29 year old bloke.
Into Anime, figures, games and 3d graphics (specifically character design and modeling).
Loves Japanese culture and would like to live in Tokyo working for a 3D games or broadcast company someday.
東京フォトウォーク 6Those are some superb photos - especially the shinjuku skyline ones. What camera were these taken with? Im looking for a good camera that is borderline pocket size and takes good low-light shots. My Powershot let me down quite a few times in my month...
エアガンAw - i have MP5 SMG, spas 12 shotgun, and desert eagle airsoft guns and theyre great for admiring, holding and just looking cool. I brought them a few years ago, but now, any airsoft gun sold in the uk has to be predominantly coated in luminous paint...
ケータイ音姫Haha - this is brilliant! Great choice of sound effect too - Kerplonk!
Bit strange how popular these sound making devices are - people will just know you are making cacky noises when you hear them go off.
Would be funny if people used the portable...
ガンダム解体写真Balls! I was hoping to go there and see it when i visit in october, but i guess im too late. Someone should release an official press release about its success, why it was taken down, and what they are doing with it now. It only makes sense as fans h...
Hair Cut JapanHow are these places with english? I usually have grade 2 on the sides and grade 6 on the top. Would they understand it? I dont need a haircut yet, but ill be in japan for all of october, so i might need one while im there.
New Narita Express E259Nice. We land in japan on oct 2nd, so hopefully we'll get a chance to try it out. I usually take the airport limosine bus, but the last 2 times i went to japan, it took 2-3 hours to reach tokyo due to traffic.
フィギュアコレクションUsavich! Nice to see that is popular in japan. When i was working for a 3d production company in london, the director of that series was working there - talented guy
ミライガイアIm kinda glad that the member posts are gone as many of them were irrelevant, silly or unintresting. The main content is, and always has been the reason i come here. Even if this was just a standard wordpress blog with only the main content, i would...
フィギュアコレクションyes - i have 5 :-)
I used to have tons, but have downsized considerably to reduce clutter and get that 'zen' clean feeling of having fewer trinkets :-D
踏切Im impressed with the quality of that camera. Ive looked it up and it looks pretty decent. Is the low light performance good? I like the fact that it has a lower megapixels, so that the sensor can handle low-light better. My current recently brought...
一週間の東京 43A buscuit haul it is :-)
Im in Japan for a month. Spending the first 10 days, and the last 2 days in Tokyo.
Im not really into dolfies! Ill probably be bringing back a few books, some CDs and a wife!
一週間の東京 43Damn - shops have started selling PG tips? What will i bring for you from england now?
Love those driving shots at the end. Is it advisable for a gaijin to drive in japan? Not nessesarily tokyo, but more like around kyushu in a rental car..?
アイアンマン コスチュームLooks badass!
Im not a big fan of american comic characters, but i do love the design of his suit. Great sculpting and little details. When you consider how much a life-size model of it would be, its great that its actually wearable.
Tokyo Figure Show リポートGreat to see things are all falling into place - figma mirai looks great! Even though my otaku powers are more or less faded, and i dont buy poseable figures, i will definately buy a figma mirai to support you!
Nice to see vitamin water is infiltrat...
What gundam figure is that? Is that a master grade?
Ive been after a decent RX-78 figure (like the odaiba gundam) but dont really want a kit as i know i wont be able to make it look as cool and detailed as that pic above.
Does the RX-78 fix figura...
一週間の東京 42Nice post. About the food ordering thing - me and a few friends once went to a resturant in shinjuku, but there were no english menus or pictures. Randomly picked several dishes out, and most were fine, except the horrible looking steamed fish head w...
お台場ガンダム・オープニングセレモニーthis just looks awesome - im gonna cry if its not there when i go in october. I hope they decide to make it permanent, or at least extend it by a few months!
東京でお買い物Nice update. Why do you keep tabasco sauce in the fridge though?
Are these costco places on the outskirts of the major areas? Ive never seen one. Is there one in shibuya? Would be nice to get more choice than the average combini.
一週間の東京 40Nice update - these are my fave DC posts. Out of curiosity, could us gaijin sell games/ dvds/ books at book off or any other trade-in store, or do you have to be a resident or a member or something?
6月のGETものIts great that you get tons of free stuff, but dont you get 'stressed'? I find that having too many posessions, especially ones that you may or may not want stresses you out a little. Those figmas with all their packaging and accessories in particula...
D5000Those are some mighty good night shots. I brought a new camera recently - a canon superzoom (SX200IS) and im a bit dissapointed with the low light/ high ISO performance. It has full manual control, so maybe i should stop using auto mode and find a se...
海外オタクの脱オタ行動Ive been going off anime and otaku culture for a while now (i blame too much moe and the decline of anime quality) but i have still kept 4 or 5 of my absolute favourite figures. Destroying them, then insulting otaku seems a bit silly. I made a small...
日本のアニメバブル崩壊I barely watch new anime anymore as it is mostly full of moe-licious loli girls with little clothing, simpering personalities and huge tits. Everyone seems to love this (hence the abundancy of it) so it just keeps getting churned out, with quality, c...
