Ren's a Hunter. Black Rock Shooter – Revealed

So Black Rock Shooter's reissue is out! Having heard the news, my itchy fingers tentacles decided that they should type out my feelings for BRS.



When I first saw the pictures of Black Rock Shooter (BRS) figure – canon version, I am mesmerized by the look. The overall feel. This slim young lady with body covered with scars who has a gloom look on her face. This look is something that screams out loud to me.

Should i change my name?

People!! SHOULD i change my name?
Can i not be called Tako anymore??!

TAKO!!

If you guys had heard about my fellow friend called Paul who resides in Germany, he's the reason.

This world cup has changed my life. With referees changing the destiny(s) of countries to having 'Octopus Oracle'!!!

W杯 !!! 日本、見えた戦うスタイル

Has any one of you been catching up with the ongoings? Well, both Ren and Tako are.

Ren – The rational football fan of selective countries.
Tako – The emotional football fan of the same countries.

At times, Ren cannot really understand BUT still have to endure my complaints during certain matches. Ren has to cajole me like a child, otherwise I can go on and on and on and on and on.. about the Referee to the players. I am really a VERY emotional & naggy football fan. LOL.

I can repeat “oh my goodness” no less than 10 times in like one sentence and “oh man!” of varying tones up to any maximum limit possible.

Due to lack of sleep, very disappointing moments, & work, Tako’s temper has not been really good and is having a really bad flu now. As for Ren, he's not too well too. Got to drink more water.

How can Tako not talk about the soccer that Japanese are playing? How can Tako not applaud the Blue Samarais who have come so far? How can Tako not cry with them at PSO? How can Tako not be crushed?

This post is unique from the rest. I have started on this post since Japanese team started their World Cup expedition. So you will notice changes in the mood with different matches. And it is going to be a long post.

私たちはダンボーです! どうぞよろしくお願いします.

After a round of Tachikoma(s), what caught Ren’s eyes?

Boxes + Movable Joints = Revoltech Danboard
Is that enough? No. NEVER. It needs to be a limited edition too.
Boxes + Movable Joints + Limited Edition = Revoltech Danboard Amazon Box Version
Is one enough? What do you all think?

Ren and I had a habit of telling each other what are the stuff we want to buy, so both parties will have to agree before we buy anything.

So, Ren got into the process of putting up his marketing proposal to Tako for approval.

One day, Ren popped his iphone to me and this photo is staring into my face.

When Ren meets Blue Tachikoma Nendoroid

This “love-and-hate” story started about in April 2010.

Ren was online keeping himself updated with all the happenings around and he bumped into this photo of a blue Tachikoma Nendoroid with a small machine gun. This started the cursed adventure of Ren with Blue Tachikoma Nendoroid. All along, the nendoroids that we had been collecting are female characters. There’s no male and no robot.. So when Ren recalled that there was a previous release by GSC for Tachikoma Nendoroid, he was interested and started his hunt.

When Tako gets jealous..

Ren has been very busy, and what was he busy with?? His personal assistant, Tako, is here to tell you the details. OR you may call it a COMPLAIN. (Hahaha..)

First, Ren was busy with army work. Then he was still doing the room renovation in between his army breaks. Then in between his room renovation breaks, he was busy with Unicorn. AND in between his Unicorn breaks, he was busy with a HG 1/144 O Gundam.


So tell me, is he busy?

I have seen his table filled with Unicorn parts and he was telling me how stressful it was to build Unicorn, so a filler for his Gunpla projects – O Gundam.

Introducing こどものじかん (Kodomo No Jikan )!!

It seemed a million years since Tako has made some noise on the blog.. so I have not been up to something. I have been leading my boring life of home -> work -> home. Nothing much! It had really shocked me of how boring i have got!

But there are some interludes here and there but just did not get down to posting it up.
SOO this morning, on my way to work, i have decided that i shall DO SOMETHING! writing about my こどものじかん (kodomo no jikan)!

Well, is any one of you planning to collect or have completed collecting a set of nendo from the same series? Like the famous vocaloid series, or superbly popular K-ON series? Well, Tako has proudly completed one series. こどものじかん!!

(look at the numbers, 60, 85, 98.. it almost took a million years to complete the set.
