[Otaku] Dancing Nendoroids

lol I came across a couple of these videos by accident on youtube while heading there to search for something else. The Hatsune Miku video was on the front page so I clicked on that, and clicked on a related after that to find a Haruhi video. Got sidetracked and now I forgot what I was originally going to search for. o.O

Anyway, nendoroids are usually cute by themselves, but seeing them dance is way too cute too handle! Especially the cute details like seeing Miku climb to the upper level and seeing her trip right before the curtain closes. lol

 


Hatsune Miku and friends dance to one of her tunes, then to caramell somethin somethin (dunno what it’s called) at the end

 


Haruhi, Yuki, and Mikuru dance to Hare Hare Yukai

HHMMMMMmmmm. Well personally I actually think the people they cast look ok lol. I’m sure most people have already heard that there will be a Hollywood live action version of Dragonball…maybe. It will be directed by James Wong and feature a mix of asian and american actors. Saw it when I was checking Superhero Hype for Dark Knight news.

[Otaku] Japanese robotic humanoid flyer dispensers

Well not really, but it sure looked like it lol. I saw this over at Akibablog and thought it was an interesting “performance.” Basically these two people were standing right outside the Akihabara train station as still as a statue with flyers in their hands. If anybody took a flyer, they would move like robots and ready another flyer in their hands. They were promoting some kind of doujin circle called BadEnd that produces their own voice drama surrounding a cast of interesting characters in a magic school. Can find more information and 4 chapters of a story they’ve put together in mp3 form at their site.

Well lookie what we have here! Play-Asia is running an Easter sale from now until 3/31 for 20% off all in stock items! If you’ve been waitin for that one thing to drop just a few bucks before pouncing on it, now would be your chance! No coupon code or anything needed, all in stock items have already been marked down! edit: Sorry though I said all in stock items, they mean all in stock items *except* new items that have been released within the past 30 days! Sorry! Still a ton of stuff to look for though lol.

Head on over to Play-Asia and check things out! ^^

Update:
They’ve added quite a few figures to their bargain section while I wasn’t looking, but most of them are already sold out! I can’t believe that so many went out so fast lol. There are still some nice grabs lying around though, so it might still be worth a look. Things get restocked regularly as well, so it’s all about keepin a good look out.

Btw, not just figures, but imported and domestic games, music cds, imported dvds/blurays, every category is on sale (for some who may not have been to Play-Asia before, they sell all sorts of things, and are quite legit. They don’t deal with bootlegs).

Do you like Kazami Mizuho (from Onegai Teacher)?

Because I have some old goods that I’d like to get rid of. I put them up on eBay a couple days back, but figured “hey, I have a blog now don’t I? Let’s throw this up on there too!” And that’s how babies are born.

blog formatting

By suneo 0 Comments
Categories: otaku & everything else

hm…for some reason for the post below, I couldn’t separate the text from the images no matter how many spaces I put in between them. I tried some html code but that didn’t seem to work either. If anybody knows how to separate them (at least one paragraph space in between), please let me know! Thanks!

wakuwaku wakawaka

Well now this is kind of exciting. Just playin around here and seeing what I can do. Never had such a blog before, so I’m just figuring things out as I go along right now!

So I’m plannin to make this blog about random anime/figure news and reviews and such (though I don’t have that many at the moment, I’m slowly getting into them), as well as other random stuff (food, photography, anything else that interests me). Thing is, I’m quite the lazy person, so I probably won’t be updating the blog with stuff everyday, or even every other day, but I will try my best not to let this thing die.

So anyway, here’s my first post, and hope to get things started soon.

Oh yea…Happy New Year too!
