芸術は爆発だ

Despite the rain, and waiting half an hour to get inside, it was pretty awesome.

I apologize of the quality of the photos/having my face in the photos. I forgot to recharge my camera battery, so I had to use my webcam. 

First up, the catalog of all the circles participating. 4 warehouses, and they were the biggest ones available. The Jump titles had to be split into two warehouses.  And yes, that's Sengoku Basara  on the cover. There were a lot of Sengoku Basara doujinshis out now that the anime is airing.

England/Japan doujinshi for kiku  Doujin 1 Doujin 2 The Hetalia section was packed like mad. Lots of doujin and fanfictions there. Some even went all the way to make their publications look super professional looking.

From the XS circle Ebiten: Cocytus, a multi-volume doujinshi about the 2nd Vongola Boss and his Guardians. Vol 1
 and Vol 2 The last part won't be released until later this year. This is going on top of my "must scanlate" list.

I laughed when I saw people selling St. Young Men doujinshi. I managed to get one.
(And yes, the manga is about Jesus and Buddha living together. Anyone wanna guess why this one will never EVER show up published in the States?)

A Dino/Squalo doujin by chabbo-445. This one is going to kajiba  because she is awesome.

Hage and Hariya did a collab doujin.

A Lussuria doujin working on the whole family gag  with Luss as the mother.

A Varia-centered anthology

Varia-centered doujin by Hage. This time as chibi insects.

XS doujin with Bester. I was dissapointed with this one though.

A lot of the popular circles like Angelica and Hage also gave out extras. Some people got custom bags if they bought so many doujins from that circle. I got one from Hage, it's this beautiful clear folder. The pic of Xanxus is a promo poster for the XS only event.

I believe all the people on my f-list who enjoy Xanxus/Squalo will like this. So I was visiting the Shijo Animate store before I went to my shamisen class, and I came across these two beauties.
( Doujinshis anyone? 8D )Been rather exhausted this week. And lugging back a shamisen from the train station is not fun. I didn't get back home until midnight Thursday. I had my bike, but it's not like a shamisen could fit in my bike basket and what not. 

I won't be around Saturday Japan time since I'm going on a tour of sorts in Kyoto with Chieko-sensei and the other Gaidai students who take lessons from her.

So I found out that the Yoshida Brothers' concert is on the same day as the field trip to see Takarazuka theater. Well, I 've seen it before and how often do you get to see the Yoshida Brothers perform live? So I might give my Takarazuka ticket to someone who's never seen it so they can enjoy it.

It's to freaking cold up here. D| Souji and I have the heater cranked in our room and there's actual temperature shock between our room and the hallway. XD

Since we had the day off yesterday, a trip to Den Den Town was in order. I should not be allowed in Animate and K's Books  or else my wallet will DIE. I'm already Animate's bitch as it is. It didn't help that K's Books had a whole row of doujinshis devoted to KHR. 2 Xanxus/Squalo doujinshis, a 25 year old!Lambo/Reborn one, and a Yama/Goku doujin. Granted there wasn't much pron, they had wonderful art and plot. (What? Buying doujins for plot??? The world's gonna end! XD ) Besides, if I do want pron, there's always the KHR kink meme, y!gallery, and drawing it myself.

A friend told me that Kyoto has a huge open air market going on the 21st of every month and there's a good chance I can find a shamisen there. I might have to ask Dad for the money though for it. =_=;;; (Better cut back on the doujin buying.)

Oh and I recieved a package from Mom on Monday. 4 cans of spam, 3 bags of mac nuts, a large jar of peanut butter, a jar of strawberry and guava jelly, and a bag of goldfish crackers for the win. X3

And now I just wait for people to finish up their morning classes, have lunch, and dread the afternoon classes. |D
