My Favorite Anime – Top 7 – Round 4 – Kitsunes

Kon! Kon! Because it’s March, an epic one at that, we’ll have a “kitsune” themed top seven. When March is epic we need some lovely fox spirits to accompany the epicness of it! If you’re a “kitsune” minion then these should interest those viewing Anime relating to fox spirits, foxes, or wolves using similar traits to fox myths/folklore. Now lets see the slyness of our foxy friends! These are the ones I chose as the best for this month

Nendoroid – 104 – Azusa Nakano

Nya!~ Obtained my first Nendroid today being the all too popular Azusa Nakano, or Azunyan. She comes from the overly popular K-On! Anime which features five girls attempting to save the music club – Keion/K-On!. Azunyan being the newest addition to the main casts that gets treated as the cute cat character with the cat ears – Nekomimi. I guess this could be considered a “belated” review as most collectors online have her within their collection.

Pokemon White Bundle (DS)

Ah, Pokemon! The good old days as a kid playing Pokemon Red & Blue on the original Gameboy before the Gameboy got looted from me at school. I acquired the Pokemon White bundle due to nostalgia and because a few people I know used to, or still do play Pokemon. Makes a nice themed purchase for my Arctic Fox persona, with it being white and all. It was also a nice gift to myself on my special month – Epic March!

O-Chan and Saber’s snowy fun

What a weathery rough weekend that was! Ice and rain with clouds reaching to the ground, foggy, and then a snow pile dumped on the city overnight on Sunday. Well, being Canadians I guess we should be used to these messy weather haha! Well, somewhat….O-Chan and Saber wanted to have fun. Also added a few Renge comics as bonus content.

Flight Sim X – Shinden Flight 5

Welcome back! This time I shall be sharing some test flight images of freeware add-on planes and various scenic images of Japan. And of course the infamous Shinden plane! Since I can’t travel to the real Japan, this FSX version should do for now.

My History with Anime

Ah, guess it’s about time I sum up my past with Anime into Nopy’s project. Off to show how I got influenced and why I like Anime to the point that I do. It seems like a nice way of seeing what and how people got influenced by Anime and why they like what they like. Noby’s Project here: http://nopybot.com/2011/02/22/my-history-with-anime/

Do be warned! I’ll be rambling quite a bit as I’m digging back quite a bit into my past!

Flight Sim X – Shinden Flight 4

Hello fellow aviators! Here is another Flight Sim X article featuring a flight from Cancuun to Cuba and then Florida which was about a month ago.  This isn’t necessarily on a weekend but since it’s a quiet week I thought why not, lets up it. Just showing my interest in aviation in a digital manner and to use as a break-up inbetween Anime/Shinki related articles.

The Hidden Life of Figures

Hello! I thought I’d offer up a tutorial article for those new to the figure photoshoot scene, or those simply struggling to brainstorm ideas. Article also doubles as explanation to those those unfamiliar with Anime and figures. I’m basically going to mention ways you can guess or form a personality for figures for your comics, photoshoots, stop motion, or whatever else you might be planning to do and what you might be able to use them for. This also comes from studying other people’s comics and articles.

Note: If you see some obvious points being made, or explained, then it’s because of me explaining what this is about to those unfamiliar with bringing figures to life.

Blog’s 4th Anniversary – Happy B-day Arctic Kitsune!

Happy 4th anniversary Arctic Kitsune! Me? No, no! I simply rode on  that name (and still am) because it’s easier to share/link back with other fellow bloggers and friends. Ghostly Substance? I ditched that username as well.  *coughs* What a time to celebrate Varkitsu’s birthday on Valentines day haha. More love for him then!

GAnime 2011 – Palais des congres de Gatineau

Welcome! Time to venture around my third Anime convention – GAnime 2011! Missing out on last years, I finally managed to go to all three Anime conventions (Otakuthon, Naru2u, and GAnime) within 2010 and early 2011. Maybe not all as I can’t get to Anime North due to transport and contact issues. Only went to Ganime on a Saturday though and found it to be be as great of a trip as Otakuthon’s.
