Beginning of March loot

Yesterday I bought Gemaga Magazine April issue for the cover and the inner poster. The iM@S girls looks gorgeous in that dress.


It also contains a bit of information about Mahoutsukai No Yoru, the new game by TYPE-MOON.

I think some of those pictures are new, but I don't care much. The lack of Takeuchi Takashi as the main designer was a joykiller for me, so I'm rather expecting CANAAN than this.

I also purchased a 5,000 yen PlayStation Network Card. I must correct myself; the price is the amount of the card.
Is a bit hard to find stores with the PSN cards compared to the Wii point cards and the Microsoft point cards, and in the first shop that I tried they were out of stock. I think that thanks to IdolM@ster, the PSN cards purchased skyrocketed (when was released in the 360, Microsoft points sold were multipied by 4).

And today's loot:

Kalafina's debut album, Seventh Heaven, released today.

Kalafina performs the theme songs for the Kara no Kyoukai movies.

Saber Shashin-shuu, a collection of portraits of Saber. Expensive, few pictures and none by Takeuchi... but I purchased it even knowing that beforehand.
The book is hard to keep open and I don't have scanner, so I can't take pictures of it, but here is a bad picture of the bromide included:


I also wanted to buy the limited edition of the manga Idolm@ster Break! by Fujima Takuya, that it was also released today, because it contained a download code for a dress and an accesory for the games, but was already sold out in Animate, Melon Books, Gamers, Kinokuniya and even in the nearest mom and pops book shop...

End of year loot

On X'mas day I met with a fellow TYPE-MOON collector from Finland, and showed him Shinkyogoku-dori and Teramachi-dori. I seized the opportunity to buy in Animate some stuff that was released that day:

Fate/stay night Vol. 8 by Nishiwaki Datto.
I think this manga is the most uninteresting of all the officially TYPE-MOON related, and don't know how long will be, since is a mix of all three routes from the game...

Fate/Kaleid Liner Prisma Illya Vol.2 by Hiroyama Hiroshi. This is the last volume and is a pity, because it was pretty interesting and I was a follower of the author in his circle KALMIA.

Gekijouban Kara no Kyoukai Comic a la Carte ~ Kakusei-hen ~ . Comic a la Carte are anthologies of the one-shots that appear in Comptiq and Comp Ace magazines. In this case is based, as the name implies, in Kara no Kyokai.

Fate/stay night 8 and Fate/Kaleid Liner 2 both came with a shop extra, that small postcard (?) that appears on the pic.

Comp Ace February '09 (yeah, at the end of December they release the February issue). This number was largely based in TYPE-MOON, and came with a Fate/Zero Drama CD.

And lastly, Kalafina single fairytale, the latest ending song from the latest Kara no Kyokai movie. As a bonus, they gave me a nice poster:

(the photo sucks, but this is actually the best one out of 5 retries)

And yesterday I received thanks to a friend a doujinshi that I was looking for:

KALMIA ARCHIVE by Hiroyama Hiroshi of circle KALMIA.Yes, is the same author of the Fate/Kaleid Liner Prisma Illya, and contains his works in the 2005-2007 period.

Greetings

Responding to the petition of Danny from dannychoo.com, today I'm starting my first blog. It will be focused in the stuff that I'm buying, mostly figures.
Don't expect daily updates, almost professional photos or groundbreaking news...

To begin with, here is a photo of today's lot bought in OtaRoad (Osaka):


A 2002 doujinshi, Gyunn Gyunn Color: 1, from circle Shiitake.
It's from a somewhat obscure eroge from Littlewitch, Shirotsume Souwa, but I bought it just for the colaboration of Shirotsumekusa from circle Crazy Clover Club.

Both cd's are from Kalafina; Re/oblivious and the limited version of sprinter/ARIA. I missed the chance to bought it when were released and I was searching for them since I arrived to Japan.
Kalafina sings the endings of the Kara no Kyoukai movies.
