Yeah i thought Airi would get a pb first now that Megumi left because the first i thought would be their two stars lol

Nah, my money is on Airi. I'm actually surprised she wasn't first.

me,too... cause Risako's first of Berryz Kobo, i really really thought Airi will be the 1st of C-ute. not only because both they're cute and their birthday are almost on the same day~ :)
ok~ i went to far. It's a GREAT news that Maimi has a solo PB! I can't wait to see previews and the whole PB

Post by: Blu-Cherri on April 16, 2007, 08:54:38 AM
^I think a few people thought Momo would have the first because of her crazy wotas, which i think is like Maimi getting one before Airi.

Maimi's my favourite so I'm happy ^^ not that'd I'd buy a PB with a girl in a bikini but still :p lol

Post by: vscarecrow on April 18, 2007, 02:46:05 PM
Now that Megumi's gone, I was also expecting Airi first. Maimi's not my fav but it's a great start that someone from C-ute starts releasing solo photobooks.

Totally sucks that the release date got pushed back, but maybe we can expect previews next week? They usually leak a couple days before the actual release date anyway...

Am I the only one getting screwed around for this book? The damn thing is even on sale at Amazon now (a day early...) and they still haven't shipped mine, despite the fact I pre-ordered it. What the hell is going on?!

^I'm still gathering a bigger order since amazon charges craploads now for international shipping, but it looks like they're giving a 2-3 day availability estimate for Maimi's pb. :/

Well, Yesasia has This product is expected to release on May 19, 2007. lolz.

Now that I tried to make the order from amazon, I got this for Maimi's pb:

Estimated ship date for this item: 2007/5/18 - 2007/6/1

No way. :( I saw the thing on YA and can't find it on HMV so I figured I'd had to go with Amazon on this one even though their shipping kills me (add the customs fee and taxes on that and it will ruin me). Tried to place an order, but got the same response as you Stryfe (obviously). What is this? It's like the world's trying to stop us from getting this PB. :(

It's up for order on HMV (http://www.hmv.co.jp/product/detail/2547844 (http://www.hmv.co.jp/product/detail/2547844)). It takes 7-10 days to get shipped out. Still, thats better than Amazon's killer shipping rates  :k-crazy:

They now always do international express shipping via DHL, that is why the shipping price is so high (currently tracking a shipment with Maki's 'ROCK' concert, its close :))

Ooh I panicked there and just placed the order. Let's see what happens. For a moment I thought they'd charge extra for splitting my order into two shipments but that isn't really the case...

Lol @ delivery estimate. Now Maimi's pb has 3-5 weeks estimate on availability. Guess I made it just in time.

I think Amazon does not know when and how many PBs they will get from the publisher. The estimate on availability could change very soon.
Actually I've seen it happen with a Takahashi Ai PB that went from not available to 3-5 weeks to in stock within 24 hours.

My PB arrived....

:dizzy: :fainted: :imdead:

*kind of describes the process I went through*

The book is gorgeous. There aren't actually all that many bikini/swimsuit shots, pretty much all the ones that have leaked so far are just about it. Most of the outfits are gorgeous, Maimi looks gorgeous, it looks like the usual H!P PB fare. A few random blurry shots, a few shots of just her school bag or whatever. But there's already some amazing confidence in her considering this is her first PB. It looks a lot more natural and relaxed than Risako's felt.

Overall, amazing :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart:

The Photobook of Risako was not Natural, she's pretty but that's all. Maimi's more natural then Risako

Yes...I agree with you. Risako's PB looks gorgeous but not that natural... I wanna see more natural face about a 12 year-old girl, too mature is not always good.  I think Maimi's PB will be a different one. Maimi's 15 years old and~ wear swimsuit or something are much better than a girl who is super kawaii but too young to wear...

just saw the pb, it was really beautiful.  Maimi is really beautiful, she really does look natural in it.  natural beauty shines thru.  she looks relax and happy.  it doesn't look like she overdoing anything. I never really notices her before, or any of the H!P kids really, but this really does it for me.

Finally got the chance to see it, and wow, Maimi is a really beautiful. I knew she was, but not at this level. Risako PB was kind of forced, being the youngest, having to lead most songs, and then getting a pb must be hard, she felt awkward in some shots. But Maimi is naturally confident of herself, always, you can sense that in the So Cute PB, and of course, when she performs. My fav. shots were the ones with the blue dress (w/red flowers) and the white dress :heart:. But, unlike Risako's, I feel that this first PB is an unfinished chapter.
