I’d recommend A cos Takizawa Kabuki documentaries are always good. However B looks fun too, a BBQ party ne, and possibly some fun episodes back stage. Which version will you buy?
Update 7 Nov: Preview of bonus A5 postcards.
Design A (for LE A)
Design B (for LE B)
Design C (for RE)
I like Design C post card but I cant decide with LE A or B.. ^^!
Ah I preordered already, before the postcards designs were released… and yappari I went for LE A ;)
