Your Books (and CD and DVD)

Still haven't seen when the blu-ray will be released, but a bunch of other stuff came out and showed up this week. Amazon talked me into buying the specialest special edition of the soundtrack, which comes packaged vinyl size, with a book, the CD, and a DVD. This one ships in the large box.

Objects are larger than they appear.
Not sure what I'm going to do about the card taped to the plastic envelope it came in though. I'm afraid of it! I think you're going to have to do some scrolling to read these pictures. I only skimmed the DVD but it looks like it's heavy on the band practicing. Even though I bought the separate sheet music book (why? I don't know!) the book that came with this has some of the music as well.

Keep scrolling

Of all the books (Another Side, the manga, the novels, the complete book, etc) probably the best one for Shinkai fans who don't have all the art books, complete books, storyboard books, book books, is the Walker book. This has some of everything from all of his work.

This one

The Promised Story
You get the idea. Here's the table of contents for the Your Name specific book, which if you're reading this, you'll probably want too.

But when is the blu-ray?
