Υour CD collection! XD

[Seasonreaper]

I should probably post an update of my collection, since I've gotten quite a lot of stuff recently. That and I still have no photo of my whole collection.

[Seasonreaper]

OK then, a full, up to date set of pictures of my Kalafina collection. It's impossible to fit into one photo, at least with the space I have available, so it'll have to be a set. This is actually the first time anyone other than myself will have seen my collection in full. Not even my friends or parents have seen everything. Overall I'm happy with my collection and part of the reason I'm doing this now is that I've reached such a stage that almost everything I want will have to be sourced via auctions, a lot of which is going to be hard to come by. There's only six items on my immediate to get list that are readily available and already out.

OK, so I've got every b-side covered here now. Still uncertain as to whether I really need the remainder of the singles or the Best albums, might pick them up at some point in the future for completion's sake. Red Moon and Consolation both signed at Japan Expo 2014. Should be getting the Budokan lives through on release. I misplaced my copy of Hikari no Senritsu and didn't notice when taking the initial photo and it's dark now, so separate pic.

To get:
-Seventh Heaven LE
-Progressive LE to replace the RE, since it has bonus DVD footage I forgot about and I want that

Ever since I was a kid I used to love collecting t-shirts. This has not changed much. Luckily I really like a lot of Kalafina's shirt designs, although they aren't easy to come by for the most part. "Consolation" Special Live 2013 was picked up at Japan Expo. I'd give a kidney for a Door or any of the BEST designs I swear.

To get:
Progressive Live 2009

Got most of what I want here, not too bothered about the single promotional posters, although I'll jump on a To the Beginning one if I ever get a chance because I love those outfits. Will name firstborn after whoever sells me a near-pristine Seventh Heaven promotional poster. The BEST set are currently unopened other than taking this photo and initial checking, since I want them perfect for framing at a later date, and the Consolation set are displayed. I plan to get another set of each to fulfil their respective other purpose since those things are god damn gorgeous. The After Eden promotional poster is currently in practically perfect condition so I'm thinking about getting it professionally framed at some point. It'll be expensive but worth it.

Miscellaneous

-Kadokawa Mook Special ~ Kalafina
-Kalafina Calendar 2014
-Kalafina Calendar 2015
-Kalafina autograph board from Japan Expo 2014
-Kalafina BOX "Kimi no Gin no Niwa" (sans t-shirt, that's in the shirt pic)

Various other stuff. That framed Consolation dress pic is actually the reverse photo from the cover of the 2014 calendar trimmed down a little (some purists might want to kill me for doing that, but it's too beautiful a photo not to frame, sorry). I do have the rest of the calendar still intact but I might do similar things to the other pages since there's some really nice photos in there, same with the 2015 one when the year's out. The book cover from the Kalafina BOX is pointless and I'll never use it, almost forgot about it entirely. I've never used the towel either but that's because I don't want to stain it really, it's soft and pretty. Autograph was from Japan Expo 2014, there's actually two in that frame since I haven't given the other one away yet, mostly because I'm unsure of how to transport it safely and I have two people I can't decide between to give to.

To get:
Not much really. Might see if I can pick up a copy of the 2012 calendar for harvesting as that has some lovely photos in it too. I guess if I get the To the Beginning BOX for the shirt that has some other stuff in it too which will fit into this category. Am still tempted by the BEST mugs, too. Honestly a little tempted by the Kalafina stocking set too even if just to be able to fit into stupid Christmas dress occasions with a Christmas Kala shirt. And I'm still thinking about that Kalafina-related tattoo

 

[Hime_Wakana]

Omg your collection!! I want the t-shirts too

 

[ShadowAlex]

Ah I forgot I also own Seventh Heaven and Magia the only single albums I do own.

 

[Moonlight04]

@Seasonreaper I drooled while I scanned through your post.

Dang, I wish I had all those!

 

[Seasonreaper]

@Moonlight04 Hah, well this is what happens when I don't really spend money on anything other than Kalafina stuff for a year or so I guess . I have spent money elsewhere (new TV, for example) but my disposable income has been 80% or so focussed on this collection.

I have just ordered another set of the Consolation LIVE mini posters, both BEST BDs and a copy of Kalafina Record, actually, so I can cross those off my list. That'll likely be my final expense of the year until my Japan visit in October. I'm just going to spend all that time wondering what the 2015 tour goods are going to be so I can decide what to buy when I get there .

 

[LianaIlia36]

^I just went through everything I have today too, and it is a lot, but you have some very special posters and things I wish I had. *sigh* If only I had a job right now. Well, I am making money but that's per month and with things coming out every month, my bank account it low. heh But here are the photos of my collection, that I did for the Yuki Bday project if we can still submit them that is.

The entire thing (except for the Kalafina keychains, which I have Red Moon Live Black and Gold 5th Anniversary from ACen:

Just Kalafina:

Postcards:

Posters (just have 2):

Kalafina Autographs (5th book and Lacrimosa single):

Anime Boston pamphlets and plane tickets:

And special albums and DVDs (only missing #1 of the Kara no Kyoukai special editions):

I will try and write everything out later. It will take too much time and I am so tired now.

 

[Kugayama]

@Liana_Ilia wow... (that reminds me, it would be interesting if this site could support members tagging which CD's / videos they own and which live shows they've attended).

 

[george1234]

^ Υes and it would make the ones who havent jealous :P

You can always put a list with small font in your signature

@Liana_Ilia OMG I dont think anyone here owns as much as you :D

 

[LianaIlia36]

^Seasonreaper has a lot more shirts and postcards than I do, but I do have more cds. I just love Yuki too much. It's mainly all I listen to, even though I do love other artists too, and have many other Japanese and American/English cds. This doesn't even include the anime that I have that she did the music to, but I figured that was a given with the soundtracks. I will write my list soon in a spoiler probably heh.

 

[Seasonreaper]

I would say 'oh but that's just my Kalafina stuff' but then I remembered all I have outside that is the Madoka music collection, the first .hack//sign OST, the Petit Cossette OST, Fiction, Elemental and a YK Vol #8 shirt. But yes, you do have a lot more CDs.

 

[sutekinanijinoiro]

Stuff from the package that I had to claim from customs :/ But aal iz well, at least I got them... and I only had to pay 20% of the actual cost @_@

ohaider lazy photoshop

 

[sutekinanijinoiro]

Now starting to buy stuff from the oldest releases. My collection is beautifully piling up, slowly but surely :3

But how they packed it is just beyond me XDDD I always laugh and get a little annoyed at packaging that don't seem to want you to open them @_@

 

[Yuliana]

Anoo~
Where I can buy Kajiura-sama's CD from online site?
I really really want to buy all Kajiura-sama's CD ^^
Can you please tell me?

There are many options around. I'm quite sure you're from abroad so your best bet is CDJapan. There's also YesAsia which might be cheaper for you, but just search for reviews online to see what's better for you. Take note of where you come from as well, as some shipping options might be good or bad, depending on where you live.
For other things that may not be available from these sites, you can try proxy services like FromJapan, in which they order the product on your behalf, then ship it to you.
There's also forwarding services available, but this only works if you have a working knowledge of Japanese, as most sites are written in the native language.

 

[Seasonreaper]

CDJapan is what you want for most things, everything that's available still should be on there and it's easy to use and ships near enough worldwide. A lot of Kajiura's soundtracks and all of Kalafina and FictionJunction's stuff is there at least, except Hikari no Senritsu which I'm still confused about being out of print. If you want special editions and whatnot there are a few available but most you'll have to use a proxy service and get via auction. Their shipping isn't exactly cheap (especially if you want books) but they're reliable and I've never had any problems with them.

 

[Insidia]

HMV or CDJapan for brand new listings/pre-orders.
Wouldn't really recommend YesAsia.

Other sites such as Amazon JP & Yahoo Auction JP



Worst case scenarios, use a proxy as mentioned above.

Edit: @Seasonreaper Do you custom make your frames for the Kalafina Posters? I have 5 in tubes still ...

 

[Kugayama]

I was able to get See-Saw – Kimi wa Boku ni Niteiru just before it went out of print from http://www.play-asia.com and found them to be reliable and shipping items well-packed. If I can only get something via amazon.co.jp I'll use fromjapan.co.jp to order it so that it gets re-packed properly. hmv.co.jp had better packing than amazon.co.jp the one time I've used them, but not as good as fromjapan.co.jp or cdjapan.co.jp.

Thank's for the information ^^
