ARIA The Origination Official

ARIA The Origination has officially taken the spotlight at the ARIA official website. The ARIA the Natural and ARIA the Animation can still be accessed from the mainpage.

The ARIA logo of the three seasons:





Aside: ARIA Manga

ARIA V11 cover page features our new Orange Princess. V11 comprises chapter 51 to chapter 55. Chapter 55 is the chapter where Alice graduated from school and was promoted to Prima.

P/S: I'm glad that my 1/8 Goodsmile Alicia figure has been shipped. The figure is now on discontinued status in HLJ. Lucky I pre-ordered it the moment it was available for pre-order. Hope the AIA solidworks gashapon will arrive this week.

Random Thoughts

Returned from my Malaysia trip. I'm working on a summary of Suzuka manga before the Suzuka aftermath post. ARIA Arietta summary post on hold. At the moment I have not pick up any anime from the new season.

Mood: Happy


Manga:
ARIA 57: Akira was worried that Aika would be depressed because of Alice's achievement. But Aika actually got motivated and Akira was relieved.
Hatsukoi Limited 2: A bit disappointed in Kawashita new work. This week's about Mamoru Zaizu and his neighbour Misaki Yamamoto.
Tsubasa 168: Encounter of Watanuki and Syaoran in dream. We learnt from Syaoran that Syaoran and Watanuki are very closely related. In addition, Princess Tomoyo actually paid a price in advance as well.
Cross Game 99: Did Koh manage to catch the ball?


Anime:
Gundam 00 1: Yeah, new Gundam series. Gundam mecha look nice and characters look decent. Got a bit attracted by a female character, Wang Liu Mei. :P Anyway, Exia is cool when battling with the AEU MS.
Clannad 1: Not yet watch...
Kimikiss Pure Rouge 1: Like the first episode. The characters and the animation are good. Kouichi met his childhood onee-san, Mao who came back from France. His good friend, Kazuki got kissed by Eriko for giving back her paper plane? Recommended for those who enjoyed Tokimeki Memorial.

Purchase:
1. My Alicia 1/8 Goodsmile PVC is now on shipping list. Hope the ARIA solidworks collection will reach my doorstep soon.

2. My brother and I went to the new One Utama on Saturday and I came out with these.

I bought 4 DVD sets. These are original but produced/printed in Malaysia. The quality is good but there are no cover pages for the DVD case. In addition, they used minimal disc without negleting the quality. One thing I liked about asian versions is that they usually have both CH and EN subtitles. Total RM 629.90 or AUD $209.


A gift I bought for my girlfriend. It's a disney Mickey mouse nohohon figure or commonly known as Hidamari no Tami. HLJ had it in 2004. My brother and I each got one which cost RM45 each. A pity that there's no Minnie, otherwise both can be used to hold a deck of cards.
