Pokemon: Morpeko Pumpkin Party Poke Plush

In which I am pretty sure I couldn’t say that title three times fast, but I sure can snuggle this little friend! I just made my first purchase from the US Pokemon Center, and I am ridiculously pleased by the whole thing. They have free domestic shipping for orders over twenty dollars and my stuff […]

Sumikko Gurashi: Tapioca Park Notepads x2

In which we return again to the lovely Tapioca Park, knowing this won’t be our last visit. I’ve still got some Tapioca Park-themed items to show you–today, let’s look at the standard San-x six-inch-by-four inch notepad, with both of the variations since I couldn’t choose just one. How many times have I said I love […]

Sumikko Gurashi: Agekko Rubber Charm Set

In which, just like always, I don’t leave a single fried friend on my plate. I guess it’s good my life is simple in one way, at least — San-x releases Tonkatsu-heavy merchandise, I buy Tonkatsu-heavy merchandise, I write about it delightedly here, and then I go eat some forty cent dinner with my leftover […]

The Get List: Toreba: Hokkai no Majuu Azarashi-san Big Melon Pan Plush

In which you can’t go wrong with melon pan, especially when it comes with a great new seal friend. I’m so behind on writing about Toreba wins! It’s almost a shame when you get several together in a shipment because I feel like the individuals don’t get enough focus. But I wanted to devote a […]

The Get List: Toreba: Sumikko Gurashi Mug Cup w/ Lid

In which I get and review the very first Toreba prize I ever won — which, weirdly enough, showed up not that long ago. Toreba is — well, it’s Toreba. I’m not excessively ashamed to admit that earlier this year I played it way too much and spent way too much on it, and yet […]

Sumikko Gurashi: Re-ment Doki Waku Kenkou Shindan

In which I’m not so impressed by the facilities, but you can’t beat the staff. I always hate admitting it, because I’m 4.51 million years old for starters, but I’m afraid of going to the doctor’s office. I have my reasons, none of which are super pleasant, but I get so nervous about visits I […]

Cute Character Goods: Yell Ojigi Set Three

In which I take a low-cost chance and it pays off in cuteness — and a mole! I love moles. I always have, ever since someone tried to get them off my parents’ property using soap and water flushed down their tunnels when I was a kid, and out of that tunnel flew a mole […]

The Get List: Toreba: Amuse Pocket Dog Daishuugou Big Plush (Jack Russell Terrier)

In which a fluke nets me an awfully cute little pup. I almost feel bad writing this entry, because it was only getting another order of Toreba prizes in the mail (and you’ll be hearing plenty about those, believe me!) that reminded me that I had this sweet little guy sitting around and not written […]

San-x: Kokoroaraiguma Notepads x2

In which my tired heart could always use a good scrubbing, and I’m just so glad to have this crew along to help. I can’t really imagine a scenario in which I wouldn’t like Kokoroaraiguma goods. On my last amiami order, I managed to pick up these two notepads (about six inches high and four […]

The Get List: Toreba: Big Long Gulping Moray Eel Plush

In which I really, really want a goofy plush, and then really, really love that goofy plush. I get the most inexplicable Toreba obsessions sometimes, and this ガブガブうつぼ　ながBIGぬいぐるみ (Gabu-gabu Utsubo Naga BIG Nuigurumi, Big Long Gulping Moray Eel Plushy) from Amuse is a perfect example. I spent more than I care to admit trying to […]
