I'm a dead sucker when it comes to Macross Frontier stuff nowadays. This Moeloli-mode micronized Lt. Klan Klein is the paramount example of awesomeness. Now if I were to seriously expand my anime figure collection, this is definitely on the To Buy list.

Edit: The one below too.

Otakuism has been around for some time now, and people are already quite familiar with the term 'otaku'. Originating in Japan, the term 'otaku' (オタク） was once, and still is, an honorific word for 'house' or 'residence' and is used in less-casual and stranger situations where the utmost politeness in a conversation, so as to not offend anyone unintentionally. However, in recent years, it has become demonified, and associated with a subset of a group of people known as 'hikikomori'. Hikikomori is literally, 'withdrawn and locked in', and is used to refer to a group of people who stay inside all the time, and have withdrawn from socializing because of reasons ranging from social pressures and expectations, to extreme cases of agoraphobia. However, when I say 'otaku' a subset of this group, I do not mean a strictly defined subset, but rather to illustrate that otakuism used to be associated with hikikomoris locking themselves in a house watching anime all day. This is because the term has now spread loosely encompass introverts and extroverts alike who express and obsession in anime.

So I was bored over the weekend and decided to try a game that has been released by Hinano and the blogging community not too long ago. I must say it was pretty well made for an indie game, and certainly not a bad effort on the part of the designers and artists. The game was written in Python, so I could guess they did that to save on the work needed to get the basic boilerplate up and running. But, enough of the geeky stuff. Let's see what these guys have got.
