What to buy? takarazukamania?

Hello,
I'm another newbie. I'm taking Intensive Japanese 1 at Berkeley this summer. I took the same course a long time ago, but life got between me and Japanese. I discovered Sumire Haruno on youtube about a month ago. I'm in love. Whoever merryshannon is "thank you" I've ordered "Elizabeth" and "I've got music" about 4 days ago through Crescent. Should I tell them that I got info from this website? I'm also considering ordering the version of Elizabeth with Zunko? and the Hanagumi Phantom. Does Haruno Sumire have a box? How many days, hours and minutes does it take for a Cresent order to reach the US? So far my account just says its processing. I paid right away through Paypal.

Best

Hah. I have the "Oide" clip on my iPod and I watch it endlessly. It's from Osa-san's ochakai for "Kurotokage / Tuxedo Jazz"... she says "Oide" just like that to Sakurano Ayane's character and it made such an impression upon the entire audience that her fan club asked her to repeat it, just for them. ;) It certainly is the one word every fan most wants to hear from her!
Thank you! I am trying to hold out from ordering anything until my first order arrives. I can't believe that I have probably spent 3 hours a day watching youtube videos for the last month. I'm telling myself it's part of my Japanese study. I've memorized, "Ai to Shi no Rondo," "Yami ga Hirogaru" and "Saigo no dansu." I'm even watching a little clip where Osa-san gets asked to turn to the audience and say "Oide." I think I'm safe in the near future from being as obsessed about Zunko-san. I love her when sings dressed as death, but with Osa-san I am mesmerized from the second she appears and then when she sings, oh my god!. I will mention this website to Crescent club when I make my next order which is going to cost a fortune. I'm obsessed with someone who's image has been made into a paper doll. Is there a treatment program for this?

> Crescent Shop is already aware of TakaWiki, but it wouldn't hurt to let them know they got another customer through us. ;) I've been dealing with them for over two years now and the longest a package has ever taken to reach me after being posted is five days; usually it's three, or even two. But depending upon how many things you're having shipped, and how busy they are (the end of one month and the beginning of another is usually quite busy), it can take a couple of days for the shipment to be prepared. Don't worry. You'll get your shipping invoice soon, and then the DVDs, and they'll be well worth the wait. :)

She doesn't have any box sets yet. But she's graduating from Takarazuka in December; at that time there'll be a Sky Stage box set and probably at least one other. I just wish we didn't have to lose *her* to get the boxes. :(

Hey there buddyboo..i'm also a newbie, and i just had something to say about cresent's shipping. As soon as they get the items you order, they ship it out to you very quickly. VERY quickly! trust me..i ordered a bunch of books a few weeks ago, and as soon as they all came in, they packaged them all up and shipped them within one to two days. and the package arrived at my house in about 2-3 days! they are great, so not to worrie! enjoy ur dvds!

- oh! and if i may suggest, i would TOTALLY get the version with zunko! both haruno-san and zunko are great der tods! enjoy!
