this will be perfect for Xmas  but I still need to buy the Budokan concert, at this rate I wil never catch up on releases 

[THUNDERDUCK]

Epic-ly EXPENSIVE.  That's almost a car payment for me.

Epic-ly EXPENSIVE.

It depends...

- Basically it's 10 blu-ray discs for around 200 euro = 20 per disc.
- BABYMETAL's blu-ray is one disc for 55 euro.
- Momoiro Clover's latest has 4 blu-ray discs for around 95 euro = just under 25 euro per disc.

Furthermore, the AKB48 box comes with more goodies in the form of five photos and a 132 page booklet!
With that in mind, it actually offers pretty decent value for money compared to its competition.

Babymetal's concerts are 60 minutes on average.
AKB48's concerts are easily 150 minutes.

^ I was trying to gloss over that fact 
Thing is, Japanese media is just really expensive compared to Western media. I think the BABYMETAL and AKB box sets are probably about the same price for length of footage...


Anyway, tracklist for the UNIT DISCS is out:

But unfortunately is in an image form which makes romanising it harder...

M16. Mushi no Ballad (Miyazawa Sae)

I found some interesting info about Sae's Mushi no Ballad

From twintower-love

Report about Sae singing Mushi no Ballad @ Tokyo Dome 3rdDay 2013.08.24
- Sae kept the chorus background music with full Sayaka voice. So when she sang, people said it sounded like the two of them were singing together.
- On the 1st day Sayaka was standing on the main stage singing Mushi no Ballad. Today Sae was standing on the sub stage, she moved toward the center stage and facing the main stage while singing. Report had it that it made it look like she was singing looking at Sayaka standing from the main stage. Together with Sayaka’s voice in the back ground, it felt like a duet with two of them.

Sae:
Tokyo Dome 3rd day finished. Singing solo at Tokyo Dome, I felt like a dream. I was so happy ；＿； I think there won’t be a second time like this. Because I think this would be the first but also the last time, I sang with all my heart. I chose “Mushi no Ballad”. I’m so happy I can be the first one singing this after Sayaka graduated ；＿； Sayaka thank you！！

Sae:
A secret of Mushi no Ballad today。。。
Because I wanted to sing with Sayaka, even for just a little bit, so I had the volume for Sayaka’s voice singing “Ah~~~~” in the chorus turned up 1.5 times louder compared to normal ♥♥♥
Sayaka:
Thanks for your hard work ^ ^✨
Ah, you revealed the secret?

Sayanee’s mobame after the show had that:
During rehearsal, everytime Sae heard Sayaka’s voice from the background music, she cried so much she couldn’t sing at all. And seeing that, even Sayanee felt painful.

But as we all saw in Tokyo Dome first day and today, Sae didn’t cry in the concert. Because she promised that she would smile on stage.
