Might have to preorder this. I am a big fan of the opening theme for Nekomonogatari Black Very Happy

2 of the 3 editions sold out at amazon.co.jp. I was not sure about ordering it from Japan, but I decided to order it through the Right Stuf.

μ's Best Album Best Live! Collection Ⅱ topped the Oricon weekly album charts back in May 2015 too with about 85,000 so it wasn't that long ago.

edit:

animenewsnetwork.com/news/2015-06-10/love-live-best-album-best-live-collection-ii-certified-gold/.89125

In fact ANN reported on it when it went gold a week later so not sure how it got left off. It contains every theme song from the two TV seasons as well as the ones from the School Idol Festival game.

Just note, it's only the OP's and ED's upto the end of 2nd Season (including Hana), so nothing from Tsuki and Owari.

The distinction Oricon seems to be making is that the other albums are compilations of songs by different artists, as opposed to one musical act.

Bit disappointing since I loved the songs from Owari, but I can live with it.

Would these be the full length songs or the TV length?

How many Monogatari series that have yet to be adapted? I think it'd be better if they waited to complete the whole adaptation and release the complete album.

As usual, Aniplex doesn't make the promotional clip on Youtube available here.

Maybe due to "The uploader has not made this video available in your country."

One question that I didn't see answered directly in the article - were the songs only by the seiyuu appearing in the anime, or are their other artists providing songs on this compilation album as well?

I wonder how well Macross Frontier vocal collection Nyan Tama sold?
