I've been avoiding buying any Japanese vocal audio CDs for some years now due to the insanely bad audio quality (massive dynamic range compression), but I got so into Angel Beats that I actually bought some audio CDs. Some of them weren't insanely bad. And the vocal songs on the Ikamusume drama CDs actually had pretty good audio quality, and since I like Hii-chan's voice (spoken & singing), I jumped on this. Well, I very much regret buying it. It's so bad, I'm reconsidering picking up Iwasawa side Gldemo CD singles, despite the fact that those are from completely different producer and record company.

First pressing comes with a DVD with an animated music video, using "kore ga umi e no ai ja naIKA!" from track 3. That one is a bit less compressed, but I can't say it sounds all that much better than the CD version. Regardless, it's pretty obvious, so I made a comparison image (3).

Oh, and it also comes with a sticker. The art on the sticker is very similar to that on the booklet cover, but she's wearing a swim suit instead. I've created a *teaser* image with 0.1 second blinking overlay of that (image 2) :P
