After 2 months of waiting, I have finally received a valuable item which I have yearned for a long time. The last time I saw it in real was in Hong Kong last year. The price was 780 HKD which is roughy the same as 78 euro. I was shellshocked and gave up my hope. Luckily I have found a new way of webshopping namely proxy shopping. There I have found it for a pretty reasonable price. But I leave it the explanation for another time.
Here it is ... Nana Mizuki Artist Scorebook ~Sing Forever~

Front cover |
-I have never paid attention to any photobooks. Meaning I have no idea how I should review it. So I will write what I see then. The whole book is divided into 2 main parts; one is a collection
photoshoots and another is a collection of music sheets of several
songs.-
The printed book is from good quality. The outer cover is made of thick plastic. The great thing of a photobook, all the photos cover the whole page. I haven't checked the specifics on the date. But I assume the photoshoots were made before and after Live Formula (my favourite btw (^-^) y). It is from the year 2007. Noted that Nana was 28 in the photos. Not that you find any different with Nana nowadays
.
It first starts off with with an ordinary photoshoot.

So cute >< |
|
zettai ryouki incoming! |
|
Young, cute and sexy lady. This all sums up. |
Just my 2 cents, here on the photoshoot Nana really has a look of a genuine cute and young girl. I even dare to say she seems more like a teenager. As a hardcore fan I shall always say Nana is forevahh 17. But I do have look at another point of view too.
(I have a feeling many Nanatards sempais will ''shall I slap your shit for this BS!'') However I am not saying Nana is looking ''older'' or anything blasphemy like that. Recently she is beginning to look more like a young cute AND sexy lady. Especially more sex-appeal ... yeah I think that is the word, the appeal is different now. And also more lady~ish in her recent photoshoots.
Okay let's get back on track with Sing Forever. Following are the photos of practice (is this the right term) of the concert. I really like these photoshoot. You can see Nana being hardworking and her casual self.

Kakoii Nana! |
|
Fluffy tail!! |
I hear more photoshoots ... MOAR
|
Ah so natural smile <3 |
|
Time to count up your sins!* |
*This could be far fetched but watch Kamen Rider W to understand the joke :3
And all it remains are a few pages of interview and the music sheets.
I do regret a bit why I stopped the music school in my younger days. Not that I have any musical talent.
It was just for fun. All well ... my only hope is to have a girlfriend who likes to play musical instrument. So I can say things like ''Dear, can you play SUPER GENERATION for seventh time for me? I will treat you a nice dinner with an amazing scenery'' Now I sound a bit evil and selfish @3@
Owari, that was all. Might as well share my favourite photo of the whole artist scorebook.

So mesmerizing~ |
Final thoughts: I really like it. Honestly! Eventhough I already have it in scanned version. I wanted it for my collection and I am not disappointed. As soon as I first opened it, a warm smile of Nana appeared. Nothing can beat that. For any Nanatards out there doubting to buy it... Balls to the wall I say.
As a fitting closure for this blog entry, here is my treasured Nana literature (Nanastar, Nana's autobiography and Sing forever)

Nana-san <3 |

Small teaser for my next blog post

Yes there are 7 |

Cheers~
PS: Since I am not writing this as an usual review, therefore no 3 main questions (thoughts, recommended and price) were added. Btw I would still be baised and say everyone needs to buy it. lol
I won't scan this treasure of mine. ... Because you can find it scanned on the internet. ggrks konoyaro
Btw I am very bad at positioning pictures in my blog. m(._.)m
Wooo, everyone should indeed buy this photobook~! \o/ I used to have one of the pics where she has a glass of milk as my phone background a couple of years ago. :3
ReplyDeleteAnd I agree. Nana looks more refined, elegant and graceful (aka sexy) these days compared to before. (*-*)
I always wonder how she can do those high jumps with those high heels she wears too.. crazy lady~!
Hmmm so.... if I play Risouron for you, will you treat me to an amazing dinner? ww
Though I think I am still far from performing it to anyone... x'D
Looking forward to the next post! ^^
Lately I am getting more nosebloods from the recent magazines. It is too dangerous to order them. But somehow I cant refuse if it has Nana on the cover orz.
DeleteYeah about the high heels, it must be incruciating pain to jump AND to dance. I cant speak for it. But do you have any experience with those high heels? I dont think I saw anymore in the recent Lives.
I will treat anyone who can play a whole song of Nana www. Dont be shy, Okami! I am all ears. I will be looking forward to it if I get a chance ww.
Thanks for reading and commenting! :3
*pat pat* perfectly understandable. I've somehow managed to fight the temptation, probably because I know I really need to save every penny I can. >.<
DeleteYou mean like personal experience or experience of Nana's high heels? :D I haven't really worn high-heels on normal occasion (and never as big as Nana's), just for dancing and then in a play.. not the easiest things to cope with, especially if you are wearing a mask and can't really see much.... ooooorrr your running a high fever. My crazy life. xD And as for Nana's high-heels.. I will never forget that moment in the Live Journey concert I went to where she fell off the stage. >.< It seriously amazes me how she could land on her feet and be fine in those crazy heels. She really is a Goddess.
Well.. my Risouron is still a ways off from being a whole Nana song ww xD It's taking a while to take shape since I need to write the notes by ear and that's pretty hard. Mind you, I have made very good progress with it. We'll see how it is doing when a chance for you to hear it presents itself. :P
My pleasure! ^^
