[FiguReview]Bima Action Figure

Premiered on June 30th 2013, Bima Satria Garuda (Bima the Garuda Knight) is Indonesian tokusatsu series created by cooperation of MNC Media and Ishimori Production. According to one of interview by its creator and producer, so far Bima is doing very good with its sold merchandise as well as revenue from ads which as high as shows aired on prime time (Bima airs on Sunday morning). Among the merchandises, which is made by Bandai, one that highly anticipated by adult fans is the action figure since months ago, and few days ago finally the said item is released. Specially for this item, I borrow camera from a relative (Canon EOS-M) just so I can do the usual FiguReview for this figure since my camera is busted and I haven't bought the new one. So, do this figure met the expectation of the fans, read on!

A Talk with Katsuhiro Izumi on AFAID13

Hello everyone! It's really been awhile since my last entry, but worry not since I'm still breathing and pretty much alive, it's just I don't have any worth material for a new entry on this blog. I won't do any other VN summaries anytime soon (planned to do Sena and Rika route for Haganai Portable but my PSP busted) and as for the figure review, I still haven't buy a new camera yet. I have many new figures but without a decent camera, I don't have any motivation to do the usual review. I still take some pictures of those new figures I posted on my Instagram, follow me @bakanki if you're interested.

Anyway, today on this post I'd like to share my conversation with Mr. Katsuhiro Izumi on Bima Satria Garuda booth on Anime Festival Asia Indonesia 13 yesterday. If you don't know yet, Bima Satria Garuda is the first Indonesia tokusatsu hero created by MNC Media with Ishimori Production cooperation. As for who Katsuhiro Izumi is, he is the current Chief Producer/Designer at Bandai HK as well as the toys designer of Bima Satria Garuda series.

Photo Kano - Assorted Events Translation

It's been a month since I wrote a post here and now I'm writing Photo Kano-related stuff yet again. How much of Photo Kano fans am I?

As most of people noticed, the anime are rushing stuffs. They combine both story L and story H parts of each heroine arc on one episode, so of course they had to cut many interesting events from the game, especially from the sub events. Thus, on this entry I want to write some interesting events from the game that the anime cut, with the exception of Kanon route's events which I don't know whether the anime going to adapt or not tomorrow.

Take note that my PSP has broken recently, so I write this based on my memory. Check more of my Photo Kano summaries on this post or this post. Enjoy =D

Photo Kano Love Love Morning

Whaat? Another Photo Kano post? Yep yep, on this post I'd like to share the drama CD that included on the Photo Kano Kiss PSVita game, "Love Love Morning". As you may guess from the title, this drama CD tell each girl (only the 9 heroines, no Narita or Uchida)'s morning the day after the end of the original game, ie. the confession happen.

It's quite nice to know what they think of the new relationship with the MC. My favorite on this one is.... hard to pick only one, but Rina (she hums MC's original love song "Love Love True Love" on her H route, Erina appearance, and Rina's delusion of she and MC feed each other are love) and Mai (can't sleep due to happiness, Mai y u so moe) are my top 2. It's also nice to know how Tomoe and Momoko can still stay at Kouga for one week (Tomoe's family is moving first and Momoko had short job offer on Koga), cheap sure but what the hell, if the setting is that so be it.

Photo Kano - Sanehara Hikari Digest

'Sup guys, been awhile since I last post. My PC got attacked by malware, I got major lag so I only able to do stuff in Safe Mode. Tried many softwares but the problem keeps coming, and I was too lazy to format/reinstall the whole thing since this season there's so many tv series I watch, but fortunately this week many US tv series are finished for now. So if you're waiting for my figure review, hang on there, I have like 3-4 figures I want to do but probably not in short future >.>

Buuu~t, I'm not here for telling my bad luck, but to post for more, yet again, Photo Kano stuff. Have you watched the latest episode of the anime? Yeah it's Sanehara Hikari arc. Unfortunately due to episode quota, we only have 1 episode for her (as well as the rest of heroines) thus it feels rushed. But for me it's more enjoyable than Haruka route that had 2 episodes. I mean Kazuya wasn't wimpy, less drama, and those few last scenes and photo board on Hikari room really make up for the romance even if there weren't proper confession and kiss scene. That's why, for the anime-only viewer Photo Kano fans out there, I want to spread more Hikari love with these information about her, as well as my two favorite scenes of her route from the game that unfortunately didn't make it on the anime. Hope you enjoy it :)
