Wow, are you guys feeling a little neglected? Haha, yeah I'm feeling pretty neglected, too. Work is going well. Might be able to do some posting during the days. I am still working out how my hours will work. Also, my car died like a mother fucker. So I am working that out, getting a new one. So that's why I've been late this week. Apologies. Well, let's roll this shit up.
Junjo Romantica is getting an anime. Some site reported it, but pulled it. Haha. Yaoi shame made them remove it. YAOI SHAME!
Ramen Tenshi Pretty Menma, a game world from Genshiken (really? I need to reread Genshiken…), is getting its own anime. Hopefully they keep the Kio character designs. I LOVE HIS LADIES!
Why bootleg the Air movie, when you can just download it?! The links are a bit down the page. Look for the screen shots and the words "PART 1" and so on. There are three parts.
Less eroero, is Ryofu. She's a bit cheaper… you know… not a trillion yen.
1/7 scale Etna coming out in… shit when was it, one second. In September for 5,880 yen.
YAY NENDOROID! WOOWOOWOO!! Nao and Kotona Elegance. I used to be skeptical of this series, but man… they've come into their own.
RANDALL PURCHASE:Good Smile's Kino has touched my heart. I'll come up with a better tag for this shit to let you know what I'm buying at some point. Haha. She's out for 4,800 yen in December.
Well, I skipped a bunch of figures, and they were OK, but I think you guys will live. NOT WORTH MY TIME! INEEDSLEEP! FUCK YOUUUUU! But still, I love you. I love you all. Especially the girls. Awwww yeah.
Hey boys and girls. I'm still trying to get my days and nights all worked out so I can post most efficiently. You know how it is. Also, I'm getting a new video card so… you know. Anyway, on with the thing.
Anime/Manga/Games
Weiner weiner. Looks like they're making Grave of the Fireflies into a live action movie. No news on when it comes out.
And that's really it, it looks like. Maybe, I'm crazy. But hey! What seems like it. Sorry for the delays, etc, etc. I'll get shit under control in a week or two, you know?
Well, you know, I've been chilling out max and relaxing all cool. Right, I'll stop that now. I'm going to go ahead fill you fuckers in on the news from the week. HOW DOES THAT SOUND?! It sounds good, doesn't it? Well, good. I'll go ahead and get going with that now. SEE?! I'm not dead! Just lazy on my week off.
More sweet yaoi love… Ai no Kotodama is getting a live-action movie. It's coming out this fall.
The Shigeshoshi manga is getting turned 12-episode live action TV show. What's with all the live action again these days?
Figures
These were around forever ago, but it's POSABLES FROM SENGOKU RANCE! Yep. I don't think I feel like looking up info on them… Names and such. I used to know them. Nanjo is 8,190 yen and the other is 9,240 yen. They're out in August.
In the same series, same price, same month, Capcom is giving us Kosaka Shigure. She isn't as good looking to me as Furinji, but still! STILL! 5,800 yen in October.
Yessir, that was a good quick rollup. Glad this week was sort of slim. LETS ME BE LAZY! YAY! I wish I could just be lazy for forever. FOREVER! Yeaaah, just trying to fill space. Ok, I'm done.
Wellllll, long weekend. What can I say? I needed it. I'm still on vacation, sort of. Not sure how the new job is going to be for posting news. I'll give you an update on that next week. Looks like most people got their prizes. Anyone who got one, but isn't a regular reader is an asshole. Just saying. Anyway, I've missed quite a bit of stuff, so here we go.
Anime/Manga/Games
Ok, well, I don't have my shit set up for downloading streams and shit, but hey, a link is just as good. GONZO's animation for the Bandai gaming thingy, Duelpod, is online. You can hit the stream over here, if you care.
Secondly, the yaoi fan manga, Mousou Shoujo Otaku Kei is getting a live action series. It's due out this fall.
Also, proving that there is no bastion for the people WHO ARE SANE, Moetan episode six was banned from broadcast in Japan. It'll appear on the DVDs, but hey, Japan's headed for that terrible place where they just ban shit like in ENGLAND. You know, that wonderfully forward thinking country, where you can ban things. Bah, I'm too tired to bitch about it presently.
Remember that sexy Halloween Girl resin kit from a ways back? Well, she's getting a PVC and that makes us all winners! She's out in October for 7,980 yen.
Also, Yamashita Shunya's latest figure is up for preorder. It's a quality piece. I'd totally hit it. Like, in the butt. It's out in October for 6,090 yen.
Well kids, I'm done for now. Yessir! Imma go do some other stuff. Apologies for the quick rollup after not posting, but damnit, I'm trying to enjoy a bit of time off here. Haha. I'll be updating though. Gotta get my Gentoo install fit for updating. BloGTK when all faggy on me. See you chaps tomorrow then, ehwot?
You know, I have this reader from New Zealand who doesn't like me. He says he's "meh" about me. That hurts my heart and simultaneously makes clear to me that he's pissed that we got the Flight of the Conchords TV series and they didn't. I still love you, my Kiwi friend. Anyway, since both of these figures are part of the same beast, I'm lumping these two gorgeous figures together into one post. First up, I think it's the loli you've all been waiting for. FREEing has slapped up their Kyon no Imouto 1/4 scale figure. Man, FREEing nailed the important details here. The fit of the bunny outfit, the lack of stockings. Everything fits properly. There are truly some loli specialists at FREEing, I must say. She's out in October for 8,800 yen.
And there's no (official) pictures of him, but apparently MaxFactory is putting together an Emiya Kitsurugu figure for January. If you follow Moeyo, you probably saw him a few weeks back. He seriously looks really badass. And he'll go hella nice with Saber/zero. Now I'm considering ordering her. Oh man, what should I do?! WHAT SHOULD I DO?! Save money… but that's no fun.
Hit the jump for some shots of Kyon no Imouto in all her gigantic glory.
Howdy doo, reader buddies. Sorry for the lack of an update yesterday. I was hella busy. Even this morning I had many things to do. As I promised to you guys, contest prizes have been mailed out. And it fucking cost me my left nugget to do it. Ashley, the co-winner of the figure contest got BUBBA's Haruhi bunny girl, and the two anime runners-up got a Maritan book. Isn't that nice of me? On with the rollup!
Anime/Manga/Games
Puchi Eva, super deformed Eva people… like those figures from a few days back, is getting an anime. DOES THIS COUNT AS A NEW SHOW?!?! Sure, whatever.
Looks like ToHeart2's anime adventures aren't quite over. AquaPlus says there will be a new OVA for the series call ToHeart2 ad. but they didn't tell us it'd be out in a week, which makes it lame.
Ookami to Koshinryo is getting an anime, according to the little paper wrappy jiggy on the fifth volume. Man, I love those things. Obi, they call them. Isn't that cute?
Trailer: What's that you say? You haven't had enough of Aquarion and the movie is too long in coming? Well, I guess I can help out there. The official site now has a streaming trailer to… you know… enjoy. Hit the link and click "movie" and you're there.
Trailer: I guess it's good that we should put up another Appleseed trailer, too. It's also streaming flash, so no DM on that one.
Minami-ke's website is online (I swear that's old news…) and the show hits the airwaves in October.
Hmm, I need a little… bovine in my figure collection. You guys know what I mean. I mean that TSUKASA BULLET's second figure, Holstein Hanako, needs to be on your shelf, making you think dirty thoughts about the holiest animal in India. But maybe you're still thinking… How Now Brown Cow? Well, HobbyStock has the exclusive on how, exactly, now. Both will be out in November for 5,250 yen each.
Well… that got me all hot. (Ewww.) I guess I will cool down with a glass of milk and some Tales of Phantasia trading figures (Apparently, a re-release?) from Kotobukiya. They're out… November for 6,300 yen.
Lastly, from Kaze no Stigma, Atelier Sai has some… some chick. I'm not looking it up, not for this middling figure. She looks ok, though. She's out in October for 6,300 yen.
And that's all which show did write, peoples. Contest winners, if you'd be kind enough to post up when you get your prizes, I'd thank you muchly. And now it's back to the grind for this man. FOR THIS SAD, SAD MAN! Someone cheer my up by buying me this phone I want. I sold my WinMo to get it, but I am going to end up spending that on bills. COME ON! LOAN ME SOME MONEY! Why does everyone get all stuffy when a guy is in need?! EH?!
Well, the anime adaptation of the wonderful sci-fi yuri manga Blue Drop finally has some fruits for us to scrutinize. The show, to be called Blue Drop ~Tenshi-tachi no Gikyoku~ (which comes roughly to The Drama of the Angels), is looking pretty good in goo's screenshots. I'm not remembering the manga's aesthetic being like this, but I don't know that such a thing means the anime won't turn out well. Hell, I like Blue Drop, so hopefully it does well being turned across and they don't over commercialize the product by playing up the girl-love or over-doing the action. I WANT IT DONE RIGHT, PEOPLE!
Prize winners from the way old contest: Your shit is packed up and ready to be mailed off, I just haven't had a chance to run to the post office. No worries. Gonna try to get there tomorrow, if not should be able to next week. YOU WILL GET PRIZES, I SWEAR! Still swamped at work. Pity me.
I don't remember what Kyou Kara Maoh! is, but word on DA SKREETZ be dat it be… is that the show will be getting a new OVA series to be titled Kyou Kara Maoh! R. Pardon me for bothering, but I think it'd be better romanized as maou, but I could be wrong. Like how Ohno is properly Oono and not Ouno. It's confusing. Anyway, the first disc hits shelves on October 26th. Please to enjoying.
I wasn't planning on coming back around tonight to do more posts, but fuck it. I go a hold of some pictures of Kotobukiya's Pani Poni Dash! trading figure set. It's a 10 piece 1BOX with 8 unique figs and 1 secret figure, apparently. That's all well and good, but let's get the fuck to the pictures, ehwot?! Sadly, they're a big underwhelming looking. They're out in December for 6,800 yen
Hit the jump for like… six pictures or something. Enjoy! They're resized to fit the site better. Click for full size ones.
Well, Koto Just dropped four, Max has one up for preorder… lots of shit. So let's condense them into one super post! All pictures will be up after the jump. First up and most importantly, Max Factory's Saber/zero figure is up for preorder now. WOO! Saber! WOO! Suit! Woo! Sexy! She's out in December for 5,000 yen. I am still holding out for Alter's sexy ladies in a few weeks here. That's going to be tough to get. I might turn to this one if I can't get the Alter pair.
Ok, let's run through Koto's decent offerings real quick here. First up is Yoshioka Chie from… Yocchi?(Fix: Apparently, she's from ToHeart2: Heartful Days) That's what I read it is. I likely didn't read it very well though. Haha. Anyway, she's school girly. Yeah. Might be good for people who like green? She's out in November for 4,725 yen. 190mm.
Next up is Xecty from Shining Wind. We all love Shining Wind don't we? Especially with them freaky elf bitches. YOU KNOW WE LOVE DEM FREAKY ELF BITCHES! Ahem… pardon. But Xecty is looking very sexy in a way I haven't seen in any RECENT figures. Might be good to add for those serious but sexy lovers out there. She's out in November as well for 6,090 yen. 220mm tall.
But the fun for game lovers doesn't end there! We've got the announcement of some actually decent looking Disgaea trading figures. Crazy I know, but Koto seems to have put together some nice looking ones here. I'm not too pleased with the random bases there. SHOW ME RELIABLE FINAL PRODUCT COMPARISONS! This 12 piece 1BOX is out in November for 7,560 yen.
Disgaea not doing it for you? Fine, fine. Then consider these Moetan figures. My sadness here comes from the fact that Ink is the only person present in the 10 piece 1BOX, but that's fine, I guess. They still look pretty good. In this shot. Plus, MOETAN! OMGOMGOMG! There's a better set available currently. I'd look for that if I were you. November for 6,825 yen.
Hit the jump for shots of everything. Except the eroero figures. Yeah, I know. I suck. The pictures of censored even. One day I'll figure out something for that adult content… maybe.
