Finally managed to get a glimpse of the other 2 New Year CDs which I did not buy. Wow, the 3 Guava Trio cover is so nice and it's obvious that they are wearing the hakata in tune with the New Year Day release date. It seems like there is no talk segment for them thus the CD is cheaper than the Meganes' single. As such, there's only one track i.e. Brand New Day and the karaoke version. No wonder the price was so different from the rest when I first saw details of this CD. Anyway, it is rare to see Jirou with his eyes wide open since he's usually in the sleeping mode unless he's playing in a match and he looks quite good on the cover. Marui is so cute as he munches on snacks like usual. I have to say that I find Aoi quite out-of-place when he stands beside these two guys. Maybe Gakuto might be a better choice to form 3 Guava Trio since they share common characteristics in height, play style and the cutesy appearance.
With regards to the Seigaku Trio, I really do not think the sales of this title would do well based on the popularity of these 3 guys especially Horio. As such, this seems to explain why there is a need for so many guests in this CD i.e. Echizen Ryoma, Tezuka Kunimitsu, Inui Sadaharu, Atobe Keigo, Ibu Shinji, Kuki Kiichi, Karupin and even Principal Ishikawa from Seigaku. A reason why this costs more than the other 2 releases is due to it having 3 versions of the title track and a bonus recording "Tennis no Oujisama Off The Radio" which should involve the guests named above. Well, I don't see myself buying this CD just to listen to the bonus track though so it's highly likely that I'll buy this single. The cover picture looks kind of plain too so I really wonder if this is a last-minute production from Interchannel.
