New nあくた art dropped in their announcement 👀 x.com/ant0coffee/s...

Very happy that nあくた (@ant0coffee on twitter) finally got to do a full fledged servant. Was one of my candidates for Omiisan's artist... Sadly hasn't seemed to say anything in social media anywhere yet about it

If I did, hopefully it's mostly past tense. (Though I suppose it's still there in part when I don't take breaks in using free quartz). Luckily I spend only for GSSR now; Can't even recall instances I spent 10k yen since 2019 after my Dad died

Anyway, this trial is over. Got the 5* before the 4*...😩

You'd think! But most of the time, so far, it's been rather fitting and not so distracting, given the Rule of Cool the direction follows ("that aura farming!") and the urban American setting. (Sawano even scored a trailer for a volume in 2020 so he's been considered for a long time I'm sure)

Giving me flashbacks to when you got NP3+ Summer BB (the first one) and I decided to "compete" by spending myself to one, ugh. (All my fault, not yours 🥲) Now I consider it much more morally hazardous to give more money to FGO in year 11, so it's been a real trial.
January 24, 2026 at 4:39 AM
I guess I do, I just find much more enjoyment in the characters and reading the story more than I do playing the game. 😔 Doesn't help that all the surplus from 2025's quartz gifting just gave me ammo for a 2nd Olga and a pity NP2 Artoria Avalon.
January 24, 2026 at 4:36 AM
Dang, presuming those were all free quartz, did you get a lot of bond quartz in the past two weeks? (As it looked like you had very few left by the end of the Logres banner.) Impressive luck.... At least I still have plenty of quartz quests left to do, but UGH. Just awful 10-rolls today.
January 24, 2026 at 4:28 AM
Just how many quartz did you have left before this... 210 free quartz spent so far and no SR in sight...

It's really a stellar production all around too, though. Bangin' Sawano OST and directed by those guys who have done some of those really stellar well-animated FGO commercials. If not the writer, think you're rewarding all those other people (and returning seiyuu like Namikawa & Seki)

He won't know you're watching! You're on Bluesky!

On a separate Nakano note, were you able to stop by Wonder Garage? Aside from Demon Slayer, it has some really nostalgic vibes now 👴 (ie TM stuff over five years old and early 00 animedia)

It seems the Queen Emeraldas mannequin made off somewhere since '23, though. It's still just a standee in her place, right?
October 22, 2025 at 10:22 PM
I would've bought more from her, but her other KairiMo books (including what might've been the C106 debut?) seemed to be a part of a numbered series, and the first volume had already sold out. Maybe I was playing it too safely? 🤔(then again, I *did* spend over $300 altogether at C106, heheh)
October 6, 2025 at 12:21 AM
That's awesome! (She's so nice!) Regardless of whether she knew you as "Koji" or not, she *did* seem to know who I was talking about when telling her I was buying for them; I was able to talk for at least 1-2 full minutes. (Would be surprised if she's met many Americans drawn to your husband haha)
October 6, 2025 at 12:21 AM
Gotcha! Seeing how there are some copies among the stickers, maybe you can stick them on things that you'll keep a long while.

Now am I presuming right that you've met hisuiiro, maybe at Comiket? Couldn't help but "name-drop" you (Koji) when I communicated that a friend really likes Kairi haha
October 5, 2025 at 11:42 PM
Glad you got it! Have anywhere good to stick some stickers? (I'm always wary when it comes to fan goods that have a 'one-time' usage.)
October 5, 2025 at 11:30 PM
Oops, just realized that I forgot to confirm which pay processor I use. I do use both of what you mentioned, but I do prefer Venmo. I can send you details via DM as well
October 2, 2025 at 11:09 PM
Sent you a Bsky DM with the details. Doujin are headed your way!
October 2, 2025 at 11:07 PM
Ok, so at least one more question... Might any doujin you have from *possibly around* Summer 2020 have two doujin in one book (w/ both covers advertising each story respectively)? 😬 I feel like every additional ounce might increase shipping, so I want to save you money if you don't want extra copies
September 30, 2025 at 7:16 PM
I want to keep things as much of a surprise as possible, but I do have to ask... Do you have any doujin dated around 8/22/20, 8/13/23, and 12/30/23? 😳 Turns out *none* of what I bought thinking of you were brand new to C106, save for a thin comiket-exclusive goodie.
September 30, 2025 at 6:26 PM
Great. And is it closer to one week or two weeks until you leave, may I ask? Just to make sure I don't stress too much or too little about getting the three doujin to you as a surprise.
