41 Comments Konata's Fanart

Please watch Lucky Star episode 8 before reading this entry. Remember how Konata was being so proud of the fact that her fanart submission was published in Newtype? Well I browsed through the latest issue in Kinokuniya today and indeed it was there! I took a picture of it secretly with my compact digital camera when [...]

Missed your chance at preordering Max Factory's awesomeness reincarnated 1/8 Haruhi? (BTW I preordered two of them.) Here's something that's almost as good! Okay maybe not, but every little bit helps, right? :P

6 Comments Mahou Sensei Negima! Vol.15 Limited Edition

I happened to be near Kinokuniya yesterday when I received a call from the Japanese book counter telling me that my Negima! Vol.15 was ready for collection. The limited edition is waaaay overpriced but I bought it anyway because I am a tool of the system. It comes with a DVD that contains promotional material for [...]

15 Comments Guide to Kinokuniya in Singapore

Honey & Clover Vol. 8 rocked!!! (Okay, so I’m almost a year late…) For no particular reason, I shall talk about Kinokuniya in Singapore today. Bear with me here… Note: This image has nothing to do with Kinokuniya As you probably know, Kinokuniya is a Japanese bookstore chain. The main branch is in Shinjuku in Tokyo. Here’s picture [...]

Japan: Day Four – Ikebukuro & Shinjuku

8 Comments Japan: Day Four - Ikebukuro & Shinjuku

Wandered around East Ikebukuro in the morning and Shinjuku in the afternoon today. Finally got to visit the Kinokuniya main branch. Although our hotel is located in Ikebukuro, it is on the opposite side of the train station from the major concentration of anime-related shops, so we didn’t take the time to visit there until now. [...]

Censored

6 Comments Censored

Kinokuniya just called today to inform me that they are unable to bring in my order for School Days Sekai-hen because it failed to get pass the Singapore Censorship Board. Considering the number of actual pornographic Japanese novels on display at Kinokuniya, I am absolutely baffled by how the Censorship Board functions. Seriously, School Days [...]

Kannadzuki no Miko Vol.2

November 3rd, 2005
3 Comments Kannadzuki no Miko Vol.2

I dropped by Kinokuniya to pick up this order today. This is the second, and also the concluding, volume of Kannadzuki no Miko, with 100% more yuri than the anime its based on. The second part of the story has been drastically altered, perhaps even more than the first volume. Chikane’s motivation is shown more explicitly [...]
