In the latest issue of Dragon Age, there is news of a new figurine of Miyamoto Rei by Organic and the release date of the 5th volume. In case the image above isn’t clear enough for you, it states that this Rei’s going to be roughly 1/8 scaled, scheduled for release this Autumn, and that the [...]

A final figure item to round out the work week comes in the delightful news from Toy'sworks that they're producing a pair of figures sure to catch the attention of a lot of fans who didn't expect them (myself included): first up is a PVC rendition of Clare, heroine of the Claymore manga and anime. She's scheduled for release in June at 5,800 yen, 1/8 scale (13 cm tall) and comes with a removable cloak and exchangeable face part. Next up is Miyamoto Rei, heroine of Highschool of the Dead, the pulp zombie horror manga by Satou Shouji / INAZUMA of doujin circle Digital Accel Works. She goes on sale in May, at 1/8 scale (12 cm tall) with "sexy body parts" and her trademark pole included; the elevated price of 7,800 yen reflects both the extra torso and the "castoff tax" we've seen emerge over the past year or so - a tax I'll gladly pay, in this case.

So, I decided to start blogging this manga because, well, it’s freaking awesome. Character designs and drawing style are top notch (I think so) and it’s about zombies. ZOMBIES! Ok, ok, it seems sort of like Resident Evil, and the story is similar to zombie part of Grindhouse, but it’s not just as simple as [...]

Highschool of the Dead in a nutshell. Story: In the best imitation of a John Romero flick Highschool of the Dead begins with the unimaginable numbers of the dead rising out of their graves and eating people for no apparent reason, and now it’s up to our team of sexy teenagers to protect themselves from being [...]

H-Holy crap. Awesome chapter this one is! Why you ask? It’s filled to the brim with fanservice galore! And for the record, it’s obvious that Shizuka (the nurse) and her friend Rika (from the previous chapter) are probably the hottest females in the entire manga thus far. Teenager-wise, Saeko is hands-down the most beautiful and [...]

I’ll be short with this review. Awesome chapter. New girl (Rika) with huge breasts and killer shooting skills. Shizuka-sensei raking her hands over Takashi’s body. Saeko showing off her nice ass. This manga just keeps getting better and better. Oh, and do please support the artists when HSotD becomes a book.

This was another great chapter. Nothing much really happened story development-wised but we did get to see some more development on both Takashi and Rei. Rei and Takashi are basically traveling on, trying to find their families. While doing so they run out of gas. A big, ugly thug comes out of no where and grabs [...]

Ah. Don’t you just love fanservice? Well, it seems Rei and Takashi have escaped the zombie-infested school. But not without some helpful comrades and useless idiots in tow. Frankly the only ones that matter to me hour Saeko (she’s so delicious with that sword), Shizuka-sensei (busty+teacher+nurse = insta-fap), and Saya (a saucy/bitch who happens to be [...]

HotD is a new manga that uses the zombie concept but places it in, well, a highschool. The main characters so far include a guy and a girl, Takashi and Rei, who’re desperately trying to escape the school grounds. The first chapter was pretty damn awesome in my opinion and the character designs are topnotch. It’s [...]
