Oh come on, this can wait another day MaiMai's livestream yesterday was more
important hehe *dabs*
I'm tired, I'm stressed, my stomach is in pain and I did not take work leave
THANK GOODNESS this box has only been sitting in here for a couple of days and
this should be done by last year but heck, maybe now it's time to wrap up my
2023 before Lunar New Year comes in and tells me my romance aspects are at an
all time low. *silence* No really, it said so on the readings. Well, 1 out of
2 of them I read isn't much to go about anyways but still *shrugs*
There's a lot on the line and I waited a long time it was excruciating just to
wake up to work every day for the past few weeks, so let me be relieved and
continue to write blog posts starting today extending into the weekend!! Not
Fanfiction though, I was talking about that roundup in case you were also
wondering where that was *wink*
But first let's unbox this normal box, shall we? Yeah, remember the last time
it was a stick long enough I can get a 3-year-old to pole dance-
|
Yeah, about that "document" thing... which is also why I can only ship
via EMS.
Why though haha
(Then again, they are warning against
receiving and shipping greeting cards which is the crux of this package
tbh)
|
|
See? This is very small.
Just that I paid more in shipping fees for
this compared to the previous one FYI
(ELI5 how that works dude)
|
|
Oh yeah, these things that I "won", by the way, with duplicates.
Really
becomes dull once you bought that calendar without dupes, huh.
(Yeah,
I have been duped lol)
|
|
That infamous padding my mom loves somehow lol
(I'm keeping this
now for her birthday present lmao)
|
|
Uh, I don't know which one this is from?
The box inside feels
familiar though...
|
|
Okay we know this hehe *wink*
|
|
And this.
If you have been following my adventures...
|
|
Also this.
"Document", by the way.
|
|
Not this though?
Hmm I do have a couple more greeting cards sent
in...
(Yeah it's ok doxx my foreign mailbox just don't send me
illegal stuff)
|
|
Also there's this??
Now I'm VERY confused haha I guess we need to
do the process of elimination now
|
|
And this is just bent??
I hope it's not anything important I bought
photos this time around *panik*
|
|
Oh hey, girls.
I feel like I said this last year haha *dabs*
|
|
Oh Douki-chan, dear Douki-chan, how I've missed you.
(Hehe)
|
So maybe we start with the greeting cards from the fanclubs I guess, this one
is really from last year this is
Kouno Marika's fanclub Christmas card!! And unless you are still under
the delusion of celebrating the new year even though we are 3 weeks in
especially if you aren't Chinese, I'm pretty sure you should be over that by
now so this is not that relevant. Oh boy, where should I start on this... a
lot of things have changed within this year if you would recall (and it's also
briefly stated on the card only thank goodness) Marinka had this depression
that is also physically affecting her (that's how depression works, by the
way) so she took almost a year long break. A long break of not posting selfies
outside of social media which was already undercut for this purpose. A long
break of not doing monthly livestreams talking about her work which is already
slowly making me lose interest just because. A long break of... what do
fanclubs do these days? This might be the first physical object I got from her
ever since the start of the fanclub nearly 2 years ago. Since this had auto
resub, this year's was by mistake, but not next year though. I think I can
adequately say that I've gotten quite enough of her... I don't know, emo-ness?
It's still depression but better, and if she doesn't change by May later this
year, I might stop giving her money. *silence* We shall see, I still like her
a lot I still want to bang her- See her in a gravure magazine- You think
that's where she got the depression from? *laughs* I speak from experience lol
I have to end on a happy note, we know it's the poison that is the Internet's
harsh comments... including me honestly I may have also spoke my mind too much
IN the fanclub, by the way.
MOVING ON!!! Haha no one said mistakes were made from just clicking the order
button. I really need to be careful with fanclubs like this from here on.
|
This is all we get. by the way.
No photos of her or drawings or
whatsoever, I checked the flip side.
|
Let's move to something way better, long time running and serving the
community fanbase (and me) it's
Minase Inori's latest issue of newsletter with a new year greeting card!
Timely too, it was closing on her live tour which ended last year and this was
just a good time to share to us fans about it. *ahem* Fanclub fans, the others
don't count. *giggles* Anyways, you may have seen the refreshed image with
that dork of whoever was in the dragon suit with "kung-fu Inorin" (lol), but
heck, already better than what they have done all these years, and this
fanclub though? I don't think I'll be quitting anytime soon. You're welcome,
Inorin. I've only been thinking of you all this time- Okay only when we have
to do the fanfics next month haha I got you booked on one of the Love Days
hehe
|
Oh since I didn't take the flip side, here's some Inorin handwriting
lol.
Whatever she drew on the top better not haunt me in my sleep
tonight lmao
|
|
Rather amazing cover, to be honest.
Not as cute as last time but
(Haha)
|
|
|
In case you need a reminder, she did a live tour recently based off the
title of her latest single
|
|
|
Is that
twintails
Inorin?? Oh tower-sized Kurari-chan haha
|
|
Thought I'd talk about why "I can't go home if I don't take good photos"
for her because that's her motivation;
Stayed for Inorin loving
those shiny illuminations in winter;
Laughed at Inorin saying she's
genius for saying "Kurari" as a photo-taking instruction lol
|
|
Oh thanks Inorin I hate that vegetable too in fact I will hate whatever
greens you hate since I hate them all
*dabs*
|
|
|
Trust me, present her
without makeup
looks so much better I actually love her for it ngl
|
|
This is easy to understand so might as well: Cool English Words
Ranking!
Shout out to when she wrote a song about "being in the moment"
|
|
|
Yeah, all of them fanclub stuff can be put in the package that holds
Marinka's Christmas card lol
|
And last but not least in the fanclub list and boy I promise you I will revise
my subscriptions after I'm done with this week's posts, we have
Hanazawa Kana fanclub new year greeting card!! Hey, at least we got
something out of this fanclub because I promise you signing up for Kana-chan
is quite literally, LITERALLY just to be in the fanclub events which I can't
physically attend. *silence* No, really. No wallpapers, no selfies, once in a
blue moon offshots and video comments if we're lucky and not even
livestreams?? Yeah, just her 20th anniversary bag which costs hundreds of
dollars? Yeah, this is rather disappointing, just like how I missed getting
her bromide photos that many months ago. *sigh* Remind me to cancel my card
information so it won't continue to take my money. *laughs*
|
|
Just trying not to doxx myself but I also wonder why I would show you
this but...
|
|
|
I just want to show her hand drawn Loch Ness out of the lake LMAO year
of the dragon btw
|
And OH BOY I THOUGHT I COULD NOT BE MORE DEPRESSED THAN MARINKA LAST YEAR BUT
*laughs* now that I'm glad that
Earphones' 8th Anniversary gacha goods did not appear with the same
time as the ones just there on sale including my calendar for the year? As I
would have mentioned last time but now I get to say it: It was more of a
mistake than the THREE times I spent money for marupi's... COMBINED. Yeah,
this roll of 10 items are like, close to two sets of marupi
gacha and I did
that thrice, for what is the prize list again? *ugh* Definitely nothing worth
talking about- Even the digital bromide photos are not what they show on the
website. Yes, in case you wonder why I would make such a decision... this was
BEFORE they announced and I get to buy the calendar and normal-sized bromide
photos. Yup, they knew. THEY KNEW- Rant's over, let's just move on- THIS is
why I only like Rieri haha alright me
Oh yeah there is something special about this just like other ones I've done
even though it's from a different service,
with any 10-roll I got a signed
*ugh* bromide photo (haha) for free so who did you think I got? *wink*
|
Deja vu from the other set that isn't randomized, anyone?
I got
loads of the same thing now, just larger.
Specifically of Marinka
and Rieri *dabs*
|
|
Hey! Specifically Rieri now hehe
(It's signed on print don't be too
excited lol)
|
|
And I don't know what to do with these acrylic prints.
*silence*
Oh
what the heck where's the trash pile haha
|
|
In case you are interested to see the line-up of what I got.
The
C-rated prizes are 2L bromides which also come with
digital versions.
(You're welcome I had to show an example)
I rather scan the
physical ones myself and use those as my phone wallpaper lmao
|
|
Oh, there's the guys name card if anyone wants to get them to take
photos... in their way
(lol)
|
So next up, and this is as haphazard as it's still somewhat more worth than a
lot of the ones I just mentioned above lmao, this is
Lynn-san's photobook in collaboration with graphic designer Shinagawa!
This is the second time they have been taking photos of women... in their way
for sale in Comiket, the first time they did this was with voice actress Suwa
Ayaka. (WHO?? lol gottem) But as you may have noticed unlike the theme of
"what gets them going" (lol, no joke), this designer here is taking photo
shoots in their own way. They chose some outer space alien-like theme for
Lynn-san which don't ask me why but heck this sure is new, they chose voice
actresses despite the many other women and influencers or even cosplayers they
could have gotten to do this, so this is just a rarity in itself. I'm pretty
sure the last time I bought a photobook of such for Comiket is from Futon-chan
years ago, if you would recall. So yeah, take this as something totally off
the rails but on-the-rails experience, yes? It's not a lot but I did bundle it
with a bromide set so we're good. *giggles*
|
|
Me playing with clay for the first time in kindergarten lol
|
|
Interesting cover, isn't it?
(Would've been better if her makeup
was normal though, but hey, gotta fit the theme)
|
|
Okay upside down Lynn-san this is new to me
*giggles*
(Oh
"Lynn Down Under" I get it haha)
|
|
Are those lines on her legs?
We not dealing with those magnetic
circuits, right?
|
|
|
This is actually lovely ngl it's just me with close-ups dude
|
|
No whatever that is do not eat it!!
(lol)
|
|
*smiles*
*thumbs up*
(Hehe)
|
|
Okay I want someone to explain what the artist is going on with this
image.
Wrong answers only haha
|
|
And one more for the road!
Oh her neck band is outside of her
outfit now?
|
|
|
Find this familiar? You are not alone.
|
|
|
Maybe this angle will give you a better idea?
|
|
THIS is how you know it's printed on order.
*dabs*
|
|
|
Damn, even the receipt is printed on photo paper wtf?
|
Okay this is cash grab territory and boy so is likely everything else after
this let's not count Lynn-san I guess, because her friend has come to snatch
my wallet- It's Isobe Karin's photobook bromide set!!! *laughs* No
really, in case you wonder how far she has come ever since that photobook in
September, she has then appeared in gravure magazines just because everyone
suddenly awoke their senses to this half-naked body (lol), and she has since
released a digital version with more shots to please (based on preview) (I
have not seen that in full yet tbh, still thinking), and also, released a
limited pressing of the photobook's selection of photos available for print!
Yes, we did this last time with like, Ibuki-chan but this is definitely an
easier decision since yes. *giggles* What, you think I got enough of that
2L-sized one that came with the photobook that many months ago? Not if there
aren't many more shots to please that we have not yet seen!! So thanks for
these 10 I did not pick what I liked I'm a bromide Andy I just take them all
so *dabs*
|
I'll just show you this much you can go look at my photobook review if
you need something to fap-
|
|
Oh hey, old friend, we meet again.
*giggles*
|
|
Okay Akarin I'm sorry for whoever slapped that seal on your face
(lol)
|
I don't think this needs more introduction but yes I was intending to use this
to pad the order but damn did those greeting cards shadow drop like the
paratroopers in wartime haha *ugh*,
it's yet another Suruga-ya run!!! WHOOO haha alright me, calm down. Why
am I this excited though? Because every time I do this is (most of the time)
for recently released photos, but this is also the easiest way to get somewhat
new yet used bromide photos from people who want to make a quick buck and
somehow prefer that over photos of women. Well, voice actresses for me Akarin
is a never-ending commitment. *giggles* Apart from her photos which I HAVE to
get because of that new voice actress magazine series of which the upcoming
issue was featuring Rieri and Yomiya Hina I don't know if this counts as the
time for me to buy another physical magazine but we shall see *wink*, there's
also the rare Marinka appearance, there's the imouto *giggles*, there's Yuuki
Aoi because the recent Seigura magazine featured her and don't ask me how much
I've regretted watching that Anime she was main in, and Kido Ibuki because why
not, those are 2L-sized I didn't even notice when it appeared and thought I
HAVE to have them regardless? Haha so many fun stories and missed
opportunities lol some also got away during this time period, so I took what I
can get.
|
|
This set is actually amazing in variety compared to the previous run I
can't even
|
|
And Ibuki-chan's perfect. *giggles*
Can't wait for her new
photobook where she actually shows skin-
|
|
|
Ah, I feel so at home now.
|
|
|
This series in a nutshell lmao
|
And to end this on a happy note though still sad to be honest but I am very
satisfied with this journey anyways, we conclude a loving series from
Yomu-sensei with
the final volume of "Ganbare Douki-chan"!! Yes, the
author mentioned this last year that this will be the end of the organic story
as - I don't know if this is spoiler alert if you have been following them -
Douki-chan finally goes out with the
same year dude
just as the newbie has anticipated, and yeah, happy ending even with all the
provocations from the other women in his life, eh? SHE CANNOT LET THAT GO and
what better way to do that than take the guy she likes for oneself? Ladies?
Anyone? Haha I guess not me but Douki-kun here is popular so he wins. Next
up... marriage?? *laughs* No way this girl will die of a heart attack
|
Oh yes the
lookback on the cover!
Damn, looking back at this makes me *sob*
|
|
|
Oh hell yeah let's go Douki-chan
|
|
|
Ah yes got her from behind hehe
|
|
SHAME!!!
I love it haha
|
|
And
Kouhai-chan's present was bigger so she wins.
(Haha get it, as in rack-)
|
|
Sorry Douki-chan but I can't drive so you take over. *laughs*
(This
is great gotta see the full size for yourself)
|
|
|
TFW girls getting gifts from their guys on White Day lol
|
|
Yeah, ya think?
Gotta keep edging her amirite
|
|
|
Love the thought on the left, "just date already" haha
|
|
|
Alright who cares if you give her back on White Day also she didn't give
you sh*t-
|
|
And all you have given her is anxiety holding HER GUY'S HANDS-
(Haha
Douki-chan sorry but I gotcha)
|
|
|
Any lower and I might as well flag this site as matured lmao
|
|
|
Every time she dreamt of her boi doing it with some woman that isn't her
lol
|
|
|
All because
Shinjin-chan here mentioned about how Kouhai-chan wins in rack (and kindness)
|
|
THE
SENPAI
SAID THE THING-
Title drop, by the way.
|
|
OH YES THIS hehe
(It was a lonely night, they both walk together,
she doesn't want him to go...)
|
|
|
Literally got stopped at the platform, and then...!!
|
|
|
You can see this marvel online yourself I'm not going to spoil it haha
|
|
|
And life goes on as normal haha Kouhai-chan DOES NOT CARE
|
|
And as usual and for the last time...!!
Thanks Toranoana for a
clear folder free gift that houses its contents.
|
And FINALLY I can cut my nails haha it was ROUGH typing this post with me
scratching the surface of this poor new keyboard. *laughs* I am probably going
to forget about this as I touch up this post first because tomorrow!! No, not
yet Fanfiction I know you are as excited as I am, but we gotta wrap
this last year up with the yearly roundup of... basically the
same things but you are probably only interested in the stuff I did on the
digital side of things, yes? So be sure to come back again to find out which
gravure photobook I bought from that adult website from Japan again, and more!
Haha is that enough clickbait I sure hope so
P.S. Hey hey
Tenso maybe just an
idea: How about just create a mail service instead of a package service so I
don't have to pay buttloads of money to you guys for shipping- Oh wait, why
would they though? *laughs*
P.P.S. I just realized when I was backing up the images, 69 IMAGES, DUDE??
This is how I end the year though? Nice.
