From Tsukuru no Mori (aka Tora no Ana Group). I’ve been avoiding them because it’s usually censored stuff. Including this one.
But hey, exception exists ( ๏พ ใฎ๏พ)a
This is also my first tapestry illustrated by Koutaro. Quite to my liking. The combination of things – face, expression, post, size, etc. Although it would’ve been better uncensored.
One noticeable thing though – there’s some chromatic aberration effect going on here. It seems to be common thing with the illustrator so I suspect it’s intentional (or that’s the how original data is).
The material isn’t specified on the product page but thankfully it’s double suede. The pipe is a bit thin though which is worrying. It’s already a bit bent even. Otherwise the print is rather hard to judge the actual sharpness. It does seem a bit upscaled so that’s unfortunate.
Still on Coming Humming. Wait, that’s almost two months now. I should speed up my reading. Or at least actually read things.
This Month Release
Oh hey today is release day. And I have nothing here.
Next Month and Beyond
Sakutoki in November is still the closest one. I also still haven’t preordered it.
Kind of tempted with Iroseka HD and ASaProject Anniversary Box. But considering I’ll probably never get around to that I’ll pass on for now and maybe check again once I clear up my back logs.
Just announced yesterday, the detail on Hatsusaku Anniversary Box has been announced. Unfortunately there’s no remaster or anything. If I count the old stuff as costing 8k, it’s 10k for tapestry (not specified but better be double suede here), acrylic panel (missing size detail; I expect at least A4 or B5), and voice drama. The voice drama was unexpected but welcome. Everyone is doing ASMR nowadays it seems. That said, it’s still rather expensive overall. I’ll probably still grab it anyway. I nuked all my Saga Planets budget but it should recover on time for its December release.
Lastly, according to Russel’s homepage, there will be soundtrack box or pieces and Unless Terminalia. And then there’s an accompanying tapestry. I don’t know if I’ll get the tapestry but I may get at least the soundtrack. This one is coming up November.
It’s been a lot of blank months and I would’ve done pretty good in term of budgeting and saving had I not finally decide to replace my rather gross 9 years old futons (three layers of them) with a fancy bed. Not fancy in term of appearance but in that it opens up like car trunk/frunk for more storage \o/ I’m expecting a lot from it to free up my room space.
Finished Ambitious Mission. At a bit over a month it’s still too slow. That said, I’m three weeks in to Coming x Humming and I haven’t even finished a single route lol.
Back to Anmitsu, it was pretty fun. Thankfully I picked what I would consider the ideal route orders. Lots of random references were fun especially the Conan and Kindaichi ones. I should’ve kept count on how many variations of ใใฃใกใใใฎๅใซใใใฆ there are. The ability of Sharu is pretty ridiculous as well. Anyone looking for serious story will probably be disappointed but I think this worked pretty well as a gag title. The serious part is relatively well handled as well but I think the whole key thing is a bit too weird. Same with the universe thing. Not to mention they hinted on some story on the other part but it was just left at that. On the brighter side it opens path for fandisk or alternative story or whatever. I’m not holding my breath but more Anmitsu is welcome. Especially more Yae and Kaguya. Also Tsubame and Horoko.
As mentioned above, I’m currently reading Coming x Humming. It was chosen for no particular reason apart of it was chosen at random (like, order by random() on my eroge list table). This will be a very long journey at four whole titles. Once I’m done with this, I’ll have read all modern Saga Planets title. I don’t know if I can handle their earlier titles. I can even barely deal with Coming x Humming artstyle and the earlier ones are even less of my preferences.
This Month Release
Nothing! Yay.
Next Month and Beyond
The closest one is still Sakutoki in November.
And then Palette finally updated the Mashifoni FHD and Sana Edition. Thankfully both are proper eroge so yay. Planned for 2023 so those are still quite far away.
On the other hand, there’s still no news from Yuzusoft…
Back to Kaguya. Another one with her thief costume. This one has got skirt. Still no hat though.
If only she’s got kneesocks…
Otherwise it’s the usual Kaguya goodness. I thought I’d prefer the non-R18 expression on the magazine but looking again, I like her eyes here better. All good, I guess.
Material is double suede. Thankfully no permanent crease which tend to exist on tapestry from Moeoh. The print quality is pretty good as well although I think the source image resolution could be a bit better.
It’s Yae time! In her, uh, does this still count as ninja costume. I guess it does with bandana and muffler. And the kneesock on one side and bondage on the other.
I think her expression could be better but otherwise I like it.
Just like the other two, no problem in print quality and also uses double suede material.
Another one. I thought it’s the same lewder version of the official one but this one’s got panties, nipple cover (except slid up), and gloves (yay). Gloves are good mmm. No hats here though.
And as I write this I realized both of her tapestries are of her in thief costume.
Still on double suede (thankfully, as the other one from Sofmap which I don’t care uses thin material), and pretty good print quality. And as mentioned in the other post, this one is a bit more saturated.
It’s from Anmitsu. It’s Kaguya. I think it’s been since Workspring I actually want the main girl stuff from Saga Planets title (although I did end up selling most of Inori stuff in the end ๐).
But anyway, it’s Miss Arte except lewder than usual. Just like her other tapestries.
It’s double suede material and the print is pretty good. Interestingly it’s less saturated compared to other tapestries of her.
Aokana done (again)! I jumped straight to Anmitsu as originally planned. And apparently I never end up posting the new stuff. I’ll get around doing that one of these days.
As for the progress, I’m around halfway Yae route. I did Nijimu first and it was… short. It had some interesting infodump stuff but overall it was relatively smooth sailing.
Current Yae is a bit more involved with multiple layers of problems. I guess it’s a good thing I’m doing Kaguya last in term of overall story reveal.
Once done, I have about five short titles in queue:
Which I’ll probably play in that exact order above. I just need to get rid of finish them already.
This Month Release
Doutei Kyoudai as mentioned above is the only thing I’m getting this month. Thankfully it’s got no DRM crap on it which is the main thing I worried about.
Next Month and Beyond
This is really more like just Beyond since there’s nothing for me for next month.
The closest I may be getting is probably Iroseka HD in September. Maybe.
There’s nothing in October and then Sakutoki in November. Assuming it’s not delayed (ha).
Palette finally announced the Mashifoni FHD remake and Sana Edition. Neither have concrete info so far and there’s some chance they’ll be all ages stuff. Which means run awayyyyyyyyyy.
Zwei Trigger is a thing but I don’t know if I want. I don’t find the character design particularly interesting but it’s written by Kazuki Fumi from 9nine (among others).
Full title is “Maina to Miyuki no Naisho no Houkago”
And then another one! This time with Miyuki for semi docking position. Too bad kneesocks are missing this time around. Inviting look is just my favorite expression ๐ Combined with skirt lifting and nopan, making them most excellent.
After reading the title and looking at the image, I noticed that the “red thread” is a leash instead of ribbon on pinke ๐
Also the photo is kind of blurry after looking it closer. The creases aren’t going to be gone because I’m not ironing B1 tapestries. Or maybe I will if I get annoyed enough by it.
Back to the image itself, it’s been a very long time since my last tapestry by Miwa Futaba. The previous one was in 2014 for Hakoniwa Logic Goodwill tapestry (since sold). It’s also her last eroge title she did.
I just like the overall composition. Especially her expression, the heart on her eyes, the mysterious liquid on her fingers, and of course kneesocks. It’s being quite explicit also helped.
There are quite a few variations of this although there’s only one for B1. I think this is the best one which has the important bits exposed but still “wearing” sweater. I also prefer B1 size so it works out all right.
The material is double suede and the print quality is pretty sharp ๐
…I’m still at Aokana. Whoops. I’ll get to Ambitious Mission once done and then back to Aokana Extras.
I was hoping to clear Anmitsu before end of this month but that probably won’t happen. It’s mainly so I can better answer the survey things they’re having.
I should also get around posting the new stuff from last month. Probably around end of this month.
This Month Release
Nothing for this month. There’s the new title from Lump of Sugar but I don’t think I need to rush getting their stuff anytime soon.
Next Month and Beyond
Sister Position first release is planned for next month. Unfortunately there’s no information whether or not it’ll involve PlayDRM or other kind of DRM. I hope there’s none because otherwise I may not be getting it. Which would be mildly annoying as I bought the just-released voice drama of it. Maitetsu didn’t have any but the previous two did so there’s no clear pattern here.
On other news, Saga Planets is having poll for Anmitsu dakimakura cover. Uniform and costume would be nice so I hope those two get chosen for both Kaguya and Yae.
Still on Saga Planets, Anmitsu Complete Soundtrack has been announced as well. Release date will be end of August and the cover (and probably tapestry) will be of Kaguya and someone else yet to be announced (considering the previous ones). Yae would be nice although in the end it’ll depend on the image regardless on which version I’ll be getting.
Done with Clarias F. It turned out the skip history is still there, it just didn’t work on new/modified sections as expected. The extra story ended up being quite a thing. Especially the last hidden route.
There’s still the extra thing to be cleared but I don’t think it involves any kind of story. It’s also pretty difficult.
It just hit me but Asuka’s mom is kind of ใคใใ
With that done I was hoping to finish Aokana Perfect Edition and Aokana Extra 1 before the Extra 2 release next week but I have my doubt on me finishing it on time. I just hope I can at least clear Aokana before Friday and do the rest next month or something. Ambitious Mission will probably take priority.
This Month Release
Aokana Extra 2 as mentioned above. No interesting store bonus so I’m getting mine from Amazon.
Similarly for Hokecho. She’s just too big. On related note, it’s only two months apart from Hokeloli whereas Hokejo was released November 2020 which is over one year apart.
And lastly of course Ambitious Mission. I’m getting it from a few stores for all the Kaguya and Yae. I just hope the story won’t be too boring. I don’t expect it to exceed Kinkoi but it will be a nice surprise if it does.
Next Month and Beyond
There’s… nothing. Well, almost, there’s Sakutoki but it’s not only still half a year apart (and that’s before including potential delays), the bonus illustrations aren’t up yet either so there’s no way to decide which store to buy it from.
I don’t think there’s anything else interesting to me coming up. Maybe the Cabbage Soft’s Jewelry Hearts Academia but I should finish Sakuretto first and then Amazing Grace before even considering the upcoming title.
I actually completely forgot about this one. According to how the plastic bag it comes in, I tried opening the seal but gave up halfway as I needed to cut it with scissors or knife if I want to keep the bag. Welp. I haven’t even added the entry to my tapestries list.
So here I opened it finally. Only took a bit over two months.
It’s Chiemi and Touko. My favorite couple in the series. Now I look closer the background doesn’t quite make sense if it’s an actual city. Whatever, lol. I hope they’re not frozen to death with that kind of clothing. Maybe the heat they’ll generate is enough to compensate ๐
Ameto Yuki needs to draw more less balloon characters…
As for print quality, it’s pretty good. And the material is double suede.
And here’s the reason I bought the game. I don’t know when I’ll get around actually playing this ๐
Nice pose, with fingers covering thing. I do prefer her to wear kneesocks on both legs instead of one but that’s her design so there’s no way around that, I guess.
I just like this kind of face especially when drawn by Takano Yuki. Similar reason for the other tapestry I bought few weeks ago.
Print quality is good and with double suede material which is quite rare for a Circus release if I remember correctly.
Finished Shugaten! That was quite something. Mainly the Koori route. And the epilogue. I sure wish I realized the final reveal way earlier because it was so stupid ๐
Afterwards, I went on to Hokejo as mentioned last month. I finished it in a bit less than two weeks and then Hokeloli in around two weeks.
Hokejo/Hokeloli when not in story mode. Too bad next one won’t have this anymore
Hokejo had some surprises in term of how the route is structured. I also quite liked the latter part.
Hokeloli continued with similar formula but there’s fewer surprising reveal towards the end due to having seen how Hokejo worked and there were just way more hints spread out in the earlier parts. Still pretty good overall I think.
Hokecho is coming out next month. It’ll probably be the shortest of the three.
With that done, I decided to finally check Senkou no Clarias F. Unfortunately the read history is missing so skip function doesn’t work but I think I’ll just go over them all again quickly or something. I did finish reading the extra H scenes first. Those were pretty short with no extra story. Still a nice extra though ๐
This Month Release
So I ended up getting DC4SH. I bought the DC4PH as well for rather cheap. Bought the SH from Melonbooks. The tapestry was the main reason I got it in the end.
On the other hand, RIP Futakoi. Maybe once I cleared my backlog more.
Next Month and Beyond
Aokana Extra 2 and Ambitious Mission next month. Both are still waiting for RTM so there’s still possibility either of them being delayed. That said, Aokana Extra 2 dev team said they’re aiming for it sometime next week and Saga Planets don’t usually delay their releases. We’ll see.
Oh, right, there’s also Hokecho next month. I guess I should place preorder sometime soon. I don’t know where to buy them from yet though. Amazon is the usual place when I’m not getting any bonuses but they don’t have any discount for it… yet? I’ll wait one or two weeks, otherwise I may just get it from nearby Sofmap.
Now I think about it, I should check Aokana as well. And its soundtrack (also Hokejo’s).
After May, there isn’t much yet. Sakura no Toki is supposed to be out in November but it’s still so far away. Not to mention it’ll probably be delayed even further.
There’s also Jewelry Hearts Academia thing from Cabbage Soft. I don’t know about that one yet. Maybe if I manage to finish Sakuretto first. And Amazing Grace.
This was partially an impulse buy. That expression is just too good for me ๐ I saw it on Twitter (as it’s finally the release day) and fortunately (or unfortunately) Amazon still had some in stock so I decided to just finally buy it.
Makes a good pairing with this one except I don’t have actual space to put them side by side. I’ll have to figure out that one for maximum goodness.
I noticed it a bit later but her right leg doesn’t seem quite right because the folded lower part isn’t visible anywhere but I’ll let it slide (also I hope I didn’t destroy the image for you too much ๐).
It’s double suede with relatively okay print quality. I’ve gotten around accepting this after a while with the similar quality Muririn tapestry. Unfortunately there’s a slight fold mark here as well but at least it’s not easily visible.
But at least thighs and kneesocks which is why I bought this. I like her expression as well. I wonder if the costume will appear in the game. Probably not.
Material is double suede and print quality is find and pretty sharp as usual. No complaint there.
Now where’s my winter Kikka tapestry… (May because ordered together with the new game to save shipping)
And then the other eroge released this month I got. I don’t know why she’s naked for the cover when Hokejo was relatively wholesome. On semi related note the cover for next chapter (student council president) is only half naked instead.
I’m still reading through the first one so it’ll take a few more days before I start reading this.
As can be seen from the photo above, bought from all the stores (which I should get around posting the tapestries soon).
Also got one dakimakura cover. Although as I mentioned elsewhere, I’m not sure if I like the overall design here. The front side is too covered and the other side is not the front but back pose instead. Why :(
I’m holding my decision so the full photo will come later (or never). Or maybe just check here.
And I haven’t even started on pieces yet which apparently related to this series as well. It will take a while until I finally read this…
Bought from all the stores which have voice drama DLC.
For some reason I didn’t get the shikishi from the two physical stores. Either that or I got them but forgot where I stored them. That said the shikishi was printed in interesting way – the paper is way smoother than the usual paper used for shikishi. The closest thing I can think of is sticker paper.
Oh well, not like it’s got that much additional value anyway. Also it’s easier to sell just the game package especially as the box is small enough it fits the cheaper shipping method.
Well that was a thing. I didn’t actually plan on getting this but I ended up linking the art style for the anime better than the original manga. Also yuri actions are always welcome. Interestingly only Kaede got actual sex this episode with Suzu main assisting (although technically she started both parts).
As usual with this kind of release, the total runtime is 56 minutes with half of it are just ads. Actual thing only go for like 25 minutes.
The thing! It comes in usual DVD tall case except that’s mousepad functioning as overlay cover. The actual thing is underneath it and the mousepad itself is, well, mousepad. A bit too tiny.
Also, it’s 2022. Why are they still releasing it on DVD.
So, um, I probably should write this post after the game itself but I just have something to say about this specific tapestry.
So it looks like this on the game website:
Which seemed weird considering she’s on a sofa and looks like it should be landscape instead.
And here’s how it looks like on the store page:
And I thought that makes more sense and maybe the one on the game page is just wrong.
But nope. It’s portrait orientation for some reason. That’s weird.
Orientation aside, it’s just her on sofa naked with kneesocks and gloves on (good). This is one of the two with nothing covering her crotch. They made some interesting (?) variations there.
Nice expression as well. Again, too bad it’s not landscape.
As for print quality, it’s using double suede material with the print… mostly fine if not slightly blurry. Could definitely be sharper. This also applies to all the tapestries from this release.
Also I don’t usually comment on it but the stitches aren’t quite straight. I don’t usually care about it but I saw someone who put attention on it and unfortunately this one is the one with sloppier stitching. Just as print quality, same thing with all other tapestries but with varying degrees of straightness.
Since I’m ending the Weekly Finance thing, I figured this should do in its place. And maybe with more individual posts instead of collecting them up weekly.
Progress So Far
Too bad she doesn’t get route =[
This month will see Hokeloli release but I still haven’t even started on Hokejo.
I’m still stuck at Shugaten since mid January although I think it should end soon. FGO box event and challenge quest slowed things down. So did playing YGO Master Duel. Hopefully I can end it quickly and continue to Hokejo as initially planned. I took days off for this although progress has been slow so far (as usual).
This Month Release
And mentioned in earlier posts I preordered Hokeloli and Unless Terminalia. There’s also Aokana Extra 2 but it got delayed to May.
Hokeloli as mentioned above I plan to finish reading Hokejo before release day and then continue with Hokeloli on release day.
As for Unless Terminalia, I’m still backlogged on Pieces (original and its sequel) so I don’t know when I’ll get around reading it.
Next Month and Beyond
There’s nothing on April although I’m still on and off on DC4 and Futakoi. If anything I’ll get them later once I clear up my backlog which kind of sounds like never.
And then on May there will be Aokana Extra 2 and Ambitious Mission. Preorders are placed and all that’s left is waiting and picking them up and stuff.
Despite what I said last week, still nothing! Maybe this week I will finally do it.
Out
I didn’t buy any goods but I watched a bunch of movies. And then I bought all the Blue Thermal things (manga and theme song CD). In the end they all costed a bit over 10k total.
Thankfully I overbudgeted my utility bill this month and it helped balancing things out.
Except it wasn’t quite enough. Welp.
Future Out
Nothing particularly interesting came up so far, thankfully.
There’s also mignon stuff. Nothing I really want though. Also it looks like there will be some censoring involved. And dicks do not want.
I’m short 12k from my target this month so I still need to figure out how to fix it. Or maybe just actually sell those unused PC parts or something. And other things.
Investments
28.78% normal account and <fill in iDeCo number here later> iDeCo closing last week. Still going down as expected…
At two weeks now it sure sucks. No end in sight yet either.
…I probably should move this series to private as there isn’t much to talk anymore :<
