- Touhou June Loot -

2010-06-12T18:35:00.001+02:00

Nothing better than finish a week's work and receive the month loot!
Like the title say, this time I finally choose to buy some Touhou figures since I'm a big fan of the series and its doujin world.

The figure in particulare are:

- Nendoroid Izayoi Sakuya (GSC)

- figma Marisa Kirisame (MaxFactory)

Here some pictures and a brief description of the two girls.

Easily one of the most enigmatic characters, despite appearing in so many games, Sakuya is the Chief Maid at the Scarlet Devil Mansion. She works for her mistress, Remilia Scarlet, and is apparently the only human working at or living within the mansion. She has the power to stop time. She is known to then place knives in midair and resume time to allow these knives to fly towards her targets. Stopping time is also a handy way of doing large amounts of maid work in a short time. Because nearly everyone living or working at the mansion are maids, being the chief of them all means there are few people there with more authority within the mansion than Sakuya. (via touhou.wikia.com)

Marisa Kirisame is a human, magician, and is one of the most important sub-characters of the series (according to series producer ZUN). Her personality is sometimes described as disagreeable, but in some other titles, straightforward. Either way she is a very self-confident person that likes to stick her nose into every trouble out of curiosity.(via touhou.wikia.com)

This isn't a reviews so I will no talk about the characteristics or else, but I recommend they to every touhou fan!

- Serizawa Fumino by Megahouse -

2010-05-22T14:59:00.005+02:00

Here another figure that has captured my attention! She is Serizawa Fumino from Mayoi Neko Overrun! by MegaHouse. It's only a preview scan but we can see immediately how the ultra-ero side of Fumino is reproduced while she tells you "2-Kai shine!"...moe~
Also the neko group is so kawaii~
Instant get for me since I'm a fan of the anime and manga...hoping in a Chise figure too!
Nyaan~

Romaji Lyrics

Kanji Lyrics

苛立ちをどこにぶつけるか探してる間に終わる日
空は灰色をしてその先は何も見えない
常識ぶってる奴が笑ってる　次はどんな嘘を言う？
それで得られたもの　大事に飾っておけるの？
でも明日へと進まなきゃならない
だからこう歌うよ

泣いてる君こそ孤独な君こそ
正しいよ人間らしいよ
落とした涙がこう言うよ
こんなにも美しい嘘じゃない本当の僕らをありがとう

叶えたい夢や届かない夢がある事
それ自体が夢になり希望になり人は生きていけるんだろ
扉はある　そこで待っている
だから手を伸ばすよ

挫けた君にはもう一度戦える強さと自信とこの歌を
落とした涙がこう言うよ
こんなにも汚れて醜い世界で出会えた奇跡にありがとう

English Lyrics

The day ends while I’m searching for where to let out my irritation
The sky turns gray and I can’t see anything ahead
Those who feign common sense laugh; what lies will they tell next?
Can you leave the things gotten that way carefully embellished?
But I have to keep moving forward to tomorrow
So I’ll keep singing like this

It's you who are crying, it's you who are lonely
You’re right; You’re just being human
That’s what the tears I shed say
This is beautiful too; It’s not a lie; Thank you for our true selves

Having dreams you want to come true and dreams you can’t reach
That itself becomes the dream, becomes the hope for people to go on living
There’s a door; it's waiting there
So I’ll hold out my hand

For you who feel crushed, here's the strength and confidence for you to be
able to fight again and my song
That’s what the tears I shed say
Thank you to the miracle that we were able to meet in a dirty and ugly
world, even like this

Kanji Lyrics

背中にはシャッターの壁
指先は鉄の匂い
進め弾けどのみち混むでしょ
find a way ここから
found out 見つける
rockを奏でろ
遠くを見据えろ
息継ぎさえできない街の中

星空が最高の舞台
カラスたちカーカーと鳴くよ
いつも思うよ　いつ寝てるんだろ
find a way あたしも
song for 歌うよ
rockを響かせ
crowと歌うよ

いつまでこんなところに居る？
そう言う奴もいた気がする
うるさいことだけ言うのなら
漆黒の羽にさらわれて消えてくれ

全力でもう倒れそうだ
指もすり切れて痛い
でもね　演るよ　今夜もビッグなストーリー
find a way ここから
found out 見つける
rockを奏でろ
luckを歌うよ
いつまでだってここに居るよ
通り過ぎていく人の中
闇に閉ざされたステージで
今希望の詩歌うよ
あなただって疲れてるでしょ
その背中にも届けたいよ
こんな暗闇の中からの
希望照らす光の歌を
その歌を

English Lyrics

There’s a wall of shutters behind me.
My fingertips smell like steel.
Move ahead! Strum those strings! It’s crowded, at any rate.
Find a way from here.
You’ll find what you’re looking for.
Play some rock
Gaze into the distance
Inside this city where you can’t even take a breather.
The starry sky is the best stage of them all.
The crows cry out, “Caw, caw”.
I’m always thinking of them. I wonder when they’ll go to sleep.
Find a way – I will too,
In a song for me to sing out.
Making rock echo
With the crows, I’ll sing out.

How long will I exist in this place?
I feel like there were people who once said that.
If you’re only going to say annoying things,
Let the jet black wings carry you away and just disappear.

With all my power, I’m about to collapse.
My fingers are worn out and in pain,
But, still, I’ll perform. Tonight will be a big story.
Find a way from here.
You’ll find what you’re looking for.
Let’s rock out and play on.
I’ll take my luck and sing it out.

No matter how long, I’ll exist here
Within all the people who pass through.
On this stage enclosed in the darkness,
I sing my poem of hope right now.
Even you must also be tired.
I want to send this to that back of yours -
From within the pitch darkness,
The song of light that gleams with hope…
Yes, that song…

- Working on a New Project -

2010-04-10T18:53:00.001+02:00

Not much to say except that now I am working on a new project of a site about doujinshi.
If you are curious the link is doujinshi-kyun.blogspot.com.
It's just born so there isn't much, but it's continually in update.
If there is a little more time between the updates on this blog this is the reason.
Thanks for understanding!

- Nendoroid Takane Manaka + Nendoroid Francesca Lucchini -

2010-04-07T13:27:00.002+02:00

Double update for the mikatan blog with two of the most anticipated Nendoroid.

The first is the Nendoroid Takane Manaka from the ultra famous title for DS, Love Plus.

And from Strike Witches, here the Nendoroid Francesca Lucchini.

As I said in the post "Wishlist Wonder Festival Winter 2010" I waited the Nendoroid Francesca Lucchini for a long time! First because Francesca is one of my favorite characters, second because I want complete the Strike Witches Nendoroid Set (Charlotte and Lynette already planned); so it's an instant order!

About the Nendoroid Manaka I must say that it's very very cute, but I must pass because my favorite character of the trio is Rinko, so I wait for her!
