Why. Internet ruins everything as it is, so it's not like it's not like whatever idea came through your head means it's what it was intended to be. I don't know about young girls, but the "Arland" trilogy (what made it more prominent in the West) has a particularly girly charm. Like, really girly: fuck this shit is adorable Edited August 29, 2021 by ♠Soul♠ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's called moving on. ...It was about four years ago when I knew literally nothing about this series. Today I would think enitrely different about that.

Like, really girly: Reveal hidden contents fuck this shit is adorable The games (and characters) are consistent with this level of adorableness. I mean, Meruru has a theme song that would fit right in as the opening theme of a magical girl anime. And it's a freaking earworm on top of that. Where is it used in-game? Boss battles. Yup. But then you get stuff like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benice Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 Speaking of atelier, I have lost all faith in humanity. They make Ryza body pillows. It's a kids/lighthearted game, for goodness's sake! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And this case, it has nothing to do with the actual company. Thank God. Even if they're willing to compromise on their target demographic, they still hold actual standards.

MisterIceTeaPeach Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 The price might give a hint that not many copies of this figur will be made. If I waited longer, I would only assume price goes up.........until it's out of stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much any waifu related to anime, gaming, and Asia has a dakimakura. Have not seen any for Dora the Explorer though. Have not found any dakimuras for Barney nor Teletubbies yet either, but since we got an Elmo, I think it is just a matter of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
