It was a beautiful day! Don't let it get away!
Today was going-out day. My vacations (ahahahaha, good one!) are over, so I had to go out by myself at leat once. So I went to the city, and took a chance to go shopping. Manga shopping.
I walked a lot around downtown, looking for collections to update. This was the pillage:
......And in an act of fangirlism, even though I DON'T plan to follow that manga entirely, but I wanted to have my current obsession on paper:
I tried to get the last issue of CLAMP no Kiseki like mad, but none of the shops I went to had it. There's still one that could have it, the Alita store at Ronda de Nelle, but with the frequency of the bus I wasn't sure the shop would still be open when I had arrived there. So other day...
Also, I was strongly tempted by plushies. El Baúl de los Recuerdos had One Piece plushies: there was this giant Chopper with a pirate hat! There were smaller plushies of Nami, Zoro and Sanji as well. But the worst ones were at e-Toys: two Mokona Modoki plushies, the pair. But HUGE ones; like 30 cm (a foot) of height! They could be used as pillows, for fuck's sake! I wanted to buy the Larg, but it was 29€ and the hell I'm spending that in one plushie. If they were the smaller ones (or cheaper), I would've jumped on that, but it's too much. Remember I mocked my brother for buying a 25-euro plushie, and I don't want to become a hypocrit.
By the way, Coruña has been invaded by the Chinese artbooks of DOOM. It's like a miracle to find an original Japanese artbook around.
But I had a good time today. The weather was warm and it didn't rain. I walked a lot and it was tiresome since I carried my coat and a bag on my arms, but I needed the exercise. It's a great change in the routine and I needed that. I even ate outside, which I seldom doit was fast food in a mall food course, but it was still outside. So it was cool.

three to go

no subject
No hay muchas tiendas especializadas en Coruña, pero a las que yo voy -que no son muchas- 2 de 3 ya tienen chinos (y la otra no estoy del todo segura si ya los tiene porque están en una repisa muy aaaalta). Yo flipo, porque con lo que gastas en un artbook chino te compras uno original por Internet con gastos de envío incluidos. Yo supongo que los venden así de caro porque los gastos de envío que tuvieron que pagar por ellos serán más o menos los mismos que por un original.
