Alicesoft 20th Anniversary Project: Alice 2010

by Wolfheinrich on Nov.21, 2009, under Eroge PC Game, Otaku Home screen

It felt like it’s been forever since the last time I talk about eroge game now, perhaps it has to do with the fact that the last Illusion game Yuusha Kara Wa Nigerarenai was too much of a failure for me to even spend any time on it.  Anyway, what I am going to talk about this time is the Alicesoft 20th Anniversay Project: Alice 2010.  The same company that brought us awesome games such as Mamatoto, Beat Angel Escalayer, Sengoku Rance, Daiakuji, Big Bang Age, Beat Blade Haruka and Toushin Toshi 3.

I have been a fan of Alicesoft games for many many years now, most of their games are very fun to play, challenging and require some level of fluency in Japanese before you can play effectively, not to mention most of their heroines are drop dead gorgeous!  Every now and then, Alicesoft would do a fandisk release call the Alice Mansion, which contain a collection of omake stuff, songs, short stories etc.  The year 2010 is Alicesoft’s 20th anniversary and they have prepared to go with a bang!  Let’s take a brief look at what they have to offer!

Here we have Alicesoft’s mascot, Alice in her modern look; she has received many face lifts over the past 20 years or so, and needless to say, she is still one of the most kawaii eroge game company mascot around!

1/4 Uesugi Kenshin E2046 Gathering version

by Wolfheinrich on Nov.08, 2009, under Otaku Home screen, Other Figures, Photo Shoot & Review

A few days ago, blogsphere comrade Tier celebrated his acquisition of the rare and limited edition of pre-painted version of the 1/4 Uesugi Kenshin from Volks A-brand.  I promised him to take a few pictures of my own 1/4 Gathering version for him to compare the finishing quality between the two.  That reminded me, I never quite taken pictures of my 1/4 army, might as well take this chance to snap a few pics eh?

For those of you who are not familiar just who this Uesugi Kenshin is, please take a look at one of my earlier post for the 1/5 Uesugi Kenshin Freeing version.  In 2007, in a survey done by Tech Gian, Kenshin narrowly defeated Saber from Fate Stay Night to become the most popular eroge game heroine of the year.  Enough talking, let’s dig in~

As usual, click on pictures to show full scale image~

I picked up this Kenshin a few years ago, obviously I haven’t gotten in Dollfie Dream then.  I have always treasured this Kenshin as the most elegant painted figure I have ever owned, like a goddess descended from heaven.

Miss Dollfie Summer 2009 – Escalayer entry update

by Wolfheinrich on Aug.14, 2009, under Dollfie Dream, Otaku Home screen, Photo Shoot & Review

It’s been a few days since I submitted my 2nd Dollfie daughter Asuka to the figure.fm x Hobby Link Japan sponsored Miss Dollfie Summer 2009 pageant contest.  I initially submitted my 1st daughter Escalayer’s entry but due to time constraint I didn’t do a very good job on the entry.  Now that the time period has been extended, I sort of feel the need to go back and do another special session with Escalayer because I felt I had put more effort into Asuka’s entry and it isn’t fair to Escalayer.

Timing is tight so I had to fired up Hikari Photo Studio and took us to a more exotic location for a special photo session!

Miss Dollfie Summer 2009 Contest Entry – Escalayer

by Wolfheinrich on Aug.04, 2009, under Dollfie Dream, Otaku Home screen

Figure.fm, another community site under Dannychoo.com has been buzzing with activities lately.  The latest contest, sponsored by the good folks at Hobby Link Japan is Miss Dollfie Summer 2009!  Among the prizes are a very neat looking black gothic style dress and a ToHeart 2 uniform set!

The details of the contest are as follow:

All your daughter has to do is post 3 different sets of photos of herself. Rules time:-

  • Inspired by Miss World contests, I’m looking for 3 types of photos of your daughter:-
    • Swim wear, bikini, underwear or slip. If your daughter does not have underwear then their hands should be stylishly covering their v-zone and pupils.
    • Casual or default costume – the costume that came with your Dollfie.
    • Outdoor.
  • You can enter up to 3 of your daughters – one daughter per post.
  • Each post should have the 3 different types of photos.
    So if you are entering 3 of your daughters then you will post 3 times – each post will have the bikini, casual and outdoor photos.
  • I never got round to finishing the Dollfie Day thing that I was in the middle of doing over at DC so will be asking you to give details of your daughters again which are:-
    • How old are they
    • What they like doing
    • Favorite food
    • The first word that they said to you
    • Why your daughter is the fairest of them all

To be honest here, I am doing this for the sake of participation more than anything since I don’t really have casual dresses for my dollfie daughters.  However, it’s a good excuse to take my daughters outside for some photos, some of them are actually pretty good!  I wish I had more time to prepare for more outdoor photos of my daughters, since I have been busy writing up the ToHeart 2 summary for Kusugawa Sasara, otherwise I would have sent more of my daughters in for the competitions!

My entry for the contest, my fairest daughter – Escalayer!

[*] How old are they
Escalayer was adopted on April 20th, 2009, but when I ask her how old was she, she told me “All Eroge game heroines are at least 18 years old!”
[*] What they like doing
She likes to watch Kamen Rider with me and help me out on Eroge game when I get stuck!
[*] Favorite food
Chinese dim sum – Siu Mai
[*] The first word that they said to you
Henshin! 変身!
[*] Why your daughter is the fairest of them all
My daughter has a very cheerful smile, a beautiful head of long straight red hair and a charming body. I love her so much that I adopted 6 more daughters to accompany her!

1/5 Uesugi Kenshin FREEing version

by Wolfheinrich on Jun.27, 2009, under Otaku Home screen, Photo Shoot & Review

I am sure a lot of you have grown tired of my continuous Dollfie Dream and Otaku Project spam, how about a little change of pace and go back to the good old PVC figure review for a bit huh?  I have done a brief summary of this 1/5 FREEing Kenshin in the Dollfie Dream Completion Project Arrival post as I got her but that didn’t do her enough justice so I decided to do a more detail review for her.

One of the main reasons why I haven’t done much with PVC photo review is because of the wordpress 2.8 upgrade has broken one of my most favorite plug-in Wordpress Flickr Manager.  It takes cares of everything for me, but since it’s broken and the developer is no where in sight, I am not sure when this is going to get fixed >.>;  I wish I never upgraded to wordpress 2.8 despite of all the new features, having a working flickr manager is way more important to me….

Anyway, enough ranting, let’s get back to Kenshin!  Believe me when I say this is probably the best looking Uesugi Kenshin PVC figure we have to-date, she definitely deserve this title.  The previous attempts by Griffon and Kotobukiya could not even come close to the beauty of this Kenshin.

Dollfie Dream Dynamite Escalayer

by Wolfheinrich on Apr.17, 2009, under Dollfie Dream, Otaku Home screen, Other Figures

I am not sure for what purpose I am writing this post, but I just feel like getting it off my chest.  For a better part of 7 years now, I have been collecting merchandises ranging from painted resins, PVC figures, posters, stick pillow from the eroge game Beat Angel Escalayer from Alicesoft.

Choko Sennin Haruka – Subaru Gathering kit and background story

by Wolfheinrich on Mar.25, 2009, under Eroge PC Game, Otaku Home screen, Photo Shoot & Review

Next up for the photo session treatment is my newly acquired gathering kit from E2046.com, Subaru from the eroge game Choko Sennin Haruka.

dsc00461

Choko Sennin Haruka is a heroine, insult, ninja, training + ADV eroge game release by Alicesoft back in Feburary 2008.  Previously released figure related to this series includes Takamori Haruka from Alter and the yet to be released Shihoudo Narika also from Alter.  Subaru is considered as the third and non-cannon heroine as she only joins you mid-way through the game and did not have her own cho-henshin costume.  Despite the fact that Alicesoft did not consider her as main heroine, she is actually rather popular among the fans; probably due to her mature body build and her beautiful long black hair + ponytail.  In this write up, I am going to attempt to give a summary of the game story as I would focus Subaru’s story as she joins the team as I don’t think I can talk about Subaru without talking about Haruka and Narika.  I would finish Narika and Haruka’s stories in future write ups, otherwise, it would be too long.

Photo session

I would say the paint job and shadow are done very well, the skin tone may be a little pale in the face for my taste. With an interchangeable arm, magnetically attached clothing and the gold trim around her waist belt, this gathering kit is full of gadgets.  The only catch about this kit is the artificial right arm seems to have a very tight of a fit against her body to be assembled right out of the box (and I ended up shaving some resin off her arm to force it in).  As a result, it’s nearly impossible to cast off her lower half body.

This is a first mega post for me!  I ended up putting in a lot of details on the background story and well I did end up playing the game over just to be sure I don’t make any false assumption.  As a result, I ended up finding stuff that I missed during my first play through.  In the end, I feel it’s still a benefit for me.  As usual, I would like to seek some feedback on a feature like this, photo session + background story.  Is it too much details or just about right?  Next write up would most likely be Haruka and I am saving Narika for last since her new figure would come out in July.
