Overseas Otaku Buying Tips |
Making
online purchases/pre-orders especially for Jpop
CDs and anime/game PVC figures have always been
the best option for me (and many otakus who do
not live in Japan). Listed below are my wish list,
preorders and purchases from these reputable online
companies. Your purchase via these links supports
this site :)
YesAsia
(Bought my Jpop CD/DVD here)
J-list
(many 'weird' Japanese stuff)
HobbySearch
(Comprehensive inventory
but no free shipping
and no shipping cost
provided upon placing
an order )
HLJ
(very good alternative to HobbySearch)
E2046
(many figures & rules in resin
kit)
Play-Asia
(My #1 online shop)

Leave even the future behind. I know no limits; they’re meaningless! This power scatters out those feelings that are so far from how they used to be. If I can’t do anything but look back at this road I walked down… I can break down everything here and now. On a street that falls into darkness, how far can people fight on? I can definitely protect anyone from the accelerating pain. Looking! The blitz loops this planet to search for a way. Only my RAILGUN can shoot it right now. The certain prediction circulated Through my body at the speed of light. If there’s something you wish for, grab it and don’t leave it behind! We can shine with our own style. I believe in the vow from that day. Even the tears that shine in these eyes will become my strength. I won’t lie that I’ve never been confused at all By the pain of standing still. The parabola drawn by the coin that dances in midair decides my fate. Today, the answer it came to circulates through my chest. Sparkling! The shiny lights awaken true desire. Only my RAILGUN can shoot it without fail. I go through; I’m not lost. Even if I’m hurt, I keep on running. Aim! The glance that sparkles coldly cuts through the darkness without disorder. We should just blast away hesitation. My heart screams as loudly as it can. I won’t let anyone interfere. The countless wishes that flutter fleetingly Collect in my arms. What comes into view from the shredded night Is heavy, deep, painful memory. I shake in the faded reality. I don’t want to lose to despair. The fact that I’m here now as myself Fills my chest with pride – I’m proud of it all! Looking! The blitz loops this planet to search for a way. Only my RAILGUN can shoot it right now. The certain prediction circulated Through my body at the speed of light. Release the dream engraved in your heart! Leave even the future behind. I know no limits; they’re meaningless! This power scatters out those feelings that are so far from how they used to be. | Some Thoughts I overlooked the ending tune of "To Aru Kagaku no Railgun", "only my railgun" on the first episode (OP song thereafter) of the anime (I dropped it!), but I'm glad that I took a proper listen to the full length version and watched fripSide's PV later. This is my first fripSide contact but it immediately grew on me with its familiar arrangement that bears similarity to TM Revolution, TWO-MIX and KOTOKO songs. Nao's vocal is very high pitched and somehow reminded me of other anisong "Hitomi No Naka No Meikyuu", the OP of "Yami To Boushi To Hon no Tabibito". As for the PV, I was surprised that fripSide did Mikoto's "The Railgun"! (apologize for the PV spoiler).
