Well I was just watching my imouto Natsukawa Shiina stream video games and talking about her revival Pre-2nd album live (while forgetting to stop 10 minutes after the extra paid segment which was free because niconico is down since this week for *prays* who knows how long) so taking inspiration from that for the title. You're welcome, Nan. *dabs*
ANYWAYS, summer is already here why would I write like it hasn't come yet considering this place is an oven since two months ago lol, STILL could not compare to the last time I was this hype which was like, last month. *giggles* Nonetheless, the monthly motivation is here and despite this missing the delivery at home WITH TWO PEOPLE AROUND *ugh*, hey at least I work near my home now so I just went to the post office to do this and placed it at home before going back to work. *dabs* Not going to share with my colleagues what goodness is in this, no. *laughs*
Now that it's here and my rants are far from over, let's talk about what should have been last month's package part 2?
But before that, I have to talk about how I went to pick up the package at noon today at the post office with a queue why are people not working I suppose people are here to buy stuff from Japan and then bring home to do a F**KING UNBOXING DUDE haha gotcha
Oh boy, my local post office, what did you do to this "fragile" package? |
Thank you, excessive padding, saving packages coming in from Japan every month. *giggles* |
What it looks like without padding |
Oh hey, Rieri. *giggles* |
Hmm these should be Ten-chan... |
... and these guys areΒ JK streamers. *laughs* |
Hey, we have seen you last month. *giggles* |
Oh, I suppose we can talk about the postcards first |
Yeah I think we can group all of these together into their groups, but yeah if I did this in the MusicRay'n Mall Valentine's Day campaign I would get not uniquely photographed postcards and that is why I took this long to care but for good reason, these are TrySail and Amamiya Sora live tour goods!! It's not just postcard sets, mind you, I did buy a couple of Ten-chan badges too (in sets of 2 apparently) from her recent live and they aren't exactly unique it's literally ripped off from the recent album and single lol, but hey, this is the only thing that has images of them that aren't just bromide photos because the talent company and music label hates us fans, that's why. *sob* It's fine though, and that's why I do this once in a while, but for better reason this time around since it's bundled with something else. We'll talk about that in a bit later.
Oh shit one of the Ten-chan postcards has a written message? Well, printed, so meh. *laughs*
If I had to choose between cute or sexy Ten-chan... Mocho. *laughs* (TEN-CHAN NO NO NO I AM JOKING) |
Okay I'm right these are Ten-chan badges. The lineup includes hand drawn ones, by the way. |
Let's do this again, 0 out of 0 duplicates so far, good. *giggles* |
Shout out to 20-year-old parquet wood floor ruined by chairs with wheels (lol) |
*gets National Service flashbacks* |
What was I doing? Oh yeah, more not bromide photos. *laughs* Yeah, contrary to what was in the previous review, here we have some MusicRay'n 3rd Generation event postcards!! They have like, monthly physical events to squeeze as much money as possible from their already limited fanbase (lol) so I'm not going to talk about all of them, but this one from last year was worth mentioning because they sold photos again!! Well, technically, the last time we talked about them it was an actual stack of bromide photos. *silence* ANYWAYS, I felt like this will be a good time to rank them again after all these years, so Kokona-chan. *giggles* She has been getting me with all her social media postsΒ she has a great character too, I'll tell you that much. Otherwise I don't think the ranking changed f**k you Mirai-chan lmao
This is essentially what it looked like at a stayover with club mates when I was their age- |
Oh dammit I should've put them in a way so I can draw a line between all the ones I like while avoiding the middle one- |
Next up we have...!! (Okay this is genuinely exciting I would love to talk about them more and earlier ngl) |
Eh let's see what I bought haha I legit forgot it has been so long lol (Oh yeah I bought badges too haha) |
Alright, do we need more plastic to wrap the plastic that wraps the photos though? |
Yes if you would recall I mentioned that these were supposed to be part of the bromide takeover special last month but heck I'm just glad it's here, these are Hondo Kaede x Naganawa Maria event goods!! Yes, they are back for another physical event after all those years, this time around I actually paid money to watch the final of the 3 live events online mainly because it doesn't feature a guest and also because I already paid for a monthly subscription for exactly one month (lol) to watch a livestream back in March and forgot I can get a discount on this if I subbed another month which will be worth it... You get the idea, I was dumb. *laughs* Anyhow, it's not exactly an issue I can always simp on these lovely ladies because now that I'm into Maria-chan screaming seeing a bug on her desk hehe, and how these bromide sets feature them as new students back in the spring season we all remember too well lol also as uber cute streamers, I still got a better deal than those Kido Ibuki bromide sets because with a minimum purchase which may or may not include FOUR SETS OF BROMIDE PHOTOS *dabs* and trust me I almost bought whatever audio log streaming cards (get it, because of the theme?) (yeah think of the one from ye old Rieri fanclub but it's QR code-based doesn't require a subscription) other than badges to complement my order which I didn't I did the latter instead, they gave a complementary set of bromide photos to make this all worthwhile. I'm just happy I'm getting more long black-haired Ede-chan than I asked for just because. *giggles*Β
This doesn't show off a lot here but I PROMISE YOU, the rest are as awesome as it looks. *giggles* (Oh and the complementary set was bottom right haha LAME) |
Hey it's another game of chance! Might as well reserve my luck to burn them all in this one package- |
No pussy. NO PUSSY!!?? (Haha ok calm down me the bet with my bro is over I already won with my signed photobook) |
Just a lovely tease of the cleavage. The power of beautiful women nowadays be like (lmao) |
And next up...!! (Yes I know it's flipped that's how I held it to not let it fall out) |
I had to look back at this too lol oh yes pamphlet |
Okay I remember now because damn this one sat for quite a long time since I got to buy it from the fanclub months ago, but yes my love for Rieri still stands because I'm here with Takahashi Rie's character song birthday event goods!! It's her very first dedicated to all the Anime character songs she has sung including cover songs too by the way looking at you Takagi-san, and in case you wonder if she likes her work enough to sing stuff she likes which is all her work... Let's just say she isn't the only one. *giggles* Lore aside, this one had badges so I just bought a few forgetting I'm running out of space to store them haha, but the main focus was my trust on her words that the pamphlet wasn't just a book with a bunch of text, and after looking at it and my love for her so far? It was worth the purchase. *dabs* Objective opinions don't matter I'm already in her revamped fanclub since end of last year you cannot ask me more questions lol
These are very small for badges so I'm glad I can piece out Rieri with 4 arms haha (There are fabric ones in the lineup though so that's a shame ngl) |
This is very thin, very thin... (lol it's not what you think) |
This looks cool for a event pamphlet, the theme was sewing, as you can see |
"(It was a) dream character song live." Was it? *giggles* |
Yes this is what I'm here for, pure Rieri goodness |
I found my new phone wallpaper. *giggles* |
Just standing there, dude. *chef's kiss* |
I'm just soooo into this woman I can't even (I know my love for her might have faded a bit these few months but IT'S BACK!!) |
Oh, cool, Rieri. *laughs* |
Girls when they want me to pay for dinner lol (Also asking for a hug tbh I'M READY) |
See, if you cover below her cheeks she looks fantastic- |
*smiles* Can't compare to her, apparently. |
You think anyone will notice that bouquet of... yarn, behind her? |
I imagine this is how I will get laid in the future, because some woman gave me a bouquet of not flowers lol (A bouquet of Rieri bromide photos, please!) |
Oh there you go, the song list in the live. Going as far as 2013, people. |
Oh okay I know the right one, that was when she sang a cover of (arguably)Β Ikimonogakari's best love songΒ for Anime "Takagi-san" |
You guys will know the left one if you have watched new generation idol Anime "Oshi no Ko" |
And... we don't care about fan opinions haha (Shout out to right side talking aboutΒ Sumi-chan from Anime "KanoKari", that cute thing) |
And if we can't feature you we'll just list your name out- Don't worry I wasn't in there lol |
And... this page has enough off-shots for me to die from cuteness overload *giggles* |
Next up!! (You didn't see wrongly that is indeed the year 2023) |
Yeah this is a package dedicated to the glorious time that was last year, what of it? *laughs* But still, I'm sorry Mina-chan if it took this long to notice this and that's likely why I did the MusicRay'n Mall purchase here and now, because this is Kotobuki Minako's music artist book!! Well, I feel like this is a tribute because I think this just means it's the end for her unless she comes back in some elaborate collaboration like what her peers released this week (lol), so why not take this chance to walk down memory lane and remember the days where she was the least popular girl in class! *laughs* Okay jokes aside though, I was into Mina-chan's music so much more back then actually right below Aki-chan, so I have to say sorry for not liking your recent EP more, so hopefully this is compensation for something. Also missing the 2nd album on my shelf, the time I mocked about your live video on social media, and-
Girls when I said a bad joke- Wait. Married women when I said a bad joke- |
Alright these are essentially just from the EP last year which is her new music release in a while |
Humble beginnings! Shout out to when I put her 1st album on my shelf, still such a classic in my old man opinion lol |
Her 2nd album took a different direction while still keeping the "Kotobuki Rock" spirit alive, almost placed her 2nd album on my shelf, shout out to her 6th single I still love those pop beats |
At this point anything goes, but more importantly, where she was slightly on the decline hehe (Shout out to her other pop single on my shelf, loved those beats too) (What happened to "Kotobuki Rock"?? lol) |
And then she studied overseas, got married and gave us more music! Hey, that one song got an Anison award though, I loved that song too. |
Oh, live event recaps! I sure loved that one live where they ripped her tearaway outfit apart (Hehe *bonk*) (Aw, GIF doesn't work anymore?? Too bad then hehe) |
Yeah, one day because you aren't that popular as you are anymore so let's at least fill this live up with people lol |
Man, this also brings a lump to my throat. *silence* Guess I'm listening to Mina-chan songs for the night!!
Moving on!!
Yes, please do not bend these bromide photos they are already used they don't have to suffer more damage- |
MOCHOOOOOOOOOOOO (lol) (That chest *umph* haha) |
WOOOOOOOOO-why did it get stuck though~ (Haha oh hey Ten-chan) |
And last but not least haha I don't know why the package always wants me to talk about these first haha I REFUSE, but I'm not going to refuse back to back, another Suruga-ya run!! Haha I promise this is the last in a while, since we have hit our quota we might as well buy bulk like those years I did but now am not because I can do this in smaller sets, but I have been thinking about Akarin since her fanclub livestream (she not feeling well this week though), still am dumb enough to buy old used photos to complete the set where I instead only bought the one for my imouto (hehe) but also Tomatsu Haruka why not. *giggles* But more importantly this run ended up was done for Ten-chan and her recent magazine appearances which I had to snag and then realize these probably won't fit on my phone as wallpaper- Never mind that I'm an adult I CAN BUY WHATEVER I WANT haha you're welcome Ten-chan it was to pad the order anyways *dabs*
Wow this might be too much to show with one hand lol barely can see Tomacchan- WHO?? *laughs* (I still like Tomacchan and you don't. We are not the same haha) |
Maybe this will give you a better view- O~kay maybe not haha (More Ten-chan *umph*) |
And next up we have...!!! |
No, not today because this shall be all for now! Yeah, it's a lot thanks to the one talent company who wants my money but doesn't know how to get more from me (lmao), but heck, Moeshi wasn't much anyways so I had to pad her up. *laughs* Okay my bro and I PROMISE that this upcoming photobook will be a good one, so stay tuned tomorrow where I spend another day of my long weekend (thank goodness) doing this up. Or licking the signed book, whichever comes first. *dabs* See you then- I am TRYING VERY HARD not to make all the jokes I have already prepared up my brain cells so don't mind me if I get hysterical a day later from now MUAHAHAHAHA
P.S.
Uh... we might be full on badges. *silence* Don't buy more yeah, me? |
