Dollfie Dream Family Photo + DD Gathering Update + OTACOOL
I originally planned to hold on to this group photo session before the Dollfie Dream Theater storyline has a chance to catch up and introduce the new character as a surprise element, but Volks USA has informed me yesterday that I have just hit the "surprise element" deadline >.>;;; Anyway, the long and short of it is that I have picked up a 2nd Sasara back in Hometown Nagoya 4 After Event party...
Dollfie Dream Airi ~ Infernal Tempter ~ Photo Shoot
It's been a few days since Airi arrived at my residence, and I have to admit that I have grown to like her more and more as each day gone by. So it's natural that I put together a photo shoot for her with a proper background~ I hope you enjoy these photos as much as I do :)
Japan Trip Report Arrival and Day 1
How I managed to tour Japan in 3 Days and 4 Nights while hitting all the hot spots like Odaiba Gundam, Evangelion 2.0 You can (not) advance, Kamen Rider Decade Movie - All Riders vs. Dai Shocker with shopping in Akihabara! My assistant Pretty Fräulein Asuka-chan will guide you through all that.
Natsuki Takamizawa’s end, Yoake Mae Yori Ruriiro na, 夜明け前より瑠璃色な
I am just going to say it to get it off my chest, Natsuki Takamizawa (鷹見沢 菜月) deserves more attention than she is getting! Ok, while I don't think Natsuki is in the same league as Feena in terms of elegance and beauty, and she may just be a plain Jane next door neighborhood girl; but she is quite cute in her own rights, I don't understand why there hasn't been a single figure made of her yet.
Dollfie Dream Saber X Buckingham Palace
How long has it been since I acquired the cloak for Saber? Hmm ever since Airi arrived? Yeah, I been wanting to do a Saber solo shoot out for that long, but laziness and procrastination delayed it for this long! Errr, not really, I was busy with other stuff and had the lighting setup packed away and didn't pull them back out until just recently. Anyway, I been wanting to do this shoot out with Saber standing in front of the Buckingham Palace and I have finally done it! I think I managed to pack a few pretty good shots in there, hopefully you would enjoy them as much as I did :D
Feena’s normal end,Yoake Mae yori Ruriiro na, 夜明け前より瑠璃色な
It's been almost two weeks since I started this Yoake Mae yori Ruriiro na Visual Novel marathon run project which includes the original Yoake Mae yori Ruriiro na Visual Novel (2005) August soft, Yoake Mae yori Ruriiro na -Brighter than dawning blue- (2009) Aria soft and Yoake Mae yori Ruriiro na -Moonlight Cradle- (2009) August soft, it's a massive undertaking that I have never attempted before. But after over a week worth of effort, I am finally getting close to the midway point. This project really started when I redecorated my room with three Feena fam Earthlight Dakimakuras and one bath towel, then all of a sudden I wondered about how much do I really know about her.
ToHeart 2 PC version Kusugawa Sasara Part 1
Ever since the announcement of Dollfie Dream Sasara 久寿川 ささら by Volks a few days ago, I have assigned utmost priority to learn about Sasara's story. It's funny that I have been putting it off for more than a year, and I know I have been wanting to do it but the announcement of DD Sasara gave me the final nudge in the back I needed to start another visual novel marathon. I suppose this is my first Leaf game as well.
Trinity of Dollfie Dream Saber Maid Version
For the very first time, the 3 big heads 三巨頭 DD Saber セイバー, DD Saber Lily セイバー・リリィ and DD Saber Alter of the Fate/stay Night world have gathered together for this special photo shoot!!
Dollfie Dream DD Saber Lily ~ Elegant Lady ~
Back in December 2010, soon after Lily arrived, I had her put on one of the maid dress I acquired from Le chat de neige in the Trinity of Dollfie Dream Saber Maid blog post, a highly sought after Dollfie Dream fashion label in Yahoo Japan Auction
Estel Freesia’s end, Yoake Mae yori Ruriiro na, 夜明け前より瑠璃色な
Alright, so I finally made it to the new cast on the PS2 port version Estel Freesia. What can I say about her? Estel is quite a tsundere, more than Natsuki (especially after I started her Moonlight Cradle arc) and definitely a tough nut to crack! I am going to try a slightly different approach and compact her story a bit more, Feena's story was way too long and I probably had way too much details in the last writeup.
Dollfie Dream Daughters Grand Glorious Gathering Sixteen Daughters Version
A few days ago, I welcomed my Sixteenth Dollfie Dream Daughter DD娃娃 人偶 Matou Sakura to my family; and I had Saber, Rin and Ecchi Lion came out to gave Sakura a warm welcome; but that was not all that I had in mind! The number sixteenth daughter also mark the completion of a Platoon!! Since such a significant milestone cannot be ignored or overlooked.... so I have decided to summon all of my daughters together for a full family portrait (it's been a while since I did the last family photo)! This special event is also know as Dollfie Dream Daughters Grand Glorious Gathering, DDDGGG for short!
Dollfie Dream Daughter Erika’s Arrival and The August Four Photo Shoot
For the past month or so, I have been secretly working a large scale Dollfie Dream photo shoot to celebrate the arrival of my fifteenth Dollfie Dream daughter Erika and fourteenth daughter Estel (since Estel never did get a proper photo shoot of her own, partly because I knew I had Erika on the way
Dollfie Dream Kiriha X Sasara with School Swimsuit Maid & He is My Master Maid set
It's been another intense camera action day as I have a lot on my agenda. The first order of business is to have two of my lovely daughters to try out the two of the most adorable maid dress set from Kyoto 7, Sasara School Swimsuit Maid and He is My Master Maid Dress set. There is no argument for who should wear the School Swimsuit Maid, but there was room for debate for the He is My Master Dress set, I finally decided to have Kiriha model for us, why Kiriha? Because she is my most pampered daughter! There will be some hints of yuri action here and there in this photo session, as I finally come to term to fulfill the promise I made way back to take some yuri photos for my daughters XD. Please enjoy~
Dollfie Dream Asuka, Rin and Saber Photo Session
Been quiet for the past couple of days, but I finally started to feel better for the past day so I decided to catch this chance to go out with my Dollfie Daughters again. The main objective this time was to correct a few oversights I had in the last outing so I had to take DD Asuka アスカ and DD Rin 遠坂 凛 out again, but that would be a tad too dry just to keep taking photos of those two so I decided to take DD Saber out with me as well.
Dollfie Dream Kiriha at AnimeExpo 2010 in Los Angeles
I have always heard about how Anime Expo is one of the largest anime convention in North America but I have never once thought about going there myself in previous years. However, the convergence of various factors this year including the chance of meeting some of the friends I have made online at figure.fm, a trip to Volks USA and meeting Danny in person were enough to persuade me to make this journey. So, for this past weekend, I have picked my most pampered Dollfie Dream, DD娃娃 Kiriha Kuze 紅瀬桐葉 to accompany me to Anime Expo 2010 in Los Angeles!
Dollfie Dream DD Saber Lily X Kiriha Kuze ~ Maid Version ~
It was only a matter of time before I put two of my most favorite Dollfie Dream daughters DD Saber Lily セイバー・リリィ and DD Kiriha Kuze 紅瀬桐葉 together for a full photo shoot, the pictures from the New Year Greeting post were merely a preview of what was probably a fact that was waiting to happen; I wouldn't put it past some of you who regularly visit my blog that this was already in the work ^^; What kind of photo shoot would I put together for my most favorite daughters the more mature and sexy Lily and together? Well, I actually tried to throw in a mixture of themes this time, involving the sexy, sisterly love and some light yuri perhaps =3.
Agreed!! Rin needs more love…!! ^^
It’s good to see a fellow Rin devotee out there… Tho you still loves Saber more, right?? >..<
Btw, “Medio to Medio” What’s Medio??
Actually, I love Rin more than Saber. Seeing that I have replayed UBW several times have yet to replay Fate even once. However it would be a tough call if you bring Saber Lily into the equation.
Meido stands for French maid
Ha, I just realized I misspelled meido into medio, sorry for the confusion!
Rin does need more love. I love your her hair, looks so pretty. Great pictures, you just make me want to learn more about dollfies and one day start my own dollfie harem. Speaking of Rin I need to get myself the Figma version. At first when watching FSN I didn’t care for her so much but by the end of the series I really liked Rin. Saber just happened to capture my heart more.
Thanks ^^; The thing about dollfie, one has just got to bite the bullet and get them, there is no waiting since they are all on limited release, the longer I wait, the harder it is to get them. That’s part of the reason why I had decided to get them all now. And yes, Rin need a lot more love, and the only way I can show my love is to adopt her as my musume.
Oh my, Rin simply looks gorgeous! I liked Rin more maybe because I got a fetish for tsundere girls – Unfortunately there are not much Rin figures out there and I cant afford to buy dollfie XD.
Right, there aren’t enough Rin figures out there, too few of them. I was glad to hear when they release Dollfie Rin, at that time, I haven’t even gotten any dollfie yet but I knew I had to get Rin. She does not disappoint, she looks even better here than her promotional pictures.
@Wolf: You love Rin more??!! Yosh!! Nakama da…. lol XD
And yea, Saber Lily is hawt… If there’s a story involving her in that outfit, then it’ll be pretty awesome… Still gonna love Rin more though…XD
meido?? well, theny you got a typo, you wrote medio (twice) which kinda baffled me… ^^;
@enrius: Again, I refuse to classify Rin as a tsundere… Not just because I hate archetyping… but also she is far more complex than typical tsundere…. Apart from being insecure to herself, there’s also circumstances that forced her to appeared cold…
And she is not a sadist who can’t come clean with her feeling… she acts more like a tease… She toy on people a lot for her fun, and she always act with authority and take control of things around her… Those traits, made people mistakenly taking her as a tsundere, which she is not…^^
Hurray for Rin loving comrade!
Yup I am fairly positive that I love Rin more, though UBW show the more gar side of Shiro, that might have been the reason too. I do love the teasing personality of Rin. Now that I see your reason for not classifying Rin as tsundere, I think I see your points there. She is not your day to day tsundere, she has to act cold because of her heritage.
I don’t think Saber Lily has a story, I think the illustrator just want to make her appear to be like a princess other than a king.
@lolipedofin – Aye comrade!
I bow down before your love and understanding for Rin. That is a level beyond my imagination!
About Saber Lily, apart from her background as an unlockable character in a fighting game (F/UC), I don’t know much too. Maybe just a new character design!
Indeed, I too must bow down before the lolipedofin for his love for Rin.
You know what’s pretty weird about my love toward Rin?? I haven’t even played Unlimited Blade Works yet!!! XD All my love toward her simply the outcome of watching the anime…
I’ve already played Fate twice… but have yet to touch UBW… well, a bit… But never even get it halfway done… I just want to spend a day or two marathoning it, in the best environment possible… my laptop is simply too crappy for it.. can’t even get it to full scren without making Rin looks fat… XC
So yea, expect my love for Rin to go skyrocket when I’m done playing it…^^
To describe Rin.. ohh.. I give up.. She’s just too complex to be broken down into words… She is basically the most fun loving character in the whole Fate series… c’mon apart from Lluvia (which is nothing but a side chara) Her story in F/UC is basically the most non-sensible one… ^^;
She had that aura of elegance around her, yet she can be down to earth, rude and abrasive, feisty and funny with a positive mind.. the kind of girl you want to be your best friend forever, yet has such a loving and insecure personality, which made every guys in the world want to protect her…
She can cook, sometimes a bit clumsy… ahhh.. I can ramble on forever when talking about Rin… I have yet to make a blog post reviewing her yet, which I definitely gonna do.. Right after I finish Reviewing Saber and played Unlimited Blade Works….
Simply said, she is the type of girl that will never bore you… The one that can be your best friend as well a loving partner… And the saddest of all is, she is just too good to be true in real life… T.T
Gahh… I really need to get a new girlfriend, quick… >.<
Oh and almost forgot one important thing, her seiyuu is Kana Ueda… really, she can’t get more awesome, can’t she??
Btw, read you comment at DC.com… How do you get this shipped from a lottery event at Japan?? Tensou?? or do they sell them internationally?? Btw, you do live at US, right??
Hmm.. I just remember something… I know I’m still against the idea of adopting dollfie for myself, but just out of curiosity.. I remember I had a family living in New Hampshire, maybe I can enter VOLKS USA lottery, have the stuffs shipped there and then have my relatives send them to me.. Question is, will there be any lottery event for Rin again?? @____@
I can see your love for Rin is strong! It’s a good thing you stop by so we can talk about Rin! I also think you need to play UBW as soon as possible. It is the vital part of Rin’s story. I see your points about Rin, I don’t think I have ever tried to think as deep as you have. But for the most part I agree with your view.
Volks After event lottery is open to everyone, yup everyone can apply. I think Coffeebug won too, not sure if he decided to pay for her though.
Sadly, I doubt there will be a second chance to get her in a lottery. I think the only exception Volks ever made was for Escalayer, she was available at Comiket and Volks dolpa, a total of 2 events. I think the only viable choice you have right now is to go for YJA or try to convince people who won the USA lottery to let you adopt her instead. >.> There is a reason why I went for all six of my favorite bishoujo at the same time >.> cause there usually isn’t a second chance.
Coffebugg…?? I thought He is from Philippines… and I thought Volks USA doesn’t ship internationally… @___@
and yea, glad that you like to talk about Rin as well.. and sorry for spamming your blog… XD It’s just, whenever there’s a talk and Rin is involved, I’m quick to get into my fanboy mode…^^
I know.. I know I really need to play UBW ASAP… but still can’t find the time and mood to do so… my fellow F/SN enthusiast was mocking me about that fact.. both are Saberphile.. XC
Btw, who is that girl who topped the magazine poll?? From Sengoku Rance??
The Volks After event lottery is held in Japan, through Volks International site http://www.volks.co.jp/en/index.aspx that anyone can apply. Anyone meaning anywhere in the world. I only learned about it a few days before the After event lottery that anyone can apply. Coffee was hesitating about it after he won and I haven’t heard from him since then.
lol @ the Saberphile. While saber is cool and all, Rin is just better.
I can see your fanboy mode, Rin is awesome like that, I don’t blame you. I don’t mind the spam at all lol, as I am still troubling over the fact that I don’t get many comments on my site XD.
The one that top the magazine poll is Uesugi Kenshin and yes she is from Sengoku Rance.
Go play UBW, you just made me want to replay it again lol.
OMG I feel like I want a Dollfie now!
NOT!
Haha, yep, I’m still resistant to it. Very nice set of pictures though ^^ Her face doesn’t really look like Rin though, but I guess it’s the Dollfie style. I like her school uniform and jacket version the best actually. Something about it just looks good to me.
Resistant is futile, you will be assimilated. Rin is just too awesome I have to take many photos of her, showing my fatherly love! School uniform set is great, though her pose in her standard dress while sitting down with one leg up is quite charming too! Thigh high + mini skirt ftw.
I have a PVC figure and a figma of Rin. I think that’s enough love I gotta give. xD
Good shoot. I think u shot every angle possible which is great and u didn’t leave the cast-off bit out as well which is better.
Maid to Maid action would be nice. xD
Rin needs a lot of loving from me so nothing less than a Dollfie can fill that void. Meido to Meido is definitely coming, once I get a proper setup.
She looks great! Short skirt + thigh highs = love. I really like how her smirk can look sly or shy.
Love= Mini skirt + thigh highs
Mini skirt + thigh highs = Rin
Love= Rin
Such simple formula justify her existence!
