I really like YUI’s outfit in this PV (the skirt). I used to have the wallpaper from this single on my work computer.

Here’s the wallpaper (re-post)

I’ve just uploaded 80 pictures of Korean actress Han Hye-jin (한혜진) to the gallery. I started at 300 and tried to select only a few. At 80 I gave up

Hye-jin is the star of the drama Be Strong Geum-soon that I’m currently watching on DVD. It’s a great drama.

Guess what? I’ve finally taken some photos of my Another Blood figure. This figure is sculpted by Wu Boo Hong for Max Factory. This was the first figure I ever pre-ordered (or, when I think about it, it’s the second - I pre-ordered the Revoltech Pocco figure before this one). I just had to have it.

The photos perhaps look a little dull with the black background. I wanted to try black, but I’m not too sure about the results. I also couldn’t choose which photos to post, so I ended up posting all of them. You can pick which ones you want to look at

There were some rumours flying around before the summer about BoA planning to make her debut and release an album in the US. This has now supposedly been confirmed by SM (her Korean label) at a press conference on 2nd September. There’s no word yet as to when the debut would be made. BoA is supposed to hold a press conference about this on the 10th September, so there should be more info on this soon.

BoA’s 2009 calendar is available for pre-order. I loved the 2008 calendar, previous calendars not so much. The cover looks good, but I think I’ll wait until I’ve seen more pictures before ordering it. It looks promising though. It will be available on October 4th.

Yuko Fukudome continues to be very popular (in the statistics for this site), so I thought I’d post a selection of scans from her photo book 17-sai no live that I ran into (I didn’t scan them myself).

This is completely random, but I ran into this photo of Ai Otsuka yesterday. At first I just thought “ooh, a nice Ai picture I haven’t seen before”. Then I looked at her sweater. It looks like it says “Gustavus Adolphus”, which is the Latin name of a Swedish king (Gustav II Adolf the Great). He was the founder of the Swedish Empire.

This is kind of old news, but I had totally missed this. Apparently Maki is leaving HIGH and MIGHTY COLOR by the end of the year. This was announced in their official blog July 2nd. This supposedly has something to do with Maki getting married to Masato Nakamura (who is 29 years older by the way).

What can I say but: NOOOOOOooooooooooooo!!

I wish Maki all the best, but I’m sad to see her leave the band

Here’s a bigger version of one of Ayu’s Wacoal lingerie posters that I posted earlier.

When I got back from a trip yesterday, I found that I’d received my Max Factory Another Blood figure. It will go great with my Al Azif figure. More about this later.
