Futakoi Visuals
Those of y'all that kept up with my blogging of Futakoi know I generally liked the show, and am an especially big fan of Sara & Souju, so I went on ahead and got Futakoi Visuals. In color, it contains character descriptions, illustrations with comments from each twin, and a full "collor" comic for each set of twins. Compared to the simplified (and overall younger looking) character designs used for the anime, they're many times better ;)
Kira & Yura (for Stripey)
Sara & Souju (for Maestro4k)
Lulu & Lala
After all of that, there are six sets of "Date Questions" putting you in the place of the lucky onii-chan/onii-san/whatever in various situations with each set of twins -- a summer festival, a trip to an onsen, New Year's, your "first night", so on -- and giving a set of choices to choose from (answers in the back of course).
Anyways, well worth the money spent on it :)
so... why didn't they draw 'em like this? VERY nice. I think they would have gotten a bigger audience with this better art style IMHO.
.... reminds me that I *still* have to blog Futakoi 5-7. hahahaa X(
Wow, very nice, I like all the designs better except Lulu & Lala, the anime version of them was cuter, but they also look younger in the anime which is probably part of it. :)
Now I want a copy of this, wonder if I can manage to order from Amazon Japan or not. ^_^;;;
maestro, it's a lot easier than you think. Here's a guide that sorta helps:

Thanks for the link Matthew, I'll give a try when I have the money (aka next month's payday). :) I did manage to register myself on the Tsukuyomy Moon Phase official site to get the wallpaper they had up a while back. ^_^
Ugg, I hate work's proxy server, can't go to any sites hosted at Geocities at all. Well I _can_ (I have the override password) but it's logged and I try not to unless it's work related. ^_^;;;;
A bit of a general question here to all, how interested would you find an anime blog that not only covers newer stuff but does some mini reviews of older shows? I've been thinking about doing that, most of the anime Blogs are about current shows, but I'm not sure how interested people would be in reading about the older stuff. What do you guys (and gals) think?
Sounds like a good idea to me, Maestro :)
works for me maestro, wouldn't mind seeing what your thoughts are on the "older" shows. :D
