♥ { ADORABLE MONSTER HUNTER PLUSHIES }

Eventhough I'm not a fan of Monster Hunter / モンスターハンター Game (even after I tried playing in on my PSP Slim & found it a pretty nice game but character design totally not my type), I still find these plushies are just too adorable to resist !!! ♥.

I personally think that these piggies are the cutest / kawaiiest pig plushies I ever seen in my life eventhough I dont usually like pig plushies / dolls ♥.

I'm so totally gonna get these (above) cats / ねこ !!! they're much 10x cuter / kawaiier than the ones inside the game itself, lol ♥. But unfortunately if anyone want any of these above, they gotta get it by playing at any arcade in Japan since all these are arcade prized items (means that they probably wont be sold in shops until official release their retail price perharps) ♥.

♥ { AOU 09 ANIME FIGURES ARCADE PRIZE }

There's this event called "AOU Amusement Expo 2009" in Japan which just ended recently that showcasing the latest & greatest prize for arcades ♥.

These Yoko & Nia figures seems to be only available exclusively for arcade prizes ♥. 1st time I saw this design though, I wonder if they ever be for sale in shops ? ♥. Too bad it's not fully colored, would love to know the scale & see the review of these Yoko figures ♥.

I wonder if those Nia & Yoko Dakimakura cover above are for prizes as well ? Strangely, I have never seen this dakimakura design of both before (are they new design ?) cuz previously Yoko dakimakura was like this & this. While Nia Dakimakura is like this. So I suppose these are exclusive design for arcade prizes only ? ♥.

These are all due / out on summer (if im not wrong) ♥. So if you're happen to be in Japan on this summer season, do drop by to some arcades & grab these prizes ♥. I would really love to grab those goodies by playing UFO-Catcher over there (they really have attractive prizes) ♥. But I'm not sure if these are UFO-Catcher Prize or just general arcade prizes though, anyone knows ? ♥.

♥ { AKIBA CAT CAFE, NEKOJALALA }

「ネコカフェ　ねこじゃらら」 or Neko Jalala is one of ネコカフェ (Cat Cafe) which is located in Akihabara & seems to be quite popular ♥.

For those who doesnt know what a ネコカフェ (Cat Cafe) actually does, you can check my special post regarding about it here plus some info of several ネコカフェ (Cat Cafe) which are located in Tokyo ♥.

When we were visiting Akihabara last year, we didnt got the time to visit this place since we were too busy hunting for Anime PVC Figures & playing in Arcades, haha maybe I'll visit here next time ♥.

But we still managed to visit a Cat's Playground called ねこぶくろ (Nekobukuro) which is located at Tokyu Hands, Ikebukuro ♥. You can check my full post about our visit to Ikebukuro (including ねこぶくろ / Nekobukuro) last year in here ♥.

I know some people may think it's a waste of time or money going all the way to Tokyo, Japan to see some Cats, but for a cats lover like me it's definitely a must since we cant keep cats in our rented flat (especially some of them are just looks too adorable, cute & somewhat special breed) ♥. It just makes me feels so happy to play, hug, cuddle & pet cute adorable cats :) ♥.

I wonder if how many of you will (or dont mind) visiting a ネコカフェ (Cat Cafe) or a Cat's playground when you come to visit Tokyo, Japan ? ♥.

Pretty expensive price for a floor chair though, but Ghibli products / merchandise are known for their expensive pricing anyway haha ♥.

If you're an Otaku who loves bishoujo 2D characters ALOT & played a lot of Eroge or Dating-simulation games & also happen to have a PSP, what would you react if you see this kind of PSP Skin / Casing ? ♥.

♥ { LIVING COST IN TOKYO }

Since I have interest & plan to live in Tokyo someday, I checked it online to know how much it averagely costs to live there if you mix together all the bills from rent, electricity, telephone, gas, internet, foods/drinks, etc ♥.

Then, I found this a very quite useful video from YouTube which is regarding the Living Cost in Tokyo by TokyoCooney ♥.

So It seems that Tokyo is surely an expensive & costly city to live but then again it's all depend on your income, outcome & living place too ♥. Hopefully this blog post helps to share info for anyone who stumbled upon my blog & plan / interested to live in Tokyo someday like me, teehee ♥.

♥ { FAVOURITE JAPANESE DRINK }

Before I was going to Japan, my favourite japanese drink was only Green Tea Leaf type (お茶 / Ocha) & Green Tea Powder type (抹茶 / Matcha) ♥. I've been loving Green Tea since my 1st visit to a Japanese Restaurant a super very long time ago (cant remember when & where) ♥. But I dont really fancy Green Tea drinks with sugar like Pokka Green Tea (drinking this everyday can really makes you gain weight !!! it happened to me) & other bottled-drink brands though ♥.

あたしのあたらしいいちばんすきのみもの~ ♥.
And this is my new japanese drink favourite ♥.

It's Kirin Afternoon Royal Milk Tea ♥ ♥ ♥. Anyone who love it too ? ♥. It has totally different unique quality taste & not as sweet as Pokka Premium Milk Tea or Milk Tea from hawker / food centre ♥. I only like Milk Tea when they actually use certain tea leaf or tea type, though ♥. There's also another similarJapanese bottle Royal Milk Tea brand but I cant remember the name (definitely not Kirin & not as good as Kirin either) ♥. Anyway, I still buy it once in a while in certain Japanese supermarket in Singapore, but its more expensive (doubled price) than if you buy it in Japan, sigh :(

So do you have / what is your favourite japanese drink ? ♥.
いちばんすきのみものがありますか ? ♥.

♥ { MISTER DONUT }

Do you know about Mister Donut ? ♥. It's probably the most famous & kawaiiest / cutest donut franchise in Japan ♥. I didnt manage to find & eat it when me were in Tokyo last October, perharps cuz we didnt see / pass by any of the branches / stores, boohoo :( *mumbles* Too bad they dont have any branches in Singapore though.

Anyway, I found some very cute videos of Mister Donut advertisements :

Any of you ever eat Mister Donut before ? ♥.

♥ { JAPAN CAT-FRIENDLY HOUSE }

I found this amazing Japan House Design which is Cat-friendly, means that it's also designed for the cats ♥. This is totally reminds me of Ikebukuro's ねこぶくろ Cats Playground where the cats are roaming freely in the house ♥. You can check out my blog post in here regarding my visit to the ねこぶくろ Cats Playground when we were in Tokyo last year.

Totally a dream house for a cat-lover like me, I really wish to own lots of cats with this kind of house so they can roam freely ♥. Hmm, maybe we will make this type of house if we got chance to build our own place / house / flat & live in Tokyo, provided pets are allowed in the mansion or unless it's a ground-house, lol ♥.

♥ { HOBBY COMPLEX 06 }

This is the cutest & funniest Kagami Hiiragi / 柊 かがみ figure, ever ♥.

The latest ホビコン / Hobi-kon / Hobby Complex was recently held at the Tokyo Big Sight ♥. It's an event where figure makers showcase their goods. This event is actually smaller scale than Wonder Festival / WonFes / ワンフェス (the premiere event for figures) ♥.

Since the Internet has become the best source for countless figure photos for those who didnt come to the event yet curious to see what kind of figures are displayed & available on the event, since I didnt come to the event, I decided to do a research / surfing / browse & take a look ♥.

If you're wondering what are those green stuff on her breast, it's kinda like a cencorship stickers to blocked the 'obvious nipples' I guess ^^; ♥.

Some yummy Yoko figures, suspected that some of them are resin / not PVC since I cant find them available online ♥.

Okay, the last Yoko figure photo looks fine from front-view, but side-view just feels wrong especially on her waist ^^; totally a big turn-off for me. I really like the way they make her looks so realistic but they really should fix that waist of her, sigh T_T

Really love this Yoko figures the most (she looks so stylish with her gun & bike), but I think this isnt a PVC, instead a resin kit ? I would love to have it in PVC version ♥.

Even Asuka Langley dressed up as Yoko too, not bad. Love this Miku figures the most (below) ♥.

If I was living in Japan, I'm very sure that I'll most probably be very super broke after attending to some Figure Events ^^; too many figures I want LOL ROFL LMAO ♥.
