Little Busters! Esctasy Perfect Visual Fanbook… whatever that means. I haven’t really looked through it yet since I haven’t beaten the game yet. It includes all the CGs added to the Ecstasy edition plus a bunch of other stuff.

Okay, the main point of my order was to get h-manga since my friends and I bought some magazines at AX and were reading them. Guess which magazine we were reading.

This order actually came in two parts… since I was one manga too heavy (5 kg limit). And apparently, I actually ordered Kodomo no Jikan 1 for this order… which I forgot about and bought another copy in Japan. So this copy apparently cost me retail + 430 yen for a second shipment. Great. It better be good.

Total damage (including shipping): 14,563 yen ($153.10 at time of buying)

Fans of Horo REJOICE! The best Horo figure has arrived. Unlike the other subpar figures released, this figure is based on the vastly superior original novel art. The design is simple, just Horo running around in a field, but it captures the essence of what makes Horo so great. Luckily, I was able to get the re-run of this figure before it disappeared. By the time I received my figure, most stores seemed to be already sold out.

Her dress and cute tail are removable, but why would you? Removing her dress would destroy the tranquility of the pose. And her tail is just awesome. Removing it would be a crime, and I would hunt you down.

Her face from below seems to completely change her expression. She looks mischievious, like she’s defying Lawrence again.

Her face from the front looks like of pure happiness. With a face like that, who could resist her? Unfortunately, her bag is part of the figure. It would have been nice if Kotobukiya went the extra step to make it a separate accessory and even better if it were made out of cloth (assuming it’s a cloth bag).

Horo from the side, this time with her ears showing, making her look even better.

Here’s the weird grass stand she’s on. I’ve never seen it before, but then again most characters aren’t in a field. The figure is very stable on the stand. Oh, and Horo isn’t wearing any panties.

She’s wearing some sort of trousers instead. Sorry for destroying some of your hopes.

At 5800 yen, this figure is a great deal. It’s a must buy for any Horo fan. And even if you’re not, you should still get it. Unfortunately, she won’t be easy to find. But all that effort will only make the the payoff more worthwhile.

First off, some figures. I keep saying to myself that I’m not going to buy any more figures, but that’s probably not going to happen, is it?

Horo from Spicy Wolf and Kagamin cosplaying as Miku. What could be better? I’ll post a review/more pictures later.

Second, the ridiculously cheap Planet Earth HD from Amazon.

Total damage: ~$113
