The enigmatic and underfeatured 鶴屋さん / Tsuruya-san of the SOS-dan (almost, at any rate) features in all her fanged glory in this fine gallery.
A series of other Haruhi themed galleries is to follow…

The sequel to the earlier gallery of fairy appealingness. With these I don’t think the power of small winged female moe is left in any doubt.

A fine gallery of fairies/faeries, combining their considerable small thing moe with wingedness and supernatural beauty.
There is perhaps a lack of Bottle Fairies, in particular Sarara, for which I must apologise. Also a lack of Tear, but I suppose this is understandable. At least Odin Sphere’s Mercedes is adequately represented.

It is not often an anime really rocks the boat in terms of visual quality or animation style, but a recent title to attract attention as just such an anime is the recently commenced anime 魔法遣いに大切なこと ~夏のソラ~ / Mahou Tsukai ni Taisetsu na Koto – Natsu no Sora, or Someday’s Dreamers – Summer Skies (for once I think the English title is much better advised), the second series of the franchise. In particular, the magnificent scenery in this anime has turned heads, but after the initial impact, there are also voices critical of the work’s visual quality.

With the recent announcement of a new 苺ましまろ / Ichigo Marshmallow OVA (or Strawberry Marshmallow), now is perhaps as timely a moment as ever to post some fine images of Miu and her playthings. Most of these look to be adaptations of Barasui originals, and most appealing they are too.

The school swimwear peculiar to Japan, called スクール水着 / school mizugi, or abbreviated as スク水 / sukumizu, exerts a powerful influence over many Japanese men it would appear; perhaps this is a consequence of the nation’s boys being collectively exposed to the blossoming womanhood of Japan uniformly dressed in these at times surprisingly flattering uniform garments.

Coming upon much more 春画 / shunga, the Japansese erotic art of antiquity prone to make the contemporary stuff look tame, I though it time to make a few galleries of them, in addition to the earlier gallery. I should furnish you with a warning before you proceed – some of these images frankly put /d/ to shame in strangeness, and I reproduce uncritically as historical art illustrations which might otherwise be considered in less than exemplary taste.

Somewhere along the way this gallery became a Tony Taka summer gallery, so by all means enjoy these fine images of young ladies struggling to keep their clothes on in the heat.

More appealing summer girls exhibiting the exhibiting the quality of being hot in the sun, or in some cases simply being rather well lit.

The second of the summer girls galleries, with more images of young ladies sweltering in the summer heat.

A gallery of fine summer themed images, with the general emphasis on 2D girls in the heat of summer; considering we are in the midst of tsuyu my timing is perhaps less than optimal, but I’m sure this can be forgiven. Many of the images in these galleries should be able to serve admirably as wallpapers. There are also similar images in several previous galleries, though I have done my best to expunge this series of any duplicates.

Here is another fine gallery of exceptionally beautiful girls wearing yukata, kimono, and various tasteful accoutrements of traditional Japanese attire, although some of the girls do seem to be distinctly not wearing their yukata.
