I've started watching Corpse Princess, and so far I like it alot. Im can't wait for the episode that tells more about the cat. :3
 
Well just watched the second episode of To Love Ru Darkness and it's moving quite fast but whatever. Third episode will be VERY interesting with that scene in it. Can't wait to see Tearju in animated form.
 
Finally got my Sep AmiAmi order. Really need to stop ordering stuff SAL, it takes forever.


Sep. 2012 AmiAmi order. by otakushots, on Flickr

Saber/Extra is my first Beach Queens figure, and she's actually pretty nice. Really small, like prize figure size, but the detail is pretty good and I like the sculpt.

Kiritsugu isn't as badly packed as he looks by the way, I took him out and put him back, which is why the guns fell out of their places.
 
That bikini is hot... facial expression doesn't match Saber's personality at all though :lol:

The Saber in Fate/EXTRA is actually a different historical figure from the F/SN and F/Z etc one, and has a totally different personality. They don't really explain why she looks so similar, haha.

And yeah, they nailed it with the bikini, haha. If only I could get my GF to do THIS costume, lol.
 
I figured that much...still hate plain bases.

Yeah it's not particularly impressive. It's actually textured to look like sand but it's a pretty unnatural color and all. All the Beach Queen figures come with the same bases so you can put them together, though. I also have the Saber Lily, Saber/Alter, and Yuuko (from Dusk Maiden) Beach Queens preordered, so this is relevant to me. I might also have Kuroneko, can't even remember if I POd her or not lol.
 
You may want to talk this over with your GF for a split-transaction; I'm going to sell off my preordered Ultimate Madoka when I get it. Note she isn't going to be beach queens-cheap. It's going to put quite a dent in your wallet if you want it..

They have three different types of Sabers?
Normal- quiet, strong type, girlish at times
Alter- Very string, talkative, Gothic?
Queen- High class, very lady-like, and strong willed?
Then there is Saber- Lily. Though you may have the Queen-type since her facial expression is different.

Normal, Alter, and Lily are all the same person, just different versions. Alter is "corrupted" and Lily is sort of an "alternate reality" version. There's actually very little background out there for Lily since she's just a fighting game character, but the two basic concepts put forth by the creators are that either she's Saber if she hadn't impersonated a man and had ruled openly as a woman, or she's Caster's idealized version of Saber.

Saber/Extra has nothing to do with them aside from being in a "Fate" game and looking a lot like the other Saber. She's cocky and kind of overbearing but relatively likable, with a strong sense of theatre and an exhibitionistic streak a mile wide, and a fondness for drunken, debauched partying.

Sorry, neither of us is a Madoka fan. We would've preordered the figure had we been interested anyway. Price isn't really an issue for us with most figures, unless the figure isn't worth what the manufacturer is asking. (eg. many Clayz figures, which are like $100 for a figure that looks like a prize figure.)

I only caught those opinions in Carnival Phantasm

You should make a contract with us then.

Haha, not gonna get me with that one. People on twitter and FB (and forums etc) have made sure I've been exposed to no shortage of Madoka stuff. One of my friends is actually such a fan that he's flying from Vancouver (BC) to San Francisco this weekend to see the movie in a theatre!

I just wanted the cookies, one of them promised me if I get you to sign this contract.
 
"I'm gonna tell him off!" Nanba Dad

"There he is! Let him have it, dad!" Nanba Mom

".....Hibito...



....OFF!" Nanba Dad.


:lol:


Hell, not even AOS.

I rather spend the money on more Hot Wheels than a plane ticket to see a movie. ;)

Finished Narutaru. It kind of sucks.

*Barely getting into anime*
*Almost starts with Eva*

You know? Every new member of the community should come in and totally smack everyone in the face saying they've watched Evangelion, instead of the pussy-moe shows everyone sees these days. Now go watch Puella Magi Madoka Magica.

What's wrong with starting with Eva? Or I am just generally confused with your comment. :confused:
