April 29, 2011 Make It Worldwide!~This concert was epic in many ways. You'd think that with the scale of Break the Records the year before, KAT-TUN would not be able to top that, being a member short this time around as well! But they once again proved that they deserve to be one of the top groups in Johnny's and Japan as well as Asia ^_^
One of the highlights for me, was definitely the remixed versions of their songs which became necessary due to Akanishi's departure from the group. Although he is dearly missed and will never be forgotten, KAT-TUN really threw themselves behind the task, giving some of the best Live renditions of the songs I've ever seen! The one that left me especially stunned in this regard was definitely Rescue! My expression -> *jawdrop* =O *stares in awe*
Other songs that are worth looking forward to were The D-Motion *Kamenashi and those hips!*, Bokura no Machi de, Right Now, Promise Song *T_T*, N.M.P. encore version and all, ALL the SOLOS!!!
This edition is definitely worth getting because of the bonus disc with the Asian Tour footage. They were warmly received in both Korea and Taiwan, and I am anxiously and excitedly looking forward to this year's concerts, which I hope would be even bigger and better! KAT-TUN keeps raising the bar and I honestly don't expect this year to be any different. Proud to be a HYPHEN!~ ^_^

(5)Our Price: US$38.75Related promotions:February 13, 2011 And The Awesomeness Continues...What can I say about this album that hasn't been said already? KAT-TUN once again shows why they are such a versatile group; so many different styles of music are included in this album, I'd say it's impossible to not have quite a few favourites.
My favourites, aside from the previously released singles and solos, were Sadistic Love, Water Dance, Neiro and Moon (regular edition bonus track). Sadistic Love is dark.....in a very seducing way, lol. Water Dance, I loved instantly! It's just like "wow" for me. And it would not be complete without a ballad and Neiro certainly fills that spot. Beautiful lyrics to match beautiful voices. The bonus track on Regular Edition, Moon is totally awesome as well. Begins with the sounds of the koto; one would get drawn in almost instantly, then it suddenly changes and incorporates rock elements in what's fast becoming recognized as KAT-TUN's style. Definitely worth listening to!
And finally, a few comments about the solos. My favourite is HANDS DOWN the epic 1582 from Kamenashi! That song defies all words I could possibly use to describe it. I'll say no more....
I was pleased to see Care as the solo from Akanishi, as it's one of my favourites and I was wondering if there'll ever be a studio version. Nakamaru's White World, I really loved as well. I like that we always get to hear more of his voice because for some reason he doesn't incorporate his beatboxing into his solos often. We get a rock number from Tanaka, and I must say, while it was an OK listen, I much prefer his other solo styles. Taguchi's Wind started off slowly; I was wondering what happened to the sunshine I usually associate with him, but I was not disappointed as it quickly changed into the lively tunes we all love from Junno! And finally, another lovely ballad from Ueda, that made my fingers twitch wanting to play it on the piano. They should definitely release sheet music for some of these things!
So lastly, although this review has turned out quite long, *I'm sorry m(_ _)m* I blame KAT-TUN because there was just so many good things to say, and I couldn't bear to leave anything out! The booklet included in Limited Edition was indeed very lovely, and continued the dark seducing concept that seemed to the theme of this album.

(39)Our Price: US$59.99List: US$84.99Save: US$25.00 (29%)Related promotions:December 9, 2010 Awesome In Every Way!!! ^_^Firstly, I found out about this album really late and was stunned when I heard from news sources that the 99,999 Limited Editions were already sold out. But when I checked here, I was a bit skeptical when I saw it available. I ordered it on November 9th and received it on December 01st.
Needless to say, the actual package surpassed my expectations. I didn't expect the box itself to be so huge! When I viewed the images available, I seriously thought it was just a bit bigger than a normal CD sized album. The lyrics booklet was really lovely; (I'm Jaejoong biased *_*) and the 16 extra photos were really great quality. The poster was folded neatly and the T-shirt fit perfectly. So overall, I am immensely satisfied with my purchase.
I had reviewed this product before, so in this my second review, I didn't really comment on the songs or anything; more on the packaging quality. I see that these Original Limited Editions are now completely sold out, so congratulations to all of us who were lucky enough to receive one of the 99,999 First Editions!
And thank you to YesAsia! ^_^

(39)Our Price: US$59.99List: US$84.99Save: US$25.00 (29%)Related promotions:November 9, 2010 Still Available!!!I found out about this album a week before it's release and had thought it was all sold out already! So I was a bit suspicious when I saw that it was still available here. I ordered and it was shipped today! ^^
That said, I have listened to the album even though my copy hasn't arrived yet. And I think they did a nice job singing in a non-native language. Sure, it isn't perfect, but it would be unfair to assume it would be! There's a nice mix of upbeat and ballad-like, such as "I Can Soar" and "Be The One". My only problem was that in the song "Ayyy Girl", I didn't like Malik Yusef's voice too much. In fact, I winced the first time I heard it.....It really didn't mesh well with JYJ's. So I actually prefer the remix of that song.
