Just when I had thought I was satisfied with receiving a trap cake and drawing my Marimite yuri chalkboard picture, my birthday got even better when yesterday three of my friends surprised me with something I had given up on getting a while ago—Alter Unison Vita! I know I mentioned that wanted Vita a few times before but the idea of them actually getting a figure for me as a present completely shocked me. Now that I have been graciously given Vita, my Lyrical Nanoha figure count now totals three along with Alter Fate and Good Smile Nanoha. Unfortunately I don’t have those two with me at the moment but of course I still took photos of Vita by herself. After all she charged into the Cradle and single-handedly destroyed its engine. Seriously I thought she was going to die back then. Anyways, onto the photos. Read the rest of this entry »
With the holiday season coming up and the figure companies showing off their newest offerings for next year, now is definitely the time to put down money on preorders – but as excited as I am about all the great new releases, a part of me is in a panic! Although I live above the otaku poverty line, getting my hands on the new figures that I just can’t live without will surely demolish my entire savings. I won’t have any regrets, but I’m going to have to learn to live with the consequences.
Doujin developer fly-system has released a new trailer for their mahou shoujo crossover Magical Battle Arena. Unlike their previous videos which only featured Takamachi Nanoha and Lina Inverse, the new trailer has footage featuring all 8 known characters.
I was looking forward to seeing Fate Testarossa and Kinomoto Sakura’s attacks most but the most interesting characters in the video are the two originals. Kirara uses two glove-mounted dual blades for an interesting way of fighting. Sarara probably has the coolest weapon, a bow with a dozen bits. With 13 beams firing simultaneously, her super-mode special is quite something to look at. I really can’t wait for the full release so I can play as her.
If you haven’t played the game demo yet, you can download it directly on the official download page.
After weeks of waiting, it’s finally here! My Lelouch figma.BP from Max Factory/Banpresto!
I don’t usually go out of my way to buy figurines, but when I saw this one on preorder sale at HobbyLink Japan back in February, I knew I had to have it. Being the huge Code Geass fan that I am, this figurine elicited the kind of “must-have” reaction from me that’s usually reserved only for the newest Gundam model kits.
Being perpetually short on money, I have been resisting the urge to buy anything not necessary to my survival but I am finding it increasingly difficult to do so. The last figure I bought was the GOOD SMILE COMPANY 1/8 Takamachi Nanoha to complement my ALTER 1/8 Fate Testarossa. I really like those two but the lack of any new figures is saddening.

This past Sunday night while trying not to fall asleep finishing my sakubun writing assignment, I did the usual thing for this kind of situation and started lurking on /a/. Luckily, I found a mildly amusing thread in which Anons would post their ideal families if they consisted of anime characters. The amusing and often ridiculous combinations people came up with got myself thinking, “what would my idealized animu family look like?” After much deliberation, I present my picks for my perfect family.

It seems kind of weird to me but I’ve already made it to my fiftieth post on リリカル☆スパーク! Not bad for something I started as homework for my Japanese 101 class (and continuing on for 102). The big 50 also coincides with my birthday. That’s right, today I am a 19 year old otaku who has managed to NOT become a Hikikomori nor a NEET. Read the rest of this entry »
I suppose I should make a list of my interests so that everyone can get to know me (or at least my internet persona) better. As you can probably tell, I love anime/manga as well as video games. I also like Japanese dorama (although I have not watched much) and Japanese music. In addition I LOVE the internet and drawing. Read the rest of this entry »
Watched PV2. Pretty impressed by the 5 girl unit version of The world is all one. Yayoi and Yukiho's parts of the dance are so cute. #imas204:14:18 AM July 30, 2010from web
