| Overseas Otaku Buying Tips
Making online purchases/pre-orders especially for Jpop CDs and anime/game PVC figures have always been the best option for me (and many otakus who do not live in Japan). Listed below are my wish list, preorders and purchases from these reputable online companies. Your purchase via these links supports this site :)

 • YesAsia (Bought my Jpop CD/DVD here)
 • J-list (many 'weird' Japanese stuff)
 • HobbySearch (Comprehensive inventory
     but no free shipping and no shipping cost
     provided upon placing an order )
 • HLJ (very good alternative to HobbySearch)
 • E2046 (many figures & rules in resin kit)
 • Play-Asia (My #1 online shop)

Tag: Game, Kimi ga iru kara, Sugawara Sayuri, Lyric, Final Fantasy XIII, Final Fantasy
Leaked out recently was the full version of Final Fantasy XIII (FFXIII) theme song "Kimi ga iru kara" (Because you are here). This ultra-catchy ballad by Sugawara Sayuri was initially heard from TSG2009 7-minute long FFXIII teaser video which was also downloadable via Japanese PSN (go download the whooping 797MB file with your PS3 if you haven't already, worth every bit there for the 1080p quality).

Naitatte iindayo kimi ga fuini souitte kureta kara
Nandaka ureshikute namida jyanaku egao ga koboreta
Bukiyou sugiru kotobade kimi wo kizutsukete shimatta
Soredemo hanaretari shinaide ima mo koushite sasaeni natte kureterunda

Kanaetai negai kanaetai yume
Todoketai omoisubete
Shinji tsuzukeru kotoga kiseki wo yonde
Mirai ni tsunagatte yuku yo
Zutto ne zutto mimamotte ite hoshii
Dear my friend

Kiminara daijyoubu dayo wakare kiwani sou itte kureta kara
Kanjiteta kodokuga sono hitokotode kirei ni nakunatta
Atarashii tobira wo kiraku sore wa daredemo kowakute fuan darake dakedo
Senaka wo oshite kureta kimi wo omoidaseba chikara ga afurete kurukara ne

Sunaona kimochi yuzurenai mono
Shoujikina kotoba subete
Koe nishite tsutaeru kotoga dekita nara mirai wa hirogatte yukuyo
itsumo sou itsumo kokoroni kimiga iru kara
Dear My Friend

(interlude)

Tachi domattemo wasure souni nattemo
Nandomo nandodemo maewo muite yuku tochikauyo
Miageta sora hikari ga sashikondeiru
Kimini mata aeru hi made

Sunaona kimochi yuzurenai mono

Koe nishite tsutaeru kotoga dekita nara mirai wa hirogatte yukuyo
Negai kanaetai yume

Masashi is my all time favourite music composer ever since Saga Frontier II. Gd for him that Nobuo has made his way for Masashi to lead this FFXIII's musics.

Love his Battle and Boss Battle theme. Thumbs up for him :). Hope for more good musics release in this game.

@ Preston,
Aah, thanks for the heads up about FFXIII battle theme there. That track (the drums in the beginning) reminds me about FFVIII battle theme. No love for Sayuri's Kimi ga iru kara?
