I’m sitting here staring at my blog as well as reading other blogs this evening. I’m pretty hooked on Anime, Manga and figurines. I have found the Internet to be a dangerous things when it comes to locating awesome, cool and kawaii things related to Anime. Of course, I would have to get more addicted to perhaps the more costly of Otaku items, figurines. I’ve looked at other collectibles and there are a few I would not mind having. Most of the time I forget about them till its to late.
So I’m sitting here thinking that I don’t really let people I work with know much about my collection of figurines. Maybe one or two but that is about it. I may sneak a small one into the office some time to show off but usually that does not happen. I think if people knew the extent of my collection, they might think me strange. No, I by no means have a collection numbering in the hundreds. Don’t have the funds for that or the space.
K-On! Nendoroid Collection
What prompted my thoughts on this was my recent delivery of Asuka and Black Rock Shooter. I have yet to unbox them as I have not figured where to store them. I have a corner that is now practically stacked to the ceiling with the boxes. (I should inventory that pile someday) I also have a list that I keep updating with names of the figures that I want to add to the collection. I check the figures online frequently in the hopes that the reservations are not closed before I decide I have enough funds to buy them. It’s a good thing that I have not ventured into collecting Dolfies. I’d have to explain to the kids, sorry, Saber was calling me to rescue her from the store overseas. We’ll eat next month.
I would think it awesome if I met another Anime fan like myself at work so we can trade stories and perhaps collectibles. I hear rumors of one or two around so who knows. I’m happy I get very little ribbing about my Anime addiction. I enjoy watching the occasional episode during lunch at my desk. Maybe I should pull out an episode or two of Yosuga no Sora?
Well, I guess for now, I’ll remain in the closet for the most part regarding my figurine collection. Sorry girls, I’ll introduce you to the guys at work another day.
