectacular daily number-two finish. (lol)

“Call my name” feels like a song made by the chorus, for the chorus, and because of the chorus.

777!

Yurippe 777.

Timeless album-remix defender: The gloomy feeling around 3:22 is great! (・∀・) Okamochi's chorus is great! (・∀・) The emotion in “hatred” is great! (・∀・)

I almost got 777 with an ordinary post. That was close.

Miguel Sa Pessoa is participating again this time... For some reason I'm drawn to him. (lol) The “Mysterious Eyes” remix is absolutely incredible! ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ Waaaaah!

Since “Timeless Sleep” was being discussed, I listened to it just now. My impression: (鬱ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ Waaaaah!

>>735 Thinking about it calmly, I may have overstated the source theory. I did think both words, “as scripted” and “sky blue,” were fairly central to the story, though. I planned to check at the library today, but the book was checked out. By the way, I'm a fan of hers too and have read most of her novels. It's off-topic, but my favorite is “Kasha.” Some people say the ending is abrupt... >>737 So you went and bought it... I hope there's a part in the story that makes you feel, “The scripted sky blue is here━━━━（ﾟ∀ﾟ）━━━━!!” I enjoyed the novel well enough, but sorry if you find it boring.

Everyone, together: (ﾟﾛﾟﾉﾉ☆ Yes! (=ﾟωﾟ)ﾉ Yo, Yurippe.

(=ﾟωﾟ)ﾉ Yo.

I happened to do the (=ﾟωﾟ)ﾉ Yo right after >>783. (lol)

>>780 In my ranking: “Until I Reach Your House”: single version > kaleidoscope version “Futari no Rocket”: remix > original “Timeless”: groove more “call sky” mix ≧ flow-ing surround mix > original “Mysterious”: remix ≧ original “in little time”: (・∀・) Great! It's not that I dislike Furui's arrangements, though...

>>785 A trap disguised as a coincidence.

(=ﾟωﾟ)ﾉ Yo, “Yuudachi no Niwa.”

“call my name” shocked me when I first heard it. I never expected to be so moved by a single I borrowed along with Komatsu and Rumania. Lately, GaneCraw has become my leading hitter.

▲ (=ﾟωﾟ)ﾉ Yo — SPARKLE on sale now — GARNET CROW Part 15 ▲

>>789 Why only GIZA? Don't you listen to anyone else?

(=ﾟωﾟ)ﾉ Yo, “Meccha E” all-songs introduction.

Honestly, am I the only one who thinks the lyrics to track 7, “Sky Blue,” are low quality? It sounds like something some second-rate idol would sing. For track 8, “wish★,” I feel like saying, “Go die!”... Track 9 is a little... “pray” and “Holy ground” are high quality, though... My image of GC has changed a lot. ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ Waaaaaaaah!

>>791 I've liked the Being crowd for a long time. Other than ZARD and Komatsu, I don't feel like listening to much else, and buying anything is completely out of the question. But since “call my name,” I've tried to buy GaneCraw whenever possible.

(=ﾟωﾟ)ﾉ Everyone's taste is different, so there's nothing to be done—yo.

>>789 Strongly agreed. I like “call my name” too. (And so on.)

This was my first time hearing “Last love song,” and it was good.

Is the reason Okamoto's album has only eight tracks (six in substance) that the company decided a full album might end up better than GC's?

(=ﾟωﾟ)ﾉ Is the idea that Okamoto should establish himself as a solo act?

Eight hundred.

>>793 It seems my taste is the exact opposite of yours.

Let's try to reach 1000 in the next hour!

>>802 For now: (=ﾟωﾟ)ﾉ Yo.

(・∀・) Impossible!

(・∀・) Heh heh.

Yuri's festival accompaniment—Kobayashi.

(・∀・) Let's go, YO!

You guys, think of a thread title.

Anyone lurking right now—has anyone started a new thread?

There was a feature on “Meccha E.” They made a clip for each song; it was pretty good, though a little short.

“Meccha E” introduced every song, and I was surprised that every album track had a PV. I'm glad I recorded it. The “Naked Story” and “Holy ground” PVs were especially good.

There hasn't been a song with a hook since “flying.” Honestly, I'm on the fence about whether to listen to the 2nd album. But the promotional material and jacket still have great colors, lol.

I've been saying for an hour now: release a collection of the PVs!

▲ “As Scripted? Currently Struggling!! GARNET CROW 15” ▲ I'll request that one for now. The old #1 always used to choose safe thread titles, didn't he? I think he understood very well what kind of reaction each title would get. You rarely hear anyone say, “I hate this thread title!”

The PVs became full-length starting with “Timeless,” right? “call my name” and “Last love song” end partway through, don't they?

Give me some material! Splurt♪

As of right now, stores that received small shipments are selling out one after another (seriously). This looks like it could reach 100,000 initial sales and 300,000 cumulative!!!

>>819 （・∀・）Go back to the Komatsu thread!!

2nd album — Yuri Nakamura's liner notes 1. “Yume Mita Ato de” This is a song I've been holding onto in this arrangement for about a year. It's a very important song that I've cherished, so I hope you'll listen to it carefully... It's a song that suits spring. 2. “call my name” I made this because I wanted to do a grand-scale ballad. It's actually Furui-san's absolute favorite song. 3. “Timeless Sleep” I like it. I sang it in a way that would make it more lyrical. I thought the PV, with its very stylish black-and-white contrast, was cool too. 4. “pray” This was composed under the influence of Japanese things—folk songs and other classical material, including foreign ethnic music. I sang it consciously using distinctive vocal phrasing and changes in dynamics. 5. “Naked Story” It's a very positive, bright, and energizing song. Because the sound has a strong sense of forward motion, it might fit perfectly while you're driving. 6. “Last love song” I actually injured myself right before recording the vocals for this song, so I sang it while in a great deal of pain. It's a very memorable song for me. 7. “Sky Blue” It's a song with a very transparent, fresh feeling. I like it a lot. I catch myself humming, “Backflip~,” to it. 8. “wish★” It's an unusually dance-oriented song (!) that you can dance to. I played around with it. Recording it was also really fun, and I enjoyed making it. Doesn't it raise your energy a lot? Everyone, dance along! 9. “Please, Forgive Me” This was one of the most difficult GARNET CROW songs. It's a C-class difficulty song. The style is rock-flavored, a guitar-driven number. 10. “Holy ground” I think it may move you more and more each time you listen to it. I think it turned out really well. It was the last song I recorded for the album. It feels like a song for the ending, but I think it's also a song that gives you the strength to start the next chapter. — Bonus tracks — 1. “Mysterious Eyes — dry flavor of ‘G’ mix” This arrangement has a completely different character from the single version, which makes it very interesting. Please listen to both and compare them. 2. “Timeless Sleep — Flow-ing surround mix” It's subtly different from the “groove more ‘call sky’ mix” remix on the single. The vocals are subtly different too. Can you tell the difference?

The new thread is up━━━━━━!! Isn't that too fast??

We could have used up the thread by splitting that into several posts.

http://music.2ch.net/test/read.cgi/musicj/1019658493/

Now we have to get this one to 900 quickly, or the new thread will be vandalized.

Please bump it.

>>825 That's too fast, YO! ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ How are we supposed to use up the remaining 170 posts, YO?! ヽ(`Д´)ﾉ

>>823 At least we avoided the worst-case scenario of the old #1 not being around when it mattered. The thread title is fine too. (´ー`)y~~ >>819 If you want material that badly, I'll give you some. Why did you start coming to—or rather, staying in—this thread?

>>815 Agreed. It also feels like there isn't a song that breaks through on both the music and lyrics sides.

I haven't seen Rugby Machine around since before or after Komiyama appeared.

>828 Once we pass 900, the thread will at least save face, so we only need about 70 more.

So, thanks for starting the thread. (Though posting a “thanks for starting the thread” message feels odd.) Bump.

>>814 Seriously?! I wanted to see it...

>>831 We haven't seen Rugby lately, have we?

Suspicion: Komiyama = Rugby Machine.

Rage... *cough, cough*

Me → ﾌﾟﾆｭ( ´ｰ`)σ)Д`) yeah ← Yurippe

Write-post error after write-post error. We're doomed.

I demand a parliamentary interrogation of Rugby Machine!

Rage = Rugby = Komiyama.

Rageby Machine.

We couldn't get past 900 yesterday...

It's the 25th...

“A new morning has come.” In the end, we didn't reach 900.

(・∀・) Impossible!

But everyone worked hard. Though posts 100–300 are completely broken. (lol)

(・∀・) Yuri!

I bought it!!!! GARNET CLONE's “SPARING — Long○ Blue, As Scripted” The 1st album's “In a GOZA Without Money” was good too, but this one is pretty good as well!! My favorites are “After Seeing Muneo” and “Pakured Story”!

Only 50 more! (・∀・)

“Suporuto,” bump.

“Meccha E” ON AIR, bump!

Only 48 more! (・∀・)

>>849 “After Seeing Muneo” made me laugh.

(・∀・) Two by twoーーーーーー!

I want one of those frog umbrellas for cheering on the Yakult Swallows.

I predict the team with more people listening to SPARKLE will win.

(・∀・) Goooood moooorning!

“Suporuto,” bump.

(・∀・) A meaningful♪

(・ゝ・) Muri-o-chan.

(・∀・) Tap Takada!

The lyrics to “Holy ground” are so depressing...

Listening to Yurippe's singing voice makes me think of “Dororon Enma-kun.”

“Looking back, we were full of holes...”

♪ Strange, bizarre, bizarre—full of monsters~

♪ Japan is a dumping ground for monsters~

Was GARNET CROW's appearance on H.P. Kyoto already mentioned?

Does “pray” have a melody like phone-hold music?

(・∀・) Supersonic Tap Takada!
