Christmas Decorations In JapanI personally don't--in my family we hold off until the day after Thanksgiving to put that stuff up. One reason is that we all like fall stuff and are kind of reluctant to put it away. The other reason is that the day after Thanksgiving is a terribl...
Analog to Digital TV Switchover JapanThe switchover here occurred in June. It mostly has to do with the bandwitdth analog versus digital takes, actually. Digital broadcasts take up much less than analog, and take up a different swath of usable frequencies. As such, the stations benef...
CANDY BOY当たるI discovered your site when I was trying to find information on Figma Saber--DC.com just kept on coming up, and eventually I found your Goodsmile tour, whereupon I was sold on both Figma Saber and DC.com for good. XD
I like that you have a mix of li...
呂蒙子明I'm asking for funds to buy a Dollfie for Christmas. If that ends up not being enough, I'll just ask for additional money for my birthday. XD
If DDs cost $100 instead of $400+, I would SO have one already. XD The quality would probably be lower if...
路上パソコン族Trooper with a mac sounds fun, but you know what would be better? Set it up with two other people--you in trooper gear, they in normal street clothes with laptops. As you walk by, what they do on the computer seems to control you. . . and then they d...
Japan HairdressersI haven't gotten anything other than split-end trims in the past three years or so, and those my mom usually does. She doesn't talk much when cutting my hair, though she will at other times.
The last time I went to a hairdresser I was trying to re...
フィギュアリリース第2弾I could take that spare Saber Lily off your hands, Danny. ;)
I understand why people are drawn to the silicone doll bodies, but they just don't do it for me. Most of the time they aren't articulated quite as naturally as resin or vinyl bodies, and...
ドールショウ26Don't be shy, tell us how you feel. ¬.¬ Just because someone wants or has a Dollfie doesn't make them a posturing prick or a lunatic who can't tell the difference between real life and the land of let's pretend. Some people like the customizability...
ドールショウ26Lovely! Wish I could have gone, but being on another continent made that a little difficult. XD
Also, if anyone knows where this wig came from, I'd be very grateful: http://www.dannychoo.com/post/en/25229/Doll+Show+26.html#image81733 The color is ex...
サーニャ・V・リトヴャクDollfie intensive =WIN. :D I think with that first custom one they took the head off a limited doll and just changed eyes/wig, and maybe body.
UIデザイナー探しているI've got PS and some Flash experience, but not at all confident in web design or my Japanese font skills. (English type, however, I'm a freakin' nazi.) Hm, might take a whack at the 2-D girl drawing bit when it comes up though! Maybe by the time you...
なのは ねんどろいどプラスCute! Interesting that you can preorder a movie ticket this far out. Nobody does anything like that here, even for guaranteed huge opening turnouts like Harry Potter, Star Trek, or other movies with big fan followings. The furthest out you can buy a...
なのは ねんどろいどプラスAs I recall those were either customs or kits, not official releases. Sad, but I'm betting loli-version fans will still have a nice wave of new merchandise to choose from thanks to the film.
Halloween's big here, especially in my parent's town. There's a street there full of Victorian houses that all just go crazy for Halloween, so the city actually closes the street to vehicle traffic on the holiday to make it safer for the mobs and mo...
ハヤテのごとくDon't know these characters, and their design doesn't make me doki-doki suru, you know? Even if their molded plastic hair didn't bother me, their clothes aren't tailored at all. They may as well be wearing bags.
I think plastic hair should be save...
安藝 貴範This isn't so much an individual product suggestion as a product line suggestion. ^^; Anyway, I would love to see someone give Volks some direct competition on the 1/3 vinyl anime doll front, and I can't think of anyone better than GSC to do it!
姫野あおいI know I've seen something like this online before--the company also made anthropomorphized animal plushies at 1/1 scale. Oh, and some so-called "vampire" 1/1 plushies. That company's style basically meant you'd be f**king a muppet.
かりんAw, cute name! Yeah, it definitely fits. I'd keep a close eye on that wig though; some paler pink hair colors are known as "fading pinks" because they fade drastically, sometimes almost turning white.
日本は衰退していくI'm in the camp of people who thinks that a lower population is probably a blessing in disguise.
This has got me thinking, though, about how population and economy are intertwined. As far as I know, the 20th century saw the quickest growth of popul...
日本は衰退していくThe big reason waste is such a problem is that most reactors aren't that different from ones built in the 50's, fundamentally, and are grossly inefficient. As I recall nuclear reactors typically can only draw about 5% out of any given sample of ura...
日本は衰退していくYes, exactly! We may be in the minority, especially on this particular site, but that doesn't mean we're mythical like purple unicorns or something. And abandon your hobbies? No way, dude! Share them is more like it. =P
