πŸŒŸπŸŽ„MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!!πŸŽ„πŸŒŸ

To celebrate (hehe), and I have been waiting for 2 days already as I work... out a plan for this new package to end the year (lol) (no, no more work for the year), and I still think I can make out something out of whatever that 12 days of Christmas carol thing was about over here. *giggles* Sadly, I only can do 3 to be frank, so let's see if this still makes sense in the next few days!

Meanwhile, I'll be more modest and write a letter to Santa here instead. *giggles* It's the season of giving after all, I've given all the money to them so that I can play my own Santa. *wink*

"On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me..."

HO HO HO HO HO

*laughs*





Well, if I one-upped it and you see either a block of text or an interactive conversation (Edit: A letter to Santa is what you get, references galore) then I must have opened all the Christmas presents for myself and spent the rest of this celebratory day jacking off!@#$%^&UNBOXING!!! *laughs* (I gotcha)

Eh is this a good summary of what I have in the box?

Considering it's THIS BIG??
(Haha nice Santa will be proud)

LOL what even is this, campaign for spending this much on just Animate?
Sure dude you already took so much from me anyways haha

I mean, which IDIOT buys from Animate twice if not for free shipping on books?
*dabs*

Excuse me, thrice.
*laughs*
(To be fair, I did this with Infosquare too twice over here)
(Timing dude, I can't control that)
(It sucks to live overseas, okay?)

Thank you excessive air packaging so that these things can be protected
Β (Yes it's my fault for plastic pollution Santa, I have been a naughty boy)

This should give you some deja vu from over 2 years ago hehe

So yeah, my plans for next year. They are nothing. *laughs* Because this will be the first and only thing to start the year (literally) with Ishihara Kaori's 2025 calendar!! Well, there are other options this year unlike this year where I got a table calendar so that I can reinstate a wall-sized one instead of putting some Isobe Karin tapestry all year lol. Minase Inori fanclub's was a choice since they did release a wall calendar along with the usual table-sized calendarΒ and I do have a membership *dabs*Β but February wasn't a close up (haha gottem) and I did forgot this calendar of Kyari-san will be using images from her recent Vietnam trip which is what has become her photobook released this year. Also, I did want to take revenge for the last time she lost to Moeshi if you would recall, so this is the year, dude. This is the year that I will go d**k in first into Kaori- Don't say things you don't mean, me. *laughs* But yeah, you're welcome, Kyari-san. I'll do you this much for another year. *dabs*

I saw this and I knew she was the one for me
(Hehe I meant calendar, just the calendar)

Hey my dad should be keen on this it looks Chinese too maybe I hang it on the living room-
(Haha)

The final page where we will never see this for a day just because
(For more, do help yourself to the photobook review I did 3 months ago)

Okay, with the largest object removed...
*giggles*

I will do you later, let me talk about the new items first.
*laughs*

I mean, if that large word on the right did not give you a hint...

... maybe this will do.
*giggles*

Okay this is definitely a highlight of the year and damn did Ten-chan just make this happen so much more than I expected so SUCK IT SUMIPE your book wasn't as important compared to the Amamiya Sora 10th anniversary special Seiyuu Grand Prix magazine since it's undoubtedly one of the most important things that I have experienced so far. *giggles* Like, personal experience. *laughs* This is because the longest running and largest (RIP Seiyuu Animedia you will be missed) voice actor-focused magazine series has done Ten-chan a favour not just giving her her own 10th anniversary gallery which she did a livestream in and a lot of the content here is based off that gallery in case you weren't there in person, this is also done in line with of a lot of things Ten-chan has done for 10 years of her solo music career since she started in mid 2014 and we have talked about her more than a couple of times in the single reviews you can check those out, but we know her history in the industry started earlier than that, and Seigura has been with her all the way. Releasing photobooks, dedicated columns where she does English... you name it, they did it. They also just released other goods like pyjamas but with my experience in clothing purchases I better not touch those (lol), so I just placed this order of a magazineΒ with a keychain which... might be too much to carry around. *giggles*Β 

No really, this is her own version of Seigura, and in case you forgot the first time I've reviewed a magazine almost 4 years ago, this will also give you a decent summary, I guess. It's just all her now. *laughs* We did it, dude, how narcissistic is this-

And by the way, I have not broken my own logic for only buying these magazines if and only if I know the person on the front and back cover. *laughs* So sorry Yomiya Hina in "Maiden vol.3" released earlier this year along with Takahashi RieΒ (which was *chef's kiss* I did mention this before buying a photobook along with a comic magazine lol) and Yomiya Hina in Seiyuu Grand Prix last month along with my longest-standing voice actress idol group sphere (lol), because THIS is how I ensure I do not break the rules. *taps brain*

Yeah, this might be too big compared to the one I had previously.

LMAO
(Okay maybe I not hang this on my work bagpack)

Hey, my dearly beloved Ten-chan.
*giggles*

Oh hey YukiEri not today I will do you on a Friday.
*laughs* *dabs*

HERE IT IS!!
*hyped*

Aaaahhhh even the back cover is *chef's kiss* I can't even
(hehe)

ι›‘θͺŒΒ Amamiya Sora Dake Seiyuu Grand Prix

Such perfection, such beauty...
(No Akarin, this is not deja vu this is better *dabs*)

My finger for comparison it looks like I'm touching her haha
(Okay let's move on)

Oh, a great reminder of her 10th anniversary 4th album, banger title song she could not be more sadist in that hehe

This content page, dude...
*laughs*
I like.
*thumbs up*

FEET FOR FREE!??
CLOSE-UPS??
*laughs*
(Oh, I am skipping interviews btw, you know what I'm here for)

If she gives me this face when I confess to her, then I have a chance.
*giggles*

Amamiya Sora in a nutshell
*thumbs up*

I presume this lighting and background is against the "Ten" word

So cool yet so fierce, I like.
*laughs*

Yeah there you go, I might just read these considering I know a majority of them lol yes even the dudes
(Seriously, you don't know of Kaji Yuki? How about Ayachi? *dabs*)

*speechless*
*kiss*
Haha ah-

Yeah this is the thing that was shown off in her livestream at the 10th anniversary gallery:
Each panel shows her activities and involvement in Seigura by the year

Cannot unsee unglam Sora-chan hehe these just make her jaw look wide-

Which Sora do you like though?
For me? Maybe all of them?
*dabs*

Okay, I better set the scope here in case you wonder if this was a steal to buy at this price with a lot of content. This does NOT cover every single article she has been on Seigura because this only covers all the ones she has been front or back cover on for her music (excluding digital only covers), excluding regular columns which she is a part of they get to sell those as photobooks which I bought last year lmao, and also does not have those from her many photobooks she has released under the name. Otherwise, you would be pleased to see 2013 her where she started 11 years ago (haha OOF) to even the stuff that I might have missed... considering I only occasionally see these from online sources hehe okay I will show a few of my favourites though

"MusicRayn's new star!"
Hell yeah she is, might be the last of her kind since the 1st gen
*cringe*

I'm so glad though, that "Uten-san" did not stick with her haha *ugh*

Hey Ten-chan, if you need a househusband and another man in your family which isn't your younger brother or dad you can consider me-
(Just sleeping in after waking up though, based)

*dies of megane*
(Haha I think this series is still ongoing? My fetish as a special column lol)

Oh this is a "dream date" alright, just dreaming of her being so nice to me and adorable?
Someone please wake me up haha

Oh yeah this is her newest regular series "Appare Trip" where she tries out new outfits and roles
(I mean, graffiti artist is cool but housewife though...??)

Her photobook releases over the years
(Bottom right what could have been with my first physical books back in 2019 but it was 10 months too late haha ah hey)
(Bottom left bought both on digital last year at a huge discount the extra images were just *chef's kiss* hehe)

As usual, they have Polaroid photo giveaways but of course it's just all her
(Aw dammit, applications latest by 9th December? Welp haha)

And this is what I signed up for, her drawing a four-panel comic strip taking from her senpai Toyosaki Aki's regular series
(Yep, just blue lmao)
(Also I like how this title is only part 1)
Okay I should translate at least the first box because even if you are well-versed like me you might have difficulties reading her cursive writing:
"If the world doesn't look as blue, change your view to blue will do!"
Oh boy haha you can figure out the rest and I don't mean by her drawing skills LMAO
I like where we start to extend her name into phrases like "tenbou"
(I mean, her outlook so far is great, I'll tell you that much)
(Yes, "tensai" is in this haha)

*smiles*
I want her to reject me in high school IRL
*laughs*

Slim isn't slim enough until you love it so much you want to grab-
(lol)

Oh yeah this is her magazine so go buy something at her talent agency's store MusicRay'n Mall why don't you

Oh shit I didn't change back my camera dimensions? Oops haha

Okay, now that the bulk of the presents is done...
*giggles*

Hey, RumiRumi.
*kiss*

Uh, I can't see what this is, but since Hocchan isn't here just yet...

Okay I almost forgot to do this order but also I wish this would come along with the other one but hey thale latter is for next time I guess, this is Uesaka Sumire best album tour bromide photos!! Yep, I would like to talk more about her since I've known her for the past decade but I don't know as much as I know Ten-chan for starters, so maybe it's just a wise choice to just join her fanclub earlier this year for ma bro AND you don't need the subscription to just buy these that don't show any chest so that I will not be satisfied in any way possible. *laughs* Hey, I am getting used to her Showa Era-pop music as she has crafted a path with her solo music career all these years, so at least it's worth supporting. Just not in this case, not that much, I'm just grabbing the usual 2 sets of 3. *giggles*

Simping is when you still buy photos of your idol even though they are less alluring than her Instagram cleavages lmao

Oh yeah, a reminder of how much money I gave in order to get a new relatable character.
*laughs*

Oh yeah, these took SUCH a long time to appear but I'm glad I can use this to conclude the advent calendar I have been using these to make this year (for the first time in my life, actually), this is the new set of Dead or Alive Venus Vacation mini character acrylic stands! Yep, I've started this as early as they have included this... the 2nd time I saw it for their 5th anniversary, but now at its 7th in November and with 30+ characters to boot with new still under paywall character Meg (hey Tomita Miyu you already sound like a slacker why even voice one lol) (oh with rack haha) I feel like this is as much obligation as it's also a way to giving them back (post title drop) (also considering this is a free-to-play and I don't really give them money) in more ways than other since they make this game stick to my mind and I can't stop wanking playing it so *laughs*

Alright let's just move on I did pay for these 2 "True Colours" story events so you're welcome I guess. *sob*

I don't know why I took another photo of these again lol, but True Colours Nagisa is better than Kokoro, I'll say it here.
*giggles*

"Thank you very much
Your love will save RumiMaru"
(With this much money I sure hope so! *giggles*)

Boy, I sure hope me buying more of these will save her in person to be frank I can't wait for me to have to sub to herΒ OPENREC channel lol it is not cheap I may have to cancel multiple fanclubs to sub, this is Ookubo Rumi's livestream event bromide sets!! *dabs* Unlike the others here and even for the year, this one was a staggering THIRTY (30 as in my age-) bromides I get to purchase which EASILY surpassed the minimum purchase for me to get an extra photoΒ so let this be the record breaker where- No, yeah, relax, I'm not done with my pitch yet.

So let this be the record breaker where I get the most stuff out of RumiRumi while still wanting more of her I can't even someone please help me. *giggles* And she still isn't married yet so SUCK IT IBUKI-CHAN because RumiRumi if you will continue to sell these (hopefully in more varied situations even though I would argue these are great *chu*) I will continue to simp on you from here and forever- Please make a photobook at 35 I don't care how old you are I just want more of you *umph*

I'm more of an indoor person so if you would like to come over to my room that'll be swell
*giggles*

With 5000 yen in purchases which isn't that hard lol, this is the free gift for the online store.
Yes, the other one is for at the physical event and that is better imo

Hey, married ladies? Tomorrow.
*giggles*

Okay this married lady though...
*laughs*

And to conclude this Christmas special haha I know there is more hinted in the unboxing journey here and there but I do want to spend more time making posts and fooling around my more than week long break actually hehe, this is yet another damn Suruga-ya run because I never learn from my mistakes!! *laughs* This is the fourth time this year? I've bought used photos (lol) from this damn online store (my accomplice hehe) for so long I wasn't even counting, but seeing that I did a double take within one month half a year ago and I told myself to refrain from doing this for the rest of the year... until I noticed some other chick's order won't appear in time for this to ship out by Santa (lmao no one will know what this is until next year), so I had to resort to this. *giggles* I already missed many waves of good stuff as you would remember they are still limited in quantity and good ones are hard to come by and that's assuming they put it on the listing online instead of on the store, so I take what second hand photos of women I can get. This is NOT how you use Suruga-ya btw people normally use these to buy figurines or something.

Naomi-chan was backlog, in case you wonder. *laughs* I promise you I would have gotten others but I went for quantity over quality- They were on sale. *giggles*

This is as much as I want you to see the lineup and as much as I also don't want to
*laughs*

Alright as a summary, here's the usual content page if you don't like what I served up at the intro. *giggles*

Ishihara Kaori 2025 Calendar
Amamiya Sora 10th Anniversary Goods
"Uesaka Sumire BEST TOUR 2024 Sumipe no Dairiron" Bromide Sets
Dead or Alive Venus Vacation Arcylic Stands (TC Nagisa/TC Kokoro/Meg)
"Ookubo Rumi no Maru Maru no Ken ATM" Bromide Sets
Yet Another Suruga-ya Run




Man, I hope I have given you enough to see some way or another. I know, I have already given. *dabs*

Alright, so the plan for the rest of the week. I am also likely doing posts on Saturday because Entertainment News will be as stacked as the rest of the season because some Anime chose to air their final episodes (yes multiple) half a year later *looks at SasaKoi* so to continue the Christmas carol (lol) we will do this in reverse!! *laughs* So likely CDs tomorrow, and then YukiEri on Friday. *silence* I am already liking this and I haven't even done anything for Song Awards this year lmao I better get to it tbh

Trust me I want to spend more time to convert that menu I have used 2 years ago into its own component, or even change the conversation module so you can choose the stuff you want to see? Nah, not today haha

"On the 2nd day of Christmas, my true love gave to me...

TWO COMPACT DISCS!!"

P.S. Yeah, now that I noticed, I didn't write everything into the list for Santa which will represent the next few posts, but I did want to show I bought them so Santa knows I've been nice to people I like *dabs*
