LOL me too! I don’t really know what that could be =D
I have to admit, that cover is compelling and will engage bookshoppers! Still, the picture we’re given looks kind of blurry. Hopefully it looks better in person. :D
And I bet it does.
ATV = Hagrid on the motorbike, I think….lol. Interesting.
I did not know that the Japanese readers had to wait more than a year for their translation, that is so long!!! I don’t really like the cover, but at least the cover does not give away the whole end (as several other covers do).
That is a terrible bookcover. Look at the english title: Harry Potter and (HARRY POTTER LOGO) the deathly hallows. Just terrible. it’s supposed to be scene where they move Harry to the burrow i think.
it not the best thing. i still love the American version i think is really hot. you can spot it from miles away. i dunno i just love it
Hmm, that is not a very interesting cover. I wouldn’t look twice at that. Sorry.
Ok, does anybody else think this looks like the cover of Meatloaf’s Bat Out of Hell CD????
definatly not as good as the american cover!
definatly not as good as the american cover!
I guess its ok. Its kind of abstract and harry isnt featured on the cover so that upsets me.
Live, Love, Harry Potter!
i’ll be in japan anyway….i can go to the book release again : )
I love all the little people on brooms in the sky… very subtle, but key. I like it.
definatly not as good as the american cover!
Um is that Hagrid on Sirius’ motorbike or an old woman on a scooter? :P
Looks like a weird mixture between Amano-sensei’s art and Miyazaki. Strange yet oddly pleasing…
LMAO Saffron. YOUR’RE RIGHT! I will never be able to look at Hagrid the same again! XD
i think the cover has a theme going for it. i also think that harry is featured on the cover…i think the theme for it is “Escape” like hagrid and harry escaping from voldemort and harry escaping from gringotts…that’s just what it appeals to me…who knows
