Comic Market 80 doujinshi loot

Late and brief review of C80 releases (and some Comitia releases as well) that I bought:

As usual, those are mostly works from the circles that I systematically follow. In detail:

T-Moon Complex X 07, keeping the excessively long Fate vs. Tsukihime crossover by Shirotsumekusa of circle Crazy Clover Club and Mado☆Magi Complex, an updated version of his previous work.
This time bonus is a shitajiki with Arcueid in one side and the T-Moon Complex cover in the other.

Konton Lady Studio Ryuu Soushuuhen from circle Konton Lady Studio, a compilation of IDOLM@STER works that are not part of their Super Kotori Time series.
Their released 2 compilations at the same time: Ryuu, this one, is focused in the works drawn by Tee and Tora, focused in the works of DIT. Sadly I was unable to find the other volume...

The works by Kikuta Kouji from circle King Revolver: Futanari Gohan (featuring futa Mami and Homura "playing" with a non-futa Madoka) Natsu No Bunny (featuring several characters in bunny outfits, but mostly Mami from Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica), Summer Pudding (starring a yukata dressed Rider) and the copy-shi Serio-san to Ecchishiyou starring Serio.

Atsui Hi Daradara by Takemura Sessyu from the circle Chotto Dake Aru Yo., starring extremely lewd versions of Makoto and Miki staying at Producer's home.

Hijirin Yume Mousou and Mima-sama Yume Mousou by Tsukiwani of Circle Nurumaya.
When I was living in Japan I was strongly exposed to Touhou universe, but now my interest in it is quickly fading (I didn't play anything since Subterranean Animism). Besides that, Tsukiwani does exactly the same situation in every issue, and while it was fresh in the first ones, after 14 issues it's a bit repetitive...

And Enikki Recycle 16, the blog entries compilation of A1 (Initial-G) covering the second half of 2010. The omake booklet features Chihaya from IdolM@ster.

Megami Magazine September '11

And yet another magazine that I bought only for the extra, Megami Magazine September '11 issue.

This time I bought it because of a Weiß Schwarz promo card (and to a lesser degree, a iDOLM@STER drama cd included):

Angel's swimsuit! 765Pro

The rest of the magazine is not really very interesting.

A few iDOLM@STER pages covering the anime.

The upcoming THE iDOLM@STER 2 for PS3.

The Gravure4You! mini game included in the limited version and the seiyuu in their last live concert.

The cover and a few pages are dedicated to the anime of Steins;Gate. I played the trial version of it in the Xbox and I'm quite interested in it, but I didn't watch the anime.

The only TYPE-MOON related stuff in the whole magazine is this Carnival Phantasm mini poster.


Swimsuit Sayaka in one side...

...and swimsuit Ryoko in the other.

Doujinshi

The latest batch of received doujinshi, mostly Comic Ichi releases:


Initial-G omake book
is a short copy booklet with a few pin-up images of Miki and Azusa from IdolMaster.

Itsumo no Yuukarin is the latest work by Tsukiwani. Is his second non-ecchi work that was supposed to be released in the cancelled Reitaisei. The main character this time is Yuuka.

Cute ashamed Yuuka

Haru no Bunny is the last work by Kikuta from King Revolver, starring Valkyria Chronicles' Selveria in bunny outfit.

Mado Magi Complex
is the first non-TYPE-MOON related doujinshi by Crazy Clover Club after a long, long time. Features mostly short gags featuring the Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica girls.

Mami is not longer alone. I really like his works the best when he doesn't try to be serious.

And Senjou No Tsundere Senshachou by Yuzuki N', a Valkyria Chronicles 3 starring Rydia. In a semi-related note, VC3 is not being released outside Japan, so I'll buy the Japanese version once is re-released as budget version.

Megami Magazine April '11

Another magazine that I bought only for the extra, Megami Magazine April '11 issue.

The wanted extra was a Weiß Schwarz promo card:

"New challenge! 765 Pro" card, using iDOLM@STER anime designs.

The other extra was a reversible long poster:

Swimsuit Madoka from Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica...

..and swimsuit loli-Nanoha from Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha.

As always the magazine includes lots of small posters of scantly clad anime women:

Sexy Homura, the same picture of the cover. She's my favorite character from the series.

iDOLM@STER poster featuring Hibiki, Miki and Haruka in maid uniform.

And the rest of the magazine is not really interesting, since Megami tends to be a massive pin-up collection of recent anime, most of them I don't even follow.

The only interesting thing is the character designs for iDOLM@STER anime.

Newtype March '11

More delayed reviews, this time Newtype March '11 issue:

As I said previously, I rarely buy magazines unless it have a nice extra or groundbreaking news. The reason of this purchase was the former, because it contains this clear folder:
A Takeuchi drawn clear folder featuring Saber, Arcueid, Shiki and both Neko-Arcs.

There is another clear folder included featuring Index, Mikoto and Kuroko from To Aru Majutsu no Index. I didn't watched the anime or read the novels, but maybe I'll give it a try since the Misaka Sisters are kinda similar to Serio...

The magazine contents are the usual entries about current and soon-to-come anime. Worth of mention are:

Fate/Zero anime adaptation. The airing date will be this year.

Kiritsugu and his voice actor Koyama Rikiya.

I didn't mentioned before, but iDOLM@STER will also have an anime adaptation! This time the story will follow the games, unlike the aberration that was the mecha filled Xenoglossia...
No date yet.

Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica was the only anime I watched this season (not counting Fireball Charming). It was a great series, and if is not by Aoki Ume's character designs (that I don't really like much) this anime would be in my top ten...

And a Carnival Phantasm poster. No new info, just this poster.
