Fans of characters Tsuyuri and Sora from Doujin Works might be interested in getting the dakimakura-ized versions that will be released on February 29th 2008.
2 more news items in this post.
Word’s in that these original illustrations of 150cm x 50cm will be on sale at a very nice price of ¥10,500 per case only and will be available for pre-order via Hobby Search and other retailers. Manufacturer’s Matching World.
Is it me or has the prices of Dakimakuras increased by a bit? Now that it’s at a price of ¥10,000 or so, otakus are probably in a dilemna in choosing either to get an eroge or a dakimakura.
Still prefer the top pictures of them intentionally showing their naughty bits ^^;

Also, just launched recently is Japanese eroge review website, Eroge Review. Maintained by two writers, Nargrakhan and Ayyo, the site’s does english reviews of the Japanese eroges and has currently one review (Kissing!! under the mistletoe) under it’s wing at the moment.
Might want to check it out if again once it gets more reviews up over the coming year.

And in other news, my room’s currently getting it’s floor completely polished so for the next two days, will have to sleep in the living hall (NO ANIMU!) ORZ
As you can see, it’s pretty empty now, except for a portable table, laptop and my bed. These will be shifted out in the morning. The rough surfaces are the parts that needs more polishing. You can see how my room looks like before over at this post.
Found a CD that contained my first few “open sourced” eroges, Try to guess the name of the game on the screen. It runs on DOS :)

I just finished watching Honey & Clover II. It’s a great series, seriously. A anime that portrays the daily lifes of a group of art students. One could easily relate to the characters in the series, maturing and moving towards the light. Just like reality tv series (similar yet different), we often see others with similar characteristics.
The character development in Honey & Clover is expectionally good. Each character given sufficient air time to grow, cry and all that. Besides the emo stuff, there is also comical segments that were really well done and also when everyone comes together and pla. I do feel that I missed out some of these parts, desperately trying to search for it. Yet, sometimes we do look too far beyond, missing out the little details and joys that are right under our noses.
I do think I relate to Kaoru (Morita’s brother) very well. Unable to let go of the past and head to the light was one of the weaknesses I had. It was a eye-for-an-eye thing, in which I had sunk into so deeply, that there was only darkness surrounding me. It was only till then, that we realize the mistakes we carelessly made.
The live movie has been out in Japan for quite a few months. I hope it gets ported over here, or in the worse case, got to buy the DVD for it :/
Cynthia wrote an entry about the beautiful world she lives in, there a segment about me too!
[...] Jacob is a very nice guy that I think all girls should fall in love with. There were times when he sat near the door in the classroom, and when he sees people from our class approaching the door, be it from outside on inside, he’d open the door for them. Tell me. How gentleman is that? [...]
Thanks Cynthia.
But somehow, I think I’m playing a very dangerous game of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde.
自分の世界は,自分で変えなければ. Enjoy your stay and we hope to see you back!
Nice lappy there.Omg cute Dakimakuras. Anyways just recenltly added you to my blog. Add me back? =)
You can put the title as ☆.Daily Life.☆

The day I have to move everything out of my room, I’ll be amazed that I managed to squeeze so much in such a small space.
Man, I can’t ever properly clean my room because I have to share it with my brother. That and I have no space to move my stuff out anyway lol.
I’d take Tsuyuri anytime, by the way.
YOu made my day… nose bleed all the way…
Nice wooden floors… o how I want them so =
Wow sleeping in the living room must be kinda tough. I hope that you get back your anime viewing time and your bed soon.
@Choo: Thanks, have added you in ^^;
@Zeroblade: Can’t throw him out? Siding with Sora for this one ^o^
@Akiraman: Hope you don’t lose it all!
@Hijiko: NO U!
@double: Should be shifting in the beds and stuff tonight.
Tsuyuri = instant nosebleed.
And the eroge…is that True Love? (Random guess of the day).
OMG DAKIMAKURA!!! *NOSEBLEED*
Nosebleed. Nice Dakimakuras you got there.^^
Hope you don’t suffer anime withdrawal symptom.
On an unrelated topic. just added you to my blogroll, could you link back please, thanks. the name is Full Moe Panic!!!
There’s something wrong with those Dakimakura though… Sora should be smaller than Tsuyuri iirc
I have carpet in my place so I will have to soap and rinse everything instead of polish. That’s an old ero on your laptop? Do you use it for reference lol? Btw I notice that use a acer laptop, right on, thats what I’m using right now lol. I was wondering why it looked so familiar ^^.
if im not mistaken its Season of the Sakura, from way back in the day.
