I’ve never actually own any acrylic clocks before π€
I really need to dump extra stuff away so I can have space for this. And that Okita acrylic panel. Or really, just so I can have actual hallway instead of current half-blocked by stuff.

I really need to dump extra stuff away so I can have space for this. And that Okita acrylic panel. Or really, just so I can have actual hallway instead of current half-blocked by stuff.
In my personal record time of only three days to finish reading this.
There’s barely any breaks, tension is high almost all the time, the suspense forced me to just keep reading until the end.
The h-scenes are pretty nice as well although I did disable the animation. I did enable MC’s voice this time (as I didn’t notice I have it disabled last time). There’s noticeable lack of certain type of play though which a bit sad.
Spoilers ahead.
Continue readingAnd lastly the tapestry from Sofmap. This one has one of her nipples showing which is nice ( ‘_’)b
And knee-socks. And the all-black attire. Not sure about paw gloves. They do match the ear and tail though.
As I mentioned in the previous post, this one is quite a bit sharper. Probably as good as tapestry goes.
More from Yukiiro, this is the tapestry from Melonbooks. No nipples or anything for this one. A bit sad but Noa is cute so it’s fine.
Double suede as usual though the print could be a bit sharper. Considering the other tapestry seems to be printed by the same company but doesn’t have this problem, maybe it’s just the source? Or the bloom effect from sunlight? Not sure. It’s still pretty good anyway, and at least better than usual thin tapestries.
Two versions because I can. Or more like I kinda preferred the official store version but buying tapestry and drama CD from Sofmap is impossible without also buying the cover.
Thankfully the illustration seems fine this time. Or is it? I’ll find out whenever I open this… Or maybe just camp someone else’s blog who usually reviews this.
DFC sure is the best.
The long awaited final part of 9-nine- series. Bought off all the bonuses and stuff because it’s Noa.
Started playing already and it’s pretty good so far. Unlike the other routes, this one started completely differently.
As for the drama CDs, I haven’t even listened to the Haruiro ones… π€
Bonus photos inside.
Continue readingEroge day! New backlogs! Yay. This one is single route title by Akabeesoft2. A bit curious about the illustrator.
Not sure when I’ll get around playing this…
Almost forgot to write this post.
Sold some more stuff. At more loss. Almost 60%. Kinda sucks but it was mostly thanks to dakimakura. The value drop sure is more obvious in absolute term. Also it’s almost impossible to recover the price once used.
Not sure if I’ll put up more stuff anytime soon. Even though I really should.
It’s eroge day (yesterday)! Spent a lot of money! At least it was budgeted already so it’s mostly fine.
I’ll probably end up preordering pieces/Canary this month instead of next month. Nearby Melonbooks already has no early preorder shikishi anymore so that sucked ;_;
That will kind of mess up my budget. Looking again, it was probably a bad idea anyway waiting until the release month.
Talking about budget, there will be also this Seishun Sparking thing. As mentioned last time, it’ll cost me good money. Dropping Maitetsu LR goods will end up helping here.
Also at current rate, there might be nothing in summer? No Comiket at least. Denkigai… is a bit unknown. I heard some info about they’ll be held in summer. We’ll see.
It’s a mystery at this time. The trend is still going down but on some days it goes up quite a lot as well so that helped compensate the drop. Not by much though.
Another route done! Another one week. With this, only An route and extra scenario left for this title.
Continue readingAs I wondered last week, Saga Planets announced their new title today. Titled Kakenuke seishun sparking (they sure can use some HTTPS in 2020).
It looks like a rather normal school club story thingy. Kind of like Hanasaki, maybe? Except the protag this time seems to be workaholic and likes money.
The uniform design this time around is rather lewd. Navels everywhere. And then there’s Nagiko, sleeveless with probably sports bra? And gloves for some reason. And those tall shoes on thighhighs.
Heroines line up seems like the usual one DFC heroine, one DFC sub-heroine, and the rest are relatively big. Arisue Tsukasa is doing main heroine again this time and Toranosuke doing two. I sure am wondering who’s doing Kikka. It almost looks like Hontani Kanae but I’m not sure. Also for the not-blood-related-little sister Ritsu.
As for the stores, I’ll probably get at least Sofmap, Trader, Suruga-Ya, and Amiami. Hmmm RIP 40k. And maybe more if those unannounced γͺγͺγΈγγ«ηΉε ΈδΌη»δΈ are voice drama. That will kinda hurts. I sure wish that Amiami tapestry is also double suede. But it probably isn’t π We’ll find out next month. Or on release day.
It’s planned for August release. I guess I have a few months to prepare the budget. And maybe finish Kinkoi before this one is released.
Sold quite a few stuff this last weekend. At almost 50% loss. Yay π
As pictured above, I got a new system for my server! New motherboard (ASRock X570 Pro4) and new CPU (AMD Ryzen 3500), to be precise. I already have too many RAM sticks on my desktop (4x16GiB) so I took a pair off it and use it on the new server, saved me from having to spend more money on this. Details coming soon to the other blog. Maybe.
That said, I still need to eventually upgrade the RAM to ECC. Unfortunately the cheapest I could find costs about 30k for a pair of 16GiB for a total of 32GiB. It will take a while until I save enough for them.
Apart of that, I’m skipping Soraao this time because of the purchase above and just generally trying to spend on thing I really like instead of just stuff I may potentially like. Anime is especially worse in this regard as the second hand market is pretty big and it’s relatively easy getting cheap second hand copies.
Next week is already eroge week. Schedule-wise, I should be posting another finance post before then unless I went lazy mode again and hold off doing it until last minute like this one.
New “C98” stuff are also starting to come out as well. I have some budget for it but I’m not sure how much I’ll end up spending. Hopefully not too much.
That reminded me, I still need to pack stuff for Suruga-Ya.
Surprisingly only took a week. The story is pretty short so that’s probably why.
Continue readingMore dakimakura from Ikegami Akane. This one is supposed to be released during an event in February but ended up not happening thanks to the virus thing and then only arrived last week.
That said, the arrival for online order wasn’t actually too far off as I think it’s initially planned for end of March.
Anyway, it’s even more cover of Choco. This time being Valentine Choco (ha ha ha). Front side with exposed breasts and slid open panties, back side being naked with ribbons. She wears knee-socks on both sides which is great. Although the other side is only one side but still better than nothing.
Explicit drawing as usual and as visible from the photo, it’s Shiromoufu’s Hakuou. I have no complaints so far with it. If anything, they have the best zipper part as I mentioned last time.
It’s still available for purchase as well. There are still about 10 left in stock as I write this post.
Bonus photo, snippet of the middle part:
Continue reading0% loss this time yay. Except it was because I sold nothing.
Readjusted prices for stuff. Hopefully can sell something but with current economy it’ll probably be rather difficult regardless.
I suspect it’s better for me to start packing up stuff to be sent to Suruga-Ya.
Pre-ordered some stuff and although there are still some extras, there’s no telling how this month will go with all the new doujin stuff which are initially targeted for C98.
And then I still need to figure out what to do with Maitetsu LR. I’m actually now considering only buying single thing. Probably either Sofmap or Suruga-Ya and skip the rest of them. It’s just too expensive and considering I’m so far backlogged on that, I probably really should just get the minimum.
pieces/Canary for May (5 copies?), Torikago for June (4 copies), and lastly Maitetsu LR (1 copy?) for July. And that’s it? There’s nothing for August or later yet. Saga Planets may announce their new title soon-ish though.
I really need to read faster. And be less distracted.
These last two days have been closed at positive which is actually a bit annoying because I was too late buying some index fund which ended up costing quite a lot more than the price when I placed the order. I probably should’ve bought ETF instead.
Only took me two weeks. I actually thought it’s just a bit over a week but my record says it’s a bit over two weeks. Whoops.
As usual from my impression posts but especially for this one, spoilers ahead.
Continue readingThe overall route is similar to Natsume, just shorter. Too bad I don’t like her character design as much. The personality is relatively fine though.
Continue readingLast one from Kinkoi. Melonbooks tapestry for the VFB. I initially wrote bonus but I had to pay extra for this.
Pretty much the usual thin tapestry quality, print and material.
This is probably my first Sylvi tapestry.
I usually prefer smiling faces but for this one I prefer this version compared to the cover version. Embarrassed face is sometimes good, I guess. Skirt lifting is of course always welcome.
I’m not done yet with Kinkoi posts. Here’s another one, from same PS4 release. This one is tapestry of Reina.
I like her inviting expression. And that lifting up shirt. And the panties.
I originally intended to wait until the extra tapestries (which I can take the pipes from) arrived but I figured I should just open them anyway. I do have one extra previously used for another thing.
Thin material as usual. At least the print is okay.
It couldn’t be seen from the sample but Elle’s nipples are a bit visible.
This actually arrived a while back but from Getchu and they somehow sealed it so I figured I should just sell that one. And then I got another one from Melonbooks last week for a different bonus and it wasn’t sealed.
Continue readingThis thing arrived last week. It was up for pre-order at Suzuya’s Booth few months ago and I ended up buying it.
Double suede material with pretty good print.
I generally like Ryohka’s lolis. This one isn’t exception. Thankfully the background this time is a proper one unlike the one from few years ago. I just noticed they both have their privates bandaid’d, lol.
Not sure if a lot or few things happened this week. Also as I mentioned last week, this will be the last weekly digest post. Until I decide to revive it…?
At 250 weekly posts it means I’ve done this for almost 5 years. Time sure flies…
I… still haven’t finished that Cafe Stella post ,_,
The C98 one has a bit too many characters in it resulting in rather tiny image.
I prefer the one pictured above from CT35.
I’m not sure if that’s a mosaic censor or just a bit blurred.
Material is double suede (yay) and they cost 3800 yen each. The shipping is 730. Pre-order ends next weekend.
Yet another C98 stuff is up for pre-order.
It did tickle my fancy (loli, naked, ribbon). Just not enough to actually make me buy it. Also the lens effect feels a bit too much for me.
It’s that time of the month again. Kinda like Yukie and Fumuyun. And Hoshi. Too bad the last two use thin suede material.
That’s quite something. Too bad it’s “all ages”.
Then I looked at the price. Lol 15k.
Also I sure wish people keep kneesocks on for both sides.
Quite a few items were sold this week. With a rather big loss as well unfortunately at 40%. Oh well, better than nothing.
With this, I have less than 40 items remaining to be sold. The lowest since a while, I believe.
And I still have not decided on what else to sell yet.
Thanks to the YJA, I got some spares left for this month. Although considering it’s almost May anyway I’ll probably end up doing pre-orders next month if the budget permits.
With C98 out of window, I’m not sure how to budget April/May for the doujinshi. It’ll probably end up a bit more expensive than usual. And then of course there’s still pieces/Canary on May. And Maitetsu LR on July.
Oh and on Maitetsu LR, I’m skipping Tech Gian’s drama CDs. I’ll probably regret it? Maybe? But it’s Lose – they tend to re-release previous drama CDs somehow in one form or another. Not that I’m currently lacking in drama CDs anyway.
And then with Cabbit’s Kagitori delayed to June, my eroge purchases for April is now down to 9-yukiiro and Denshi otome. Shouldn’t be too bad.
Now I think about it, I can probably cancel my current Getchu order for that Kagitori and reorder it together with Onigyu anime for cheaper shipping.
There’s Melonbooks C98 (RIP) tapestries as well but I’ll probably skip them completely. Getting that Tomose Shunsaku tapestry or some other ones is rather tempting but I think I’ll pass. There isn’t really anything outstanding and with the book itself delayed it’ll be slightly more expensive getting the extra stuff.
And lastly, I almost completely forgot about it but I also need to slip in some budget for more dual ports 10GbE cards and new Ryzen setup for my server.
Hmm, looking again, this will be a bit difficult.
Somehow the indexes went up these last two (work) days. It’ll probably go down again this week. I’m not holding my breath.
I forgot to post this. It arrived sometime last week.
It’s the usual calendar bonus from buying all the character songs. Due to timing etc, this one starts from April. Sometimes called “school calendar” as that’s when new academic year starts.
Unlike the previous ones, this one doesn’t have plastic case/stand. Probably due to a lot of them were broken during shipment for Riddle Joker. It’s also twice larger.
As before, it’s two-monthly calendar per page, six pages total. Four of them are newly drawn and the other two are generic all-characters images.
And now I have a bit too many calendars.
Even more Kinkoi tapestry. Heck, even more Ria.
Same thin material. The print is fine as well.
Knee-socks! Under wears! Cat ears and tail!
I really should get around playing this.
So, uh, I ended up getting this anyway.
If only it’s double suede. It’s not. It’s the usual thin suede material instead. Oh well. The print quality is fine.
I actually prefer this one instead of the even-more-naked version. And the background is still unfortunately rather boring.
