Final Fantasy XIII GETS!

Firstly, I want to apologise for my lack of updates. I’m kinda in another world at the minute (I’m not talking about Final Fantasy just yet) because I so desperately want to apply for the Risa, Eri and Lin Lin Morning Days Tour but all the rigmarole that goes into it is proving kinda frustrating. I’m not sleeping well because I’m so anxious about it all and this is not going to halt any time soon, even if I do manage to get my application in on time. Why? Because the places are given out on a lottery system so there’s a chance that I won’t win a place even though I’ve applied and all *sigh* Poor zorrander is having to put up with my “what’s happening?” PM’s which probably isn’t helping him as he’s in the same boat as me so hopefully soon we’ll have something sorted out.

Anyway…on to the main point of this post which is…

MY COPY OF FINAL FANTASY XIII CAME TODAY!!!

I’ll now be investing as much time as I possibly can in to completing this game – which will no doubt mean even fewer blog updates – and I’m not going to give up until I’ve done so! The thing is, even though I really enjoy playing RPG’s I kinda suck at them / get easily irritated with them so to help me overcome this problem I also bought the official strategy guide. Mind you…I couldn’t just buy any version, oh no! I had to buy the Limited Edition hardback version (^_^)

Well, you know…

…Ai-chan pimped it so well <3

*The fact that Ai-chan orgasms over FF is my excuse for posting about this on my H!P blog*

YOSH!

Ai-chan Says...

BUY IT!!!

Oooh…how cool would it be to have an ‘Ai-chan Says Buy It’ t-shirt in the style of a Frankie Goes To Hollywood ‘Frankie Says Relax’ one, but with the Final Fantasy XIII logo on the back?! I should get some made – along with some fliers – then walk round my local city on the release date hounding people to buy the game.

“Who cares if you don’t have a PS3 or 360, Ai-chan demands that you buy it! *evil glare*”

Maybe I can persuade sonofgodzilla to help me with this (^_^) Oh, hang on…maybe I could set-up a multi city attack by roping in other UK Wota *rubs chin* Or maybe I can just pull my finger out and finish my Koharu graduation post which I’m currently stuck on and thus stalling by writing stuff like this…

If anyone’s up for an Ai-chan X Final Fantasy XIII multi city attack though, drop me an e-mail (chanponchan@omame.co.uk)

MORE Ai-chan Final Fantasy Love

Ai-chan was recently on a TV show talking about – and playing – Final Fantasy XIII. Someone has very kindly uploaded it to You Tube in parts so here they are for everyone to watch ^^

♥♥♥

I haven’t watched this yet so I can’t give any detailed information on it although I am downloading it in HQ for screencaping purposes ^^ I did find this pretty cool gif on Hello! Online which features Ai-chan’s victory move after winning a battle…

*props to maker*

…so I’m gonna make sure I do this after every battle I win in the game!!! I just wonder what she looks like when she repeatedly looses battles lol. I wonder if she gets so angry that she contemplates throwing the controller at the TV like I usually do… *hoho*

「Fellow Japanophile and Final Fantasy geek」 sonofgodzilla and I are thinking about buying the Japanese version of this game even though the pair of us have limited Japanese skills and neither of us own a PS3! Crazy? Maybe, but who cares? *shrug* One thing we are definitely going to buy is some ‘Elixer’ (Final Fantasy XIII themed soda) which is pretty darn awesome if you ask me! Prepare for a taste test post once it arrives!!!

Ai-chan's Final Fantasy Lub

If I’m correct there’s two Hello! Project girls who have a keen love for video games – Yaguchi Mari and Takahashi Ai – but whereas Mari likes most games, Ai’s love seems to mainly involve the Final Fantasy franchise. She’s mentioned a number of times that she loves the games – her favourite is Final Fantasy X – so it’s no surprise that with the release of Final Fantasy XIII Ai-chan has been featured in some interviews about it. One of those interviews is here:

I have absolutely no idea what it says but the photos included with it are pretty darn hot if you ask me, so for ease of use here they are for everyone in all their full size glory ^^
