Me at the desk working on Run Around Kazu.
An overview of my room from the top back corner looking down. The desk happens to be clean here since I was dusting it.
However, it usually looks like it does presently, as you see in the pic above.
This is what you see if you turned 180 degrees from the pictures above. You can see my futon, Rei, Shana, and Konata pillows, more shelves and figures. You also see this angle when walking in the room.
And if you were to look to the right of the desk and bed, you will see my closet door, surrounded by my two larger bookshelves, packed with manga, artbooks, and figures.
This is to the left of the photo above, where you can see more of my other shelves and bookshelf, all of which reside in the entrance way behind my desk. You can kind of see the door to my room on the right.
From any point in the room, if you were to look up, you would see my ceiling in the pic above! Believe it or not, there are over 600+ posters, and nearly zero white from the walls! That's how tedious and meticulous I am.
I'm so nuts about posters, even the inside of my closet has them!
And before we end the tour, here's a pic of 2 of my 12 shelves, here you can see how I've skillfully placed them on the wall without harming the posters.
And now the tour ends with a picture of the door to my room.
Thanks for checking out my OTACOOL room!
'o' Wheres your walls? SO MANY POSTERZ!!! Cool room though :)
lol There's no wall....only a space of anime with neverending time continuum.
MY GOD YOU HAVE NO WALLS.
Lovely collection, too.
I wonder how you got so much posters.. probably from magazines right? ^^
Wall scrolls and larger ones bought individually, most of the small ones, and 8x10 ones were mostly all cut-outs from tons of magazines that were all collected over the years. It was very difficult and kind of insane putting them all up. Plus I'm very picky and meticulous about where they go. XD
Also, just to add, I always "strip" my wall scrolls, meaning I take the bars off and trim them so they fit into the wall collage better.
wow amazing maximal posters and wall scrols.
and also you got so may anime/manga stuffs :) for your age already :)
Nice Wall Collage... A+ for Effort
I see u manage to upload multiple pics now! Ur welcome bro! & whoooooO! Awsome room!
I spot An Café and hide! :Db Impressive work with your posters, though!
Haha, what will happen when you get more posters, but no room?
Thx, and about getting more posters, many people ask this question. The answer, is that I usually tend to seek new posters when getting tired of a certain one, or, when I happen upon a new one that I like, I take measures to replace them with old ones of the same size. :D So, it is actually possible to have more posters. I also made sure to have ones I really like, and ones I could let go if I find one I like better. ^_^
Nice! Was just wondering since, yeah, you really manage to get all of the posters to fit nicely. Btw, how do you affix all of your posters? Tape, or perhaps Blu Tack (or something similar)?
I basically work very slowly with each one, straightening them with my fingers as I slowly tape and tack them. Most larger ones have tape. Bigger ones have tacks.
Wow! a lot of posters hahaha xD
amazing room, a lot of poster @.@'
SO MANY POSTERS! LoL. It's all cramped together but that shows how hardcore you are. One Word. Amazing.
I spotted a Game Cube and PS2 ^^ .
A question. This the room your sleeping in right? How can you sleep staring at those wonderful/beautiful/hot anime girls lol.
Staring them from your bed i mean.
Yes, this is my room, and I sleep on that futon every night. It's not difficult to sleep though. I sleep in the dark lol.
Wow, that's indeed lots of posters o_O What are you gonna do if/when you have to move?
Actually, we just moved, and we own the place we have right now. When we moved, I had to spend 3 whole days with an artist knife (exacto, Xacto? SP?) going around thin pieces of tape while gently pulling out tacks. Believe it or not, they are easily removable, I have built the walls that way.
All those posters... It's just insane... Brain cannot compute with a world without defined walls!
Love the cushions also ^^ The Shana one looks really nice to lay your head on ^^
you r so so greeeaaaaattt...what a roooommm.... XD
lots of posters, lol I don't think I'd ever be able to get to sleep if I had walls like that, too much going on!!!
Ah, a fellow Kingdom Hears fan I see ^^
Sweet room/
wow you have an awesome room!! That's alot of posters!! I really like your door!! nice figures too! (^^)
That's what I call the ultimate anime wallpaper!!!
Now that's what I call a poster collection!
And I like the Iori figure... very nice ^^
you should take away some of the poster to give you spaces for other new poster and the konata and kagami wearing swimsuit one i don't thing putting at the roof is a good idea cause i would prefer it at the sofa and i saw one very cool poster of sepiroth nice!
full of any poster's your room?
lordy... That's alot of posters! lol I'm jealous.

THIS DEFINES OTACOOL NICE
Pretty nice is most of your collage held up by scotch tape,pushie pins or poster tape? My walls hate tape D: ...there was this...one time a poster fell on me while I was sleeping ahah XD yea it scared me... never again with scotch tape!
I really like your room, I think I'd be scared of going anywhere near any walls though since I'd probably accidentally rip a poster. o_o
They should invent 'Anime Wallpapers' like these....!!!
