Anime stuff at Hottopic!?!



http://www.hottopic.com/hottopic/PopCulture/Anime.jsp?cm_re=PopCulture-_-PopCultureLP-_-Anime

So I was at the counter buying my awesome Sailor Moon tee and this lady was a big otaku and I told her that it was very hard to find all this stuff because here in the U.S we are very limited to anime stuff, it is very rare to find anime things in CA. So I left and the next month I saw that they released the SM Cosplay and was sold out after I told the news on my Youtube account. Later I saw that released more stuff such as Vocaloid stuff because of the power of the internet. Right now I will be adding more things on my wish list for my Birthday,which is around the corner, and Christmas. BTW I am assuming that in your local Hottopic store you should be getting more of a selection on anime merchandise and I will sure be saving when I go to the mall :D
Sorry for making a short post but I just thought of sharing this with you all! I will soon be posting a new anime review after doing my load of work to do so please look forward to seeing it soon!

Cosplay Tip #1 "Popular" or Difficult cosplay


                      When doing a difficult cosplay or a "Popular" cosplay and you want this to be done before an
 important event like a convention. First if you know how to sew and work on a project which can take you a month or less than no problem. For people who are just getting into cosplay and want to buy or make a cosplay but it will take you a lot of time, then I suggest you should plan ahead before the event. First if you want to make the cosplay out of scratch (I mean by using a pattern) good but I decide not to. For example if you are doing a Princess Tutu cosplay you could get most of your stuff at a local ballet shops or studios, add on the details, the wigs etc. I use a plain shirt or dress and add on straps, sequence, glitter basically details. I do that and I buy the accessories that I can't find and buy them on eBay like the Princess Tutu necklace and wigs or make the props like crowns, walking sticks, and weapons and of course styling the wigs. If you just got into cosplay and have a low budget this is good for you. If you have enough to buy all of it go ahead I will not stop you but I think making things is better because you save a lot and also the internet has grown and I bet you can find many tutorials on all sorts of cosplay stuff. I hope this helped you and I will make more cosplay tips in the near future.

My Review On: DN Angel


This weeks Review is On DN Angel and the main character of the series is Daisuke Niwa, an everyday average teen boy. On his 14th birthday he declares that he loves Risa Harada, but she rejects him. The next day Daisuke, heart-broken, undergoes mutation as becomming another person. His mother, Emiko, tells him that genetically all males in the Daisuke Family become Dark Mousy, a famous phantom thief. The transformation occurs when Daisuke has a romantic feeling for his crush whenever thinking of her to long. He also changes back the same way. He must keep his family's sercret about Dark, for which Risa has been falling for. Another character known as Satoshi Hiwatari suffers from his own version of the phantom-curse. Satoshi can transform into Krad. Both Daisuke and Satoshi become friends even thought Dark moans about it.

The Characters:


Daisuke Niwa is a 14 year old boy who can transform into a famous phantom-thief known as Dark Mousy. He is in love with Risa Harada in the begining of the series but (SPOILER ALERT!!!) later he loves her sister named Riku. Daisuke is skilled with 'phantom-thief skills' and later misses Dark when (SPOILER ALERT!!!) the series ends both are separated by magic.

Satoshi Hiwatari is a 13 year old boy who can transform into Krad Dark's enemy. He is the commander of caputuring Dark.

Overall Ranking:


The anime was amazing to watch considering my anime friend suggested it to me. I liked the art,music,action, and basically the whole thing. I would rank this series 5 stars because I think both girls and guys would want to see and the series is great to watch and if you like romance,action, and a little bit of comedy then I hope you watch this series because it won't disappoint you. I will post another review up soon! Sorry to make this review short but I really wanted to get this done along with others that must be posted.

Here is what Dark gave back:

My Review On: Kaze No Stigma


Sorry for not posting anything I appologize and...yeah, so this weeks review is on Kaze No Stigma. This anime is about Kazuma Kannagi, he was useless to his family because he was defeated by his distant relative, Ayano Kannagi. The reason he was defeated was that he failed at not being able to use the blaze technique,Enjutsu. The battle for Enraiha, blaze lightning supremacy, was when Kazuma was defeated by Ayano. He was to be banished from the family, After 4 years, Kazuma returns to be reunited with Ayano and his younger brother Ren,who is gifted in the blaze technique. Kazuma returns with a new name: Kazuma Yagami and he also returns with Kazuma becomming a master of the wind technique,Fujutsu. After he has returned, most of the Kannagi family is murdered by a weapon that has the use of the wind technique. Kazuma fights to prove he is not the murderer and follows adventures with Ayano.

Characters:

Kazuma Yagami is a former member of the Kannagi family. He has many capabilities with his use of the wind technique. SPOILER AHEAD: In the end Kazuma takes in interest in Ayano after being heart broken for many years.

Ayano Kannagi is 17 years old and is a master at the blaze technique. She will soon become the head of the Kannagi family. She is undisiplined and reckless in her fighting but Kazuma pins point it at her. She does develope a crush on Kazuma, she also gets the usual jealiousy but she also hates it when he flirts with her. Ayano's power is crimison flame, but she can't control it and she also can summon Enraiha at any time ,with only her voice, while in combat.

Ren Kannagi is Kazuma's younger brother. He looks up to Ayano and worships his brother. He feels that he must be stronger in order to protect his loved ones. His power is the Golden Flame, it is said to be the largest purification effect.

Overall Review:


I love the series but sadly I would rated in 4.5 stars because I expected more of a rommance story with Kazuma and Ayano but if you are a type of person who loves action then you should check this anime out. I will hopefully post two more blogs on two anime series before this month ends and till then watch my preview on those shows. Till then enjoy what the wind left for you!
