This episode is a pretty good one because we are finally seeing some semblance of actual combat tactics being employed. Also, it has some character development for Felt, which is good. (But maybe not. Refer to the last line of this entry.) It’s a Haro harem! Louise and Saji do make an appearance in this [...]
Nendroid is a PVC figurine series from Good Smile Company that turns popular anime characters into awesome chibified caricatures with oversized heads. VOCALOID2′s Hatsune Miku recently received the Nendroid treatment and topped the Amazon preorders chart with over 10,000 preorders in just two days. Mika-tan, an employee of GSC, posted some new “product testing” pictures [...]
Here’s your daily dosage of “WTF everything I hold to be true and dear in this reality has been torn apart and disintegrated.” Angel’s Tale from StudioGU is a bishoujo game made in Thailand. Yes, the one in Southeast Asia. Uh, I don’t know about you guys, but I don’t exactly associate Thailand with bishoujo [...]
If you are reading this, that means the new DNS has propagated for you. I had to manually edit my HOSTS file to access this site. Stupid ISP and its stupid slow-updating cache. This site is now hosted by HostGator for no particular reason. Some administrative matters to take care of: I tried to ensure [...]
Eh. I think this is the kind of episode that most people would enjoy. It has some fighting (lame), character development (lame) and plot development (what plot?), all the jazz that people claim to watch Gundam for. But I didn’t really like it. It’s boring and doesn’t really invoke any feelings. I almost fell asleep [...]
Woohoo! It’s that new layout that I was talking about! Yay! It took less time than I anticipated to finish it. WordPress is really quite a decent CMS. It’s my first attempt at building my own WordPress theme instead of modifying the default one. There are still a lot of things that are incomplete (mainly [...]
Yet another boring episode. I think someone should ban Sunrise from making any “character development” episodes because frankly I don’t give a damn about the Gundam Meisters. In fact, let’s just turn all the Gundams into unmanned weapon systems that are controlled by Veda through mesh networking!
This year’s end-of-year cosplay event was once again held at the Singapore Expo. I dropped by for a bit to take some photos. Pictured above is the best cosplay of the whole event, according to me. Rei does exist in real-life.
The official Haruhi.tv website has been replaced by a fake 404 error with five form input fields. After entering K, N, S, A, K and clicking the button, you will be presented with a console terminal running Yuki’s escape program.
Crypton, the creator of VOCALOID2 software Hatsune Miku and the upcoming Kagamine Rin/Ren, sent a cease-and-desist order to doujin circle CLOCK☆HEARTS. The circle was taking preorders on its website fan-made dakimakura covers of Miku and Rin. (Sort of NSFW: Hatsune Miku | Kagamine Rin) In response, the circle has taken down the pictures of the [...]
I will be in Tokyo from Dec 24th to Jan 2nd. This is my fourth trip to Japan and the main objective is of course the Winter Comiket (29th to 31st). Preparations for the trip is almost done; all that’s left is the packing. Look forward to some C73 coverage on this blog soon! I [...]
