Why I loved Final Fantasy X

I love Final Fantasy. I really how they really pull you in with their games. My one of my favorite game in the series would have to be the very first one I played, Final Fantasy X.

I can't remember my very first thoughts of it, I just remember my cousin showing me it one day.  What ever I was thinking, it must have been good thoughts. Before long it had pulled me in as well, and we ended up playing it together even going as far as trying to play though it start to finish in as short period of time as we could. We had Final Fantasy fever bad.

One of my favourite character was Yuna. I loved how she could summon Aeons. Looking back I think being shy helped connecting with her as a character as she wasn't exactly the most outgoing character in the game. 

I also really loved the cutscenes. They were at the time really detailed and realistic. I loved it and I would rewatch some of my favourite cutsences again and again. My favourites were the opening sence and the lake sence with Tidus and Yuna.

Food Wars

Food Wars isa manga about a boy named Soma who aims to one day surpass his father's cooking skills. It follows his time spent at a elite culinary school after his father closes his restaurant.

The first thing I would like to mention about this book is the boobs. There are a lot of large chested females in tight or revealing clothing in this book. This gem was in the first couple of pages. You have been warned.
Girl being attacked by the squid she is eating? Yep that's normal.

Once you are you able to over look that little feature, it's actually not that bad.

I went into this knowing very little about it other than a guy going to a cooking school. To start with I thought it was going to be a lot funnier than what it was. There were a couple funny moments, don't get me wrong, they just weren't as funny as what I thought.

It also reminded me a bit of Ouran High School Host. Someone who isn't rich and powerful goes to school with lots of rich and powerful. The school Soma goes to is the elite of the elite of cooking and lots of kids with strong cooking family history go to it.

I'm guessing Soma isn't up with it when it comes to the best of the best as the judge he had to impress was one, and he had no idea. She gave everyone one chance to withdraw her test and they all ran off expect for Soma as they were so scared of her.


They actually included a repice for what Soma cooked. 

I think it would be interesting to see how this turns out. It's certainly a bit different to what I normally read.

Unboxing of Super Dollfie Graffiti Shizu Darling - Kimono Version

Recently I brought a new Super Dollife and I thought I would share some photos of her unboxing. She is a Super Dollfie Graffiti, which means she is one of the larger dolls, and she is the Kimono Version of Shizu Darling. I have decided to call her Rose.

So she was shipped in a big boring brown box. I didn't noticed at the time, but the photo doesn't actually show how big the box was.


Inside the big boring brown box was her actual. I keep all of those box, and I really like this one. Its really cute. It also came wrapped in one layer of bubble wrap.

This is what it looks like inside when you take off the lid. On the top you can see her Kimono, feet, shoes, wig and her booklet. Hidden in the box at the end are some legs, which I didn't realized at the time. 

 Once I got everything out, I found her really well wrapped in bubble wrap, inside the two pillows. Talk about good packing.
 I used a pillow to hide her nudity, but as you can see, she came with a face guard to protect her face, and her feet and part of her legs and her hands wrapped in bubble wrap. What you can't see due to the pillow is that her neck and arms were also wrapped in bubble wrap. I must admit, as well as my other dolls were packed, Rose would have to be the best wrapped doll I have got so far.

 When I got the bubble wrap off the legs, and had a closer look, I was a little confused. I noticed that there wasn't a joint at the ankle. I knew that every doll I had got so far had a joint here. I also received a pair of feet with a joint. I would also like to point out that the feet with a joint are flat, and the feet without a joint are heeled.

I
It was at this point, I looked a bit harder, and found those leg parts in bubble wrap hidden in the little box at the end. Now I will be able to change to jointed flat feet.
Included was the standard Super Dollfie guide book that you get with every doll, and a booklet for just the doll I got. Inside this book was a picture guide to how to put on the Kimono as pictured below

The Kimono was nicely packaged all together.
Every thing put on! She is so much prettier in person, and I can't wait to get more photos of her!
