Why does link looks so annoyed on that cover? "Urgh, do we really need a picture of me on the cover? People will just think I'm Zelda."

How's legend of galactic knight in manga form? Doesn't it goes on for like 5 billions volume, any chance they'll actually bring all of them over?

For the "Spice & Wolf Anniversary Collector's Edition Novel", if you click on the shopping link, you get a Right Stuf page that says:

Page not found
Sorry, we could not load the content you requested.

The book was available again on November 9, but I'm figuring that it was sold out again before today. Right Stuf sent out an email on November 9 saying the book was available and that "Got Anime?" members could get 15% off, but the email also said "Get It While You Can!" and "LIMITED QUANTITIES!", and the title of the email was "Don't Miss It Again! GA Members Only Coupon - Limited Quantity!!".

It looks like you're right about Spice & Wolf. It was definitely in stock this weekend when the guide was being prepared.

I was just wondering the other day if Viz was planning on releasing a hardback omnibus for Tomie since they'd been doing that for Ito's other manga recently. So this makes me very happy, since it's one of my favorite manga. I'll definitely be gifting it to myself.

I'm really interested in that NEW GAME! book. I may have to pick that up.

The One Punch Man t-shirt looks like an interesting buy; including the long wallet for rebuild of evangelion.


Well that's all that really interesting me in the fashion section, oh!, also the hoodie for the ipod one as well.

NERV logo is a fig leaf, not a maple leaf. Maple leaves are more angular, with spiky rather than serrated edges.

The price for the hats seems to be copy-pasta from the unicorn scarf. It says over a hundred when they're actually $20ish

These are... sort of bad. Especially since there's so much good anime-based fashion around now (like SuperGroupies). But I guess those are sort of harder to get your hands on in like a month.

But that stuff is sort of bad looking.

Also... women can wear men's clothes but men can't wear women's clothes? Guys should be more unisex too...that stuff isn't even particularly feminine. You need to like, ditch the gender labels altogether and put some like, Alice and the Pirates or something in there. Everyone needs less jeans and t-shirts, and more frills, regardless of gender.

I like the Mel Kishida sheet but I don't think I would get it myself. It's not the sort of thing I would ask for as a gift and I don't know if I want to spend that much on sheets myself. Plus I would be worried about the impression of visitors. And it isn't quite the right size anyhow.

Thank you spreading the greatness that is the Black Magician Girl. There must be at least 1 BMG product in someone's home, imo.



You didn't mention Apple Magician Girl. She is worth every dollar.

Also, last but not least...The Game King himself, Dark Yugi.
