Hello !

I went to see the new Animex page of CDs...
Actually I was wrong in my URL, it was not 97-01.html but 97-1.html so I
wasted my time when I went each day there to check out the address... ;)

the direct URL for the CD is :

http://www.c2i.co.jp/col.me/ANIMEX/RELEASE/release971/COCC-13980.html

the jacket is GREAT, I was impressed by the colours.
Kurumada did a NICE WORK !!!
I'll put it on my website, it's too nice to be left like this... ;)

Resurrection ! Saint Seiya ! A CD based on Drama and Image Songs !
Masami Kurumada's famous work "Saint Seiya" still has a great success
though its broadcasting is over. There is a strong demand for a second TV
series and new movies, but [for now ? --naoki] here is an album with songs
and drama, featuring the help of mister Masami Kurumada in person ! Since
you will find a comment message from him, an interview and others, you
can't miss it ! It's an album that will deeply touch [make cry --naoki] the
fans.

------ End of the translation ------

well, that's great, but I hope the drama part will be very long...!
probably over 20 minutes. I'm just wondering what it will feature, since
there is no voice for Hades Chapter, so that will be probably a "farewell
message" for the fans, and if there is a good support, maybe they will make
a "we are back" CD and a Hades OAV series, after all ;)))))

here is the URL of the WAV version (280kb) of one of the songs, Born to be
a soldier (the WAV is 26 seconds long). It's cool, but nothing exceptionnal
unfortunately...

you can replace the .wav suffix by .au or .aiff if you prefer.
