Kaze to Ki no Uta, again >_<''

[thrumugnyr]

Yes, yes I hardly talk about anything else these days...

I have all manga volumes now. But I'm still missing something. Nooo, not the Anime (we talk about that as soon as a DVD is released lol), but the Artbook!

Hello!

I have this Artbook and I've made high resolution scans of it here:

Try to check JPqueen ( http://www.jpqueen.com/ ), I found mine there.

But the last scan you're showing here, isn't from "Le poème du vent et des arbres", it's from an other artbook. This picture of Gilbert is gorgeous! Oo

Take care

lol I got the artbook too in the meantime. (Not from jpqueen though, they are too slow and too expensive)
I wanted to scan it but now I don't have to, thanks ^^ But you know what's strange...?

This picture IS from the Artbook! I saved it from an auction I lost and it was only for "le poème du vent et des arbres" lol (and the picture of August IS in the artbook, as well as the others - it's just the other with Gilbert is missing and is replaced with another one. Does this have to do with my book being second print?) That picture is in that artbook, also because you can see tha black hardcover dust jacked int he picture. But I really don't get it.

[thrumugnyr]

Ah yes, your book is second print too. Well that it has to be a first print thing. Because I remember clearly that the one in the auction was labelled as first print.

Damned! I thought I had the first edition! ^^
So it's like in the manga. I noticed that they didn't change but added a few pages in the "new" edition.

Is there something cheaper than JPqueen? If you have a link, I'd be happy to have it :-p

Take care,

Arthur

As for which printing your book is, you can look at the last page, there is written:

Showa 60 4 Month 25 Day - 1.t printing
Showa 60 4 Month 30 Day - 2nd printing
Sorry can't write Japanese :D But I think you'll find it anyway. It's the same with all Japanese manga. Only that some count years in Showa or some write the year in our way.

I buy my stuff via rinkya.com from yahoo auctions japan. It's not necessairly a lot cheaper (if you add shipping and stuff) but regarding old stuff you can get real bargains. And the good thing is that you have pictures of the items, so you see exactly what you get.
For me it was better because I only wanted the artbook with the poster.

Sadly, you need a credit card for that >.<

[fils_du_vent]

Thanks a lot! Rinkya is such a great place for fans of Kaze to ki no uta!! Some stuff are actually cheaper than JPqueen but sadly, only a few sellers send internationally :-/

Ja ne!

Arthur

[thrumugnyr]

Yeah, but with rinkya, that doesn't matter, because they work like a...Japanese adress. Well that's why shipping is expensive though. You pay it twice lol

By the way, thanks for all your scans! Always wanted to see what's inside the Flower Deluxe Artbook :D
