Peter's Japan blog

Here's the result from my photo shoot form last Sunday. It features my 2 latest nendoroids (Nagato Yuki and Pastel Ink) and another nendoroid which I hadn't photographed yet (Asahina Mikuru) and the ones I already had (Suzumiya Haruhi and Hatsune Miku). I shot these pictures with my new camera, a Canon EOS 450D (my first DSLR, you can read more about that in a previous post). I always try to funny stuff and make a little bit of story out of my photo shoots with figures. And as nendoroid are very good for that because they are somewhat poseable and have several extra parts and faces to use. But of course, figmas are even better for that, but I haven't got any of those.

Here's a group pic before we begin:

During their latest news video from ANN TV, AnimeNewsNetwork showed an subtitled interview with the main "Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu" cast: Hirano Aya, Yuko Goko and Chihara Minoru. The interview was done the day after their live performance at the Anime Expo in Los Angeles.

I must say, they looked very good and very kawaii as always. I like how they liked the American fans and I hope they will be invited to some anime convention in Europe as well. Would love to see them as well.
