ARIA Winter Version

The gashapon arrived on Tuesday and I was glad to have purchase this. The mini-figures are well crafted and done. It's a lot better than Toyswork which I glad I didnt get.

I was lucky to get another set of the popular young undines; Akari, Aika and Alice as spare since each box comprises 10 figures of 7 types.

It's now backordered at HLJ.


The box, the bookmarks???? and the mini-boxes.


Akari, Aika and Alice. Prima Akira, Athena and Alicia.


Akari, Ai, Alicia and Aria Sachou from ARIA Company


Akira, Aika and Himeya sachou from Himeya


Alice, Athena and Maa Sachou from Orange Planet

ARIA The Illustration Avvenire

Collected my ARIA The illustration Avvenire this morning from the post office. It arrived 2 days ago but I wasnt at home and I cant pick up until weekend.

I MUST SAY THIS IS AN AWESOME ILLUSTRATION BOOK!

This artbook comprises all the artwork for DVD, CD, PS and Promotional illustration for ARIA The Animation, ARIA The Natural, ARIA The Arietta and ARIA The Origination. In additionn, there are some illustration that I haven't seen before.

We are looking at 109 pages of illustration and 2 index listing the publication record of the illustrations.







My ARIA publication collection:

ARIA Origination PS2 II

Aria the Origination Aoi Wakusei no el Cielo Material Collection




Left: Agnes Dumas in 3 different undine uniforms
Right: Example of character profiles


Some scenes from the game.


Two of the most beautiful scene. Instead of having Akari or Alice for the hill scene and the promotion, you'd be able to experience the promotion from the choice of Alicia, Akira or Athena of your choice. Of course, must be the company you have chosen!


So you got promoted to single undine and the other undines congratulate you with a present

Received my ARIA Origination PSII Cielo gamebook. Basically the game offers role-playing as Agnes with a choice to join either of the 3 undine company. As you can see from the photos that I have taken, it's a good quality as the previous PS2 installment.

A wonderful collection for an ARIA fan!!!!

Available at Play-Asia.

ARIA Origination PS2 CD

The Theme CD for Aria Origination PSII arrived today. Expecting the PSII Gamebook to arrive maybe next week?? Available at Play-asia.
