clampnowbackupSo, first thing first, a short definition for the people not familiar with PURIKURA: simple, in Japan, pruikura is the shortened form of "print club" in Japanese, refers to photo sticker booths that print out stickers of photo portraits set against backgrounds and frames selected by the user.
= it's a photo booth
In commemoration of the new work that will begin in the July issue (June 3 release) of Nakayoshi, "Card Captor Sakura" print sealing machine come into play!
These installations will be made for a very limited time: from June 3rd (the day the first chapter of CCS will be released) until June 15th, that's it.
The cost: 500jpy.
Total of prints you can choose from: 5.

Even though there is a new illustration, something I always welcome, I was still a bit disappointed to see, once again, a young Sakura in her childhood days from the 90's series and not her teenager self, since this is actually made to celebrate the new manga...that was until I realized there was indeed something "special" about it: this is the first, as far as I can remember, that CLAMP drew both Sealing Key and Star Key in one drawing, this association is logically unheard of since when the Star Key was created, the Sealing one ceased to exist...

Date: 2016-06-02 12:44 pm (UTC)mostly I'm just sore about not getting the CCS anniversary postage stamp set, lmao. My fault for not placing an order at the nearest post office, but I had thought purchasing it online would be better, only to find out payment is only via cc and Japan rejects foreign cards, ugh.</sno subject
Date: 2016-06-02 03:29 pm (UTC)And it's indeed a shame for the stamps D: Countless goods of all kind have been released these past 5 years, nonetheless, I consider personally that stamps by Japan Post Office to be something really special.
I personally got my proxy buyer to get them for me, and they will send them to me when they are officially released in July...but then, doesn't that mean that even though you couldn't pre-order them, you could still directly buy them on the spot when they are sold in post offices? Or is it a 'pre-order only' kind of thing?

Date: 2016-06-02 05:06 pm (UTC)I really hope so! On the info form it only says that the application for payment / preorder is only until May 31st, and if it's via the internet it's until today (June 3). Ugggggggh.
Btw I'm PM-ing you something XD
