When the meido cafe was first announced, I was seriously skeptical about how well patronised it would be.
Being the negative Zylon that I am, I doubted very much if casual fans would pay for a meal that you get at a hawker centre Western food stall at less than half the price or if ...

j1m0ne gives a pretty good blow-by-blow account of the K-ON! Experience panel on AFA09 Day Two so, instead of re-reporting what happened, I'll concentrate on sharing my reactions.
Photography and video recording was forbidden - even though I had a media pass, none of us in the media pit ...

Mentar agrees with Stripey's assessment, at least wrt Shizuku.
Which is about right given that my instinctive first reaction to ARIA was: "What mixture of corruption, collusion and nepotism did Akari and/or her family use to land her that plum job on Aqua?" I suppose being ...

Seeing Hibiki-sensei at AFA09 Day One was a most pleasant surprise - I hadn't noticed this in the map/program sheet or on the website. She kindly signed an autograph towards the end of the first day but the main event was announced on this makeshift sign which indicated she would have an ...

It's late, I'm tired. Like Alafista , my legs hurt like hell from standing the whole day. Just a few quick interim notes for now.
There seems to be fewer exhibitors/stands than last year, can anyone confirm? Crowd felt thinner than last year's in the morning but it rose up, like a great ...

This time I tried to avoid the white balance problem that was so prominent in my Saber Lily indoor shoot by cutting out the incandescent lights. But it seems that my fluorescent lights are too harsh (i.e. need a diffuser) and, at the same time, not bright enough (i.e. need one more). While ...

The Edison Chen Photo Scandal was quite traumatic for me really. Mainly from fapping too much.
The third panel is supposed to be a reference to a scene from Ep 14 of Azumanga which is based on 'The Adult World' 4koma towards the end of Vol.2 of the manga. It's my favourite scene from the ...

For 2009 at least. Well, alright, potentially 2010 too since I blew my 2010 PVC budget on these overpriced little buggers as an early Xmas gift for Wife-chan (Though to be honest, I thought beautiful Waifu-chan deserves better/bigger but sadly poor tanuki is poor.)
My 2009 PVC adventures have ...

I was quite grumpy when I took Fate out of her box and gave her the once over. There are numerous issues with the figure in my possession such as poor casting hair), sloppy painting (torso) and a loose fit for the lower hand that wields one of the twin Riot Zanber blade [I'll elaborate on ...

Sometimes it's great to throw out some bones of contention and crumbs of ambiguity for fandom to chew over but Josh's Four Questions illustrates how this Uncertainty Gap was much too wide. As such, even after ruminating over it for weeks, I still think Phantom: Requiem for the Phantom 's ending ...

I've never bothered to put up a page dedicated to my figures mostly because my collection is small - after three years, the grand total is still a very modest 18. But even if the number continues to grow slowly, it will be useful to have a page will allow me to keep track of my collection at a ...

Marathoning Hayate no Gotoku!!, my flame for Hinagiku was rekindled and eventually evolved into an inferno. I don't remember such overpowering Hina-charm in season 1 and was utterly blown away by the torrential onslaught of her loveliness. They say love is an action word so I made a list of ...
