Motokariya Yuika was very cute in the movie. However I found her less 'unique' now that she has grown up a bit. Nevertheless she is kawai. Here is a photo from her debut photo album:

Eight times?! :shocked:

Have you tried the Yahoo! Japan Auctions? I thought I saw one or two available.... :sweat:

Unfortunately the seller don't usually ship outside of Japan. Moreover a complete set (with the mousy) in prime condition was asking for 45,000 yen!!

Go for it! However do it if you enjoy it, not to set records - you'll need a lot of spare time to catch up (I stopped counting after the 50th re-run).

The last couple of times that I watched it was during my normal exercise routine... :beaten:

It's such a fun movie... Never fails to put a smile on my face. :victory:

Yow, that's some big bucks... A real test of your dedication.

And wallet. :sweat:

I just took a look again and the highest price is now 70,000 yen. I've asked my contact in Japan to check the sellers out, and set a maximum price of 50,000. Hope I'm going to get a nice set finally.

Trust me, I'm not in the habit of starving myself for some DVD-sets. This, however, is a special items that I've been drooling over a year for. It's only now that I have a way to acquire it via my contact in Japan.

I edited my post to say I'm NOT starving... I'm afraid I'm not quite ready to sacrifice those culinary delights yet, not even for Juri-sama. :bonk:
