    What manga are you reading now?

    I've been killing slimes for 300 years and maxed out my level v2-v7: just plodding along. Nothing too exciting happens, but it's a pleasant diversion. Also been catching up on non-anime related stuff, mostly the 500+ page autobiography by Ingrid Bergman, which was packed with fascinating...

    What manga are you reading now?

    I've been killing slimes for 300 years and maxed out my level v1: very entertaining all female isekai forming a harem, I think. Sort of. Our hero worked herself to death and was granted immortality in her new life. After 300 years of living alone next to a village, she suddenly becomes famous...

    UK Anime Blu-ray & DVD Bargains

    I think I may have started it many years ago. I think I can live without the German edition. :)

    It's not a UK one, but I spotted this in a munich thrift shop for €1. Is it worth it just for the pictures?

    Figure discussion/picture thread

    Unpacked my three Slime figures. They look pretty good together. Cost a total of Y3720 (around £18), Rimaru from Animate in Osaka (I think), Malim/Rimaru from Mandarake in Nagoya and Shion from 2nd Street (chain of thrift shops across Japan which can have some good bargains) in Nagano.

    What did you BUY today?

    Finally home and going through my CD purchases. Had a moment of sadness when I saw I already had Love by Mika Nakashima, which turned to joy when I found the disc inside the case was actually Mika's Music album. Plus I only had a Best Of for Dream Come True, so the three new CDs should fill that...

    What manga are you reading now?

    The Greatest Demon Lord Is Reborn as a Typical Nobody v1: this should really be titled The Greatest Demon Lord Is Reborn as the Greatest Demon Lord, as he is reborn with all his memories and powers, while the 5,000 years that have elapsed has seen everyone else get weaker. I wasn't greatly...

    What manga are you reading now?

    Bibliophile Princess v1-v2: all the elements of the anime are in these first two volumes, interweaved with fragments of other stories and a LOT more soppy romance betweel Elianna and Prince Christopher. Enjoyable but maybe in slightly smaller doses :-)

    What did you BUY today?

    Nakano Broadway is virtually all Mandarake. The Mandarake in Nagoya is where I picked up Shion and Rimaru slime form. Today I braved the Golden Week weekend crowds in Akihabara and Asakusa. Picked up some more CDs for a low price (the shop sells them as "junk" and doesn't guarantee they will...

    What did you BUY today?

    While I didn't buy any, This was the first time I've seen used panty vending machines (at Nakano Broadway, which was jammed with shoppers with American accents looking for non-existent bargains). Got me wondering, is Y500 the right price? How much do new panties cost? I'm guessing it's gotta be...

    What manga are you reading now?

    My unique skill makes me OP even at level 1 v1-v4: very silly isekai harem story about an overworked Japanese salaryman reincarnated in a dungeon of a world where everything is produced by killing monsters. While the story is entertaining, there are some massive plot holes. For people reading...

    What did you BUY today?

    Today I picked up this Evangelion singlet and a pacman t-shirt for Y1500 (for both). The Eva needs some repairs round the shoulders, which is probably why it was so cheap.

    This shop is just near my hotel in Shinagawa. Any furriest out there want me to buy something for them?

    What did you BUY today?

    Bought my first taiyaki today. You know, those fish shaped pastries with fillngs. Mine had custard and chocolate. Yum.

    What manga are you reading now?

    Am I actually the strongest v1-v4: rather silly isekai about a shut-in teen reborn in a fantasy world with a ridiculously power. At least they held off the traditional attempt to recreate Japanese food in their new world until v4. It's entertaining but I can't say it offers anything original in...

    What manga are you reading now?

    Banished from the hero's party etc v1-v7: the first four novels followed the first season of the anime closely, with more detail and back-story. V5 started with the first bit of season 2, then veered into a completely different story across the next 3 volumes involving succession intrigue in a...

    What did you BUY today?

    Finally I found some sound euphonium stuff. Now I'm too scared to open it and see what's inside (hoping for a cd and pretty booklet at least). I found it hard to resist Shion for Y500. She'll go well with my Malim and Rimaru models.

    What manga are you reading now?

    Reincarnated as a sword v5-v12: one long slog of fighting, eating (curry, mainly), getting stronger, fighting stronger monsters, eating more, moving to the next location and repeat. These long train trips are great for ploughing through the backlog. But a change of pace is needed.
