Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog. Sorry for the huge break. I’ve had a lot on including planning my holiday to Japan which I am leaving for tomorrow, so expect loads of photo’s and talk about it when i get back on the 29th. To start off with todays triple post, I would like to inform you all about a Forum that me and some friends of mine have set up. It’s called Otaku Kakumei which means Otaku Revolution. Judging by the name I know that you can all tell what It’s about already. Everything Otaku! At first It was just a way for my circle of friends and I to keep in touch with our friend Robert( Proud owner of Nandeman),who left for Japan on Sunday for a whole 5 months. But then we got to thinking and have made It one big forum.

We only have a few members at the moment but in the future we would love hundreds, even thousands of members come together and ramble on all day about various Otaku hobbies. So, if your interested, head over to Otaku Kakumei and sign up ASAP! xD

D.C.II.P.S ( Da Capo II Plus Situation )

August 4, 2007 at 10:55 am | Posted in Bishoujo, Games | 4 Comments

 Was doing poking around on Kadokawa Shoten this morning and came across details on a new visual novel game for the PS2. This one is a remake of the the 2006 PC game D.C.II (Da Capo II). The reason why it interested me so much was because I began watching the anime of D.C ( Da Capo ) and recently heard news about D.C.II being made into an anime.

The remake of D.C.II is to be called D.C.II.P.S ( Da Capo II Plus Situation ). Judging by the name, I’m assuming it will have scenario’s the original PC Eroge didn’t have or some sort of extra content. Since I haven’t played the PC game I’m not too sure of the story but I do know it set a number of years after D.C and is set on the same island,Hatsunejima, the island where cherry blossoms are always in bloom. The bishoujo in the game are some of the best I’ve seen, my favourite being Shirokawa Nanaka (pink haired girl). D.C.II.P.S is due for release some time in 2008 (what a wait) and is being handeled by Circus who made D.C , D.C.II as well as its fan discs. If you want more information or want to look at the lovley bishoujo you will be chatting up in the game, head over to either the D.C.II.P.S Webpage or the D.C.II Webpage.

I leave you with wondeful CG’s from the PC version.

Another Figure for you all this morning. This one is Alter’s Tsuruya San (Maid Ver) Figure. Will retail for about 5,500 JPY and is to released in November of tis year ^ ^ Just Pre-ordered her from HLJ so I’m pretty excited ( She’s also my favourite Haruhi character). There needs to be more Tsuruya figures!. Alter really have amazed me recently what with Exelica and a number of other figures in thier line up. Also I want to ask, what figures are all of you planning on buying from now until the end of the year?

                                                                 

Trigger Heart Exelica Figure

Upon surfing the vast information super highway commonly known as interweb, I stumbled across a new figure being produced by Alter. The figure is of Exelica from the Dreamcast Shooter, Trigger Heart Exelica. Never played this game in my life, neither do I know anything about the characters but, what I do know is that this figure looks amazing. I’ve been wowed by a fair few figures this year but Exelica stands out as one of the best I’ve seen. I haven’t been able to find a concrete release date, some sites say December and some October but It’s safe to say that Exelica will be gracing our shelves come Q4 2007. Retailing at around 15,000 JPY, she’s up for pre-order as of today , although I can’t find any english sites where this is possible. As soo as I do, I will update this post but for now, enjoy the brilliant photographs courtesy of Warashi.

Japan Trip

August 2, 2007 at 6:44 am | Posted in Japan | 1 Comment

Never thought I’d been saying this so soon, but I wanted to do a post informing readers that I’m going to Japan at the end of August. I will be going on the 22nd and will be coming back on the 29th. Along with the people I am travelling with, I will be staying in Tokyo ( still need to book the hotel but the district will most likley be shinjuku ). By some luck we managed to get cheap flights thanks to someone in the family who works for British Airways and eventually, through months of perstering my folks, got the go ahead. During that week, all posts will stop but I plan on doing loads of posts about my trip when I get back ^ ^

Capcom Polls

August 2, 2007 at 6:33 am | Posted in Games | Leave a comment

 

Since all of you readers are Otaku I assume you play videogames and are familiar with Capcom’s brilliant Megaman franchise. I’m a big fan of Megaman, especially the EXE. series so when I found this poll I was pretty excited and thought I’d share It with you all. Capcom have decided they want us, the fans, to decide what platform we would like to see a future Megaman game on. I suppose when the results are in, they will get to work on making a new Megaman game on the most popular platform. Comes to no suprise that the Wii is winning and the PS3 is struggling, as is the Xbox 360. Seems that in Japan, Nintendo rule to gaming industry. If you would like to vote, just head over to Capcoms official Rockman Webpage .
