Note that RightStuf has high shipping in USA unless you spend over $49 (Canada is ridiculous), but is great when you are ordering bulk to get their amazing warehouse discount.

Marked my calendar! I'm so ready for this omg <3

It feels so weird having legit(?) dates already! I'm so used to everyone beating around the bush with placeholders and stealth edits (looking at you KH2v6) for ages.

Awesome! Pre-ordered both Final Mixes, and I'll probably get the art book a little closer to release. Is that something that's being republished, or is this a first run?

You know, I've never bought an artbook from Yen Press before so I don't know how they print them. I'd assume they go by popularity. I'd pre-order closer to release just to be sure you get one xD

So am I! Bank account officially drained forever.

So... Days will be the last one, and not the first one? Interesting.

Yes, that is correct. The initial report we got from ANN was incorrect with its dates, but was corrected after the panel transcript came out.

Spring, Summer, and Fall will be busy with KH releases.

I was just wondering, which covers from the original manga will they choose to use for these omnibuses? Can't wait to see.

Just preordered KHFM 1+2 and the artbook (just to be safe) and now I'm like hoping to the ends of the earth that they translate the novels as well.

Wherever I am right now
I'm also very curious as to what the covers of all the books will look like. The first thing I did when I saw the link was click both the links below each book in hopes of catching a glimpse of the cover to no avail :( I really want to know what they're going to look like!!!

The KH:FM volumes are releasing the day before my birthday. :D
I will end up getting all the volumes but I will just start out by pre-ordering the KH:FM and CoM volumes along with the artbook.

Barnes & Noble listings added for all volumes (bar Days 2 & 3). They are a lot cheaper, and shipping is free when you purchase a total of $25 and above.

Also Days volume 2 will be out in January 2014, and volume 3 in March 2014.
