==Ruri Gokou....Really?== I believe I have just fallen in love with this character! How embarrassing. I never liked gothic or loli characters or even neko for that matter. But somehow Ruri Gokou from Ore no Imōto ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake ga Nai man...

Chiaki's Opinion! =Angel Beats!= "Please note that it is really hard to talk about my thoughts of an anime without spoilers. That being said, you should have seen this anime before hand." This anime is already one year old but I'...

It was only about 2 weeks ago that I posted a blog where I told myself that I would not buy any figures. It took me only one day to crack after I found blackmercury and his konata figure cosplay for sale. I messaged him about the shipping cost...

Chiaki's Opinion! =Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica= After hearing what an amazing anime Madoka was, I had to go see it for myself! And now that I've finished it, I have to say that although it was good, I'm a little dissapointed. I'm no genius on a...

Chiaki's Opinion yer yer Ano Hi Mita Hana no Namae wo Boku-tachi wa Mada Shiranai "We Still Don't Know the Name of the Flower We Saw That Day." It's just around 11pm when I'm typing this up and comes after I "marathon"e...

I've finished my Christmas shopping~! It's that time of the year again and I hope everyone here on MyAnimeShelf a very Merry Christmas~! Hope everyone is happy this festive season and I would also like to wish everyone a Happy New Yea...

I set off today with the one intention to complete my Yotsuba manga collection! I also planned to buy some figures but because I was going with a friend to a bigger store at a later date I refrained from spending my cash. Yotsuba has to be my favou...

It seems like a quite a while now since I bought my chibi Gundam and Armored core kits and I only just recently got around to assembling them. There are some positives and negatives that come with these sort of models but my love for mecha keeps m...

What's been happening Shelfers it's Chiaki and I've got quite a lot to share in this post about what's happened during my time away from animeshelf. I made my way back to my closest anime and manga stores, Kinokuniya and Hobby Co. I thought I'...

This was way too cool and hilarious not to share. Those who haven't heard the energetic Lucky Star OP before will probably not get this. Peace...

Chiaki's Opinion! =Sora no Otoshimono= "My little rant about this anime contains no spoilers whatsoever. Why? Because this is similar to Lucky Star in that this anime pretty much has no strong plot. It does have a story revolving around the...

I'm not sure about other people but figure collecting in my eyes is just another hobby phase that I'm experiencing and I've had a bad habit of spending too much of my money on hobbies. This is really because I'm still considered a 'kid' and I don...

===The Music of Anime=== I have never blogged before. This is my first! As much as it is fun to collect figures of your favourite character of an anime, I just love to play the songs of anime.I just can't get over the fact that the piano son...

Woah I can't believe I forgot about the release of the official English translated Haruhi light novel! The Rampage of Haruhi Suzumiya is the fifth to be translated for official release with the sixth set to be released November 7. The hardcover b...

A mystery poster by the name of Craig has been sticking random signs on street furniture in Chapel Street in Melbourne. I did a bit of research on the internetz and found that this is not the original but an imitator of "chris" from America...

Hi all! I've been Platinum busy lately with work and university but I thought I'd take some time off to just ramble on about what I watched last season. First up we have Nisemonogatari, the sequel to Bakenonogatari. I wasn't quite sure if I wa...

Yoko yer yer I have managed to stumble upon a really wonderful Yoko cosplay from the 2011 Otakon at Baltimore. I have a bad habit of typing long blogs so this time I'll let you admire what I think is some successful cosplay. Look at that p...

Well tomorrow marks the start of my final examination period for my high-schooling career! What I should be doing: What I really am doing: I've got no time for anything Japanese related as I really start to cram whatever knowledge I c...

Possible Spoiler. Do not read if you plan to watch Madoka. Peace

Well it's right after my examination period so life at school has slowed down a lot. Today, while at school a close friend of mine tells me that he thinks he read an article on the school newsletter that could be about me. And when I took a look at i...

This has nothing to do with myself, Japanese culture, or anything related to this site however this site is the only blogging tool I use and I was really compelled to talk about this news. This is the moment a group of chimpanzees sees dayli...

Yuki Nagato Composite Ver.Ka Release date: September 2011, Price: 5,040 Yen I've already seen the Haruhi Composite Ver and was a little confused as to the relevance of the sos dan having mecha suits However, I'm sort of a sucker for mecha su...

Chiaki's Opinion! =Nichijou= Yes Yes Yes! I'm pretty much free from exams with only one left to go so I thought I'd spend some time talking about Nichijou! Thanks to the recent addition of "Ties" I feel that I may even talk about older...
