Money just keeps getting harder to find, doesn't it? However, late last night, I found site that seemed to still have the Alien Nine OST up for download. They charge $2 for it, (that's actually a full month's subscription, which includes unlimited access) but if it's there, then it's a great find. It might also explain why it's still there but not on megaupload or other torrent sites: maybe they actually pay something for the rights to upload stuff, and charge customers a fee to make up for it.

Then again, it might not really still be there (I dont have a subscription, so I haven't tried downloading it yet). Still though, I'll try and check for you, cause I'd like to have the OST as well. So if I buy a subscription soon, then I'll try downloading it and I'll let you know if that's real or not.

I can hopefully get that done tonight.

I know right? Money, why are you hiding from us!? ;_:

Any way YAY! I hope it's real. I would be the happiest Alien 9 fan live!
NYAAA~

Hey there, KumiXyuri... I'm sorry to have gotten your hopes up with the prospect of this newfound download location, but it is to my utter dismay to inform you that the place I hoped might give us the Alien Nine OST, was in fact (as I was 99% certain) a complete sham. They had several files listed as the Alien Nine ost, though they were all just packages full of viruses and trojans, spyware, malware, etc. Fortunately, I was 99% certain of this beforehand, so I anticipated the viruses and stuff and had my computer and virus protection placed on high alert, so that I wasn't infected- none of that garbage got through





WHAT I DIDN'T EXPECT,was that after I canceled my $2 subscription to prevent reoccurring fees, the site owners would manage to run back up through my credit stream and steal $35 from my bank account Initially, before that happened, I was pretty sure it was a sham- but a $2 sham, and since there was a one-in-a-million shot that it wasn't a sham, I decided $2 was worth giving it a try. Never ever think that a place is legit because they charge you a fee I guess I wanted the ost badly enough that I ignored that little voice of reason telling me this site was bad

Thankfully though, (I canceled the subscription before they robbed me, by the way), my bank nabbed the record of the transaction while it was still pending (and not yet confirmed) and canceled my finances to them (the cash they stole AND the $2), so I didn't lose anything in the end

I'm really sorry though, that this didn't work, and I'm sorry if I got your hopes up But it was definitely an adventure! But, yeah... If I do ever get the ost from Japan, I'll send you all the song files By the way, I'll keep tabs on it to check back on Yahoo Japan later on to see if there might be another, cheaper, auction for the ost going on.

That's cool. I've haed than"Alien nine ost" doawn load fail 4 times. It seem the file was just gone O.O
You're a good fan~

*bow* Thank you for tring. That alown makes me happy ^-^

Aww, thanks, I'm glad!

Sorry to here you got scammed Repo, glad you didn't lose any money over it. I don't trust sites that charge subscriptions for anime content like anime streaming services etc. Unless they're very highly renown with certified backing from the companies who have the liscences to the anime etc. There's a lot of them out there that are neither and take everyone for a ride before getting shut down by the liscensors or taking peoples money and ignoring customer service emails.

If you'd like the soundtracks I reccomend Yahoo! Japan Auctions. Its just like going to Japan without actually having to. Its the eBay of Japan (they don't use eBay over there, and neither do they use Youtube much either, they use a service called nicovideo instead).
The whole site is in Japanese but if you use a go-between service they will order whatever you want and then send it to you.

I made a page about it here:
http://alien9.crossrealms.net/yahoo-auc ... lien-9.php

The proxy service I used is Celga but there is a list of various proxy services at the bottom there for you to check out and compare fees/policies/services.

And here is info of course on the various soundtracks:
http://alien9.crossrealms.net/products_soundtracks.php

Yahoo Japan Auctions is where I got the anime soundtrack Kyuu I think and also the special Character Album CD with the long title: Alien 9 Special CD Extra - Dai 9 Shogakko Gakugei-kai and also the figurines and a pencilboard.

Though fees do add quite a bit, the exchange rate to Japanese Yen and some nice deals from sellers can sometimes be pretty good makiing the cost not so much.

For the OST it may pop up on eBay or the Yahoo Auctions site. I'd put it on the website here but legally I'm not allowed to. Good luck.

Lol, thanks, and yeah, at least I didn't loose the cash in the end Thanks for the proxy suggestion, I've been interested in trying Yahho Japan Auctions for a while now. I'm actually putting money aside for Rosetta Stone to learn Japanese. (it aint cheap) I've always wanted to learn a second language, and since I'd like to visit Tokyo someday, as well as do online shopping through services such as Yahoo Japan Auctions, I think it would be fun and profitable German and Russian are the other languages I've always wanted to learn Sorry, tangent.

Haha, I totally scored the set of six figurines on ebay. By the way, did you ever assemble and/or paint that Yuri resin kit?

The Yuri kit was too expensive for me, I didn't get it, just posted about it. I used to be addicted to collecting figurines but can't afford it these days:





The Rosetta Stone software looks like a nice way to learn a language.

However to use Yahoo Auctions Japan you need to know more than just the language unfortunately, you also need to live in Japan as unlike eBay the vast majority of sellers don't do overseas shipping. So you may find you still need to use a go-between for most auctions.
I use this site to translate the auctions: http://www.nifty.com/globalgate

But learning Japanese would help with other Japanese sites that do ship overseas. And for finding various other obscure stuff or with using nicovideo etc.

Wow! Very nice collection! I hace a growing collection myself (I have a figure arriving tomorrow) but I'm a far cry from having the funds to buy them liberally right now... I see you have several Rei Ayanami figures, too. I love Rei, haha I bought the 12 inch doll that was just realeased in the states quite recently (reserved in advance, of course) but it hasn't arrived yet. It shipped like, two days ago. Wow, right now it sounds like I by these things by the ton They just seem to come out at the same time...

I want your Pleinair figures! AHH!

And of course, I always knew I would have to pay a service for overseas delivery, but now I'll have a better idea of what I'm buying - I've gotten some very peculiar sentences from translators Also, I want to visit some day, and maybe spend a year or two living there

This thread seems to have gone from being about Hisakawa to completely different things. But oh well.

When I first saw the series, I though Hisakawa was an alien of some kind, maybe a human-alien hybrid. I'm not too sure anymore, though.

Also, if anything is revealed in the manga, don't tell me 'cause I haven't read it yet.

Hope you get to read the manga soon.

I reccomend you purchase The Ultimate Collection. It contains all three mangas as well as the anime episodes on dvd. You can google it to search different stores that are selling it, if you like. Also, here's what they have on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/ ... dition=new

The new one that SHAWNEK is selling for $19.99 (+$2.98 for shipping) looks like a good place to consider. Remember, only order from a positively rated seller or business if one is available And yeah, the topic did accidentally change a little, heheh

And I as well hope you get to read the manga soon!

The Ultimate Collection is great. I have that one too. The only thing its missing sadly is the Alien Nine Emulators manga which is somewhat separate from the rest of the series as it deals with them graduating to a different school.
