LSK and other misc merchandise and scans

[lucathia]

Pic heavy post~. First up is merchandise that I recently bought, and then scans of them and of previous stuff I hadn't scanned.

Possible spoilers for LSK v7/v8 and 39 LSK.


I bought a lot of stuff. :'D Close ups inside~. I also bought some stuff of Kill No More, No Hero, and 1/2 Prince, but there wasn't a lot available, unlike LSK.


Playing cards. Only the Jacks and above have pics on them, awwww.


Fan, two notebooks, and two figures. The notebooks are really pretty (scans in the latter half of the post), so I'm not sure I'll ever be able to use them, haha. The figures leave much to be desired (very low quality!). But I still couldn't pass them up.


Sun coaster. XD


Some buttons! Grisia and Lesus on the left. Elaro and Hungri on the right.


Folders! They're quite thick. I scanned these, so you'll see them in the latter half of the post.


Calendar (The calendar is blank, so I guess you can just fill it out and use it for whatever year! But it's very strange that the calendar part and the picture part are on two different sides... If I want to use the calendar part, I won't be able to see the pictures!).

Judgment mirror. XD I was going to buy the Sun mirror too, but I stalled for a few days and then it was out of stock. What. XD;


Epic wall scroll.


Grisia and Judgment glasses. They're fairly small compared to cups and mugs I usually use, so I don't know when I'll use these yet, haha. Maybe for juice.


Posters~. (I should've included some stuff around for size comparison...) I wonder why they didn't make posters of the other 6 too...


Posters of Ceo, Roland, and Ludia. Weird character combo, but I suppose it's because Ceo and Roland were featured in the new V2? And Ludia was in 39 V1.

Finally some non LSK stuff. XD


Kill No More! Poster on the right. I bought two of it (and two of some other stuff too). Might be good contest prizes for Prince Revolution.


Some card stickers of Liola, Kaiser, Purity, and Meinan.


Clearfiles/folders of Kaiser and Liola.


No Hero (Solitary Butterfly and First Wind, Ah Ye card stickers), and then a 1/2 Prince notebook. That's all the 1/2 Prince stuff I bought with this batch, haha. Not a lot available or that I don't have yet.

Now onto the scans!


I might have scanned some of these before... But here, better quality! (I bought a new printer/scanner combo, and it is awesome~)

LSK


A small card of Storm that came with the 9th LSK manhua bundle. Are you okay, Storm???? Get some sleep!!!


Knife Blade, Part 1. Laica Metal's side story! Details how he ended up as the Metal Knight and how he got started with his fetish.


Knife Blade, Part 2. Details how Lesus ended up as Laica's conspirator. :'D The 10th manhua bundle also included a poster version of this!


Manhua from bundle 10. Includes Rule 19 and Rule 20. Cover features Supreme Dragon Hell.


The pics used in the calendar. This was also the new V1 cover.


I believe this is after Sun is blind. (V7 cover? Or V5... I don't quite remember the order)


The Demon King. (V8 cover? I don't quite remember the order)


Roland. The pic was also used as the new V2 cover.


Grisia, Aldrizzt, Neo, and Elmairy. Also used as the new V3 cover.


Judgment, Sun, Charlotte, and Stephen. Also used as the new V6 cover.

Buttons.


More buttons. These are of Elaro and Hungri.


Scans of the box of the figures. The figures themselves are pretty terrible, but the box art is really cute. If only the figures looked more like the concept art...

So. many. pretty. things!!!!!!! *____*

I really liked the wall scroll! And this notebook. But really... all of the art is so nicely colored.

[lucathia]

I don't think I'll ever be able to bring myself to use the notebooks. XD;;; I probably will only be using the coaster and the glass cups.

I finally cleared a shelf for all of these books! Now they're all in one place and not scattered all over. It was getting hard to find everything. ^^

[youchikara.livejournal.com]

First, thank you for this wonderfull pics!!!
A lot of questions arise...For example why is there a long-haired version of Liola? What's about the snake-like eyes of Metal.I think it's Metal the guy liking a blood spot on his sword.
There are quite a lot of changes in charatcter design, wich bother me as I prefer the old one ( well I think it's the old one...).
I'vent read No Hero yet but the pics are really enticing. ^^


PS sorry for the mispellings and the typos but I and my keybord had fought long ago...^^

[lucathia]

Long haired Liola is from later on in the series. A few years pass by near the middle of the series, I think? When they're in the other place? I don't quite remember. Kaiser's hair is longer too! Yup, that guy is Metal. I think that's just how the artist draws eyes... (I thought many of the others had cat-like eyes!)

Hm, which character designs did you prefer? There's a mix here from the manhua and from the novels. This novel version is the 2nd version by J.U., which is based on the 1st version by Ya Sha.

[youchikara.livejournal.com]

First thanks for your answers
Kill No More: So the story span some years..interesting I've read only the first three volumes that are placed about in the same time-span.
So he grew his hair...and Kaiser too, interesting, interesting ^^
Metal. Now that you point it out other knight are cat eyes. maybe I noticed only Metal because his eyes are golden?

I prefer the manhua character design especially for Sun and Judge ( and Blaze and Leaf...and Hell). Well I also like Judge with the whip, but it's a different matter ^^. I think it's the first edition chara?

Yesterday I've started No Hero. Nice. I like Charles and I recognized the "environment" of Eclipse Hunter (Even I've read only two volumes for now.)
I'm planning of following also the new serie when it'll start (doll contract)
But...I 'm eagerly waiting the last volumes of LSK , so I 'll be able to read Female warrior ...(Not just for the huge cliffhanger...^^)

[lucathia]

Judgment with the whip is the manhua design~.

I'm curious which way is more entertaining for No Hero, reading it after Eclipse Hunter or reading the other way around! If you know EH, then there's a lot of dramatic irony, but if you don't know EH, you get to discover things along with Charles. Both ways seem fun. :)

You haven't read Female Warrior? :3 It doesn't spoil anything about LSK, so it can be read whenever.

[flock-of-birds.livejournal.com]

wowowowowow! breathtaking, wooow)

yeah, absolutely wonderful)

[lucathia]

I hope they make posters of the other 6 knights too! Then I can line up all 12 of them on the wall... Or not. XD; My wall isn't big enough.

//sobs So much Yu Wo....

So I finally convince my parents to go back to China (and we're going next month!), but instead of Taiwan we're going to Fuzhou. XDDD Pfftt maybe my sense of direction is more shot than Prince's. Do you know any where there that may sell anything Yu Wo?

My parents are a bit against me shipping stuffs. XD Unfortunately. And we're probably not going to China again for like, 10 years. XD //maybe the only way I can get Yu Wo merch is from PR! contests? XDDD

[lucathia]

I was all thinking that there wasn't a lot of new stuff, but then they came out with a lot of stuff in January! I bought all this in January/February but didn't get it shipped to me until March. (And then I didn't take pics and scan until April, haha)

Oh, China! Nice! China and Taiwan aren't on great terms though, so... I don't think there will be a lot of stuff by Taiwanese authors around. There is a simplified version of LSK being sold in China with covers done by J.U., if you're interested in that. You might be able to find it there! If you ever swing by Hong Kong, they also have a different version of the manhua, as Neko Kreuz is Hong Kong based. I really wanted the LSK artbook she made, but it's only being sold in Hong Kong.

I bought some extra stuff to maybe use as prizes for PR. :) (But not a lot) My shipment was getting pricy. :3;;

[sakura-hyuga.livejournal.com]

There's so much merch for it, I'm actually pretty surprised. XD I can barely find anything, even if I try looking in Ebay just to make my heart bleed.

Ah, I was looking for the simplified version! :3 Perfect timing. XD Although at this point I'll take what I can get though. I hope I can, I'll visit every book store I can find. Unfortunately Hong Kong isn't on my stop, otherwise I'll really go on a shopping spree. XD My parents agreed to give me 1000$ CAD for my shopping needs. Almost makes me wanna buy an airplane ticket to go to Taiwan ha ha ha. (Have you heard of Fuzhou? Apparently it's really small...I hope I can find some LSK there or honestly anything Yu Wo)

Poor you. ;v; At least you get the chance to order stuff online though. XD And yay, can't wait for those contests. At least my drawing skills have gotten somewhat better, although it's still not my forte. LOL LOL I play violin, maybe a contest on making a theme for LSK? Pffft I wish.

[lucathia]

I doubt ebay will have much! You would have much better luck on ruten, but most sellers on there only accept Taiwan bank transfer.

I hope you'll be able to find the simplified version! They cost a lot less than the traditional version. (I don't think they have any insert art though). I'm not quite sure where Fuzhou is...

Well, the joys of being part of the working world, I suppose. Enjoy being a student while you can! =P

[sakura-hyuga.livejournal.com]

Well, it's only for me to daydream. XD I can't buy anything from eBay either, pfft.

Um, well, it's in the Fujian province. XD It's a tiny place. And I hope I find it too. XD Time to find the needle in the haystack...

True dat. XD Although I still have years before I have no more school. Well, I definitely injure the learning and having fun part, but homework and tests? Not so much. XD

Could I share your scan pics?

[yu wo th-fanclub (from livejournal.com)]

Hello,

I'm admin of Yu Wo - Thailand Fanclub , i see yr great scan pics and i want to share these one on my fanpage, could you allow me to share? I will leave credit for you.

Thank you so much.

Re: Could I share your scan pics?

[lucathia]

Hi, if it's only a few, go ahead! However, I am uncomfortable with having more than that shared. Please don't repost all of the pictures. Thanks for asking!

I finally realize that Lesus always has furrowed brows. He looks so scary~
I feel like the LSK art is prettier than all the rest (I'm totally not prejudiced)

[lucathia]

He is always frowning in these illustrations. XD But he has smiled before in the manhua! I think.

I quite like the art from Illusions, Lies, Truth. :D
