As with Ichirou Mizuki’s arrival yesterday, the same bunch of us waited at Changi Airport Terminal 1 to welcome the two remaining guests for Anime Festival Asia. This time, it was both Kunio Okawara and May’n.

Found these on Mika-tan’s blog today. For those who do not know her, she’s the GSC webmistress and the source for all new GSC-related releases.

A photo we will treasure for the rest of our lives.

Bonkurasu and NKDS personnel were at the airport earlier for the experience of a lifetime: the chance to receive Ichirou Mizuki, Aniki himself, to our sunny island of Singapore. Words rarely fail me, but for now I have no idea how to describe the tension and emotion we all felt as we gazed upon the great man, while waiting for him to grace us with his presence.

Those eyes, they are telling me something…

According to Nana’s blog, her 19th single will be released on the 21st of January 2009. The date must be familiar to Nana’s fans, since its her birthday!

The message is clear! Buy the single to celebrate Nana’s birthday! DO EET, FOR NANA-CHAN!

Ahem…my apologies, I got a bit carried away. Anyway, my bet is that the single will be from the upcoming White Album, the Nana vs Aya extravanganza also set to debut in January 2009. A thin red line shall be drawn in the snow then…a line that divides The Legion of Nana from the deluded faithful followers of Hirano Aya. I might cover White Album, though I must confess it would hardly be a fair coverage since I am a hardcore crazy Nana fanboy I have a slight bias towards Nana’s performance. Seriously, she could voice a newt and I would still hail it as the masterpiece of voice acting that it rightfully is.

This is Julius Firefocht, signing off.

Found this shot of a magazine on 2chan’s toy board. It seems that Volks will be releasing some resin figures of husband and wife under their A Brand line of figures. Fate will be in her Sonic Form while Nanoha will be decked out in the form whose name just escapes my mind right about now. More information in the upcoming January issue of Hobby Japan.

While I don’t own any of the A Brand line, I do have one of Volks Super Robot Wars resin kits, the Granzon. The details were very sharp and crisp with barely any mold lines except where they could not be avoided. That, in addition, to their Thrudgemir action figure. There’s also the two recasts kits I got from e2046, the 1/4 Excellen Bunnygirl and 1/8 Hatsune Miku. The only problem with them? Getting around to doing them.

Only problem is, you can’t get Volks stuff outside of Japan unless you get someone to help you them from their shops (like I did for the Granzon) or go through a deputy on Yahoo Auctions Japan.

The organisers have announced some special items that will be available at the event. Items include event-exclusive items and some pre-release stuff that is sure to make anyone drool.
