PomeloPooh Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 A breathtaking photo. I notice that FS Fan Express' taste for covers has improved over time. The cover says that there will be photos from Makuhari & Niigata in it, so that means Kobe photos won't be included and are most likely exclusive for the (very expensive) FaOI official photo book. If that's true, it could explain the Great Kobe Draught of Any Image AT ALL. On a brighter note, it could also mean that the draught won't continue to Niigata. Fingers crossed for the flow of photos & videos to resume its natural course! Link to comment

Fingers crossed for the flow of photos & videos to resume its natural course! Great finding! I didn't pay attention to "Niigata" on cover. Fan Express relies solely on photo agencies like Aflo, so if it announces Makuhari AND Kobe, this means there'd be photographers from such agencies in Niigata. On the other hand some twitter report from Friday Kobe show mentioned that there were no photographers - so only photos will be made by those 3 photographers, whose photos will be used for photobook.

No shop liability insurance would cover the amount of emergency car calls due to fainting etc, so including Yuzu nyans would not be a practical business model. Sadly. Link to comment

yuzuthebest Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 https://mobile.twitter.com/miruku0723/status/874920163778461696 Just a piece of information about 's Home Rink. According to this twitter, when she visited the "Ice Rink Sendai("Irene")" the other day, things there has already begun to change! For example, the coin lockers, the vending machines, etc., were moved to different places( not yet to the level of dismantlement). I suppose what to be disappointed most if you are to be there should be... all those exhibits in the showcases were all been removed (OT:As a matter of fact, my family and I made a 3-day trip to there during Tanabata Festival last year and enjoyed all those "places & things to do with Yuzu"....like a dream, so you know, it's kind of you suddenly have a hole in your heart...Well, things are getting better for Yuzu and everyone there, so...let's smile ) There was also an info there about the "JOYFIT" that their facilities would start the renewal from this August.
