First arrival of 2022:
Ichii Sayaka in CUBIC-CROSS phone card (2002–3, mint)
Another tangentially H!P-related item that I got is a used paperback of
Stacys - Shoujo Saisatsu Zendan by Ōtsuki Kenji. The volume contains the novel
Stacy plus two related short stories. It was the basis for Morning Musume's 2012 stage play,
Stacys - Shoujo Saisatsu Kageki.

I FINALLY got my copy of Sayashi Riho's Reflection (limited A with DVD).
Part of the delay was because I combined the order with SCANDAL's new album, MIRROR (limited A with DVD), released two weeks later. This came with three external bonuses: a group clearfile, a Rina clearfile, and an access code for their online studio live, which expired nearly four weeks ago.
Most of the delay was because I was a dumb-ass and chose Japan Post's EMS shipping instead of, say, FedEx. Back in the pre-pandemic days, EMS shipments only took a few days. But now, thanks to the drastic decrease in the number of international flights, my package sat in Chubu, waiting for a plane to carry it across the Pacific, for TWENTY-SIX DAYS.

Less than an hour after I preordered
Laugh and Peace and Limited Edition Type A of
Terzo, one of my best friends sent me this:
Sat May 07, 2022 3:55 pm
Takahashi Ai / Tanaka Reina / Natsuyaki Miyabi – LAUGH & PEACE (new CD+DVD w/ first press bonus luggage tag)
Juice=Juice – terzo (new, limited first press A, 2 CD+BD w/ bonus clearfile)
Night Tempo – Ladies in the City (new, limited first press CD in mini-LP sleeve w/ 10cm×10cm sticker)
The Night Tempo CD includes "Night Light feat. Michishige Sayumi". Other featured vocalists include BONNIE PINK, Nomiya Maki (Pizzicato Five), and Yamamoto Sayaka (ex-NMB48). Universal is actually distributing the Japanese CDs and vinyl of this title in the U.S., so I was able to buy this locally without paying for shipping from Japan. The U.S. release date was today.

Another card for my collection:
It's a used Tosho card, circa 2002, advertising Shogakukan Home Pal magazine and featuring Mika Todd in one of her dreadful... um, I mean SUPER COOL! mini-moni。 outfits.

Earlier this year I got the regular edition of Ogata Risa's Bon Voyage. Depending on the other tracks on Docchi I'll get the regular edition B at the same time as Kiki's graduation single (+ if Kiki releases a third photobook) so I only need to pay for shipping once.
Right now the US dollar is stronger than the Yen so it's a good time to import for Americans!
