Phew… It’s been a while since I last did something like this. I know earlier, I said that I was in Hiatus with my busy life. The truth is, I still am. The good news is, with extra time on my hands, I got a little surprise to show all of you. Yes, a newly boxed Koro-sensei figure from ABYstyle Studio. I really can’t wait to open this and see how it looks. All I can say is, it looks STUNNING! This figure will probably be my second favorite in my collection. Konomi Yuzuhara’s figure is the only one I like more. Stay tuned for when I took a full photo shoot of Koro-sensei outside the box.
For some odd reason, I completely forgot to show off some of my otaku merch that I have. As you can see, this is a collection, that even though it’s not the biggest, is still a huge collection nonetheless. It’s a collection in the making for over eight years, and as time goes by, I hope to continue collecting more otaku merch that makes me smile, and make my otaku wonderland appeal even better. I won’t lie that when I see these otaku goodies of mine, I can’t help but a happy, and yet, sad nostalgic feeling of the past. Simply because these otaku goodies in front of my eyes symbolize a time when my life was a lot freer, simple, and less intense and chaotic compared to today. Of course, that doesn’t mean things have gotten worse, in fact, the contrary, this otaku vibing has been the best ever for me, and the best is still yet to come. Simply put, things were just simpler, and like the saying goes in life, “the beginning, is usually the most fondly remembered”. A lot of these collected otaku goodies, mean a lot to me, and some of them were given to me by my loving family. I hope to collect some more in the future. The Funko Pops, Tobi Mask, and Travel Mugs are my favorite.
So far, I do like the photo shoot that I took. The angle, quality, and placement are on point, and my merch looks great in this picture.
Even though I previously uploaded a photo of my figure boxes, this one is different. It’s been a while since I uploaded something new, but I decided to reorganize them and make them look better. Overall, I like the way they look, and my favorite part of this change is the Izuku, Uraraka, and Luffy figure boxes at the very end of the top. Also, I feel like the photo shoot of this picture is 10x better than the previous ones.
These are a collection of my figures. From anime, manga, and tokusatsu. Overall, I adore my collection, and I truly hope that I can continue collecting more in the future as time goes on. Also, my favorite, as I have previously stated before, is Konomi Yuzuhara from To Heart 2. Right next to these figure boxes are the plastic models of Gunpla coming right up.
It’s been a while since I posted something like this. I haven’t been doing my photography for my otaku goodies in nearly 3 months. So, I decided to brush up my photo shot skills again. I have got to admit, I have been become a bit sloppy, and I have to get back to practicing improving my photo skills for the next upcoming goodies in the future. Hopefully soon, I can get a better camera and take photos that are out of this world. For now, for using something that’s of low quality, I’d say it’s not all bad.
Anyway, in this topic, here I have, my favorite anime figure of my collection, and that’s none other than Konomi Yuzuhara from To Heart 2. As of 2024 since starting with my anime figure collection, this one from Kotobukiya released in 2005 is my current number 1 favorite, but why you ask?
While her texture, design, and material is basically outdated compared to my other figures, seeing as this figure of mines is the oldest of my collection, that’s one of the reasons why it’s my top favorite (for now). This figure is from the mid 2000s (2005), and as you know, I love my 2000s anime since it is my favorite decade of anime. So I will admit that nostalgia factor does play a little role. Her prepainted color is a pleasure to look at as anime figures during that time were just progressing with minor detail, and for her time, mostly, she looked better than other anime figures during that time. I’d say that she still looks relevant and amazing for today’s modern standards. I also enjoy the face, clothing, detail of the figure, and the pose she’s in. One more reason is because Konomi Yuzuhara is a favorite of mines from both the visual novel, and the anime.
I sincerely hope to make a Konomi Yuzuhara figure collection very soon, and talk more about this series when I have time. I hope you enjoy my photoshoot of her!
One of the things that I have always done being an otaku is to never throw away my boxes of anime figurines + Gunpla boxes as well. For me, anime boxes aren’t just boxes that store your figurines inside for practical use and safety, but they also exist to make your room or any place stand out with strong otaku aesthetic. The way how the boxes are designed and colored, is just vastly unique compared to other figurine boxes. If we want to talk about practical use, then the boxes serve as use for keeping figurines safe when needing to move somewhere else. Just seeing the boxes pilled up all together and being place in a room full of otaku merch everywhere, gives the room, boxes, and every other piece of merch, brought to life. It not only symbolizes what your room is, but it also displays the amount of anime figurines that you currently own. Overall, in my opinion, boxes of anime figures are a lovely collection to keep, and shouldn’t be thrown away. They are nicely designed, extremely useful for transportation, and hold an important meaning for rooms with otaku design. Soon, I will be making an article on the art of anime figurine boxes.
Also, if you guessed it, my favorite box is the Konomi Yuzuhara box from To Heart 2 that was released back in 2005. Her box, and her figure, are overall just well-designed for something that was 19 years ago. Soon, I will be making an article about her figurine, and my story with encounter her back at the Ocala Comicon as well. Stay tuned!
