I might be reading things incorrectly but it sounds like the DVD is a mail in order.

If not Ami Ami and CD Japan put up pre-orders for La La

It's a mail in order. Unless you know someone who can order for you and has a Japanese address you will need to hope for the best with the after market (yahoo Japan).

Don't worry I am in the same boat as you. It's sometimes hard to be a fan outside Japan.

edit: Although if anyone can offer better advice (for the DVD and figures) I am looking for it too.

Oh, wow. I wasn't sure if we'd get any more of the anime, since we hadn't heard from it for a while. I knew that, if we did, they'd have to wait for the manga to progress a bit further, but I wasn't expecting an original story. This is quite exciting.

I just wish I lived in Japan so I could get this DVD and those figures. The eternal cry.

It's pricey, but one option is to use a proxy like Celga. I use them for Yahoo Auctions Japan. There are other proxies out there too. Hmmm...

Do you know how to get the mail-in order information? I might use a proxy. Thanks!

I think the form (for both the figures and DVD) should come in the next issue of La La due out in July.

I think this also comes with a Nyanko Sensei 10th anniversary strap so it's worth ordering anyways (there is a matching Natsume one with the 16th tank also due out in July).

How would you get the proxy to order it? I am just curious because I tried asking the one I normally use (Treasure Japan) and they never got back to me. I thought what I was asking was too confusing.

edit: Just sent them another E-mail asking again

Here's a link to the shopping request on Celga.com. I've used them for Yahoo auctions and to buy something from a Bandai store once.

I am still a bit confused. I do know how to order from a proxy from Online stores and yahoo auctions.

But this is a bit different. In this case I believe there is a physical form in the La la issue that needs to be filled out and mailed back. I am just not sure how the proxy would do that.

I am sorry for all these questions but thanks for helping.

I'm sorry. I was thinking that there might be an online form on the Lala website that you could fill out. I get it now. I need a paper form. Dang. I'm not sure either.... Sigh...

At least I am pretty sure that is how it works. It would be wonderful if it was an Online form.

The last issue (April came out) had the mail in form (the form is only in the Lala issues, not online) for the figures (Set 1). The issue that just came out (May 24 which is titled as the JULY issue) has the form for the figures again plus another form to do the mail in for the DVD.

The form is usually offered in several issues.

Yahoo auctions after the figures or DVDs are out the more likely option for us not in Japan. A deputy service might do (I don't know) the mail in but it's a few months before the items are sent out.
