Dakimakura Collection 10
Totally NSFW. Really, don't even try to take a glimpse in public! It was a bit too sunny (lots of objects in the way casting shadows no matter where I laid down the dakimakuras) so I tried taking the close up pics with the curtains shut but they turned out rather dark as one might imagine.. oh well! The actual colors of all are a bit brighter and more vibrant than they may seem here!
Kirishima Sakura from the eroge Sakura Sakura. As far as I can tell she's normally in a school uniform/maid uniform, so I guess this plugsuit is some kind of special cosplay. In general I've never been that attracted to the evangelion girls in plugsuits, but I guess that's because unlike sakura they don't have the bodies to pull it off right. She has curves in all the right places for the suit to cling to. I also really like the style of seeing her eye through her hair, more anime girls should do that!
Back side. Additionally a bonus aspect of her suit is that large parts seem to become transparent quite easily. If anyone is interested she's still in stock at http://hiqo.cart.fc2.com/ca4/28/p-r-s/ (need to order via a proxy service)
One of the side characters from Amatsu Misora Ni! rather than a main heroine.. which has led to me being unable to find her name in english, it's "音無夏帆" in japanese I believe. This is another one illustrated by Shintaro and made of the nice smooth AJ 2way tricot material.
Back side.
Nanase Rio from eroge Imouto Paradise by Moonstone. This one was relatively cheap (8400yen or so iirc) and also included the game's visual fan book. It was released by chara ani and is a smooth knit, though feels to be a bit thinner than their other smooth knits. I guess that's a side effect of the lower cost (given the visual guide is worth 2500 itself). It truely would be an imouto paradise with such a cute imouto around (let alone all 5 as in the game).
Back side.
Yatake Tsubaki from Mecha-con! by Onomatope*. This was relatively cheap for a 2way tricot cover, it was sold for 8500 at comiket 80. Picked up since she's got such a cute face and lovely striped thighhighs. The color tone of her skin is tinted a bit too muchly red though on the dakimakura (doesn't come at in these photots as bright as it is in reality ), but it's still a very nice one.
Back side.
And that's that for today.
I like the last girl
Nice collection! ( ￣∇￣)ｂ
Woah! I haven't seen one of these in a while ^^
Very nice collection, you gotta tell me where you purchase these.
Also the dakimakura, are the cover and pillow seperate?
In general they are separate, though you can sometimes get both together as a set. However shipping for an actual pillow is extremely expensive, so you're generally much better off buying one locally (thus them being separate is a good thing).
The first one (Kirishima Sakura SF ver) is available from http://hiqo.cart.fc2.com/ca4/28/p-r-s/
The second one was sold for a while for web order, but now can only be gotten via second-hand auctions. Your best bet is to check Yahoo Japan Auctions for it and others: http://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/ then search for dakimakura covers ( 抱き枕カバー ) from that eroge ( あまつみそらに ) i.e. http://auctions.search.yahoo.co.jp/search?p=%E3%81%82%E3%81%BE%E3%81%A4%E3%81%BF%E3%81%9D%E3%82%89%E3%81%AB+%E3%82%AB%E3%83%90%E3%83%BC&oq=%E3%81%82%E3%81%BE%E3%81%A4%E3%81%BF%E3%81%9D%E3%82%89%E3%81%AB&auccat=0&f=0x2&slider=0&tab_ex=commerce&ei=UTF-8&b=1 There seems to be one of her up at 11k buyout atm (original cost was 10k so that's not bad). Note that anything below 5k is possibly a bootleg so check descriptions carefully before ordering.
The third one (Nanase Rio) was sold by chara-ani so available in most common stores for anime goods, I got it from Otacute though HLJ and HS had it too I believe. Sold out now though so auctions would be the only place.
The last one (Yatake Tsubaki) was only sold at Comiket 80, so unless you were at comiket the only option is via auctions. I got lucky and found her for a "mere" 9k (original price 8.5k) right after comiket ended.
To buy from shops who don't ship internationally, or from yahoo japan auctions, you have to use a proxy service who will get the item shipped to them, charge some fee, and then ship it on to you. For a web order I'd recommend Yokatta ( http://yokattaweb.jp/ ) as they only charge 700yen fee. They seem to be very slow to reply to emails at time though. For auctions I'd go with sutocorp.com, they charge 8% of your total expenses (8% of Item cost+local shipping+bank fee+international shipping) which seems to be as good or better than any other proxy service I've found, and they are in general very quick to respond to e-mails and orders which is nice when you find a nice auction with only 10hours left on it (obviously not 100% guaranteed they will make it in time then but a good chance depending on the time of day).
Oh and this blog http://blog.埋もれる抱き枕er.jp/ (very NSFW usually) is the best place for keeping track of the up and coming dakimakura and where to order them from. Google translate should be enough to help you identify what you need to know. In general most dakimakura will be sold out during the pre-order phase and tracking them down after they're released ends up more expensive.
Sweet mother of Mercy! XD that's some nosebleed making collection. :3
Phew!!!!!
*thumbs up!
