Dollfies and figures are great and all, but it’s really the anime that keeps me in this hobby. Today, I have a few new anime related goodies which aren’t just meant to be displayed on a shelf ;)
First are some Ghibli films which I acquired through the fine folks over at Not Cliche. Netto and Co. were running a Ghibli giveaway contest and I happened to win one of the two prizes. Lucky! This included the Nausicaa of Valley of the Wind and the Tales From Earthsea blu-ray sets. Very cool! Thanks guys. Nausicaa in HD looks pretty sweet by the way. And the English dub isn’t bad either. It has Patrick Stewart in the cast ^^
Also recently picked up Summer Wars blu-ray from Rightstuf. Purchased this one myself ;) Hadn’t seen the movie before. It was a bit silly at times but still a lot of fun to watch. Recommended ^^
Lastly, I have my new Ika Musume coffee mug! I absolutely adored the Ika Musume anime and when I saw this cute mug, I pre-ordered it on the spot. First anime mug I’ve purchased and I’m glad I did. On one side it has genki Ika Musume.
And on the other side, Ika Musume providing squid ink xD
It also comes with a lid which says “飲まなイカ?” (Won’t you drink?). Hehehe ^^; This shall be my new coffee mug with Ika Musume reminding me to go bed earlier!
Actually, the lid says 「飲まなイカ?」which is “won’t you drink?” which makes more sense in the context of it being a cup ^^;;;
cute mug, though!
Ah, you’re right. My kanji skills have failed me xD
Shinryaku shinryaku coffee musume? XD
Ika ink for breakfast everyday :D
I recently bought Summer Wars off Amazon and was bummed it didn’t have that slipcover! I can’t tell if they just forgot it or they accidentally sent me one without it.
No cover, eh? That’s odd. Maybe it was a special from Rightstuf? >_<
The product picture had one :( maybe they’re switching up the look.
nice stuff!
Nausica is a very cool movie considering it’s age, I also enjoyed Summer Wars, it is a bit crazy ^^
Your squid girl mug looks cute, the lid on it is pretty nice.
I also own one anime mug, but I don’t drink from it, because I don’t want to damage it in the dishwasher ;D
Yeah, Nausicaa is really an amazing movie considering it’s almost 30 years old now. Rewatching the movie has got me interested in the original manga.
I’m going to use the Ika Musume mug but I will wash it by hand ;)
So many awesome goodies!I can’t believe I didn’t even realize Tales from Earthsea got a dvd release in North America x)I guess I’ll be saving my money up for that. I love Summer Wars so much! And that mug is so incredible!
I believe you are correct in your ramblings. And i just love the mug.
