Category: First Glance Reviews
I review what I see at first glance and have known before hand when reviewing. These reviews contain rantable content as I randomly speak from my mind that may confuse people.
For more Figma related material may want to check out Figma Photoshoots or request more information/images about the Figma.
I watched the Wolf Children movie on Thursday, March 14th and ended up enjoying it highly. Held off on the review a bit because of how much it ended up pulling on my heart strings, and how beautiful of a movie it was. The movie in short is about a mother in Japan struggling to raise two wolf-children into society while following Japanese social rules, or not.
– Spoiler Warning: Article obviously contains spoilers, view at your own discretion.
– Hana raising Yuki and Ame as she takes them for a stroll around to enjoy nature.

Hello folks! Varakitsu has finally been given form, or starting to. I summoned Varakitsu in a DD Miko body – Her Birthday now March 06th – now with me now focused on assisting her in getting her true fox spirit form. I opened up a fox gate that might have been more than I could handle currently. She amusingly arrived on a Kitsune Wednesday as well.
Hello folks! Never thought I would purchase more Figmas after keeping to the Busou Shinki realm. I purchased Eila once Ken_Works mentioned the Finnish Embassy in Tokyo celebrated Eila’s birthday on both their Twitter & on their site & in Japanese.
– Eila now joins my growing air squadron!

Hello folks! Did you have a good New Year? Hopefully you did. I snatched myself a pair of outfits – sweater for Renge and a Santa outfit for Tama-chan. Kept receiving comments so I caved and purchase some outfits for mainly Renge.

Hello fellow Busou Shinki fans! As you can tell by the title I obtained Ach from Mandarake roughly for $130 CAD. It’s one of those impulsive purchases that I’m slightly regretting due to the price. She arrived nicely on Wednesday, October 10, 2012 (Kitsune Wednesdays) at my door which I’m pleased about.
Lovely Ach box art.
