The ~dere Thread; but mostly the tsun (& never the yan) (w/some anime) CHECK 1st POST

[MonkUnit]

You could just post in the DR social thread "Oops, ignore this"

 

[Zwarm]

That thread scares me. I posted in there once and the post got eaten up by 2 more pages of stuff in like, 10 minutes.

 

[Sion]

you and me both, zombieswarm.

 

[Zwarm]

Kinda mad, Pure Pure Sion-kun.

 

[Perfect Chaos]

Yay, bigger avatars. :3c

Bleh... Now I have to re-edit my avatar for each color of the week...

 

[Minato]

I'll gladly switch my avatar to a bigger one, but I'm not thanking DR. Ankoku, sure, but not the DR itself. lol

 

[Zwarm]

Bleh... Now I have to re-edit my avatar for each color of the week...

Do you cut your avatar to 100x100? I just cut mine to whatever size it was in the original picture and let SWF resize it, so I just added the same image I had before again, and it resized it to 125x125 for me.

 

[Minato]

Idolm@ster 2 demo for PS3 should be up soon. I am so lady.

 

[Sion]

My body is lady.

I don't trust SWF's resizing. I feel it'll make the image less detailed than if it doesn't, even though I don't have proof either way.

 

[Sion]

there are a lot of things wrong with swf's resizing. also pay attention to the kb limit of images. it ruins the quality if you upload an image that exceeds the size restriction.

 

[Minato]

Stupid size restriction. This sucks for the 125x125 avatars now. Strangely enough in the end, I'm using jpg files now.

 

[Oro?!]

Does it matter for 3D girls?

 

[CrimsonLion]

Idolm@ster 2 demo for PS3 should be up soon. I am so lady.

Do you have any idea when exactly?

 

[Minato]

Do you have any idea when exactly?

It's up now actually. It's almost done DLing for me.

 

[CrimsonLion]

It's up now actually. It's almost done DLing for me.

Just curious but where and how did you get it?

 

[Minato]

Just curious but where and how did you get it?

It's on the Japanese PSN store. So basically just create a JPN PSN account on the PS3 and DL the demo.

About to watch Guilty Crown since I heard it was similar to Code Geass.... it wasn't easy setting up the 125x125 avatar with the 34.2kb restrict. >.< ★

 

[Perfect Chaos]

Guilty Crown's 1st episode's pacing was pretty much exactly like Code Geass's first episode... (Like how similar events happened at about the same point in time.)

 

[asianaussie]

so im not the only person in the world who likes houki best

or i still might be, i dunno

 

[-Rei-]

nope

i like houki

 

[asianaussie]

so why do people hate muv-luv extra/unlimited

they're not actually horrible

 

[-Rei-]

do you want me to spoil it?

 

[asianaussie]

if it takes spoilers to explain then nvm i guess

 

[Minato]

That's pretty cool yet depressing at the same time. lol
I'll watch it by today if I finish my homework soon.

 

[-Rei-]

i'm gonna watch haganai after i read an article

and eat since the free food that was given wasn't much lol

but it was free

 

[Zwarm]

I'm watching way too many ongoing shows right now...

 

[Perfect Chaos]

so im not the only person in the world who likes houki best

or i still might be, i dunno

Houki's been in my top-10 characters list since the anime's airing ended. And I'll be willing to pay $200+ for a figure of her in her IS, which shows how much I like her, since my current record for a figure is $165.

 

[-Rei-]

holy ****

i'm willing to pay that much if it's in the is

 

[Perfect Chaos]

The Black Hanekawa figure I just bought costed me $50 just to ship, and that thing is nowhere near the size and weight of this, so at this point, this Houki will probably cost like $250 after shipping... >_<

 

[-Rei-]

i'm willing to split shipping

i've done it with minato once and offer him every time i order something just in case

although my priority atm is building a pc

 

[Perfect Chaos]

Except Minato actually lives within driving distance from you. XD
With how big this thing is, I doubt domestic shipping will be less than what we'll save if we bundle the order.

 

[-Rei-]

if it's 10 lbs, it's only $15 by ups ground

from irvine to salt lake city (i chose a random local zip code)

 

[Perfect Chaos]

With how heavy the figures are though, the ratio of the shipping box's weight to the package weight is less, making the difference not that much, so the combined box will be about double of the weight of each of the box with 1 in it.
Looking at EMS rates, that would save 1200 yen for combined weights from 4-6 kgs, so like $16.
That few dollars difference isn't really worth the extra trouble of having to work out a payment method (PayPal would just make it less worth it due to fees) for one to pay the other, and either having to actually go out to re-package and ship it, or to further risk it getting damaged while going through domestic shipping.

It's probably only worth it if they offered flat-rate EMS shipping like GSC does, but I don't think AmiAmi Zero does that.

 

[-Rei-]

we can try tokyo hunter and ask for a quote

but it's always an option if you wanna split

just letting you guys in the usa know

 

[Perfect Chaos]

How would going through a third party help with the cost? Wouldn't it just make it more expensive?

Anyway, AmiAmi Zero takes forever to release stuff, anyway. My friend ordered a Hanyuu figure from then over 12 months ago (when it went up for pre-order), and after 5+ delays, it's still not released yet. So this might take another 1.5 years before it's actually released. XD

 

[-Rei-]

depends

like somethings are japan addresses preorders only

that's how i got my key boxset

although i did it with a professional company not an anime person

we don't have to order amiami

i don't really care where tbh lol

 

[Perfect Chaos]

The figure is made by AmiAmi, so they'll be the only ones selling it first hand. And I'm sure they ship overseas for their exclusives, too.

 

[stingers]

I'm watching an anime (Fate/Zero) as its airing for the first time

THIS ****ING SUCKS

how do you people do it =[
i want to watch them all so badly
i cant control it...
