Hestia is bestia – 1/8th scale Kotobukiya figure

A few months ago I was lucky enough to snag this beauty during a sale on Hobbysearch, she’s now sold out on there too sadly. Their most recent sale prompted me to post this photo’s I took a while ago. Because there were more Hestia’s in this new sale… the Genco mount one, with the pillow(now sold out since this morning), and a Cu-Poche one. There’s one other, but that one didn’t tempt me. However I now have 2 more Hestia’s on the way…….. I think I have a problem… Many many photo’s below the cut…

Punchline Limited Edition – PSVita

Front of the box. Was a bigger box than I expected too.

So I love this series. Unconditionally. Irrationally even. So much so, I went and preordered the game, which is currently only in Japanese. Not only that, it was the limited edition, with a drama CD which for the most part I won’t be able to understand XD. I considered preordering it on Amazon, but at that time they still didn’t ship games outside of Japan. So I went with Play-Asia. A site I’ve used before for things here and there. Never a game costing this much… I figured I was going to get smacked with a hefty import tax and VAT and what have you. So I prepared myself mentally. Hell. It was only shipped last week pretty much, 2 weeks tops, so I wasn’t expecting anything to arrive yet, usually Play-Asia’s shipping is pretty slow…. so you can imagine my shock and delight when it turned up this morning. No card saying ‘PAY THIS NOW’ or anything. It just appeared… it even had the full amount declared on the box, AND it was marked as Merchandise… not gift…. so I’m baffled as to why I didn’t get slapped with import tax. Not complaining. Just dazed and confused. Happily so. (More pics of the unboxing below the cut.)

Spring Anime Season 2016 – Round up

I love Ako. And her psuedo yandere-ness XD

So I tried out quite a few of the new series out this season. Too many even… with the 3 episode rule used in most cases unless I couldn’t even get through one episode… These aren’t in any order. I just watched as they came out, but wrote stuff not in order. Because I’m a heathen. OP’s & pics of said 27 series below.

No Game No Life Collector’s Edition – So purdy <3

Unboxed No Game No Life region 2 :3 Not as many extra’s, but I’m glad to have it ❤

So this arrived today. I am excite. I did enjoy this series greatly. It’s colour palette, it’s comedy, it’s ecchi-ness and references. It was cute and fun and made me start reading the light novel too 🙂 See below for more photo’s 😀 of the photo cards too! Some have so much boob I couldn’t show my colleagues at work lol.

Autumn Season Anime 2014 – Grisaia no Kajitsu – Le Fruit de la Grisaia (SPOILERS)

Michiru, the blonde, is the one out of these 3 I like best. Amane on the right, super hard up girl. And Yumiko on the left, who brandishes a razor blade at the drop of a hat.

So I initially wasn’t going to continue with this. But after seeing some comments on Twitter about certain episodes and reading a little about the visual novel, I decided to give it another go. I’m still not sure if that was a good idea or not to be honest… after what happened…

I’m liking Sachi and Makina right now. Michiru is cool too. The girls I don’t like seem to be the most violent or hard up girls. But there are more, less main cast, girls to be introduced yet. We still need more on Yuuji’s backstory. That’s one of the things that intrigues me. The fanservice I can live with. I’ve weathered worse on the boobs and butts front of anime.

New set up – GIRLS EVERYWHERE!!

The new set up for my figures. There are soooo many more that need to come, and alll my figma’s and nendoroids.

So I came back to Birmingham yesterday, with some, not all, of my figures. Glad I have Chie, Ayu, Tamaki and some of my To Heart crew. There are soooo many more that need to come. Like Makoto, and the mini figures, nendo’s, figma’s, basically a massive selection. I HAVE MISSED THEM SO. They’re so goddamn pretty.

Seriously. Tamaki. She’s soooooooooo cute. And yes her ‘outfit’ is ridiculously scanty, but I love her face. And Yuki’s. I need all my bikini girls back so they can be together lol. I miss Haruka T-T

And I stand by my favourite figure maker, Kotobukiya. Most of the ones here are Kotobukiya… 8 of them anyway. So many more to come… I CAN’T WAIT!!!
