A little something about me because this section is technically an βabout meβ section and not a βwhat have I been doingβ section. So, yeah, just some quick fire.

9. Great Teacher Onizuka
10. Spice and Wolf
Anime-Manga Related Collections (Personal Stand Against Piracy):
As a third-world country, the idea of βsupporting animeβ here is almost not an option. Granted, I do have an active crunchyroll account, I donβt think itβs enough to support my dying hobby. So, whether itβs buying manga (available mangas here are doraemon and volumes 1 and 2 of Fairy Tail and Attack on Titan. Iβm not the biggest fan of Fairy Tail but Iβll probably buy those too just to contribute to the cause), or buying gunplas, Iβll support the industry as much as I could possibly can. And if some countrymen are reading this, I oblige you to do the same. Letβs show the distributors that our country wants the βotakuβ culture to grow so that one day, not only Attack on Titan or Fairy Tail will be displayed on one stand in our favorite bookstores but a wide variety of things that we really like.
So, in regards to my small collection (I started last June so itβs still a bit small), here they are:
π Image
Bandai-labeled Gunpla kits. I did not include the Tallgeese because that one is a bootleg

I also bought an NG version of Nu Gundam but I will not touch it til I complete the tools I need (really small screwdriver, paintbrush, and paints). Also, this kit was made in 1988. It's 6 years older than I am... I... I'm not worthy!
π Image
Oh, yeah, and I bought volume 3 of Attack on Titan last week too.

My Saber nendoroid finally arrived. It was covered in dust and smells like shit... Why?
π Image

π Image
Costs me about 70 bucks. Customs really love to fuck me.

Finally finished my MG Sandrock and he looks smexy...

It would have been nice if Bandai added the cloak like in the Endless Waltz OVA but reading through the internet, I'm one of those who believe that there will someday be an add-on because there are parts in the kit as to where add-ons can be installed. So I'm looking forward for that.
12-09-2015:
This is awesome. It comes with a stand too!

MG Sazabi ver Ka. I've recorded a VLOG for this. I'll probably upload it in the future. Kit aside, just an absolute beast.
Size comparison. Remember, Sandrock and Sazabi = Same scale. 1/100.

What have I been doing lately:
I'm currently on a Gunpla building hiatus and is now playing JRPGS. I just recently finished Eternal Sonata (I think I know where Sword Art Online got an idea) and is currently playing Demon's Souls, Tales of Symphonia(+Dawn of The New World because of the PS3 Remaster) and Tales of Xillia. Well, there you go. That's the reason as to why updates don't happen regularly. I'm just burnt out of anime for now. Let me play in peace, please?
