Please somebody post a preorder link for this T_T

*edit Preferably Amazon JP or CDJapan or HLJ

This book was available for PO only via the Kawamori Expo...so only if you attended the event.

Your two options are to find a proxy to bid on the book for you via YJA...or wait until it is released and hope to win one via YJA or perhaps buy it from Mandarake if they list one.

If you go for the one linked by @no3ljm....you need to make sure your proxy can complete the transaction.  Basically, the seller is auctioning his PO purchase code that he/she received at the event.  Your proxy would then need to go to the dedicated website for the book's PO and complete the order.  It will then ship to the proxy in Japan and they can then ship to you once it releases and arrives to their address.

The last Kawamori Exhibit companion book is virtually impossible to find.

It was posted up maybe 2 or 3 times on YJA when first released and then has not showed up again since. 

I don't recall seeing it listed on Mandarake either.

I am thinking these books have ultra low print runs.

Thanks for the detailed info. Fortunately I'm not that desperate to go through all those hoops for such a book.

 

 

Damn why do you do this Kawamori!

That sounds about right honestly. It’s not even the cost so much as the rarity that gets me..

I'd gladly pay 8000 yen max but I refuse to go through hoops. I want a straightforward purchase option. But there's no such option so yeah, I'll forget about it.

Just so you know, the book itself cost Y12000 as posted on the Kawamori Expo website goods page. So the Y16000 posted by the YJA seller is already a good price.

Maybe that's a good price but there's too many hoops to go through to spend that kind of money. I could buy several other things in the meantime much easier and much faster :lol: Macross is not my only hobby/interest, I have other 'mouths' to feed. Sorry Kawamori :p

So I take it there was absolutely no news of a new Macross TV series or about what happened to the presumably cancelled TV series we were supposed to get this year?

Dissapointing

The only thing we know that's going to happen is the announced Delta Movie Part 2.

Guys who can read Japanese, is this another EXPO book? This seems to be a general release. Unfortunately Satelight doesn't ship to overseas locations :(

I'm not sure but somehow it looks like it's the same one I posted a few post ago from the main Kawamori Expo site:

https://kawamoriexpo.jp/s/ex01/page/goods?ima=4358

As per your link, it has the same title: 【受注販売】河森正治EXPO 解態新書

Now the question is, does this need the PO purchase code? If it does, no problem, there's a Eureka 7 artbook coming out anyway. But if it doesn't....RIP wallet? :lol: (Assuming I can go through the hoops associated with a successful purchase of this expo book...)

Interview of Shoji Kawamori in Kotaku: https://kotaku.com/how-anime-has-and-hasnt-changed-according-to-shoji-kaw-1838478119

lol

Quote

“One of my friends got in touch with Studio Nue, the studio that made the anime, and we got a tour.” It was during the break between the end of junior high and the start of high school.

“I was surprised to see how small and how dirty that studio was,” Kawamori said, chuckling.

Note, it says: 受注受付終了しました。 (or: not taking orders [anymore])
