Japan Summer 2008 Loot (Way Too Many!)

moe 9688 sample-1
Girlie not related to post but I found her cute anyway

And a quick look at our loot stolen exchanged in Japan with the a currency known as money for moe girlies on paper.

Didn’t spend a lot compared to the Spring and last year’s trip (Japan Loot & Akane makes Revolution) as I am enlisting into the army in another 2 weeks time and won’t be able to enjoy the moelicious girlies while serving. Didn’t bring a lot of money to Japan this time as well, and bought a couple of other stuff as well.

Most of the doujins are from the recent comiket (comiket 74) while I got the Konata Neodoroid as a free gift from some lovely friends of mine. Bought the Melissa Neodoroid from Akiba, and the health-approved mangas from K-books (If I recall).

Besides doujins and mangas, I got myself the sexy little wireless mac keyboard that runs on dolphin wax batteries and connects to my Macbook Pro via Bluetooth. Will do a review on it someday ^^;

And… heres how you know when you have too many doujins.

Picture above’s the whole collection of doujins and health-related mangas that I have collected during the past 3 trips to the land of the kawaii. Included is also a couple of artbooks as well.

Do you have too many doujins/manga/artbooks as well? Or is there no such thing as too many? ^^;

Makoto Shinkai

I have probably found my motivation.

Yes, he’s no other than Makoto Shinkai (新海誠, Shinkai Makoto)

Makoto Shinkai (新海誠 Shinkai Makoto?) (born February 9, 1973) is an Japanese anime director, animator, and principal voice actor. A native of the Nagano prefecture in Japan, he traces his passion for creation to the manga, anime, and novels he read while growing up in middle school. His favorite anime is Castle in the Sky by Hayao Miyazaki. Shinkai has been called the new Miyazaki in several reviews including Anime Advocates and ActiveAnime, though he disagrees with this comparison, stating that “it is an overestimation”.

‘Homemade’ Green tea ice cream!

 

I saw this over at the supermarket over at the Japanese food section the other day. I do know that you can bake cakes and stuff but making your own ice cream seems a little impossible without industrial machines. I was wrong, very wrong. I decided to grab one of these and test them out.

    I do not collect them, thankfully. Otherwise I would have no idea where to put them as well.

    holy shrikes… thats a lot!!!

    and how can you tell if the mangas from k-books are “health approved”??!?!

    Wow…. Thats really a lot i wantz T_____T But I only have 2 artbook doujins… Anyway if I had this many, I would probably find space in my house no matter what, in order to keep them. I also want H doujins, reading online is not as fun as having them in possession and of course, the doujins will be eyes only.

    You’re lucky to have T2 Deculture… I so want his doujinshis but I guess it’s safer to have a virtual copy. As for you question, there’s no such things when it comes to girls, moe and health care material.

  3. - lu-k

    There are never too many, when it comes to health care :)

    A closeup of the keyboard would be nice.

    That’s a nice, healthy collection of doujinshi you have thar.

    Loot on bed!

    Hey, I see an Ozawa Akifumi art book in that mix. Can you review that, or just mention whether it’s art work or game stills in the books?
