M-1 Grand Prix

Can’t decide which entry is cuter – TeiReisen or Yakumo Chen?.. Chen is so silly with her megaphone, but Reisen… Then there’s Ran cosplaying Suika and going “nyahahaha”.

Scarlet Mansion Tsukkomi was nice too (as well as Patchu Mirin), but I didn’t like those two as much.

Retards

So I left my PSP on the desk for just a minute… and a local idiot overwrote my Burnout Dominator save. Accidentally. I had ~7500 Dominator points, with all series except Race Specials and Dominator Series completed (13/13 events, 13/13 gold medals, 5/5 cars unlocked). I have zero points now.

…The Humiliation

Who would have thought that Ryuuji is a pervert?.. But I must admit, this episode was kind of epic. I guess I’ll get to work on userpics based on it tomorrow.

In other news: I’ve watched the first episode of Casshern Sins. The series is kind of… strange. But the characters somehow have really pretty designs, except for those robots, of course. I’ll check the next two or three episodes to decide if to drop the series or not. I don’t like the ‘main character’ guy though.

Been also playing Burnout Dominator and got to over 7000 Dominator points – I still have to beat the Tuned Series Grand Prix though since I only have scored a Silver Medal in it before. And I don’t really understand why can’t I use the unlocked Dominator car during Grand Prix… and where can I use it at all. After getting the Gold in that event I’ll try the next available series, I guess.

Also, I’ve got my (new) Kara no Kyoukai novels, will probably start reading those the next week; the three movies I watched were pretty impressive, too (well, TYPE MOON it is).

P.S. Somehow, I think I like WordPress more than LiveJournal…

Golden Darkness by Good Smile Company

Golden Darkness by Good Smile Company

We all probably know Good Smile Company – one of the two best figure makers. The second one (in alphabetical order of course, not because one of them is better – they’re equal) is Max Factory – and we’ve seen their power combined in the Figma action figure series.

Here’s a truly “DO WANT”-class figure, Golden Darkness (1/8 scale), to be released by the aforementioned GSC in March 2009.

 

As I mentioned already, Golden Darkness, for me, is the sole reason to watch To Love-Ru.

Sega’s Vignetteum Cute Series

Nendoroids, clayroids and whateveroids for Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu series are widely available. It’s not like there’s not enough of them – yet Sega releases a new series of “super deformed” figures, called Vignetteum Cute. The first release is discontinued at the moment (and to be honest, I’m not all that upset about it as I don’t like the designs somehow), and the second wave is coming.

Behold:
