AWAMOE: Seifuku Awamori

di Frankie (03/23/2010 - 12:28)


AWAMOE:
Seifuku Awamori via A Button (Akihabara)

Okinawa - " Since the 15th century Awamori has been praised for its superior quality, rich and robust flavor. Lovers of Awamori were residents of Edo (Tokyo), delegations dispatched from the courts of ancient China and other foreigners who traveled to the Ryukyus. In 1970, Dr. Kinichiro Sakaguchi of Tokyo University, an authority in the field of zymurgy, contributed an essay entitled ”Be it known that Awamori is a distinguished spirits” the best liquor to the journal "World." In the essay, he praised the Okinawan climate that created "Awamori,"as well as its unique manufacturing process, declaring that "Awamori" is one of the best spirits in the world". And now Awamori finally reached Akiba!!

MANGA DOMINO MANIAX!

di Frankie (03/04/2008 - 09:44)


Japan is the land of moe manga and domino so seems natural that this Japanese otaku made a super moe domino with 5000 pieces to express his love for Hayate and celebrate her (virtual) birthday! I still love the old Domino Rally so maybe I will try to make a similar domino with an hentai character or maybe set up a pitagora machine (know in USA as Rube Golberd Machine)!

NEW MOE FOOD

di Frankie (12/13/2007 - 18:35)


This week three new special "Moe Pickels" will be released in Japanese otaku shops (actually, as always, March Rabbit in Akiba will have these products in exclusive for few days). Each package is illustrated by MM Works and contains a special card. There are three Ousozai Tans: Aki Kirishima, Eric Watanuki and Renko Kariya. I'm still don't know which heroine is my favourite, but "otaku sensor" tells me that all these moe pickels are going to be really popular in Akiba!
If you are an hikikomori like me you can even buy this moe pickels (at 630 Yen) on Kappo100.com

Vocaloid 2 mania...

di Frankie (09/21/2007 - 05:51)

I know, I should post aboutmy visit to  the Tokyo Games Show, but you will get everything from the videogame mega blogs and actually I'm more inolved in junk diving in Akiba than shopping for the latset videogames... Anyway, while Ievan Polka, singed by Atsune Miku, is going to be the next Crazy Frog (almost for the Nico Nico community), other Vocaloid 2 videos are getting on...
