And after nearly 6 months of not even watching Kemono no Souja Erin, I have finally gotten back to it. Shameful, considering that I said from the start of the year that I will blog it episodically. :\ The current episode is at 30 this coming Saturday (which is tomorrow) and the subs are out at 26 already as of this post, and I am at episode 5. :)

Finally, we cover the last part of Wonfes in detail with the figure maker that has overtaken Max Factory as the number 1 figure maker in my book, Alter. Alter was, in fact, the first booth to be covered in photographic detail at the event, so I would expect that everyone probably knows all their various releases that were announced at the event by now. Still, considering that they have my biggest share of interest, it is only right that I take a good look at the ones I will invest in.
Despite my previous revelation about this being a big post, I decided to compress it into just 2 manufacturers, Volks and Orchid Seed, leaving the best manufacturer, Alter, for yet another post, despite it being the first booth to be photographed at the event. Here are the figures that had me interested from both the former manufacturers.
This was just too golden to pass up as a post. nyoronyolo posted this particular tier list on Twitter some time ago before this post, regarding the fighting game Blazblue. Now I am not that deep into the game, but I do know the characters (since so many of my gaming circle are into it), and this is seriously LOL. First, take a look at the tier list, and take a good look.

I always preferred doing Wonder Festival coverage a little later than the others, and I thought, after the discussion I held with both YuKi-To and Lelouch, that YuKi-To will do it on the day itself (he said he had no time to do on other days), and that Lelouch will (most likely) follow up the next two days. Guess not. So I delayed my coverage until I had information from the usual sources (and better pictures). Unlike their complete coverage I will only prefer touching on figures that I like, and a few others that I am not interested in but felt like commenting upon. Today’s coverage is a little wordplay, covering the figures out from Kotobukiya and Native. The last part, also done by me, will cover Alter, Orchid Seed and Volks.
