Toki wo kakeru shojo final check

(tags movie, character goods, Osaka)

(This was written 3 weeks ago)

I did go to see the only theater in the Osaka area to see if there was some Toki wo Kakeru Shojo character goods like in that blog (my previous post). It was in this fashionable "Loft" area where lots of young people hang out. Nice. Unfortunately they only had the soundtrack CD (pictured later) and the ED single. Even the poster campaign was over:

「『時をかける少女』リピーターキャンペーンのプレゼントポスターは、限定数の為終了いたしました。ご了承くださいませ。」

Actually the same theater has a "girls' glasses" day. If you wear glasses and buy a ticket to this movie, you'll get a special not-sold-in-any-store postcard. (kuyashii!) Supposedly it's to celebrate one of the characters in the story. What kind of sexist strategy is this (it's not really sexist)? I'm not a girl and I don't wear glasses, at least, not outside.

I couldn't find the ED single in the Tower Records so I settled for the OST CD. I also purchases a couple of days later the "Notebook".

(comment in the present)

Well, to tie this up, there is currently a telephone card set being on sold on Chara-ani, based on the movie poster. Plus I visited Cine Quanon in Kobe (シネカノン神戸) which was showing the movie 2 weeks ago, but they didn't have goods for sale except for the OST CD.

No more Toki wo Kakeru Shojo posts for the foreseeable future, until the DVD comes out, maybe?
