I can't wait for the AK Limited Ver art set reprint.

New fuck pillow, etc.

ESPRade / Guwange book has some promise, as well as the black DVD.

Awesomeness. Kind of want, but it's probably gonna be around 10k yen.

[MX7]

Fuck pillow is impressively unpleasant, even for a soft furnishing/masturbatory aid combination.

i assume the book will be too heavy, but do you think the dvd will be under the weight limit GP???

[brentsg]

The Japan to USA weight limit ban thing for EMS is already lifted.

I want to finally see the secret boss of DFK BL revealed! 

[brentsg]

I finally convinced my wife that the DDP series was largely loli free.  I mean, they're robots!



This is not going to help.

I really wish Cave would stop pandering to the moe demographic....but of course, DeathSmiles I/II seem to be the only games of theirs that have had significant sales numbers...so yeah.

Remember this is Japanese culture.. Those images of "lolis" to them are just animated heroines saving the world or whatever.

In Western culture we had female cartoon characters like She-Ra and also non animated like Wonder Woman. These all featured large breasts with cleavage on display, all of them looked sexual in design. It's just that Japanese always have the thing of the young kid saving the world from a great evil. This applies to male AND female characters.

It's not "moe" demographic like you say - it's just Japanese artwork. Do you prefer Western style animation instead?

The image 2 posts above this is a perfect example. It's a mechanized robot and it has breasts! What kind of "loli" has developed breasts like that? I see nothing wrong with the picture at all.

It just seems to me people in the West are way too conservative sometimes in life.

Anyway this is going offtopic now.

[Shalashaska]

Argh I want that BL DVD! But since my recent, previous requests have all gone unanswered (stares at GP ) I guess I'll have to acquire it by other means. 

[GaijinPunch]

When did you ask?  I got like 8 Mushi/DSMBL DVDs at the last online matsuri.  These are far more difficult though, as I can't clone myself.

Nice try dude. The short and honest truth is that a large proportion of Japanese are in-fact fucking deviant perverts through and through, that's both their nature and their culture, and no amount of explaining away is going to change that. They love little girls, and thems the facts.

I don't mind personally, cos they turn out some amazing pornography (children bizness aside) and that gets my vote.

As for that fuck pillow, it looks rubbish because she's drawn totally out of proportion and the perspective is off. I have got an interest in any Guwange/Esprade related art books though (if art books is what they are.)

[StarCreator]

Hrm... only thing that really catches my eye is the calendar at the bottom right of the products page.  I'm also still after the Akai Katana drama CDs and the Espgaluda II Black Label soundtrack CD - do they usually have older products like these available too?

I never did ask formally (ie. sent you a PM), just made a post in the thread. No worries though as I know you get bombarded with pleads and you've always come through in the past. Next time I'll be sure to plead properly.

Wondering if Skykid will moan about the Daifukkatsu BL Package poster will be out of proportion.

...and the PCB is back.

[brentsg]

The limited edition is selling well.  MAKE MORE!!!

Perspective is fine, but B2 = fail.

I have the feeling some people are going to realize how annoying the Japanese keyboard is after this event.

[ave]

Who would use it on their computer anyway?
I hope it's in aluminium like the Apple keyboard and the buttons must have some shiny surface.

The Daioujou strap with five hypers on it seems like a nice idea. I can't really be bothered with all the other (non-OST, non-book, non-game) items though, it seems like a giant cave whore cash making machine. Who wants a Hibachi jacket, come on? I think a little less would be much more, but as long as people buy it...

@anyone who will attend the Winter Festival:
Is it too late to announce interest on a CAVE history book for 5000yen?

Probably not.  I don't think anyone has asked me this time.
Would be nice if Kaneda would come with me... if for nothing else than to cuddle up and keep me warm while I wait in line.

Seconded, as I'm still without the book.

[GaijinPunch]

PM me -- the book shouldn't be an issue as long as they have stock.

[relik]

Really interested in heading along to this on my holiday to Japan!

Bit confused about how it works though.
I need to turn up at Akihabara HEY 1F to buy a ticket on the day?
How much is the ticket?
I am hoping after that is should be obvious where to go
Seems tickets go on sale at 7am but I should be able to turn up later like 10am to grab a ticket?
Sorry just using google translate to figure out the details as my Jpanaese is not great!

Any info would be appreciated.

This one isn't going to be as big as the last, right? I'm not real keen on waiting in the cold at the crack of fuck on those grimy Akiba sidewalks, but it was fun hanging out last time and I'd like the DVD...

[GaijinPunch]

Not sure...  the last one worked well  b/c there was some type of covering.  If it rains, it will just be shitty as fuck.  But, hopefully we'll be blessed with this (mostly) awesome winter we've been having. 

I'd love to show up at 9AM and make a day out of it but I just can't handle getting home at 6PM b/c o this shit.  If I go in the middle of the night, I'm home by 11AM to hang out and enjoy the Xmas holiday w/ my family.

[drunkninja]

Any chance you'll be able to pick up extra DVDs?

[Kewing]

Aw, fuck, Cave. I had promised myself not to buy anythign else for a while... No wonder that the presence of ESPRade/Guwange artwork was strangely absent in the history book. I think that was a bit cheap of a move; they better spice the new book up to make up for it. Guess I'll wait a bit before taking the plunge like with the history book.

Is that CD-ROM some sort of collection of desktop accessories from all games? That could be interesting.

Also, one recent blog plost hints at the release of the DFK BL arrange soundtrack (most probably on february matsuri, this current one is surely too early). If it's all Ketsui music, this is the 3rd time it gets arranged. I wonder how virt will manage to make it interesting.

Depends on your definition.  Definitely can, but they've all been claimed (and then some).
