Maybe The Expo Was Just An Excuse To Shop

Hm, I believe we have been through this before but I have a shopping problem. I guess going to the Anime Expo where there was much stuff peddled was a bad idea for some one of my condition but luckily I was capped at £100. Doesn’t help me at all when October’s Expo comes around with my having an estimated £500 by then….

So the spoils. Again at any chance I get, I went for a bunch of manga. I found it strange actually that after looking in many places, this was the first time I was able to pick up something from the Shonen Jump line. Gladly I did find this as Vol 5 of both Busou Renkin and D.Gray-man are one of my favourites to still get. I would have gotten more Negima as well but alas I only saw a Vol. 14 and no 13 T____T

My best purchase, has to be the RX-93-V2 Hi-V Gundam. I was looking for the Wing Custom KA actually and was about to set my sights on something else until I saw this beauty on display going for £57. I am going to have so much fun putting this thing together being that this is the first Gundam I have bought in a long while… Expect some posts about it maybe…

My friend who I went with bought a heavy arms custom and the Noir Stirke. I was about to blow my manga money on getting the Noir Strike as well because of its sheer coolness but I resided to later on ordering it. That should come in about two weeks.

So yeah, enough of the conquests, onto thoughts of the actual Expo itself. I found it okay, but it really wasn’t that much for me except as a shopping excursion for all of the niche items I would ever want under one roof. About the only interesting thing was seeing some of the really good DDR players and the Cosplayers. A new experience for me, I actually had fun Cosplay-Spotting. Man, was there a lot of Jariya’s.

Well anyways, it was still an enjoyable excursion and was only a twenty minute walk from my house so I was able to quickly arrive back at a place to get started on my Gunpla XD Expect some posts soon, most probably on the gunpla as all of my attention is attuned to that at the moment, and I don’t think I could concentrate on anything else until it is finished.

But after getting back into action with a huge Master Grade Kit, this could take a while… with the Noir Strike afterwards and also probably a 1/100 scale H.M.S. Victory, I may not get off my modelling binge for a bit =P

Anticipation for London Expo

First of all, I would like to say I am not dead and hopefully going to get back into the swing of things with the worst of my exams over with. Secondly and the main point, I am excited about the London Expo tomorrow, being my first actual anime convention visit.

The spoils and such will probably be blogged on afterwards as well, hopefully sparking me off to stop being dead on the blogging matter. Lately also, redesigns of the site are in development, at the end of which a couple of wordpress themes possibly will be available but that may take the whole summer.hope to show a preview at least soon and finally use the domain to a better standard.

Buiiki Kaesu [Maximum the Homone]

Call me crazy (please don’t, it hurts my feelings somewhat) but I have only recently watched the new Death Note OP, and since then, I fell in love with it. My first time hearing something so close to heavy metal used as an OP for an animé and I loved the sound so I went to get the album it went with, Buiiki Kaesu. From it, I actually found that What’s Up People!? was actually one of the only pure rock tracks from Maximum the Hormone for their new single. The rest was a smooth fusion of pop mixing with metal, and I loved every minute of it. XD

Fate/Stay Night: Fate Route Released

And the Saber fans rejoiced, while the Rin and Sakura fans bide their time knowing that the routes they want will be out sooner than later now. So indeed, the Fate route has been released by mirrormoon and I am ecstatic. Although this storyline interested me the least, it does mean that the project is definitely moving and also, I have something to keep me busy… *Looks for wherever I left those Fate/Stay Night files* (Like i need another distraction with exams around the corner….)
