Released:2011/1/28
Price: ¥2500

Has anyone bought this?
It is said to be a trading photo magazine.
I don't really understand the concept.
The price is quite high for a magazine, comparable to a photobook.
But Seto Kouji in Hawaii?? Must be interesting enough.

Never seen this one before either, must be quite new?
Expensive though for a magazine, curious too to see what it's like inside.
Seto in Hawaii will be cute that's for sure!

I bought it but I don't have it yet. It's from the same Hawaii photoshooting as his latest pb, Etcetera. It's a combination photobook and trading cards. The cards are in little pouches on the pages, and you don't know what cards you have until you open the pouches. And then, you can store your cards in the pb, if you like.

Thank you for the clarification.
Now I understand.
So it will be more fun to have some friends to trade the photos with, right?

And next month or next issue will present other boys. But Japanese style is if it doesn't sell well they just stop the whole thing.

I heard Gakken will issue Gakken Man with new boy each month, too. And the first issue will be Mukai Osamu. But they don't have this trading feature.

Yeah, this trading feature seems really fun. I am looking forward to taking the cards out and putting them back in. Weird, ne? I will probably sit there doing it repeatedly, acting like a baby with a jack-in-the-box.

I can't imagine that the Seto edition of this book doesn't sell well. Coming out when it has, with him as Ranmaru and so much pre-press for Runway Beat, I am sure it must be doing well.

I already order this one and I will get it within next week, I'm not sure that the trading card will come with limited trading card as they promote or not... still confusing not sure this is photo book or magazine =_=''
