Satsuki Ikaruga from Seinarukana – The Spirit of Eternity Sword 2 – is presented here by Orchid Seed as a 1/7 scale PVC figure.
A loli general rides a pig into battle wielding two spears.
I don’t know why, but I actually finished watching all of the first episode – and it was torture.
Darker than Black: Ryuusei no Gemini
Finally the first episode of the second season of Darker than Black has been released and it doesn’t disappoint. New characters take up most of the screen time in the first episode, but some memorable faces make an appearance. There’s also an epic fight scene already. It’s BK-201! Hei needs to get a haircut.

Started reading this manga on a whim today. I was somewhat hesitant to read it at first due to the drawing style, but now I’m glad I did.
Here’s my tribute to an excellent figure community and resource: MyFigureCollection.net (Tsuki-board.net)

Demon’s Souls for the PS3 is being released here in the United States tomorrow, October 6th!
A different perspective from To Aru Majutsu no Index, instead focusing on Misaka and her friends. Since I started reading the manga a while back, I knew what to expect. More entertaining than I thought it would be. Kuroko’s voice is also awesome.
Rating: Very Good
My pre-order for Saber Lily ~Distant Avalon~ from Hobby Search has arrived this morning.
The packaging is very well done with the figure solidly secured inside, and it even has bubble wrap padding the back of the dress. The exterior of the box has a foil surface that makes it reflective, creating an effect suitable for Saber.
Best figure hands down out of all those that are currently released, although I am biased in many ways. The quality and level of work required to make this figure is simply astounding. Even the base it stands on is epic. Good Smile Company has certainly made it worth waiting through all those delays on this figure.
The order I placed during the free shipping promotion at HLJ has arrived. I tried to get figures from a wide range of manufacturers to sample their style and quality.
