Since kaze is away, I’ll be sneaking in another touhou post♥ kukuku. *_*
Oh, and the cute reimu pic above is from Collection:R (to be sold at comiket77 for 300 yen) by hagiwara san at pixiv♪

With the nico fans incessantly refreshing/reloading the bad apple shadow style vid daily, just so they can drop in nonsense messages like “this is my 3rd time today!”, the godly bad apple video has just crossed the 4.5 million views within 1 and a half month (ha! take that miku fans!!), wktkP, known for his 3rd MMD cup miku’s favor PV, has blessed touhou fans with another wonderful PV to add to the nico touhou PV collection. The fascinatingly well-orchestrated MMD touhou battle video is accompanied by touhou doujin-music circle Syrufit’s hit, Arc of Dream.

Samples of the video up to sample 29 had been uploaded continuously on wktkP’s zoome page for nearly 2 months, until early December when only sample 12 (approximately half of the video) is left to invite serious drooling from hardcore fans. The final verison of the video was finally uploaded on Sunday. 2-months time was definitely quite a bit of waiting, but after seeing the final product, all I can say is that it was well-worth it!!

The video features mainly reimu in battle with remilia, with marisa appearing for a short moment towards the end, in what seems to be a slightly abrupt wrap up of the video.. as the comiket76 PV version of the song used is only 2:59 minutes. Nonetheless, the video is sure to please touhou fans as it has already garnered more views than wktkP’s last works.

Arc of dream is a remix on reimu’s theme [Shoujo Kisoukyoku (maiden's capriccio) ~ Dream Battle] from imperishable night, sung by Meme san.

and yes, ít’s a personal favorite. ^^

OMG, JUST LOOK AT MARISA!!! Omochikaeri~~ .. supposing the person huggling marisa (nooot fair! let me hug her tooo ><) is not a child, Gift online shop’s new touhou nuigurumi (plush) series EX, which includes Marisa and Reimu, are huge and sooo adorable!!! Forget the trouble of getting a spouse to manifest a loli, you can just buy these!! They probably don’t talk much, but that’s besides the point. Either way, these are definitely a must-have, if possible, for touhou fans as well as fans of cuteness! Never mind the inferior nendroid plus series hatsune miku and hatchune miku plushies released earlier in August by Gift online with a 2nd production line out this month, these plushies are so much better!! I mean, these giant plushies (70 cm while sitting down) potentially sends all the once-trendy otakus going around town with their dakimakura girlfriends out of fashion!!

Come Friday November 13, 2009 21:00 JPT and the touhou EX series will be available for pre-ordering on Gift online shop.. now I gotta figure out how to get my perv hands on them. The shipping fare must be huge.. >_<

*Update (10 Nov 2009, 5:06 pm GMT+8): Thanks to persocom for the comment regarding the price.

The item pages are up on gift online shop site and the price tags on these EX series plushies are a hefty 29,800 yen (that’s 459 SGD, or 331 USD) Personally, I’m willing to pay that much for these, a rl loli would cost more.. but the question is how to get these without using vpost (I ended up paying about 60 usd more on my akg k 701 earlier this year thanks to their wonderful service).. ..and if they fit into the regular size parcel boxes XD.

OMG!!!! REIMU AND MARISA!! so loveable~ *dies* er wait.. not yet. i need to huggle them in real life first >_<

Haaauuu… *drools* The previous smaller series of reimu and marisa plushies as well as November’s new handpuppet series are already availabe at the online store.

Gift’s Kanegon san also announced a couple of other new touhou plushies lineups (not EX series though) to be released in the upcoming comiket77 (Dec 29~31), along with the new nendroid plus series 4 and 5, Kagamine Rin/Ren respectively….

Time to start bugging hobby search or your favorite sites to get them for pre-ordering. ^^

Note: Sorry for the lack of updates recently, kaze is busy with his projects and I’m busy with re-watching kuroko (railgun) trying to jump on biribiri over and over and over. .and over again *loves kuroko*

Well, not much in terms of vocaloid news anyway:There have been news of Yamaha to be releasing 3 new vocaloids soon, as well as a new vocaloid to be released in December from saihate’s author, onyxP, named Miki (possible voice samples by furukawa miki and already has an MMD model in the making) for a christmas album to be released next week November 18, 2009.
