Update: Didn’t mention this before, but i’ll be doing Aika on Thursday, Amu on Friday and Saturday and Hachi on Sunday!

While Itasha doesn’t really mean Otaku car but Painful Car

The word Itasha (痛車(いたしゃ))describes a car that has been plastered with anime stickers and other form of decoration. Literally means “pain(痛い(itai)) car(車(sha))” and for some reason the kanji for “pain” was chosen as it sounds like the “ita” from イタ車(itasha)which means Italian Car.

Taken from DannyChoo.com

It’s always been a dream of mine to have my own Otaku car, one plastered with stickers and decals of my favorite Anime characters and finally i did it! My biggest reason for never doing this before were my parents objections. Technically it’s not my car, It’s the one i drive mainly and no one else drives it. Yet my parents pay for it and the insurance.

Well they finally gave me the clearance to plaster the car after i assured them that all the stickers are removable and that it won’t damage the paint whatsoever! I did these all myself with my own printer since each sticker was going to cost me an arm an a leg and this way it only cost me ink and paper costs… I’m very proud of how it came out!

Since my parents claim it to be “my” car i have to also pay for any repairs of the car, which is understandable since they pay for it in the first place. I’m missing two parts on the front a metal plate that goes over the grill and small triangular piece the goes by the right headlight. But the metal plate costs $400 and the the triangular piece $40. So since they aren’t necessary i don’t bother fixing them.

I’m very glad at how this came out, I wish it could have been bigger but this is the original resolution of this picture and any bigger would have been pixelated. The charcacter is also Sakura from Card Captor Sakura my all time favorite anime!

The rest of the car i all Gurren Lagann. Since Yoko and Kamina are my favorite characters from GL it was hard to decide on which images to use for them.

I think bigger might have been better for them but then the size would have made it overlap the windows and i didn’t want that.

Love the detail of this image and i left the bullets on the car, i was going to cut them out but it thought it looked much cooler this way!

I was so tough finding a Kamina image that was gar yet had enough detail. All the images i found were of the back of him or far too small.

I was going to use a different image for the back window. One of Simon walking away, but i liked having the Gurren Dan logo instead!

My biggest worry with this sticker was being able to see outside from the inside of the car, luckily it doesn’t block much of my view while driving!

Passenger side with Simon and Nia. So many images of Simon to choose from but i really liked this image the best.

I don’t know what it is about this image that i liked the most, but he looks so cool.

Last but not least Nia. I loved this image of her, while it would have been awesome find a Anti Spiral Nia for this image i couldn’t find one that i liked that was big enough.

What’s better than hanging out with your best friend finishing up your last minute cosplay for ax? PLAYING WITH YOUR WIGS!!!!

This is mah besterst buddie! She’s the besterst person in the universe! I <3 her like whoa! Today she called me up and was like, hey lets get our nails done! I was like WOOT I need to get them done, and now I can’t type! Woooooow, we hung out, ate yummy yummy sushi, went to walmart and bought the rest of the stuff for our cosplay. then came to my house to sew the rest of the stuff, but then she saw my tons of wigs and we went on a wig party! I’ve got more wigs than the ones shown but they are for AX and i didn’t want to ruin them.

This is my Aria cosplay wig i got i cut and styled it already for the big day but it still needs some touch ups, and my buddie is in my Nana Cosplay wig, i’m still debating on if i’ll do it for AX this year or not…

She adored my wig, now she wants to get he hair cut like Aika… but less emo.

She’s like why are you constantly taking pictures of me…?

i don’t know what to write…

The grudge…

… is going to get you in a plaid skirt?

Silly faces!

This is my “sexy” face, you know you want me!…………… HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I can’t keep a straight face writing this…

I think we had way too much fun today, i’m sooo excited for AX. See more pics of our adventures today at her blog! Malcontent Content! It’s a new blog and she reviews manga, with an awesome witty and smart style! Check it out and put it on your blogroll!

Once again Jenag pulls through and has the video of the new Gurren Lagann Video. This time it’s Viral and pachinko, i laughed in this video more than i stood in awe at it’s awesomeness like i did with the first video. But it’s still freaking awesome!

Check it out here!

Got my Good Smile Company 1/8 Meifeng Liu #2 of the Shuraki series today, and I am a happy camper! She is so amazing!! When I first saw images of her when she was being announced i didn’t even bother looking into what she was from, since i had a strict rule at the time of only buying figures from series i know and of characters i like. That was my way of stopping my impulse buys, but i just kept looking at photo shoots people had done when they first got their hands on this PVC goddess. I started wanting her more and more and i started looking into the shuraki series. I eventually gave in to my wants and ordered her through Kid Nemo Company and i got her today!

The Detail is spectacular, and i wouldn’t expect any thing less from Good Smile Company. From her hair all the way down to her shoes, nothing was overlooked and she’s just so well made.

Now i have to admit one thing, i agree whole heartedly with shino about how hard it is to do Cast off with her. I was so terrified that i was going to break her while i was removing her top. But after a good hour of playing with her i think i got the hang of the cast off deal. But there were some times i was wondering why i bought her in the first place. But then after she was all set up i remembered why i got her… BECAUSE SHE LOOKS AMAZING!!!

Now this is only a teaser shoot that i did at my bf’s house with his crappy camera, i’ll be doing a full shoot later this weekend hopefully.

Picture not related, i just liked this scene from Geass…

I finally did it! After my Ebay account was canceled my wonderful brother helped me out and helped me make an Online shop! It’s going to be mostly Posters and if i sell off figures I no longer want I will be selling them through here as well! I’m really excited for this and I hope it goes well! Who knows maybe I might make this into an actual anime store and sell more than my posters!~
Go here to get to the store How A Girl Figures Online Shop!~

Announced today at a staggering retail price of 10,290yen! But i’m still going to get her! Due October of this year, I’m going to be broke for the rest of the year for sure!

The little reinforce is a very nice touch that i wasn’t expecting!

Pre-order you own at Kid Nemo

Got My Eggs and Humpty Lock today! They look so awesome i’m so excited! I was so worried i wouldn’t get them in time for AX and i didn’t want to have to make them myself since i knew it wouldn’t come out well.

I found this on ebay for $72.00 and there was no way I was going to pay that much for that…. But luckily a commenter linked me to a girl in japan who was selling them and for cheap! So i contacted her and bought them!

The thing i was worried about them most then was the fact of what if they don’t fit in the pouch i already made? Well I’ll explain what happened after this…

Each egg comes blank and you have to add the plaid part, it’s a big sticker and is a pain to get on properly.

Inside each eggs is the Shugo Chara, they are pretty but not the best quality, but then i wanted the eggs more than anything so for me they were a bonus!

And each character is removable

Now the best part was one that i didn’t know of, the Humpty Lock glows each time you push a button and have one of the eggs near it.

Amulet Heart

Amulet Spade

Amulet Clover

And in this one you can first off hear me watching Aladdin in the background, but pay attention to the sayings each eggs makes!

Now as i said sadly they didn’t fit into the bag i made, so i made another and made it bigger!

I pealed off everything off the old bag and put it on the new one. That way it was easier for me!

And now all the eggs fit inside the bag!

Now officially my Cosplay is finished!

Just a quick happy fathers day to everyone out there in the Real world. There aren’t as many 2D fathers as i thought there were… To many characters live alone with dead parents or parents who live overseas. but here are some of the fathers and father figures i found out there in 2D world.

Kiritsugu Emiya

Furukawa Akio

And the father figure Shūji Hanamoto

Well once again, HAPPY FATHER’S DAY!

I saw this today and my jaw dropped… I think i’ve watching this video like 5 times already and I’ve only been home for about half an hour. I won’t bother explaining it just watch it here…
