Even with all my problems with FedEx, I'll give them this: they're quick.
My order arrived today, just 2 days after it was shipped. The extra charges came up to about 65$, which is still way more than I expected, but less than the 85$ they told me it might add up to. Oh well.
To start with, I got this deskmat as a first press bonus. I'm keeping it in plastic for now. Not sure what to do with it, but it's pretty cool:
The slipcase is quite nice and thick, with a nice feel to it. I like the design.
Front and back of slipcase:
The digipak's pretty good. I like the inu curry art on the inside.
Front, back, and open view of digipak:
The booklet contains text which I can't read, art from the various background in the movie, storyboards, a 4-koma (I would be very happy if anyone who knows Japanese could translate this) and some other illustrations.
Booklet and 4-koma:
They also included the frame sketches from my favorite thing ever:
You can really see the love on Homu's face.

I guess because of that wish of mine that they turned into musical notation...

But,
フォルティシモってすごくデカイ音で弾くって意味なんだろ?
isn't Fortissimo means that the] piece is played very loud?
さやか あの坊やにすげーうるらいとか思われてんじゃん?
Doesn't that mean that you think that guy is noisy?
あはは~
Ahaha

Oh god why does this look so much like one of those sticker books where you get stickers of the characters and then you have a background you can stick them on and the people who put the book together did one of those and took a picture of the scene they made and slipped it into the artbook?

A delayed update:
A companion to my hot pink Asuka tote bag, a blue Rei one.
Jormungand Vol. 11 and while my Giants are just finding ways to lose, last year won't be forgotten.
From the J-Pop Summit Festival going on this weekend, only thing I paid for was the shikishi.
Signed shikishi by director Hidekazu Ohara of Studio 4C, who worked on some anime for the PES campaign for Toyota and SWEETY, a J-Pop trio who was also involved int the project.
Also from the festival, a douga (I think) from the anime short/commercial Drive Your Heart that was handed out for Ohara's autograph session. Hatsune Miku Project Diva F lanyard.
