MMM – Manga, Music & Mmmmmgames

Wednesday, January 27th, 2010

I’ve recently picked up a couple of games, Persona 4 (With OST) for the PS2 and Drømmefall – Den lengste reisen (In english: Dreamfall – The longest journey) for PC.
Sorry, no pictures right now. :/

A couple of weeks ago I went to Oslo, Why? Because one of my friends is an actor, so I was invited to go watch a play. It ended up being really great. :3
I also grabbed the chance to get the last two volumes of Genshiken (8 & 9)

Today I first picked up a couple of albums on a whim.
Alestorm – Black Sails at Midnight
Photobucket
Yeah I know, “True scottish pirate metal”, god damnit that’s awesome. :P

and also Masterplan with the album Masterplan.
Photobucket
Sorry for the blurry pictures, I blame the camera.

I got some stuff in the mail today.
Tamaoki Benkyo’s latest manga series, ねくろまねすく (Necromanesque. I dunno why it’s written like that, I figured it would be ねくろまねすくえ, but apparently there’s no ‘e’ (え) at the end in japanese.)
Photobucket

A touhou manga, Bohemian Archive in Japanese Red, with a CD.
Two pictures since the golden part doesnt work with the blitz, and the rest looks terrible without the blitz. :/

And here, have some heavily censored stuff. (Though, it is uncensorable by using gmask’s cpmask filter if you can guess the password.) One of the mangas is by Rate, and the other is by Oyster, which would explain a lot if you know who they are.
Photobucket
But wait, there’s a good reason for me buying “those” kind of mangas.
When I buy a certain amount of manga I get free shipping, so adding more manga is cheaper. (Until a certain point ofc)
But I only buy short series or one shots, and not everything is in stock at all times, so I had to get something.
Also, I felt like I had to own atleast one, just for the sake of owning one. :P

Anyho’
I didn’t make a christmas update, so one will be coming along shortly.

Jrock night\Soracon buying spree

Wednesday, June 24th, 2009

So yeah, revealing most of what I ordered
First of, touhou games :3
The official ones (which were in stock)
Touhou 7 – Perfect Cherry Blossom
Touhou 8 – Imperishable Night
Touhou 9 – Phantasmagoria of Flower View
Touhou 9.5 – Shoot the Bullet
Touhou 11 – Mountain of Faith
Photobucket

Too bad Embodiment of a Scarlet Devil weren’t in stock, it’s my favorite, and the first non-pc-98 touhou game.

And I got two Touhou spin-offs, Megamari (Like Megaman, just with a touhou theme\ characters\music, and まとめの音楽集その1 by “Moon Goddess”)
Photobucket
Photobucket
Kinda dark picture, but what is haruhi characters doing on the cover…
And why does this page list it as a book?

http://doujinshi.mugimugi.org/book/145552/

It sure as hell doesn’t look like one, atleast mine does look an awful lot like a CD. >_>

Then there’s just one spin-off to go, it’s on its way, more on that when I get it.
Whatever, moving on…

A new headset, yes, I have one from Koss and one pair of Steelseries, but I wanted some smaller ones, I figured I should get some which are a little bit “exotic” or atleast unusual in comparison to what people around here usually have.
So I decided on XCalgo, some japanese brand, I noticed them over at akibaharanews some time ago and they looked pretty cool.
Here’s a GIF

Hmmmmmmmm…………

:)

I also got some manga, I don’t like to buy long series, I will make exceptions though, for series I really like, like Kare Kano and Urutsei Yatsura :3

First of we have:
Tenchi Muyo: Sasami Stories
It’s just a one shot, and it was cheap, so I thought “why not?”
Photobucket

Next one:
Kare Kano
Photobucket
I thought there were just like 1 book, but apparently there’s 21 volumes (IIRC)
I love mangas like this and Lovely Complex, I don’t know why, but these are now both amongst my all-time favorites.
At about 600 pages, this is huge.
Comparison shot:
Photobucket

Last but not least, another random buy. (I influenced Nekoflaa to buy it too :P )
Mao-Chan (By Ran and Ken Akamatsu (Of Love Hina fame, one of the characters even bears a striking resemblance to Narusegawa from Love Hina))
Wikipedia says 4 volumes, but my version is just two slightly larger volumes. (There seems to be somewhere in between 100 and 200 extra pages with info and a side-story)
Photobucket

Comparison shot again.
Photobucket
It was so cheap, couldn’t not buy it. :P

And I needed a new bookmark, so yeah.
Photobucket
Photobucket

And I got some YoruichiXSoifon fanart. :3
Photobucket
That means I didn’t draw it.
I actually haven’t drawn anything in quite a while, still, a bunch of girls requested that I’d join Deviantart, which I now consider doing.

So yeah, I think this be it. :3

SundaySoraconSummer

Tuesday, June 23rd, 2009

Photobucket
:) and also, roar rawr

I and Okami woke up early, ate breakfast on Deli and tried to reach “kongress senteret” before 9, we got there a few minutes late, but didn’t really matter.

Me and a few other people went to get two tv’s at havok’s house.
When we were back and I had properly arranged the chillout spot Jintox still weren’t there.
He came a little bit after the opening show were over. (it was just for the 100 first people to get tickets and crew.

Nekoflaa wrote ⑨ on my cheek

I really liked the AMV they had this time, not that I didn’t like the ones they’ve had before, I just really loved this one, the song and everything. I’ll find out which AMV it was and make a post about it.
Then they showed the three Soracon trailers and talked a little bit about what was gonna happen.
That’s about it, not as big as the Desucon opening show, but still good.

People played a bunch of Super Mario World.
(And Kenneth’s (@neo-tokyo) kid were suprisingly good, especially considering they don’t have a SNES\Super Famicom at home.
I asked him (Kenneth) about it and he just told me it runs in the family. :P

Over to the cosplay competition, I kinda missed it :(
Though I know this happened:
pedobear
Beyond awesome, but since it was on a huge stage in the middle of one of oslo’s largest marketplaces (? I’m not that familiar with oslo, but I think it is) It migh’ve been a daring move, if it goes in some newspapers or something it would’ve been blown up like hell.
Mainly because of incompetence and unfamiliarity with the subject.
But yeah, that would’ve needed more than a little bit of explaining I think.
(oh, and they did it twice)
So what have we learned?
Never send someone cosplaying Pedobear (Even though it’s a girl) and a little girl (unprotected) out on the same stage.

And we had jack sparrow (Which really looked and played like he was the real deal, pretty amazing stuff. And a guy wrapped in two plastic bags, bordering on scary. :P )
I got some more stuff, like fanart. (YoruichiXSoiFon hehehe :3)
More on that in the third post coming up, Tomorrow, since I’m starting to get tired.

So we got home at about 24:00 I think, mostly because we got told to take train number 19 while we really should take number 17, so we ended up taking a later one.

Stuff

Wednesday, June 10th, 2009

Yeah, I ordered some stuff, I’ll reveal what later this month.

It still bothers me that a game I were going to order is out of stock, Touhou Reitaiki.

I mean, holy shit, look at that cover, it is the most awesome cover for any game, ever.
