As I have recently expended FAR too much currency on other things (stupid To Aru likes), I don't think I'll be getting slutty adult Mikuru. But in regards to the Nagato Nendo, taking into account her last Nendo release, shit FLEW off the shelves, th...
I would choose that they make NOTHING, as they already have WAY too many figures of which I desire, but cannot afford. ONE exception- that they somehow do a re-release of FREEing's 1/4 bunny Asakura, since she's now rare, even more expensive, and sti...
The most amazing thing about Hong Kong is how frickin' close that bus gets to the neon sign in the first pic. ^_^ Unfortunately, the 7-11's there DID NOT HAVE SLURPEES. T^T But that could've changed since the SEVEN years I was there last. Also, I d...
25 Minutes?!!! What an unusual unit of time to charge for!! I have a budding interest in photography and that was the most blatant part of this post for me.
"impress your GF or BF on your first date with your Otaku knowledge?" LOL. First date. The perfect companion when the obsessive-compulsive mind has reached its storage limit. Interestingly, I still haven't learned or even come across the Japanese ter...
I wouldn't think you'd go bankrupt, I'd say. Doujin is just so much cheaper over there. Plus, there's always e-hentai. I would totally do up my stairs like that.... ....at my OTHER residence. ....and I still'd need to raid a doujin store's dumpster...
Wait, how come I never got the idea that Megami was "Playboy for 2D girls"?! ...At least not for the localized copies I bought in China. Well, I did get a decent amount of posters...
Also, the anime mags that had discs with full songs and episodes (and goodies) for 15 yuan were very, very rad ("Dòng Gǎng Xīn" coming to mind). Sometimes copywlight vioration is awesome (although I'm not actually sure that's the case with these mag...
Shanghai is quite an awesome and kickass place, for the most part. Expect to see people making their living begging and expensive but not-up-to-par pizza, though. Quite shockingly, for such a large and international city, there is a severe shortage...
Red Cliff might be be most awesome thing to come out of China since the Ming Dynasty. I was in China in the summer of '08, when I saw DVDs of Red Cliff on sale in a Tesco in Shanghai, while it was still in theaters (huh). Well, although it was in a...
Too...many...euphamisms....can...no longer understand....the difference between....subtlety and outrighteousness..... On another note, stupid Japan for overdesigning things. It looks like your dolphin would experience trauma and lacerations from the...
Something tells me that this "somewhat fugly" picture was specifically chosen by Danny because of his "connections" with Good Smile and Figma. Esspecially since most other reviews have rather attractive shtos.
Wait, lemme get this straight.... THEY WHERE THROWING THESE 1/4 FIGURES AWAY?!! God I hate you limey bastard. IMO, I never really thought "Haruhi" was all that "different" from "Mikuru". Which is why I always thought she was such a damn hypocrite fo...
Dammit. And I had to just pony up and finally buy "normal" Tsuruya at effin' Comic Con where I done got my camera stolen. I need a way to destroy this Good Smile Company so I stop blowing my money on them. And IMO, a realistic proportioned Figma i...
Oh Danny, will you ever stop the bashing of your fellow Brits? Alas, I didn't see any free samples either at the Tesco's I went to in China. Strangely, I also prefered going there over Wal-mart out of a misinformed sense of nationalism. Wiki-ing fa...
Wait, why would my captive dolphin need tissues for its heal......Oh, I see what you did there... Even innocent uses for this product, i.e. "sneezing", would wield nasty results.
(Though I have to wonder how they get secondhand Japanese manga in the States. Imported? But under $4 each? Still, I got at nice deal on some Gunslinger Girl that I havnen't the faintest idea how to read.)
"One of the reasons why Japan has the highest internet speeds in the world at cheap prices - telecommunication wires are mostly above ground in residential areas and are easy to install." Wait, what? It's the same here in the U.S., but you'd be luck...
A-ho-li Shi-to! It looks so unbelievable that it seems staged! I can't see how this can be anything but detrimental to Japan's oh-so-stringent train schedules. Solution? MOAR TRAIN! There, problem solved! I can't believe they didn't think of it...
I didn't think it was possible, but I DON'T want Figma Ryomou. Besides, I still need to complete my Haruhi girls collection (cheaply, luls). Only have Haruhi and Mikuru right now. Also, although I have (lovely) Figma Saber, Dark Saber would be appre...
