Nanoha Takamachi. What am I going to do about you? Are you really worth 10,857¥?
I was being so good… so far January marks a record low for my preordering habits… leave it to GSC to announce a 1/4 scale beauty for preorder…

Time for a review of an older figure… Not exactly the review I’d hoped for for NC Japan’s Dark Elf but it’ll have to do for now. (no nudity but I suppose nsfw due to the revealing nature of her outfit? meh, ‘course in that case I should put nsfw warnings on all the pantsu shots… hmmm actually that makes sense ^^;;)
Trying out the white satin… left a bit to be desired. Well, actually in the above pic I didn’t mind it so much… some of the later shots… err well you’ll see. On with the review!

Two things I shoulda taken care of a long time ago:
1. A domain! Been considering a lot of things figured I better snag one I liked before everything was taken.
2. To match the domain, a new name for this blog!
I assume not too many actually knew what the heck the previous name was ( いつも いつでも いつまでも – itsumo itsudemo itsumademo – always, wherever, forever). As such, I don’t think many associated this blog with that name, especially with my much more recognizable handle, meronpan ^^;

Was testing out some slight tweaks to my review set up and ended up doing a full review… (warning, full cast off, nsfw!)
Nanael + new background! Lovelyduckie’s recent acquisition reminded me it was about time to make some progress on my review setup… Headed over to… Joann fabric & craft ^^;; Never thought I’d walk into one of those stores by myself -_- Was hard to guess how the different fabrics would behave as backgrounds… some seemed too thin, others seemed like the light might reflect weirdly… Wish I could take my camera and try all the different options ^^; In the end I walked out with some black and white satin. What do you use for backgrounds?

Hey, yeah, remember these posts? Lesson 3, only… about 3 months after lesson 2? ^^;;;;
On the off chance you’ve been faithfully following along, note that we’ll be picking up the pace a little from here on~
This week we’ll be covering 15 new kana – the s, t, and n characters!

Hyakko love! Thanks to all for the input on my last post… with that in mind, posts will be spoiler free unless otherwise noted.
To all those that have seen hyakko, share wha’cha love! To those that haven’t, hopefully this will sway you one way or the other~
When it comes to slice of life shows, I generally evaluate them by two simple criteria – characters and chemistry between said characters. Sooo, let’s see how hyakko stacks up.

Had finally been building up some steam with regular posts but a trip home last weekend kinda killed that. As such, just a little babbling about what I’m planning on posting in the nearsome future…

In a rare stroke of luck, the postman arrived earlier than usual and my roommate was home to receive a package for me. 一体何でしょう? (What could it be?!) 見ての通り!(As you can see…!)
Signum, Ritter des schwetes! Ich kann nicht verstehen Deutsch… Ist die “Ritter des schwertes” grammatisch korrekt? ^^;; Sorry, hopefully google translate hasn’t led me astray. If you’re wondering why I’m so often insterting random languages… it’s because I love learning new languages! ^^; *ahem* SIGNUM. Sorry, yes, let’s proceed with the Signum review.

Three things today.
1.) Fauna到着
Fauna arrived! Actually arrived earlier… but after picking her up from the post office… I left her at the office ;_;

aka 門を開く者アリス ブースと Ver. for the Japanese inclined ^_^
Seems that Hobby Japan was behind this release, though unfortunately that meant mail order exclusivity for this Alter beauty. Kid Nemo was convinced that they could obtain some and I had originally ordered from them… whether or not they would’ve delivered remains a mystery for me for as soon as Tokyo Hunter posted one up for auction I snatched her up. Appears that the ultra pink version is also up for preorder if you’re into that ^_^
No cast off but if you’re familiar with the character design, you know Alice isn’t shy about sharing her pantsu with the world. Nsfw for most ^^;
