If only she was a bit bigger...

Permalink

...it would've been perfect. But still great job by Koto!

So cuuuuute!

Permalink

A bunch of Umarus <3 <3 <3

I have quite a few ideas...

Permalink

Ah, perfect for some romantic scene -- now who should I pair with who..

Love the view...

Permalink

...still don't have any nendos to display with it though lol

Can't go wrong with Hallways

Permalink

Classic setting for anime scenes :D

For some reason...

Permalink

Reminds of of Aincrad so I'll probably prop up my Kirito and Asuna/Yui Nendos here ;)

Ready for camping!

Permalink

Bought four of these! lmao. Wish there's a mountain view in the distance though

Albedo, gorgeous as always!

Permalink

You can never go wrong with an Albedo figure, she's just that beautiful lol but Furyu's QC needs some serious work still. Her white dress and gloves aren't as pure white as I would've liked -- had patches of slight grey transfer. Even her chest area has some paint transfer going on in there.
I think her breasts are a tad bit large XD and painting could've done more polishing imo, especially on Albedo herself but I love what they did to her wings! They had a sort of bluish-black tinged to it ;)
Now if only Alter will join too, you can never have enough of AlBAEdo

That expression is priceless :3

Permalink

It takes a certain amount of sass to like this series much like Jabami -- Koto is known for its affordable figures. You'll get your money's worth ;)

YunYun is a ball of fluff :3

Permalink

Love her character and that crying, flustered face is just too precious.

It's gotta be Yui

Permalink

We are definitely short on Yui figures so even if she's this tiny imma take it! XD

No hate for SAO here.

Permalink

I really don't understand all the hate for SAO, I mean there are a lot, LOT worse out there. I guess it's just man's need to hate on something -_-
Anyway, I'm not really a fan of their Ordinal Scale outfits but it's a must to get the Kirito x Asuna couple. Quality os great as always.

My nendo collection is growing...

Permalink

And I'm not even aware of it XD
If there's a nendo you need, this is it. Umaru is just perfect as is (I wish she has also has scales though) and partnered with Ebina ;) Here's to hoping they do the whole cast.

Goofy expressions :3

Permalink

These expressions are gold and worth every penny.

Pretty to look at

Permalink

Really only bought it to avail of a coupon and not really a Sakura fan but the images are pretty. Might be a good gift idea for someone who IS a fan ;)

Goth-loli Goddess-to be

Permalink

As expected from Kotobukiya, it's a simple enough figure but captures Rory perfectly. The pose is on point too. I just wish they don't do the exclusive faces since I missed out on the high tension face part

Bashful is moe~

Permalink

Our favorite from Akita is finally here! She comes in this smaller nendo boxes that's more common nowadays but the extras are still worth it ;)

For the sake of sets!

Permalink

Utaha's my best girl so getting Kato was just for completing the set lol. I'm also not that fond of her face here

Accurate figure of Rem ;)

Permalink

I'm used to Alter getting most if not all of the details in their figures but GSC did a great job with Rem here. Not to mention the Oni version is bad-ass ^^

Holy guacamoli!

Permalink

Her box is huge (though not the biggest I've seen)! Anyway, barring the price-tag this Rory is gorgeous. The detail on her scythe is magnifique ;)

Evil loli is the where it's at!

Permalink

Tanya is arguably one of my top 10 if not 5 characters of all time (male/female), and this nendo hits all the spot especially with her expressions ;) Definitely worth it!

So cuuuute~

Permalink

Kotori isn't really my favorite girl in Love Live (mainly because of her super high voice) however Alter didn't disappoint with her figure. Details are elaborate and it's a pretty accurate rendition of the character. Worth the buy especially if you're completing the set!

Beautiful finale figure for this gorgeous K-On set!

Permalink

Undoubtedly the most gorgeous K-On set to grace our display cabinets -- and Yui completes it (finally after 2 years since Azu-nyan came out ) =u=

Mofu Neko-dango
Mofu Neko-dango$5.99

Pretty neat!

Permalink

Nice little squishy felines ;)

Beautiful figure!

Permalink

The most beautiful Saekano set imo! Loving the palette, sculpt and shading <3

Sonomanma Peach Gum
Sonomanma Peach Gum$0.99 - $7.92

Decent. Too sour for me (also leaves an aftertaste)

Permalink

I think this would depend on people's preferences, for me it was too sour :P While chewing I had the constant urge to just swallow it but refrained because it's gum. As the majority of candies here it leaves a slightly bitter aftertaste. Also almost a dollar for this is pricey imo ;)

Choco Chips Mini
Choco Chips Mini$1.99 - $15.92

Like Chips Ahoy but less sugar haha

Permalink

As the name implies -- it's choco chips, not too sweet and I prefer that too. It does leave this slight aftertaste though, but not a deal breaker.

Crunky Popjoy
Crunky Popjoy$1.99 - $15.92

Maybe I should've put it in the fridge first... :P

Permalink

Nice, a bit sweet for my taste. I ate this without putting it in the fridge so the chocolate was soft and didn't feel that 'crunchy'. I think it would be better if it's eaten cold ;)

Kissmint: Juicy Pineapple Gum
Kissmint: Juicy Pineapple Gum$1.79 - $14.32

Pretty decent, if not a bit pricey.

Permalink

What you can expect from a pineapple gum though I have to remove stars because it leaves this slightly bitter after taste. And I still think a dollar for this is a bit pricey :)

Best figure for the #BestGirl

Permalink

I don't know how they'll top this Jibril figure... maybe a pose where she's spreading her wings and readying her destructive magic upon hapless Elves (much like Altera's pose but with both hands straight up) lol
The base is quite big but imo it's just right since she has a lot of knick knacks around her, she needs the space ;)

Definitely my favorite K-On set!

Permalink

This set is just gorgeous! Quality is great! And our resident bassist here is so adorable, just the right amount of her usual shyness haha. Though I lament that TOM has them location restricted ><

Nice design!

Permalink

Bought this mainly as the design caught my eye and I wanted to try getting a shirt online to test the sizes (I got an M, which ran a bit long but other than that I estimated right) ;)
I also thought it would feel more 'cottony' but imo it's a bit of a rough texture (that's why I removed a star) but that may be just me or maybe it needs more laundry softener ><

Sound Eupho!

Permalink

I don't know what more to say that haven't been said in the description already. This include the tracks of the movie. I'm hunting for Asuka's solo but it seems it's not here.

Muse Music!

Permalink

Honestly, I want and bought this when I saw it has Snowhalation in the track, that's enough reason for me right there haha. This version isn't the dvd so pure music only.

Adorably petite!

Permalink

This was a gift for my sister and when it arrived we were shocked by how tiny it was XD. Granted we both overlooked the size detail but if you were to just look at the pictures, they appear much bigger than what they seem ;) She was planning to use it for 'lunch' but now it's delegated to snacks, specifically sushi lol
Aside from the size, they are ARE cute, and the print is amazing... I'm not convinced it's worth $20 though, maybe if you're getting it for the design... maybe(?)

Win-Win

Permalink

I don't see any way you can lose with this deal! Definitely worth it!

Beautiful figure!

Permalink

I haven't opened her up yet but I can already see through the window that she is beautiful!. Face is accurate, nice quality with a cute pose, A bit small for my actual taste but oh well ^^

Must have for pianist fans of Love Live School Idol

Permalink

The piano sheets I was looking for are here so it's reason enough for me to buy this ;) Though as far as I can tell the pieces are definitely not for beginners.. at least for intermediate players (or I'm just out of practice lol). But anyway, it's quite a thick piano book so lots of sheets here, definitely worth the price in my opinion.

I fell in love again!

Permalink

This piano book contains the four sheets (as is indicated by the product description), though it has like another format for the four towards the end. I'm not quite sure what the difference is aside from the sheet format (it's a bit compressed space-wise). But anyway great sheets!
Definitely a must have for all pianist fans of Your Name. This is for beginners though so the sheets are shorter than I would like.
The lyrics are included (I think as I can't read Japanese sadly ^^;), there are also a couple of art scenes from the anime, too bad they're black and white. Would have been a nice touch to have them colored as well, like in the front cover.
