I personally felt it bore much more resemblance to Requiem from the Darkness, though not nearly as disturbing. …

Finally the day I have been counting down to – Our 1st Year Anniversary! It has been a long journey for me, bluesnow and M. We started back in 2007 but didn’t get to celebrate our “1 year of being together” because I switched everything over to zotaku and well, by then it was August, already past our “1 year” date. Aww.

We had our tiny celebration just 2 weeks ago with our 1st Figurine Giveaway, with winner phossil of animoe.net walking away with a figma sponsored by Hobby Search. ^^
