I never really liked the cutie honey theme before, but I just downloaded the music video/promo to Koda Kumi's version, and I can help but, well, put it on repeat. I like the jazzy beat they give it, and of course Koda's singing helps. The music video is rather nice with clips from the movie. *I can't help but think Liveaction Sailormoon on some of the Cutie Honey clips* It's also funny to see Koda's little handmovements on "She's the girl with the nicest breast" and well... I think the only real bad part in the music video is the exotic dancer routine. Course the guy part of the population probably wouldn't be complaining.
Is this going to be perhaps the opening song for the movie? And does anyone know if the single is on sale yet?
The single goes on sale on 5/26 with two versions, one with and one without a DVD. They are also supposed to come with different versions of The Theme of Sister Jill.
I believe the song is the opening while the ending song, Into your heart, is also on the single.

Touhou Spell Carnival is a unique blend of strategy and shmup gameplay with ample amounts of charm and depth.― This was my first exposure to the Touhou… franchise? Expanded universe? Mass hysteria? I'm not sure if any of those terms are correct, or perhaps it's all three. In any case, I have never ventured into the Touhou waters before.

Dinghai Fusheng Records is a good break-in point for the danmei-curious.― Danmei can sometimes feel overwhelming if you've never read it before.
