>>> I'm really interested in seeing the musical now. The title is "Ai

Wow...that must have been the experience of a lifetime. How long was it in
theaters? I imagine it broke all kinds of box office records? ^_^

I just got Steam Radio Show and Hanagumi Tsushin from NCS today, I can't
wait until winter break when I'll have time to devote myself fully to them
and ST2. Do you think I should finish ST2 before I look at SRS and HT?
So much merchandise, so little money... ^_^
