Tag Archive: Japan Trip


A few days ago Volks has finally announced the Dollfie Dream set to debut in Home Town Dolpa Osaka 6, since I am already quite familiar with Mari Illustrious Makinami from the Rebuild of Evangelion 2.0: You can (not) advance after seeing the movie in Japan last year and again in subtitle format; my attention turned to two girls from the eroge game Pure White Symphony ましろ色シンフォニー 「瓜生桜乃」Uryuu Sakuno and 「天羽みう」 Amaha Miu.  While I am not overly fond of the face molds of these two DD myself, but I guess I will fancy myself with their story since I picked up some encouraging words from some figure.fm comrades that I will not be disappointed with Amaha Miu’s eroge scene ^^;

Pure White Symphony came with some pretty tough regional protection, conventional method such as AppLocale or AGTH couldn’t bypass it and I to use a new tool call ntleac developed by a gentleman in Taiwan I believe. View Full Article »

With a little over a week to go before I fly out to LA to attend AX 2010, flight and hotel are booked and I am very excited about the Dannychoo.com x Fakku meetup, which is one of the main reasons why I even decided to go to AX2010. As I have mentioned in some of my earlier topics, my previous experience in meeting up with fellow DCers has been overwhelmingly positive. Back in 2009, I met up with Fumoffu in Acen and we ended up going to Japan to see Odaiba Gundam together. Back in May, I met up with Anonymous Object and we attended the Doll Meet together at Acen 2010. The only disappointment I had over the Doll Meet was the fact that there were so few DDs there, but I am expecting a lot more DD parents showing up to this meetup. Seeing that there are potentially over 100 people that I can finally put a face to the username, I even prepared my own “Networking Namecard”, which I have them printed at Vistaprint just recently.

Hello again everyone, Fräulein Asuka is back for the last trip report.  Papa wanted to say sorry for those of you who tried to get on this site but couldn’t in the last day or so, the web hosting service side was having some problem and caused anything related to the wordpress database to slow to a crawl; over 90% of the query to the database would time out.  Papa has implemented several improvements on the site which included installing Wordpress Super Cache so hopefully it won’t go down like that again in the near future.  Anyway, enough chit chat, I am here to deliver the last trip report for Papa’s recent trip to Japan, you can read the Day 1 report here and Day 2 report here.

Day 3 was actually a bonus day for Papa since the original plan he made with Fumoffu didn’t include this day, so it was a last minute thing but Papa would take it anyway since he had been enjoying his stay in Japan and actually would loved to spend an extra day there!  The agenda for Day 3 was to visit areas that wasn’t included in Day 1 and Day 2, and Papa really wanted to visit the Volks store in Harajuku since it was only two JR stations away from his hotel in Shinjuku.

Hello everyone, Fräulein Asuka is back for the 2nd day of the trip report.  In case you haven’t read the Day 1 report and don’t know why I am here, I was assigned the duty of writing this trip report for Papa, you can read the first day report here.

As you can see from the background with the Fate Stay Night microfiber towels, you can probably guess what Day 2 is about, that’s right, on the 2nd Day after his arrival to Japan, Papa went to shopping in the Otaku Heaven: Akihabara.

Hi there, my name is Fräulein Asuka-chan, I have been assigned the duty of writing this trip report to Japan for Papa, why me you said?  Well, I was picked from the handful of articulated figures from Papa’s collection to travel with him during this trip to Japan, there were stiff competitions from Figma Saber and Figma Feito, but I won at the end due to the fact that I have been Papa’s favorite for much longer than Saber and Feito.

Japan trip loots

Some of you who have been following my blog would know that I have just traveled to Japan recently for a super condensed sight seeing and shopping trip.  I have a set of mission objectives that I wanted to accomplish, and I have managed to finish most of them by Saturday night Japan time.  But how can it be?  There are only 3 real days to work with, I have to be back in the airport before noon on Sunday.  As I reveal the details of my complete walk-through of my super condensed Japan trip, it will become more obvious!

  1. See the Odaiba Gundam
  2. Watch the Kamen Rider movie
  3. Watch the Evangelion 2.0 movie You can (not) advance
  4. Shopping in Akihabara
  5. Shopping for Dollfie Clothes and appropriate size Rider belts
  6. Go to a maid cafe

I am fairly proud to say that I have accomplished every one of the above objectives even though this trip was so short.  For starter, I am going to cover my loots during this trip and I will expand onto some of the finer details of my experience of my super condensed, super fast pace first trip to Japan.  Without further ado, let me get started.  First is the grand scale loots!
