2ch is afire with praise for the manly Index obsessive who took it upon himself to buy no less than ten copies of Shonen Gangan in order to obtain ten Index mouse mats, currently being bundled with the December issue. As you can see, the pads are of the flat variety, though it’s not clear whether they are appropriately so.
“Before I even realised it, I’d used all the money in my wallet to buy all I could.”
Some are reasonably wondering whether he bought them all in one place or had to make a circuit of any number of shops to get them all… Whatever the case, his credentials as an Index fan are in no doubt.
As you’ll recall, otaku are no strangers to acting on their consumptive urges, occasionally with terrifying consequences…
“Before I even realised it, I’d used all the money in my wallet to buy all I could.”
How much money does he has!?! O.O
Just under 500 yen a copy, so 5000 yen ($50-55 roughly) approximately. ^^
Artefact, is there any chance of seeing an article teaching us newbies how to order from Amazon Japan?
It’s pretty easy, just like every other site almost. Just add things to your cart and checkout~
I think there is, I’ll see about preparing something.
I want one too~~ T_T
I believe I have it sorted, but there is a small possibility that my pre-orders do not get cancelled in time and that I will end up later this month with 3 of the Kotobukiya Index PVC figures wither another pre-order due in January.
If I somehow end up with 3 (or conceivably 4) of those ¥6000~ figures I will claim victory over the subject of this post.
Nice try, but accidental purchases do not count. If you buy five identical Indexes and take a picture of them, I’ll make you the subject of a post though.
Meanie.
I’d like a mouse pad… how could I get one stateside?
If you can’t find the issue in the US just order from Amazon. The manga is cheap ($5), the shipping not cheap.
yeah, thats the problem. If I recall, shipping is like… $27
