A belated post about all the stuff I bought in Japan. I bought... a lot. XD;;; (How did all of this fit in my luggage? Good question...)


All the Prince of Tennis stuff I bought. Really amazing how Prince of Tennis is still popular with so much merchandise. I guess the merchandise will keep the series going. Even though I'm not currently following Shin Tenipuri, I'm still buying the merchandise. :'D;; I won the huge towel from a UFO catcher. :3;; (It is now hanging on my wall.)

Nyanko-sensei went on a trip around Japan with two of his loyal servants. Here are his travel diary entries! (In other words, Lucathia got bored while stuck at the airport during the first day and decided to fiddle around with her phone. Then she thought she might as well continue for the rest of the trip. These are done on Line Camera.)

If you don't know yet from my random commenting around the place, I'm back from Japan. :3 I sort of browsed through my flist while I was over there, but I didn't comment much. Let me know if I missed anything I should know about! If you asked me to buy anything, I'll contact you soon with how much it was and I'll try to get the stuff out as soon as possible.

I started blogging about my Japan trip over at my private RL journal if anyone's interested. It's locked since I share photos and use real names. If you'd like to follow my RL journal over at [livejournal.com profile] lucathia, let me know. If you also post RL stuff in your journal or if I know you from waaaaay back, I'll most likely friend you back. But if you never post anything in your journal or if you only post fandom related things, I will feel uncomfortable about sharing my RL with you since that journal is almost like a diary. I don't actually update that journal all that much, but I usually blog about my pets, classes, teaching, family events, and the like. Some stuff is not locked, but anything with mentions of other people (names or pics) are usually locked.

I'll post of pics of merchandise I bought over here though. And perhaps a short report on Tenimyu and Comiket, so you're not really missing out on anything. I'm a fairly boring person.

Day 0: From SF to Narita to small Nishi Ogikubo
Day 1: Sendagaya for sports (and Tenimyu), Harajuku for fashion, and suddenly, a shrine!

Sometimes, I feel so redundant with my two journals. This was...supposedly just a fic journal, but I know most of you aren't here for that. I wish I could rename my RL journal something else and rename this one "lucathia." Why the "rykatu" part of the name? Some of you might remember that Rykatu is an original character of mine...supposedly a guy. Half dragon. It's my second alias over the net and what I used over at ffnet before I wanted anyone I knew to find me. I merged the two names when I stopped caring but wanted people who knew me as Rykatu to still be able to find me. Right now Rykatu is pretty much nonexistent. It might even look like a last name instead of a second name...?

In Japan!

I'll be away for this week and the next. I've been in Japan for three days already~. Everyday when I come back to my temporary apartment, I collapse from the pain in my legs. I haven't done this much walking ever. I think I'm finally getting the hang of the train systems. They're really quite something. Very convenient (but so much walking!) Everyone knows where they're going and are so efficient. We have to throw the trash in three different piles (combustibles, non-combustibles, bottles). It gets a little confusing!

There was an earthquake this morning, but I slept right through it. 0___0;; There's a typhoon going on too, but so far we haven't been hit.

Anyway, I'll be absent from LJ, so do update me with what's been going on when I come back!

I'm totally confused with what casting is which, but this was the Tokyo Gaisen Kouen one, where Konomi-sensei showed up at the end! (With the announcement of the new Tenipuri manga. Luke was so moved!) This was certainly a long one. I started watching it before, but I stopped in the middle for some reason and never got back to it until now. I need to catch up before going to Tenimyu in Japan. Rikkai match!! :3 I think my showing is the A cast...I hope so, since I want to see Baba Toru.

this is still sooo random )

Hm, I wonder if I should watch Imperial Presence B cast next...or should I move on to the Shitenhouji match? There are two casts for that too! *flails*

Or maybe I should rewatch Tenimyu from the start and screencap them all. XD;

fandom to-do list before Japan:
- write two chapters of Memories of the Future for [livejournal.com profile] 30_kisses (*flails* on the verge of getting dropped again!!)
- finish translating the rest of volume 3 of Kimi to Boku (it's so cute~)
- finish playing Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn (on the last 5 chapters!)
- make a bunch of decks for [livejournal.com profile] twistserve_tcg
- update my manga list (it's so out of date...I better not buy repeats in Japan!)
- research doujinka who are going to show up at Comiket XDDD (I definitely at least want to buy Satoumizu's doujinshi!)
