Other Otaku Stuff

If I had to list anime-related collectibles, the main goodies I have in mind are figures, obviously, but also clothes, artbooks, dakimakuras and mugs.
I do not pretend I am collecting mugs though, but recently, three new ones have been added to my very first « Haruhi-ism » mug.

Even if it started a while ago, I only found out the Anime Blog Awards event recently. And I am a bit ashamed to not have had the time to participate in the first nomination phase. The range of blogs I visit is actually very restricted, so make a selection among nine categories was a bit too much. But I am not looking for any excuse ^^;

However, I want to congratulate the ABA team for this great project. Till now, I have to admit I was very centered on AnimeNano and Figure.fm members blogs, and did not really tried to “go” elsewhere. And I am glad to be able to discover new blogs through another portal than rss aggregators.

And well, the reason why I have been aware of it is because mukyaa.com has been nominated for the Best Figurine Blog award. This really makes me happy. Thanks for your support!

Animasia is a festival about Asian culture, organised by the nonprofit organization called Mandora, in Pessac, France. Last weekend was held the 4th edition, where I set up with three friends an exposition, featuring what we are a lot collecting : anime character figures!
But I will detail our booth in a next article. In the meanwhile, here a description of other nice stuff I have seen when I was not in front of my stand.

This months updates were quite in stand-by on mukyaa.com, and I have been rather distant from otaku blogosphere too. Busy at work, purchase of some very addictive games such as IDOLM@STER Live for You! on Xbox360, and on PS2 Odin Sphere and Persona 3 ^^; sorry orz
And at last, I had to prepare a figure booth we held last weekend with friends at a convention taking place in Pessac, near Bordeaux (France) : ANIMASIA.

A nice event and a great experience for us, but very exhaustive since there is two hours drive between Bayonne where I live and Bordeaux, and moreover we had to move our clocks one hour ahead of local standard time between satudary an sunday, according to Daylight Saving Time.

Anyway! I will post some pictures tonight, local time, so in more or less 12 hours, to share with you what a convention about Asian culture can look like over here ^^
