There are actually 2 Blu-ray movies which I purchased but I’m too lazy and tired to take pictures to show you :P.

Part 3

A cookie to anyone who knows why I bought the magazine.. The answer is on the cover.. lol.

Some bonus CD that came with infinite synthesis album from fripSide. Haven’t checked it out yet!

NANOHA BLU-RAY!!!!!!!! I am so excited about this particular loot. The only part which I hate in the entire movie is Nanoha using Starlight Breaker on Fate. It hurts. And it hurts me more in 1080p -_-.

Lots of goodies in my Limited Edition copy of the Blu-ray.

Nana Mizuki Blu-ray! I look forward to her concert release yearly. Really love LIVE GAMES. AWESOME!

Freebies that came with the Blu-rays. Pictures of Nana-chan!!

Looking at all the loot pictures of 2010, I have to say I spent quite a lot ._.

This OAD will be bundled in the 42nd volume of the Aa Megami-sama manga which will be released on 23 February 2011. Wow this has been such a long series. It will be celebrating it’s 22nd year in 2011! I remember watching the OVA during grade school and really enjoyed it! When I grew older and learnt there is a movie and TV series, I watched those too. With that said, I’m definitely not gonna miss this OAD!


“everlasting” by fripSide

As you can see in the video the theme song is “everlasting” by fripSide, which is included in their latest album: “infinite synthesis”. It is available now, so you can head over to CDJapan and choose between the Regular Edition or Limited Edition.

]]> http://zotaku.com/2010/10/11/fripside-future-gazer-13-10-10/feed/ 2 CDs Loot: Yui Horie, YUI, Railgun and K-ON!, Also Seiyuu Magazines http://zotaku.com/2010/06/28/cds-loot-yuihorie-yui-railgun-and-k-on-also-seiyuu-magazines/ http://zotaku.com/2010/06/28/cds-loot-yuihorie-yui-railgun-and-k-on-also-seiyuu-magazines/#comments Mon, 28 Jun 2010 00:13:25 +0000 zenical http://zotaku.com/?p=7941 Here are more loots which I obtained earlier this month. YUI to Mother single was out on 2 June 2010, and of course as a huge fan of her I had to preorder the single ^^. Tagged along more CDs in order to save on shipping ^^.

The list of CDs in this loot

  • K-ON!! ED – Listen!! [Limited Editon]
  • YUI – to mother [w/DVD, Limited Edition]
  • fripside – only my railgun [Regular Edition]
  • Yui Horie – Rakuen [Regular Edition]

A total of 3 singles and 1 album. Been a big fan of the Toaru Kagaku no Railgun songs ever since I caught the anime, hence I love both the OPs used in the anime, as you can see, a few months back I bought the Level 5 single(OP2). Got too late into the Railgun madness, hence wasn’t able to obtain Limited Edition of “only my railgun”. So I delayed my purchase of the single until now ^^”

Hocchan album was really just something I got along with the order. I think I still have 1-2 albums left to purchase.. ^^ And then my Hocchan Shrine would be completed!

Picked up 2 Seiyuu Magazines this time round because they were featuring Hocchan in it… Seiyuu Animedia didn’t have much on her, but I did get some postcards of her in the magazine!! Woot!

Sphere seems to be pretty popular these days. By the way Sphere has Aki Toyosaki, VA of Hirasawa Yui in K-ON!

Ah.. So pretty~~ :D
