Hmm, have you tried other stores in sg such as MJ, Sembawang etc. ? If they don't have them, perhaps you can try ordering online from sites such as cdjapan or visit auction webs such as yahoo auction. Hope this helps. :)

yup yup ~~ i'm so fortunate to know chinese .. hahaz ... :bonk:

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone knows any shops in Singapore that still sells Japanese Drama Series (Not movies). Either VCD/DVD. After the copyright issue, i have not seen any around at all.

So, please if anyone knows anywhere that might sell, do let me know.

Thanks.

Ok either i'm blind, or they've just recently started selling them again. Because i'm sure the last time i checked there weren't any being sold.

Which branches did you see them being sold at? D:

I don't really like Singapore's publisher sometimes as they make the packaging real plain and awful... How do you think about the overall cover?? did it look mysterious on the front cover?? haha... that's the way the movie should be

i find the packaging ok ~~ it's better than the VCD version i saw in TS (near Plaza Singapura) .. the packaging really sux ... :bleh:

here's how the DVD version looks like ~

Oh... Thanks for the pictures.... But it's sort of too redish... never mind... as long as can watch... But sad to say, I don't find any special features i this DVD on the back!!! haiZx... I can't expect much too since I wanna watch it so much... VCD's packaging really sucks?? In what ways?? hahaha... you seem to dislike it alot, hahaha :hehe:

the vcd seems so pirated ... i was so happy to see the dvd version ...
i almost bought that vcd version ... :bleh: hahaz ...

So are you going to buy the DVD version?? I'm going to... hehe

i bought the dvd version yesterday .. hehez ..
have not watched it yet ... but it was ok when i test on my comp ..
maybe i'll watch it later .. hahaz .. :rolly:

Lmao :rofl:. Either the standard of packaging has dropped or the pirates have started to make the packaging more attractive to attract people to buy them. :hehe:

I personally prefer DVD version cos it is of higher quality (and more expensive :beaten:). But if there is no DVD version, there is no choice but to purchase the VCD version.

Most Asian DVDs have a region code of 3.

The 'Ima, Ai ni Yukimasu' DVD I bought was ALL region. Even better for me. :P :naughty:

Honto ni? LoL! Okay okay. I'd try to psyche one of my friends to share buying the DVD. :P Matsu's acting is pretty good as far as I'm concerned! ^^"

Yep. Watched it in the cinema. It may be a little slow but if you can overlook that, it's actually pretty good.

It's Kakushiken, Oni no Tsume (‰B‚µŒ•@‹S‚Ì’Ü)
