Edit Notes

This is by far the poorest organized box set I've ever seen.

- There is a flimsy fold-out insert that simply provides track names and some simple information on the new box set packaging but no artist information at all
- The bonus DVD contains a PDF called "NADIA The special explanation book" that appears to be just a giant high quality scan of the inserts that came with the original 1993 print. They are equally bad.
- The vocal track credits appear to be in some random order in what is 10+ pages of lyrics for all of the vocal songs. It's really annoying to match up the tracks in the inserts to their respective tracks on the discs when they're in no apparent order.
- The table of track information for Discs 5 ~ 8 (all the BGM tracks) doesn't note the artist at all but rather the "source" that the track came from (I. THE SECRET OF BLUE WATER - TYCY-5136; II. THE SECRET OF BLUE WATER Vol. 2 - TYCY-5144; III. THE SECRET OF BLUE WATER Vol. 3 - TYCY-5151; V. THE SECRET OF BLUE WATER -MUSIC IN BLUE WATER- - TYCY-5169; VIII. THE SECRET OF BLUE WATER KARAOKE COLLECTION - TYCY-5189) so all the credit information has to be discerned from those 5 albums. Some of the albums have good scans but all of the database entries have good information except for Karaoke Collection, which I added from these inserts. But given that it's a Karaoke album anyway, the non-karaoke credits from the other albums can be applied.
- There even appears to be Java or some sort of simple copy protection on the PDF file because you can't open it except from the disc otherwise it displays an error.

- Corrected track times
- Corrected Disc 3 M16 typo: Tabidahi --> Tabidachi
- Updated the JP (1), (2), (3) and (4)'s to ①, ②, ③, ④ per track titles
- Changed the ♡ to ♥ on D10, M08,M16 to match the album it's from (all we have is a back scan).
- Removed "-20" on D8, M24, it's a typo
- Changed "独立野原党" to "独立原野党". It's hard to identify on the scan we have for TYCY-5307 but it's clear enough to validate the kanji we have. However, while printed as "独立野党", I believe it's actually supposed to be "独立野党", although it doesn't make much more sense. It appears to be the name of an Opposition Force in an old 70's TV series called Iron King but it's the best hit I could find for any of them.
