1st EP 'Mai no chouten wo kiwameshi toki, watashitachi wa ikanaru konnan wo mo uchiyaburu' (23rd November 2022)
TEAM SHACHI's 1st EP, released by their independent label Waku Waku Records, is titled 'Mai no chouten wo kiwameshi toki, watashitachi wa ikanaru konnan wo mo uchiyaburu' (that's a mouthful!). It will be released on November 23rd in two editions:
Tokai edition:
1. Edome
2. Buchopa
3. Hikari
4. Tokai Compliance
Kaito edition:
1. Edome
2. Buchopa
3. Hikari
4. Kaito Girl
Both editions are priced at ¥1,500.
Sadly, it looks like this time there will be no bonus blu-rays included.

To be released in one month
And no way to order/reserve it yet
That's a bit odd

They just announced the official details today. I'm sure pre-orders will appear online next week!

Yeah but if you announce a release (in such detail) you should have possibilities to order ready at the same time, not a few days later

Edome will be released digitally tonight at midnight (though if you switch your VPN to New Zealand, you can listen to it now).
The music video will be released next week at 8PM JST.

This was previously announced, but in addition to Buchopa and Edome, Tokai Compliance is also getting a music video, which will be released in December.

I've had a look at YouTube New Zealand, and it looks like both bonus songs will be available in the digital release.

Looks like I was able to purchase them with japonicamarket from mercari.com
https://jp.mercari.com/item/m64290217322
But the same seller seems to have more copies...

I was able to purchase the mp3 version from Amazon, but unfortunately, the shops that sell in flac still have it as unavailable for some reason. You can subscribe to their service and listen to it, but you can't buy it.

Probably went to all the release events and bought way too many copies with the photo ops, etc.Mattthecat wrote: ↑23 Nov 2022, 08:32Looks like I was able to purchase them with japonicamarket from mercari.com

The new EP has earned second place on Tower Records' weekly album chart (first place on the Indies Album Chart). Nowhere to be found in the top 50 on the weekly Oricon chart though...

The new EP is in 7th place in albums for last week's Billboard Japan Hot 100.

OK. Apparently, they're number 6 on the Oricon album chart with 7,425 copies sold. For comparisons, TEAM sold 7,460 copies in its first week back in February, and also opened in 6th place!

Is that only hardcopies or digitals as well?
Is it even available digitally?

I've only seen a purchasable digital version on Amazon. On other streaming services you can't buy it, but you can subscribe to the service if you want to listen to all the songs. Buchopa, Edome, and Hikari are still available for purchase individually everywhere though.
