E.m.u: live event pamphlets

(With huge thanks to Lina_inverse78 who kindly contributed everything on this page!)

These are unusual and quite rare bits of M/E.M.U paraphernalia produced in conjunction with various live events for M and E.M.U during their run. Sadly most of these events were only a live on-the-day thing and not recorded for posterity (although parts of the final event in 2000 were released on VHS). Some relate to M and some to E.M.U but I think it better to group them together since they're so seiyuu-centric.

E.M.U & Sotsugyou M final event (2000)
(Excerpts from this show were released on the Oretachi no Sotsugyoushiki VHS)
Lina's Description: 52 pages. Of all the pamphlets, this is definitely the best and most collectable. It has a hard cover with embossed letters, and beautiful glossy pages. It includes illustrations from the M+ manga, lengthy interviews with each member of the band and the script of the last drama they performed onstage at that event.
