Wolfheinrich's World

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!

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~

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.

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.
