Merchandise!
Bought Kimi to Boku v10, Kimi to Boku After School Fanbook, Prince of Tennis Kanzenban season 2 volume 7, PairPuri volume 9, Akatsuki no Yona v6, GFantasy October, and Animedia Oct today.
Kimi to Boku! \o/ So much Kimi to Boku! The fanbook is awesome. It has 60 pages or so of Hotta Kiichi's watercolor illustrations. I already collected a lot of it from various monthly magazines, but it's so much more convenient having them all in one place (now I can finally consider getting rid of all those phonebooks, gosh). It has profiles for the main characters, some sketch galleries, two interviews with Hotta Kiichi, three short manga specials (I think at least one of them was included in GFantasy), and the scripts for two of the original drama CDs I always hoped to have the Shirayuta one translated. It'll be so much easier to do now that there's a script! I was having trouble translating by ear (but I wonder if this will be animated in the anime. If it will be, then maybe I should just leave it).
Bought Animedia Oct since it included a small pamphlet featuring Kimi to Boku. There's some anime info in it, with an interview with the seiyuu for the twins, and there's a short 4-koma manga featuring Matsushita.
Prince of Tennis Kanzenban season 2 volume 7 features Akaya on the cover, with Ryoma on the inside. A lot of times, the cover has a part that's cut out and uses the picture behind it as part of the cover. This time... Akaya and Ryoma share eyes. XD; And then when you pull the manga out from the slip-on cover...you discover that both Akaya and Ryoma's eyes actually come from... Jackal's buttons. LOL. The 3 page manga at the end this time is of Shitenhouji appointing Shiraishi as the captain.

Bittersweet Sweetness has now reached over 20k! Except Part 14 hasn't actually advanced much (I was already very close to 20k before Part 14). I've been updating the story over at ffnet biweekly... but it looks like I won't be able to do that this week. ): Ah, but I started another LSK fic... OTL. And went back to poke at Entries 4 (seriously, it's been four months since I wrote the start of Entries 4...)
