I used to kinda like anime back when I was 16/17... Cosplaying a pokemon character at a convention might just be the weirdest thing I've done. And I don't know if it's very otaku, but I had a fairly big collection of Mame Shiba keitai straps back in 2009.


as a human character or one of the pokemons? :P

Nothing really, except collected a few figurines. I would like some more. Also, I spotted a Chopper t-shirt in a shop at Uni that I keep forgetting to go in and enquire after. Bah!

Tourists, mainly. :tongue:
Planning and buying all of the gear for giving myself Anarchy Stocking hair. >__>

Still not done that though, saw some people with realllly badly dyed hair on dA who put me off.

I guesss it'd have to be buying a looad of Loveless merch off of ebay back when I was about 14. And drawing lots of fanart. That was quite a while ago though, not really into that whole scene anymore c:

I buy otaku-ey things

I have a few artbooks imported, though my most prized possession is a copy of Miwa Shirow's VVW from Comiket 76 :teehee:
I also own a Block Rock Shooter PVC figure. Wanted the set, but no money.

Meh

I sell at the MCM expo's for the time being so I've taken the site offline (I don't want to end up without enough stock for the expo.)

I wouldn't mind a psychical shop but I wouldn't open one in this country (to much stigma against h-stuff, etc...).

I'm going to uni to study Japanese and then I'm planning on emigrating over there.
Go as pyramid head to an expo.. (well I've kinda wanted to anyway hah)

If I could have, I'd have bought the akatsuki cloak and worn that around random places, done it with like 10 other people to have the full group xD

I've never watched that, is it good? or just a typical incest/loli fanservice type of anime?

wew. you are amazing. you are like the only person that i know so far that is very serious about anime and make it into a business. but i thought that tokyo(and naturally almost all of japan) have banned ecchi and the likes to be sold publicly because of tokyo governor's policy. i'm not sure whether it is fine though if you clearly rate it as 18+. and from what i know, japan is also well known for its hate against foreigners.

of course it depends on your taste. but i like it very much. it is more of comedy type. the character designs are awesome, the songs are enjoyable and ED song changes every now and then. storyline, although trivial is quite rich and interesting. it has very few fan services for it's genre i would say
