The Welfare Package August 2023

Man, with my luck basically in this whole month, maybe it's a bad idea to even touch on new packages considering they have random elements, huh. Too late I guess and I wrote this BEFORE I did the new DOAXVV event gacha just now, by the way. *sigh* I'll be alright lmao *sob*

I wanted to do this yesterday but was too lazy to do so haha but also this is a good end to my work week since as expected I took off tomorrow *dabs*, so I'll do this today and *wink* a Klassic Note Review tomorrow- HAPPY BIRTHDAY KOGA AOI!! I've been thinking about her all week because phone wallpaper (lol) and I'm just here after watching her birthday livestream on her regular series apparently rolling gacha on her favourite(?) mobile game some of the SSR images looked familiar, and she rolled enough SSRs with her (stacked) friend (lol) to catch the attention of the game's official social account. *laughs*

With my weekend plan in check apart from getting all the good stuff lol life is pain, let's get this going! We gotta end the month on a good note somehow how about a "Klassic Note"- Damn I suck at jokes lol

Tsuzuri - NAME [Single]

Hanazawa Kana Fanclub "Destination Club" SUMMER GREETING CARD 2023

Kitou Akari Zepp Tour 2023 Goods

KannoMai Birthday Summer Goods

DEAD OR ALIVE Xtreme Venus Vacation Venus Acrylic Diorama Set (5.5 Years)

Ganbare Douki-chan Vol.10

But before we talk about anything- UNBOXING!!!! Haha I do this only about once a month we skipped a month so this one's just a freebie lol is that how it works

You know they shoved it in the mailbox from how the packaging is bent
(lol why)
(also thanks dad by the way haha)

See, I'm a lawful citizen who pays their taxes- *pukes*

Wow this looks like a mess haha did they just throw everything together?

Oh hey Tsuzuri-san we will deal with you another time

Oh okay the bromides are in here

Wow these badges- Merry Christmas everybody haha what

Oh this is a postcard alright
(Yes, address removed because I don't want to pay shipping for incoming "gifts" lol)

Well, (writing this again because Blogger but) let's talk about the cheapest item in the box because it's free lol, it's Hanazawa Kana's summer greetings to her fanclub members!! In case you forget I'm in this fanclub of a married woman (lol) early this year and she started this a year ago, only just celebrated her first anniversary and we're already getting more physical goods from her. Heck, Minase Inori's fanclub is the only one giving us more physical items for free on a regular basis so I can only be grateful that these are trying to burn my international shipping fees. *laughs* Then again, this isn't as much as the anniversary booklet I got considering I signed up at the right time to get it I assume, but you know, this is an effort made on their side. It's nice to think that she's travelling the world and sending you a postcard, isn't it? I mean, she is travelling the world she has gone to China to perform so...

Eh not going to read all of it but she's talking about summer stuff like Anisama lol
("Let's overcome the summer together" Hell yeah I will lol)
(Also, the crazy lack of swimsuits in this even though she keeps talking about them on her radio show)

Hmm, this is too many photos to digest because one of them is not like the others haha let's put Anime down first

So, this one was the reason what I have been worrying about since what, a month ago? Yeah, this is Kitou Akari's live tour goods!! Buying from this online store Canime is already making me have bad flashbacks this year alone and I blame them entirely for my bad luck thus far (lmao), the last time I bought from them was Taketatsu Ayana which if I knew this would be on sale I would have delayed my purchase and consolidated so I can save on shipping fees because damn I missed the window to buy some Hanazawa Kana bromides which sold out before I could plan for any of this. So yeah, this is going great to far. *laughs* You're welcome, PONY CANYON. *laughs* On the upside though, this set features much allure from matured Akarin definitely trying to one-up her married friends (lol), so yeah can someone date her already? Preferably not a female because that's all she does now? *laughs*

No really Akari-san, how much for this evening?
*dabs*

How are my hopes and dreams brighter than this lighting?
I'll use the bedsheet next time lol

Okay 1 out of 1, if you want to see more just see the bromide photos hehe

Yay 2 out of 2!
That wasn't so hard, wasn't it?

Hmm let's see what else they shoved in there-
(No, CD, not now)

Ah, this looks like a familiar combination that'll get me some duplicates lol
(FOR MAIMAI haha f**king simp)

And I consider this being the highlight of it all considering we just watched the livestream(s) from last week and especially paid to watch the one the day before her birthday, it's Kanno Mai's birthday live event goods!! It's her first time doing this we've all been there lol, she's nervous and it's obvious, I think I missed out on the talk event where she spilled something which is titular of her when she started this idol podcast money-making scheme at the start of this year and I pounced on it like a simp I am (haha), just got too high on her selling these bromide photos directly since it has been through some magazine and stuff so far, so I just went ahead and bought more and maybe give ma bro some if I get some dupes. They also sold other things like a non-spill lunch mat because she spilled cup noodles on her very first livestream (haha), tapestry to scale of her 144.5cm height (lmao) and 44.5cm acrylic stand (lol) if you are into those, both mocking on her height measurements in one of the (paid) livestreams if you are into those. With all this, there's also gifts with purchase which was a random sticker so as you can see for me, this is nothing but just a game of chance. *silence* Let's see how bad this gets- It's MaiMai she will "bless the rains down in Africa" haha

Okay so we have EIGHT photos (4 packs, in sets of 2) here and there's SIXTEEN variations-
Just saying, the scale in this purchase is rare by random standards lol
*gets Marinka bromides deja vu*

FIRST TWO!!
So yes, split into two outfits, summer MaiMai and princess MaiMai
(Hell yeah, 2 out of 2)

Okay luck ran out of 4- KAWAII~!!
(Love the close-ups, thank goodness she kept the skirt down lol)

Damn, why is the left side winning hehe the right side looks like a printing factory lmao
*holds abdomen*

HOLY SHIT THESE LAST TWO ARE GREAT haha *chef's kiss*
(But serious talk though, only 2 duplicates? MaiMai is too nice to me~ *dabs*)
(Didn't get cleavage though, cringe? *laughs*)

These are in gold these GOT to not have duplicates lol then again I only bought these 2 with 6 variations

Okay 1 out of 1 haha nice

Hey, one from each outfit! Good enough for me hehe

And for effect...!!
(Why on my hand lol)

Have you seen this outfit of hers on not Twitter? Uh... on social media though? Yeah it's so cute though it's the "HeiHei Kissa Version" the company which brought us all of this *blessed* (Oh yes there is cleavage in that and she covered it HAHAHA) (Idols need to show a little somethin' somethin', girl)

Oh hey to whatever this is that still has lesser makeup than MaiMai lmao *dabs*

Oh yeah, these guys which I would like to call "Expansion Pack Part 2" haha

I didn't believe when I saw this 3 months ago they were too smart to capitalize on this for their 5th anniversary and a half, this is DOAXVV mini acrylic backdrop sets!! I don't know what to call these to be frank, but essentially remember the last time I had to buy some acrylic stands to rank the characters in game? Now you can display all of them by putting them on sets with backdrops! And with props!! And it was discounted on the day of announcement after the livestream for about 12 hours!!?? Yep, capitalism at its finest right here haha, so I COULD NOT help but get myself these sets to display all of the (I have now) 28 girls + 2 new outfits for Misaki and Marie Rose because why not it's for a special outfit series (under paywall, I paid for Misaki just because), and all of this came in just in time instead of a year ago when they sold the main set of acrylic figures? *laughs* Really, they couldn't have sold these at a better time where I am literally into this, so I'm just glad I don't have to put these girls scattered all over my table now lol I just need to know where to keep the individual circular stands now LMAO first world problems amirite

In case you wonder why this post took me a whole night to do, this is why!! LET'S KUMITATE haha

So you see, normally each girl has their own circular stand with their name on it...
(This is newest girl Yukino-chan, still behind paywall as of writing)

But now, you can slot her into one of these sets!

And with all the other holes on the stand, you can put things like props
(These are from the five-and-a-half anniversary race queen theme)

You can also dock in other girls too since they have the same bottom attachment-
That sounds wrong lmao

Of course, they can't be giving us just ONE backdrop so here's the default island one.
Looks like they are playing volleyball now hehe
*cringe*

Yeah Tamaki is here looking at me playing with this by the way
(Haha "old man playing with plastic" cringe)

Trust me, I took WAY took long to assemble all of them to show you guys so...
Haha remember this was just about ranks? *laughs*

Oh hey, senpai or whatever her name was I forgot

Nice.
Nice.
There's a QR code on the bottom right btw
(Haha bet you didn't notice that, didn't ya)
(It's just the product number haha it's a digit off though)

Last but not least and I wished I planned this for the next package but heck tradition is better and the store exclusive free gift should explain why, it's the latest issue of Ganbare Douki-chan!! THIS IS THE TENTH VOLUME how are we in double digits territory already, and I can only keep saying that I'm breaking my personal record for following and purchasing a manga(?) series for this long we are at this point four years in already, but as we see this come to an end as fulfilled by author Yomu-sensei... I guess this is the senpai's turn to flirt with our main guy! Yeah, they have determined that getting Douki-chan jealous using whichever woman around the guy's life is THE WAY to get her to confess lmao sorry for foreshadowing *wink*

"Too much skin but not my type" Haha this is my opinion of her in a nutshell

Yeah, typical response to mom "work is great, no love interest" haha same

LMAO the mom questioned enough to confirm she has a boyfriend
(Haha even in the family she's easy to read)

Haha yeah this
"Douki-chan (6 years old)"

Yeah same kouhai-chan haha
(I'm not a lolicon lmao)

I've already healed why do I even need the plaster
(Haha Douki-chan at the back though)

Not going to show you the full image of her getting wet due to the rain but it's on social
(Haha Douki-kun being the gentleman here though)

And she did the boyfriend shirt thing by smelling it haha

If this isn't anything to get you excited you can imagine Kouno Marika playing tennis but with waaaay more bounce
*laughs*

Having colleagues and/or love rivals come over to your place is great times, eh?
*giggles*

Even holding hands with her boi is unforgivable now by Douki-chan standards haha
(That squeeze hehe)

Even holding hands with her boi is unforgivable now by Douki-chan standards haha
(BRUH STOP BEING HUNGRY lol)

Ah, this is some plot, the senpai has to leave early *wink*

And of course Douki-chan had to try out this arm for herself lol

Aw, what's stupid about clinging on to the guy you like
(Yeah F**K DOUKI-CHAN lol)

Somehow their conversation of her and her boi has to do with sex haha

Merry Christmas everybody-
Come back in 4 months to savour this lol

Naughty Douki-chan in action hehe nice

See, it's when you guys are out ice skating, it's just easier for koukai-chan to land on your boi now lol
(Douki-chan is behind her btw)

"Lets go out together again"??
SAY NO TO THREESOME lol

Oh yeah this is totally taking a jab at the Anime "Urusei Yatsura" remake because Uesaka Sumire voices main girl which is cosplayed here

And that's why I insist on getting from Toranoana every time, its special gift is a clear folder you can put the book in.
*thumbs up*

Wow even this package unboxing is in a mess, that's great, just like my life now. *silence* Well, hope this is enough for me to last even for the rest of the month. I know this is not a lot, me, but it's definitely a promise from me that this is still going and that the upcoming ones will be bigger- We saw Isobe Karin's rack, it's confirmed to be bigger. *laughs* See you then next time for more of this, as I continue to find purpose in my work life instead of spending money on whatever this post is. *silence* Man, too real, too real- Spending money on dumb stuff like this is better hehe prove me wrong dude

P.S.

A closer look at my DOAXVV playground now that I have no SSRs to rank on the podium lol
(Yeah I'm letting the new girls pit against the first two I chose to start the game with)
