My 25th Anniversary Nishida Hikaru DVD Collection Arrives!!

Whooohooo~! As you can see, my CD Japan package came in today, and so for the very first time, a DIGITAL DVD enters my Nishida Hikaru Collection!!! So excited! Not only do I get to FINALLY see the clips from her first two video collections in crisp digital form, but also the later clips which would have filled her third video collection, if they had ever made one, that is!

From her First Video collection, we have

1. Fifteen

2. Nice Catch!

3. Oh My God!! Da Ne~

4. Tokimeite

5. Ikkiterutte Subarashi

6. Kagayaki! Kudasai

And then from her Second Video collection, we have,

7. Namida Tomaranai

8. Kitto Aiga Aru

9. Jinsei Kaechyau Natsu Kamone

10. C’Mon3

11. Go! Paradise*

12. Watashi No No.1

And then her later releases, including a few I’d never even seen before: 

13. Melody

14. Aa Honto Yannachyau

15. Love Is Changing

16. Dan Dan Musume

17. Pure

18. As Pure As

19. Sorairo

And then we come to a handful of Live Clips from Hikaru’s Video Concerts:

Pun Pun Pun (from Manatsu No Surprise Concert 1990)

Koi Wa Shiroi T-Shirt and

Kokoro Dake Sobani Iru~Here In My Heart

(from Manatsu Jouzu LADY vol. 2 Concert 1992)

Burning Tonight and

Jinsei Kaechyau Natsu Kamone

(from Live Two-Four 1996 Concert)

And one extra bonus that was so cool that I didn’t even know about was that Hikaru herself doing VIDEO COMMENTARY along with a few other people from the MANASEPRO team about the clips as they played! It’s times like this that I REALLY wish I understood Japanese better! Had to watch the clips mostly guessing what they were talking about, oooh, subs would have been SO NICE! Still, a very nice bonus!

After watching the video (twice!), I just HAD to dig up all my Hikaru Goods, and decided to take pics of 'em all! In celebration of the this awesome Nishiida Hikaru DVD release, I present my entire Nishida Hikaru Collection along with its new addition!

First up, my Nishida Hikaru 3cm Singles Collection…

Then Albums, EPs and Maxi-Singles…

Hikaru Photobooks and Magazines:

And my Hikaru Videos including the *new* DVD Collection!!!

Just about the only thing I wish they could have included were the commercial inserts that were in the original two video clip collections because those were just as fun to watch as the videos themselves! But I’l still pleased as punch here- So NICE to see my favorite Pony Canyon Idol girls in DVD format! Now if only RIBBON can FINALLY get a DVD treatment of their own, I will be SET!

* This Single was a song Hikaru sang with a group called Sweet Beat Soul, MAN, whatever happened to these guys? They accompanied Hikaru on a couple of her later concerts and they were SOOOO GOOD! The guy and girl had such beautiful voices, they really gave the concerts an added PUNCH!
