PLEASE CONTINUE READING MY RAMBLINGS IN THIS NEW SITE:

But do you see a ‘yay’ from me? Nope, not really.

With June getting the title instead of Kitty Media or 801 Media, we can expect that the English version will have *lots* of them blurry boxes/faded images. Many YA fans have already expressed their concern regarding the censorship of this manga. A poll is currently being done in the Yamane Ayano LJ community meant to be sent to June to express this concern.

My yaoi manga collection consists mostly of June titles so I KNOW for a fact that June does censor some *steamy* parts. Now, how the heck can I enjoy Viewfinder with that? To Viewfinder readers, we all know that the manga has lots of those explicit scenes. Heck, the first chapter alone has a whole lot of ‘em: bondage, sadism, rape, you name it.O_O

Why JUNE anyway, when June and 801 Media are owned by the same company, Digital Manga Publishing??

*EDIT* Something that makes me happy at least: (I literally jumped for joy when I read this.)

Quoted from Sunflower1343, a moderator in the YA LJ and one who has direct communication with sensei.

“They will be publishing *new* versions of these, in B6 size (that’s Japanese manga-sized). Yay again!!! They’re to release volumes 1-3 (!) by yaoi-con this October, then vol 4 sometime after that, and subsequent volumes later. One thing to note is that we understand that the print run on these volumes is small compared to those in other countries so I suggest buying them right away, or there may be a supply issue akin to those of other popular DMP manga. It would seem foolish to me to let them go out of print, but hey, I’m not a manga publisher so what do I know?”

XDXD OH-EM-GEE. Three volumes in one go? My wallet may bleed but my heart will cry tears of happiness.

And yes, to make a long story short, even if there will be censorship, I will still buy the Finder Series when it comes out. But I still truly wish there won’t be that many. June releasing this in B6 format means that they are willing to make changes for Yamane-sensei. *u*

I can’t believe I didn’t know about this.>_<

I’m itching to get a few of those figs that’s why I’m selling off my kpop collection here again.=_=;; I hope someone buys.

Only  two figures will be posted so there won’t be a rant-rave overload.>_<

To start off, we have:

Megahouse’s 2nd Gintama G.E.M figure, none other than the Mayo King and the Vice Captain of the Shinsengumi himself, Hijikata Toushiro!! We won’t really get him gold plated though. *thank god*

Here’s the colored version posted in the Otakai Forum: click me. Don’t you just love how fierce and awesome he looks? *drool* This figure is set for release on June 2010. A perfect birthday present for my self! Yay!^^ The price is much like the other G.E.M figures, 6930 Yen.

Pre-order’s not yet available in Amiami and Amazon though.Pre-order is already open in AmiAmi. I’m gonna wait for this in Amazon to avail free shipping.^^

I only found out about the next figure through Ponytale’s post. ^^

death god and demon(s)

I’ve already contacted Dango of Bacchikoi Toys and asked how much the Grell+Sebastian set would be locally.XD I hope it won’t be that expensive. The set costs only 1,980Yen or approx. Php 1,000 in Amazon.co.jp.=(

I regretted not getting my passport for the first time when DBSK went to Bangkok.=(

Anyway.. the reason why I’m dreaming for a passport/VISA/and money to travel to the US *again* is here: http://www.yaoicon.com/

YES. The Yaoi-Con is here again… and guess who’s the Guest of Honor mangaka; Dundududun… None other than my favorite, YAMANE AYANO-SENSEI. Oh-em-gee. I would definitely go if I was anywhere in the US.>_>This will be sensei’s second time as the guest of honor in this convention.XD Sensei is loved by many!!

And on the note of a yaoi con, I read last weekend that this year’s “Lights Out* or Philippines’ own Yaoi Convention will be held on April 24, in Makati City. I haven’t been to a Lights Out con before and there’s a big chance that I may not be able to go to this one again.=(

Reasons: 1. Makati is so faaaar away from QC. 2. April 24? I’m already lazing around at home in Bicol by that time! WHY can’t event organizers consider students who go home to the provinces during vacation?? Plus.. most students don’t actually have allowance during sem break. Where will we find the money to buy your 300Php entrance ticket  then? (expensive for a con, IMO) Plus, the spending money for the merchandise.

Sad. I really wanted to play this game:

Memory Game
How good are you with your semes and ukes? Place a PhP 5 bet against your Butler and match as many pairings as you can from the special LO deck. Beat him and win a prize from Le Mirage’s bag of goodies.

I already have to postpone going home for more than a week because I’m GOING TO THE SUPER JUNIOR CONCERT with my sister on April 10.XDXD I’m afraid I can’t extend it any longer.

REPOSTED FROM CASSPH:

The situation: One Kayla Patterson, a twihard obviously, emailed Universal Studios regarding the movie “Wolfman” to pose her claim that “Wolfman” is a complete rip-off of Twilight. I searched online for a ‘Kayla Patterson’ to directly email her but there were too many Kayla Pattersons in the world. wow.XD

Here goes the whole e-mail. Un-edited.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

To whom this may concern:

This movie was a complete waste and I feel that it offends ALL Twilight Fans around the world, that including myself. For one, it was a COMPLETE remaking of the Wolf Pack from the Twilight Saga: New Moon. It gives the werewolves a bad name and makes them look like some deformed mutation of a rabid dog. I actually started to like werewolves after seeing Jacob Black and all his awesomeness on the big screen at the movies. That was until I saw your crappy remake of what you call to be a “were wolf”. I don’t see how you live with yourself for making it the way you did. If I made this movie, I would be ashamed to even admit that I owned it. How can a werewolf be killed with a silver bullet?
Better yet, have you saw the transformation of the man that is “supposed” to be the wolf? He sits in some chair and his entire body turns in to some mutated freak. If you would watch the transformation of Jacob Black, (Taylor Lautner) he doesn’t come close to looking as fake, cheap and or mutated as the wolf man.  You tell me, who looks to be the better werewolf. Your stupid Wolf Movie didn’t even make the top Movie for the charts; Valentines Day WITH TAYLOR Lautner! Get that this is MY oppinion and I felt I wanted to express it because I saw that your email was on your site. I wanted to let you know this is what i thought of the wolf
man that sucks.

FREAKIN LAUTNER DID!

The Poser of who could never be even if they tried : ” Aka : Rabid poser Werewolf  “The Wolf Man”

OR My favorite: Taylor
Daniel Lautner aka Jacob Black

TEAM JACOB- cuz hes a REAL WEREWOLVE!

Regards:  Kayla Patterson (kayla—-@—–.com) Feel free to reply.

The title has said it all.^^ The new Viewfinder chapter is coming up soon.. as in very soon, like maybe tomorrow there’ll be some raw scans in the YA LJ Community already.XD I won’t be able to sleep much because of this.=_=;; The new chapter is here in Serena’s blog: http://community.livejournal.com/serena_daragon2/ ENJOY!^^

Two teaser pages are also up in the BBoy site: here

This issue is set for release on April 2010 but for those with a BBOY subscription, they get it about 2 months earlier.=) Some members in the YA comm have a subscription so we get the raw scans earlier than most people.XDXD

Someone in the YA Comm has also kindly translated those  two  teaser pages for us. And yes folks, the fanfic plot where Akihito is being forced to move into Asami’s apartment might just happen. *SQUEEEEE* What else can explain Akihito’s apartment turning empty while he was gone and the presence of another apartment key by his door??? OOOOOH. I just love Yamane Ayano-sensei.^^

Another news for us VF addicts:

Photo stolen from: http://oborousagi424.blog.shinobi.jp/Category/2/

The oh-so-famous and oh-so-hard-to-get bedsheet of Asami+Feilong which is included in the Yamane Ayano Special Collection box will be re-released!! The stocks will be limited though, so you’ll just have to be quick about pre-ordering. There’s no news yet on where to pre-order though.^^

Libre should have just re-released the whole Yamane Ayano Special Collection Box, IMO. I’ve been dying to get my hands on the Club Sion membership card and that almost *nekid* Akihito picture as well. And though I already have a copy of the photobook, I’d prefer the hardbound version included in this box, over my paperback one anytime.T_T Having two half naked Yakuza leaders as bedsheet is not on my list of favorites. I’m not too enthusiastic about Feilong and Asami being together in a single bed, as well. HAHAHA. I’m a strict Asami-Akihito fan, sorry.

Chara-Ani finally released the colored prototypes of the

Junjo Romantica Petit Nendoroid!

(set includes Suzuki-san, pic not posted.^^)

You may still order for this uber cute set here:

GET A JAPANESE PROXY NOW.

^___^

I still would have preferred a real Nendoroid over a Petit though. Being ‘Petit’, this means we can’t customize its pose and its looks. With a Nendo, we may also switch the body to that of another Nendoroid if we have others. Makes me wonder how Usagi would look like in Sebby’s tuxedo.

I’m a ‘basic’ html person and using php is waaay out of my league right now. -_-;

Anyhoo. Welcome to the new site. I hope my old friends in Multiply can still check out my entries regularly. I’ll be counting on you guys.

Comments are always loved. <3
