zari-gani posted:I sent Gascoin Company some goonmade champagne-flavored candies from Raley's Confectionary as a Christmas gift (they say "thank you" on them), and they sent me a photo in return! If any of you have ordered from Raley's before (and if you haven't, you should), I thought you might get a kick out of this. That's really neat. You ought to post the picture and story in his thread.

Happinet (the company releasing the movie) sent me a pressbook. It uses a cool Mighty Bomb Jack design scheme.  But they also surprised me with these:  So... Anyone want to trade? I can part with two Toujimas in exchange for cards I don't have! On top of these, I've got Watanabe, Nakayama, and Inoue. ETA: The back of the cards. I think who's who goes without saying.

zari-gani posted:Akihabara stamp event info: Looks like I have a good reason to make my first post since I'm going to Tokyo (fourth time in 3 years period) and all. I'll be spending one month in Tokyo starting from the 18th of December and I'd say I manage in japanese, I've done JLPT3 so can manage in everyday conversation. That being said, I'll totally participate in this event if they allow foreigners too! I'll post some pics if I'm allowed to take any and will prolly spend my whole Saturday budget into event merch table. Also If zari-gani or someone else has any recommendations what tamage places to visit I'll gladly take recommendations, I've only covered Try Amusement Tower so far.

I hope that 3DS Arino on Third Street demo is eventually downloadable some other way. I have a Japanese 3DS but I think it'd need a mod for Streetpass to work with a 10,500km range.

 Korea. Cannes. USA. Cambodia. Now Arino adds a new destination to his list: Paris. Will Arino come down with a crippling case of Paris Syndrome? And will the fans turn out for his trip to the Japan Expo? The two hour special was translated by zari-gani (who wants you to know that she's aware that Herge is Belgian), cleaned up by Hirayuki, with some pick up by Gutcruncher for good measure who applied some spackle while I was away.

Just wanted to add that the challenge in this episode is "Mario & Wario," a SNES mouse game that was never released outside of Japan for some reason.

I blame my excitement for the episode and Tintin to actually read the text. Fun TinTin fact: Marlinspike hall (I think that's what it's called in English?) - Moulinsart manor - is modeled after a famous French castle, Château de Cheverny. I'm going to France next summer and I'd love to visit the castle. Regarding the torrent: we seem to be stuck with no seeder at the moment. *Kortan voice* Nnnnnooooooooooooo TeaJay fucked around with this message at 11:41 on Dec 17, 2013 |

Having not seen the special yet, I expect Arino to continue his Cambodia tradition and express his international love to every passersby. Thanks for the new release! Hopefully we'll get the new website up soon. edit: \/\/\/ that's great to hear! Now all I hope is that the new site won't steal the nearing nonexistence discussion about the show we have.  For discussion, has there been any new events revealed? There's a stamp event on the 21st as zari-gani mentioned. Is anyone going? jyrque fucked around with this message at 11:53 on Dec 17, 2013 |
