While I can't quite tell whether she's sneering or just baring her teeth in a becoming way, this bikini-clad Tsukino PVC from Yakitate Japan, Alter / Aniplex, and sculptor Saitou Fumiki (large gallery of the original kit here) seems to be just what the doctor ordered for the hot summer months ahead, especially if she's on time for her scheduled August release. Not being much of a Tsukino fan I'll be giving this one a miss, but it doesn't seem like too hard a sell - especially with the track record of the recently released Tsukino (Pantasia ver.) PVC from the same production team. That one sold out with such speed that I regret not picking one up to see what all the fuss was about when I had the chance... I'd recommend hopping on the preorder for this if you're interested, lest she slip through your fingers. (no more)

“Who is it that you will give truly delicious bread to!? The Japan, forever!” It’s a strange final episode for Yakitate!! Japan: no build up whatsoever, and no character arcs resolved. It’s a clear cut case of running out of manga, so maybe Yakitate!! Japan will return some day? Spoilers The final match of “Yakitate!! 9″ is Meister [...]

“This is the path I must take!? Road of the Loquat!” It didn’t take me long to figure out “Road of the Loquat” > “Road of the Biwa” > “Lord of the Biwa” > “Lord of Yubiwa”. I am officially the smartest person alive, in a poll of one person. Kawachi and Azuma get sucked into a [...]

“The sun vs. the blizzard!! The ultimate tart showdown!” It’s a clear cut case of there being only three episodes remaining, as all of the trimmings that make one of these matches last two episodes are cut down for the sake of efficiency. Yet the laid-back attitude of the competitions had its appeal, so I’m not [...]
