Chapter 18 is here!

No time for transitions here since I’m running back and forth making copies at work! I just used an old image dug up from the pits of my folder at work so bear with me. This chapter is just half mush and half drama. It deals mostly with Chiwa’s new workplace and the fact that she now has to work with an old flame from the past who also loves giving her a hard time. I guess their friendship didn’t end well since she claims that in college they got along really well. Ohooho and just for a teaser, both Hokuto and Chiwa have a nice little scene in the shower. I didn’t think Hokuto was up to do the deed at the start of the scene, but in the end they do it. I’m sure that relieved Chiwa of all her stresses at work. And the last shot shows Chiwa finally happy at her new job. Next issue is out September 8th!

Max Factory posted previews of the Asuka figma and 1/7 Tainaka Ritsu PVC. Both are set for a December 2010 release.

Chapter 17 is finally here! Click the picture!

Hmm, it’s not what I expected out of a couple who just recently screwed for the first time. Both Chiwa and Hokuto are much closer now however there’s a bit of a misunderstanding AGAIN that leads to Chiwa running out of the house crying. There’s more sexy tiem now but just to let you know, THEY WERE COCKBLOCKED AGAIN. I didn’t have enough time to finish the chapter, but I’ll update as soon as I get home.

I spent the past 3 days playing both Para-sol and Umineko Ep 6 at the same time, and frankly, Umineko was a little more enjoyable.  There wasn’t much to this trial and the characters were NOTHING how they were described. Most of the CGs are the ones that have been shown on the site (excluding the hentai ones) and the ones used in TECH GIAN. However the character sprites are incredible (however I think the budget stopped at the hands).

The story is pretty confusing to follow because it goes back and forth between the Para-sol world and the actual world and the discussion of the Shamlock and M.E companies only further complicate the storyline. The only interesting part was the very last section, which talks about the companies building robots and the idea of robots replacing human beings. Other than that,there’s running werewolf monsters. Not like the ones in Twatlight but actual wolf monsters caused by some Para-sol cell.

The trial is up online and I took some screencaps which you can find here. If anyone wants, I can put up everything that I have without any watermarks.

Loot from the last 2 days. Meh not that much unfortunately.

I can’t believe it’s all over already! From 2007 to 2010, I have to say 2010 was probably the best. All the special guests were spectacular to meet and the cosplayers were gorgeous (with a few exceptions of course). Not a lot of freebies this year because panels were shifted and didn’t give away much. I went to the DRRR!, Hetalia, and Air Gear meetups but there wasn’t much to do so I took some pictures and ran away. But the Air Gear meetup was hilarious because some girl cosplayed as Ringo in her ribbon string outfit and EVERYTHING was exposed. She cosplayed really well but she was posing and stepping on another cosplayer and it just looked like a scene from a porno. I met Danny Choo at the ESPN Zone and shook hands, took pictures, and gazed at his daughters. Some people who passed by put their Dollfies next to Danny’s Dollfies and just put them in a ton of positions.

Loot for both days. I needs moar

This post won’t be very long because I’m exhausted and I’m running low on sleep. ｡ﾟ(ﾟ´Д｀ﾟ)ﾟ｡ Since I quit Gaia ages ago, the first two commenters can have these promotional Gaia codes that give some exclusive prize as well as 2,500 gold. Anime Expo 2010 has been really fun so far. There’s a lot more events going on however my main complaint is that the Dealer’s Hall and the Artist Alley is still in the same hall. I haven’t bought much because most of my commissions have taken up the bulk of my money. Deals are non-existent in the dealer’s hall because all the prices are the same as if the books/figurines were in the stores itself. ( ಠ益ಠ)  What pissed me off the most was that

ryo0oki and Amuria (IS IT SHINY ENOUGH) had about 4 booths in the Dealer’s hall and it was just a giant wall of their “shiny” art. If people aren’t going to buy from just one of your booths, why the hell would you put 4?! There’s barely enough space to walk yet you set up 4 of your booths with walls of prints?! (`ヘ´)凸  Continue reading

Here’s a preview for this Summer’s courtesy of Chartfag. See anything that catches you eye?

I also wanna take a moment and announce that I’ll be taking a brief hiatus for the month of July. I’ll be away on a vacation with the fam in Singapore and Indonesia. Don’t worry, I promise to bring back pictures of the otaku happenings over there.

In the meantime, you’ve got Umi’s AX report to look forward too… so I think that will be fun.

Happy summer~
