Personally, 936 yen for this Kindle edition strikes me as a bit pricey. It is a collection of photos, mostly (as far as I can tell from the preview) of scenes that have become fairly familiar to readers of this page. It doesn’t include the stories found in the Japanese edition. The Japanese edition, moreover, is available in softcover for about the same price as the English digital edition. Also, “Emergency Publication” appears in red toward the top of the cover but the Japanese version came out in May of last year. If the money were going to a charity, that would be different but I don’t see any such indication.
