Christmas Domestic na Kanojo Promotion

Of all things, Christmas eve in Akiba featured a couple of cute girls in santa costumes giving out promotional leaflets for the next-season anime Domestic na Konojo! The innovative advertising techniques of Japan never fail to amaze me.

The leaflet is actually a promotional postcard, and when unfolded it features the two main girls nude, nipples and all. My interest in this show has risen..

Farewell Zombie Land Saga

Just watched the final episode and I’ve gotta say I really enjoyed the show all up. The first couple of episodes really packed a punch with high energy and constantly surprising comedy and it never fully capitalised on that potential but it instead delivered a pretty decent character- driven idol story.

The character designs and voice acting were definitely stand-out on this one.

The final episode did a good job of pulling together threads throughout the whole run to focus on the final character and end on a satisfying note of finality. Although there’s room for more I’m not sure it would work too well tbh, the zombie premise seems to have already run its course.

Anime Highlights: Dog-girl Tobiichi

Whether you’re a cat person or a dog person, it’s hard to deny the moe of dog-girl Tobiichi. In the Date a Live OVA the normally reserved Tobiichi falls prey to the age old anime trope of misappropriating cosplay ideas to appeal to a male love interest. The result, she dresses up as an obedient dog girl and strikes doggie poses in a deeply embarrassing pubic display. The thing that takes this to the next level is the combination of knee-high socks, school swimsuit and the leather collar to top it all off. Perfection!

Needless to say, the scene left an impression.

The design recently reappeared in a later volume, where she graced the cover (and added a maid head piece I note).img_20181029_1426591464523791315051391.jpg

She even had a really nice figure created of this costume in that appealing squatting pose! I have to admit, this one is on my shelf..

New Illya OVA! – Key Visual

Some good news for Illya fans right before Christmas – a new OVA is on its way! The key visual has been released and it’s quite adorable. After the more serious movie, I hope this one is light-hearted and comedic and delivers some good old-fashioned loli fanservice.

New SAO Alicization Key Visual

A new key visual was released for the second cour of Sword Art Online Alicization. It’s definitely looking pretty cool and hints at a more in-depth plot with a new suite of characters for Kirito and Eugeo to deal with.

As an side, I’m quite enjoying the current season, although it’s so far missing a certain something that prior Sword Art anime had – can’t put my finger on it. The action is really well handled though and I’m hoping a more complex plot will make it more engaging to watch.

New Strike the Blood OVA is out!

Strike the Blood OVA II I volume 1 has been released in japan and Renka blog posted a review of it including the Blu-ray packaging and vast numbers of screenshots of all the good bits. It came with a really nice A3 clear poster of the main heroine Yukina Himeragi, pictured right below.

As can now be expected from Strike the Blood, the fanservice scenes are forthcoming, from panty-shots to nipple-presenting bathing scenes. I’ve done some highly professional self-censoring for this blog, but head over to Renka to see them in all their naked glory.
