In other note, can someone explain why it's LTR and not RTL?

No, and this totally threw us for a loop as well, because it also meant that the page order was screwed up (it starts on the left hand side of two page spreads). My assumption is that these were originally put together for some other format (I'm assuming Shuninta worked on these for GLF) which mandated LTR, but that's really I've got.

The awesome things only comes a times when am like totally broke GOD... I wish to go ....

Incidentally, if anyone's in Osaka in May there's another event being held there called "Maiden's Garden":
