So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

How did I miss that one? Perhaps because it is music for a game???

Listening to the samples it isn't their best work IMO. Might skip that one.

^ I guess I should not have used "Love Live!" in the name because it is only about the group μ's and not about the game/anime of Love Live. I have corrected the description now.

Thanks. That must be why I didn't see it either, my searches are all for LoveLive!, not u's. And apparently no one who shops for LoveLive! like I do on amazon bought that disc as it never showed up on any of the recommended lists or related products or "other people bought" lists that they constantly throw in my face...

Whew, at first I thought you were talking about this song

It can't be, because the song is very good imo! :) This is an additional for Vol 3 Blu-ray

The ranking pretty much held stable throughout the week. Love Live vol 2 did get over SAO vol 7 in the last couple days, showing its usual strong tail end. What I'm interested in is whether Love Live 2 can reach 20K tomorrow.

GaruPan came back pretty strong after the restocking issue has been cleared a bit. I'm waiting to see how much both volumes will surpass SAO 7

JoJo 4 had surged over Love Live for 2 days, then downed again. Not sure if it's due to stocking issues of JoJo or Love Live, but that's pretty interesting.

Finally, Eva 3.33 is still running strong. If no big title is coming out next week, Eva can hold the 1st rank three weeks in a row xD Even though sales for vol 3 is down, this should be a congratulatory datum.

Btw, thanks you Ejc and @symbv, glad you are back :)

^ hmm.. you're right. 18K is a closer figure. But in the long run, I think 20K is reachable.

No, this album:
http://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B00BGE4OWY

Samples can be played. Not sure how much freedom they had with the music or lyrics or if they were just singing the stuff but listening to the samples did not make me want to add it to my u's collection.

^ listened to all the samples; you've made the right decision. The vocal is too soft for my tastes, the vibes and energy is nothing like other Muse's songs. Even though it said featuring Muse, I barely recognize their voices. Maybe they had to appear in different manerisms to fit this particular production. That said, Track 3 and 4 are pretty good.

Well they're not μ's as μ's, they're μ's as seiyuu for the game characters.

So basically the real seiyuu aren't acting out the μ's characters, they're acting out the μ's characters acting out the game characters.

It kind of makes my head spin no matter how many times I think of it, haha.

Does this sound better? XD
If I interpret you right, Honoka is now a Seiyuu for the game. Lol real group like AKB48 can be Seiyuu, why wouldn't real/fictional group like Muse?! This can be a nice plot for Love Live season 2.

^ sure, that's probably easier to understand, haha. I still haven't completely figured out this whole 2.5-D idol thing!

Yeah, the voice credits (for the characters voiced by μ's at least) are listed like, "Ryuuzaki Crouwel (CV: Kosaka Honoka (CV: Nitta Emi))." I found this out a few weeks ago when I stumbled across the album on iTunes and I still think it's pretty strange to see. XD

I haven't played the game so I'm not really sure, but I THINK Nico managed to nab the female lead? Man, she'd be so damn smug about that, ahaha.
