Soundtracks for Bloom Into You and Atelier Ryza. Pleasantly surprised that DHL managed to get these jewel cases to me intact (aside from one small crack) despite Amazon Japan using their usual unpadded cardboard envelope. I normally use CD Japan to avoid broken CD cases, but that's been prohibitively expensive since regular Japanese airmail stopped delivering to the UK in March.

Most OSTs only have the TV size, if that. Looking at the Bloom into You tracklist on Spotify there is no OP/ED. They aren't available on Spotify as singles either unfortunately, but here's the CD version:

"Yagate Kimi ni Naru (Anime)" Intro Theme: Kimi ni Furete Riko Azuna CD Maxi

Riko Azuna,"Yagate Kimi ni Naru (Anime)" Intro Theme: Kimi ni Furete,CD Maxi listed at CDJapan! Get it delivered safely by SAL, EMS, FedEx and save with CDJapan Rewards!

That's right; it doesn't even have TV sizes versions of the OP or ED. I don't think that was a cynical decision in this case, since the OST is 70 minutes, so there may not have been room for anything else.

2023 HAUL VER 1.1

Spoiler: More Photos

Starting off the 2023 collection haul is the arrival of Kōsaku Yamashita's Big Time Gambling Boss (博奕打ち 総長賭博) from Radiance Films on Blu-ray, which arrived last Tuesday. This is the first release by the distributor and is packaged like Criterion but has an additional obi that's kept inside the case so you can place it above or behind the main artwork. I'm expecting the distributor is going with the Indicator route so that the Scanavo cases are used for the limited editions and if they do well enough it'll be amaray cases for any re-release.

Spoiler: More Photos

Next arriving today is Banished from the Hero's Party, I Decided to Live a Quiet Life in the Countryside Season 1 from Crunchyroll on Blu-ray in a limited edition package. As the UK branch won't be bothering with the limited edition set, I went for the US version which was already in stock on United Publication and thus I went for it (was going to order it through Rightstuf). You can view more photos & specs on my blog.

[RadFemHedonist]

My complete birthday haul apart from one item which I'll post a pic of here when it arrives as well (it's art supplies and I have a pack shot of it but since the limit for photos is 10 per post I'll wait)

My best friend gave me quite a bit of stuff, some of this was Xmas gifts that he couldn't give me until now and the more knick knacky stuff is from his mum as I was considering spending Xmas with them if I couldn't make it to my mum's. I'm honestly really touched that they both went to such an effort for me

Lego Harry Potter Hedwig the Owl
Funko Pop Philharmagic Mickey Mouse
Christmas Mug
Travel Beaker with Bees
Soft Pink Blanket

The rest was bought by me for myself

The Secret Diaries of Charles Ignatius Sancho - Paterson Joseph (Hardcover)

Death Parade UK Limited Edition Blu-ray
Hinamatsuri UK Limited Edition Blu-ray

New phone just arrived. Didn't want to get a new one but my current phone, a OnePlus 7 Pro 5G, is stuck on Android 10 and hasn't had a security update since November 2021 as T-Mobile control the updates. All other variants of the phone are on Android 12 with current security.

Is google good for long term security updates? I'm on a Samsung which will be reaching it's end of life soon so this could be a good upgrade as well.

Pixel 6 onwards get 5 years security updates. Check around for prices, got this for £280 from Amazon.

Have you tried Oxygen Updater? My old Nord wasn't supported by Sky Mobile so I got all my updates that way, though admittedly the 7 has just had it's final update recently anyway

I have, there is no update for the 5G version. It was a carrier phone built specifically for T-Mobile who abandoned it after a single OS update, a lot of people have asked OnePlus on their forums and they said they don't have control of what updates are available.
