@ Cyclone - December, for Tianyi V4, is the estimated release date based on the whole "delivery date: Before 23:59 of December 30". It's utterly atrocious and sometimes that "delivery date" part of the product page comes and goes. Her preorder date is October 1, 2017.

It's disorganized and kills off hype in my opinion. I seriously dislike the strong silence that's occuring after preorders open and we're waiting for the actual product to come out a month or so later (1 month and a few days for Longya, nearly 3 months for Tianyi V4 so far). And SHN is literally sitting there not releasing nearly a thing for any of their preorder vocals (didn't release anything after Longya's second demo and Tianyi V4's demos are... highly unknown at least to me. They show a lot of songs but never specify which version of Tianyi they are, so I'm sitting here following whatever the Chinese fandom thinks is a demo at this point). Beijing Photek at least had the decency to release demos 2-4 between the preorder and actual release period. :/

Miku Chinese's release was a mess. Opened for preorder on August 24, expected to release September 10, two of the Taobao shops saying she would release September 2, change it back to September 10, but then was released early anyways (estimated September 5).

Xin Hua V4 and Japanese was finally a refreshing thing to deal with because they both had set releases AND digital versions releasing at the same time. TTwTT
