Photos of the X-mas Loot!

Journal Entry: Sat Dec 26, 2009, 3:14 PM
Usada






Alright! Now that I've re-found my motivation, here are a few of the pictures I took today after arranging my room around in a way that would fit all of the newcomers. XD

So many journal entries this week. This must be a record for me~ And probably sparked by my love of Christmas (as well as my guilt for not posting a Christmas picture).

Usada

A picture of my desk, where I happen to be typing this out. XD The paper in front of my keyboard is the next page of me and ~Darkpsycho1000's doujinshi that I'll be posting tonight after I clean it up on the comp and add shading/etc. Next to my keyboard is, of course, Tales of VS. Which I hope I'll get to play soon \o/

If you're wondering about the image on the computer screen, that's a secret for now ;D

Usada

Here's my miniature Vocaloid army! Including Miku, Rin, Len, Luka, KAITO, MEIKO, another version of Meiko, Saihate Miku, Hachune Miku, and the fan-made Vocaloids Neru and Haku (NOT pictured in the order listed XD ).

Behind them is Ciel from Kuroshitsuji, dressed in his "Robin" disguise to lure Jack the Ripper (so for those who haven't seen the anime, that is a boy. Oh, and watch Kuroshitsuji!)

Usada

Next up are my new Nendoroids! I already had Saber Lion, Melissa Seraphy, and Len. The newcomers from Christmas are Hatsune Miku, Kagamine Rin (Len's sister/mirror image), and Kureha from Shining Wind. Just to give you a size comparison, I shot the photo with the Miku from my Nendoroid Puchi set. XD Quite the difference!

Usada

Just for another comparison, this is Nendoroid Puchi Miku next to my PPP Abyss figures. Seeing as this Petit Nendoroid is nearly twice as big, you can just imagine how HUGE the real nendoroids are. XD Well... huge for SD figures, anyhow.

And speaking of Abyss, I really need to arrange my room in a way that all my Abyss figures and merchandise are in the same place. My Kotobukiya figures are on my vanity right now with a few other things, separated from the PPP and large Natalia PVC.

Usada

To conclude this section of my room, here's a picture of both shelves containing most of my new goodies~ I still need to organize more, so I apologize if it seems messy.

Usada

Continuing on with the Nendoroids, this is a Nendoroid Playset of a Japanese style room. XDD Aside from the fact that this alone is hilarious and fun to display, it's made for nendos and perfect for their size. Oh, and I already owned the right half. My brother gave me the left side for Christmas.

Usada

Again, these are Nendoroid Puchi (Petit Nendos), so this house is somewhat large for them, but it still works for photos anyhow! The set also came with extra hands for normal size Nendoroids to hold the dango, tea set, or the sword displayed on the shelf in the back (yes, a tiny sword really comes out of the sheath!).

Usada

For those who have seen photos of my room before, can you guess what new item has been added to this section of Sailor Jupiter merchandise?

Usada

And now, for my one of my favorite sections, the DOUJINSHI! \o/ I received three new Abyss ones this year and placed some at the top of the piles. Also included in the picture are ToA graphic novels in Japanese, and a few issues of Tales of Magazine~

Also pictured is another present my dear brother gave me, Dragon Age for the PS3. <3 I'll get to this after I finish Trusty Bell/Eternal Sonata.

Usada

Finally, here's my kitty after she buried herself in my covers. |D <3 Isn't she a sweetie? She's not my Christmas present as I've had her for 15 years. She's my everyday gift. ;D



To conclude with a final statement, I'd like to say.... There needs to be Tales of the Abyss nendoroids, darn it! D|

Oh *cough* I mean I had an awesome Christmas and I hope you guys did too! I'm really thankful I could spend so much time with my family this week, and I'm looking forward to our trip on Monday to celebrate my graduation~

Christmas Goodies~

Journal Entry: Fri Dec 25, 2009, 5:54 PM

Today was sort of a tiring day, so I have yet to take any actual pictures of my presents, but I will try to get to that tomorrow! I know from my previous journal that a lot of you had wonderful Christmases, and if you still haven't told me what you received, feel free to do so now!

In the meantime, here are some official photos of a few of the presents I received from my family. XD;

Usada
Vocaloid Nendoroid Puchi set! Includes 10 figures and 1 secret. I also have a duplicate of Saihate Miku

Usada
FFF, I didn't mean for this picture to turn out so small. XD But I think most of you will know what it is. <3 I don't own a PSP, but my brother has so graciously offered to lend me his (after he's done playing his new games).

Usada
Kureha nendoroid from Shining Wind! This figure was what made me fall in love with nendoroids. <3 I can't get over how sweet she is and I'm glad to finally have her.

Usada
I had to get Rin or my Len nendo would be lonely. TT Miku is also here and Luka is on the way in January.

Usada
Last, but certainly not least, is Ciel Robin from Kuroshitsuji in Pullip Dal form. This is very special to me because my sister saved up just to get it for me. ; ; <3




I realize I sound rather pathetic for saying this, but I really wish I could write up a list here of presents I exchanged with my friends. Oh wait, I don't have any. Not within a few hundred miles or so anyhow. It really sucks being out in such a small town sometimes. I feel so secluded from anyone I could call a friend, especially around Christmas time or birthdays (whether mine or theirs).

Don't get me wrong though, I'm grateful for my family every day. And while I have no friends outside my family, I'm so glad my sister is here with me or I'd be utterly lonely. orz

Christmas Eve!

Santa-kun will be visiting our houses in just a few hours *coughcoughchoke*, so I was wondering....


What are you hoping to find most under the tree tomorrow morning?

Or, for those of you who live across the globe and Christmas has already graced your house, wanna share any of your gifts!?

Same question to any of you who celebrate a different holiday ;D

I LOVE Christmas. And since I don't have the opportunity to speak to most of my friends or internet acquaintances (feel free to group yourself in either category XD ), I wanted to hear a little bit about your Christmas! So share away~

Also, giving gifts is even more enjoyable than receiving them. So if you'd rather share what you surprised someone else with. Go for it!

For example, I'm quite excited for my sister to open her... Oh wait, she might see this post, I can't say that! D: *ahem* Okay, for my brother to open his Disgaea 2 PSP game!


Merry Christmas Eve guys!


Also, have this hilariously cute video of a bank:

Wish I could post it in the journal... Or just post links without those darn smileys popping up = =; Any way around that?

Real Tear Nendoroid!?

Journal Entry: Mon Dec 14, 2009, 2:31 PM

This news was brought to me by ~MangaNovice earlier today, but when I went to Mikatan's blog to confirm this, it was down. I was, of course, INCREDIBLY excited, thinking this was a real nendoroid adaptation of a Tales of the Abyss character, but.....

I do not think this is real. Not only does she look hand-crafted, but as I read through the article posted here: [link] nothing about this figure was actually being announced. It seems that Mikatan was sick, and in an effort to cheer her up/make her feel better, people were (can't quite fully read it) either taking pictures of nendoroids they had hand-made and sending them to her, or bringing them to her. She is thanking "everyone" below the captured image of Tear and Miku, saying that it made her want to cry (from happiness), and "sorry" for making everyone worry.

So sorry guys, it looks like GSC tricked me just as I tricked some of you with Asch. *punishment received* orz


And if you don't know who Mikatan is, she posts in her very famous blog through the Good Smile Company. She typically takes photos of about-to-be-released items, teasers for not-yet-announced merchandise, reviews, etc. So while the fact that Tear popped up on her blog was VERY promising, it turns out she was fan made and not an official figure. :'( A very sad day for us Tales fans indeed.

Updates + Anime Openings

Journal Entry: Sat Dec 12, 2009, 5:12 PM

At this moment, I'm making the finishing touches to ~Darkpsycho1000 and I's latest comic page before starting on my next commission. If you guys are wondering why I haven't posted the link to the comic yet... well... I basically just wanted to wait until there was MORE to look at. XD It's still at the very beginning, and there aren't too many pages uploaded yet.

I might post the starting page later next week with the link. And hopefully, by that time, I'll have another new page up. - -b

And onto the next topic...
Oh right, so anime! I'm a big anime and game fan, so I'm always watching or playing something new and wanted to share with you guys. Last time, I posted Vocaloid videos, and it was very interesting listening to everyone's favorite tunes and sharing our love of the digital divas!

The following openings are my favorites from the anime I've watched over the past year or two.


Umineko no Naku Koro ni: [link]
An anime I'm still watching as it comes out in Japan every week. I love the opening for its suspenseful and almost eerie touch.

Toradora: [link]
A fun opening to a different sort of school romance anime. XD I really like this show, and I hope it's licensed in the US soon so that I can watch it with my sister.

Kuroshitsuji: [link]
Well I couldn't find it, but ~mieulinhtu managed to! Thanks~

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni: [link]
As you might've guessed, this series is related to "Umineko" up top. Overall, this series is way better than Umineko, but Umineko has the better opening song. XD

Shugo Chara opening 2: [link]
Another oddly hard to find video. Couldn't even nab it from youtube, lol. But uh yeah... IkutoxAmu FTW!!

Princess Tutu: [link]
A sweet opening to a tragic but cute series. ; ; And I love the mix of classical music at the end. <3

Rozen Maiden Traumend: [link]
The best opening of the two, imho. I could watch it over and over~

Code Geass R2 Opening 2: [link]
Even if I like series one better than R2, this was by far my favorite opening for Code Geass

Tales of the Abyss: [link]
Didn't think I'd forget this one, did ya? ;D I actually like the game opening better than the anime, but either way I love the song, so I had to put it~ (And I couldn't find this opening either, so enjoy the split screen action!)


I know I'm forgetting a good one somewhere there, but ah well. XD That's some of what I've watched lately. If there's an anime opening you adore, feel free to share!
