Spring Amiami Haul: YOI goodies and other stuff!
Tumblr media
Remember how I keep saying that I’m unemployed and poor as dirt? Well, I still am both things, but money’s not gonna save anyone when the Orange Overlord kills us all so I’ll have my YOI merch with extra avocado pls. Thought it would be cute and funny to let you in on my road to financial self-destruction and maybe convince you to buy some of these things and throw money at Yuri on Ice becuse it might be officially and irrevocably the best selling anime of 2016 but this is Sayokan and she needs ALL THE MONEYZ to make that movie this isn’t quite how anime is made but i believe in principle the more money that gets thrown into any series’s products in any capacity, the more money will get thrown into its production see Attack on Titan. In this post we’ll look at my March and April purchases and cry over how beautiful these things are and how poor I am.
Starting with the March set, which is comparatively smaller
Tumblr media
First we have the Yuri!!! on Ice school calendar which I bought basically because I wanted a calendar and the MAPPA one was too costly with shipping charges and I thought I couldn’t make that expense (how innocent I was). It’s a cute lil’ thing, with a few funny things in it and also a bit of design laziness which is a bit sad. To get the bad stuff out of the way first, as you can see, the cover illustration is completely original and our boys are looking very smart in those suits, nothing wrong with that...
Tumblr media
except half of the calendar pages are just the same illustration, just individually. So we have Victor alone for one page (June-July), Yurio alone for another and Yuuri alone in the last one. I would’ve rather they used other official illustrations instead of recycling the cover thrice over ):. THe remaining three illustrations are cute, I particularly like the one for December-January, Yuuri looks so pure :3
Tumblr media
What’s weird and funny about this calendar is they decided, for some inexplicable reason, to have it all in Russian. The names of the days and months are ALL in Russian, and cyrillic to boot. Idk what they were going for but it’s quirky and unique, so I like it. It’s not like I actively use calendars anyway, I just use them to tear them apart and stick the illustrations on my walls. The calendar is available on amiami
On to the next item
Tumblr media
A relatively simple phone cleaner strap, nothing much to say about it. It’s punipuni like Yuuri’s off-season chub (still can’t believe this is a canon thing) and works good for a quick clean of your screen if you’re not home. This one is currently sold out on Amiami, but they might restock eventually (wow that cost more than I remember, I was so liberal with my money when I had job lol)
Tumblr media
The last item from the March haul is this acrylic accessory stand that depicts Yuuri at the end of his free skate in China. I don’t even own or wear any jewelry or accessories, but I just had to have it, it’s so beautiful ;----; Cup of China Yuuri is very important to me, ok? You can see I’m using it to hold my kanzashi and an ear-pick lol. Ngl I thought it would be big enough to hold my smartphone, but it isn’t and I don’t care, he’s beautiful. He’s still available on Amiami, and there are other designs to choose from too. If a girl like me who wears no jewelry could find room for it, I’m sure you can too!
Now, onto the April stuff
Tumblr media
Firstly there’s these two cleaning cloths depicting Victor and Yuuri from the first Key visual which I love. I’ve also tested them and they’re really effective, even without cleaning liquid. They’re a bit more plastic-y than the one I had before so they don’t leave any fuzz on the screen, which is gr9. These were kind of a spur of the moment purchase half of my YOI stuff has been spur of the moment purchases because I thought amiami would flat-rate EMS and since I expected the box to be big given how it came with two figures and a coin case and a keychain, I thought SAL would be like 1800ish (what I paid the last time I had a figma and Nendoroid shipped together) and EMS 2000 and figured 200 yen would be worth not having to wait three months for the items to arrive, so I could have the luxury of making it a true huge haul. Turns out 1) There isn’t a flat rate on EMS 2) SAL was only 1300, so I went for SAL and it arrived so fast it was like a Golden Week miracle.
Aaaanyway, these are still available on Amiami, as well as a Yurio variant and they’re also pretty big –you can see they cover the figure boxes-, I recommend them if you’re looking for a new cleaning cloth or smth.
Tumblr media
Next we have this adorable Victor keychain which is waaay bigger than I thought it would be I really need to start paying attention to sizes (for reference, from skate to skate he’s about  1 cm shorter than a Nendoroid). I don’t particularly understand the buzz for “Pinched” character goods, but this one I bought at a time in which I was restless because I wanted to throw money at Sayokan but the BDs weren’t affordable at all –even now, counting ALL the YOI shit I’ve preordered, and I’ve shit PO’ed up til August, I don’t even come close to what buying all the BDs would’ve cost- and these keychains came out for preorder and I loved how Victor had his legs so dramatically extended, so I impulse pre-ordered him lol. Of course, I’m not actually gonna use it as a keychain because I’m afraid his legs would break given what a rough treatment my keys go through, but I’ll hang him from a shelf and he’ll look cute :3
He’s still available at Amiami along with Yurio, Yuuri and Makkachin and I’m fairly certain there are also cellphone strap versions if that’s what you prefer.
And last but not least (since I forgot to take individual pics of the figures and I haven’t even unboxed them yet, I’ll do those in a separate post) we have this beautiful beautiful beautiful coin case!
Tumblr media
Like I just don’t have any words, it’s just so beautiful, it completely surpassed all my expectations. It has so many little details I want to cry.
Tumblr media
The synthetic leather is so soft and the baby blue color is adorable and the print looks even better in person than in the prototype, it’s such a lovely pattern too.
Tumblr media
What made it a deal-breaker for me was this little depiction of the hair-poke, literally end my life
Tumblr media
I’ll admit this isn’t my favorite type of coin case because I feel it’s prone for dropping money, especially if you’re carrying a lot of coins (not a problem for me since I don’t have money at all :’D), but I literally couldn’t care less, it’s so beautiful and perfect I will treasure it forever. I can’t possibly overstate how in love I am with this thing.
Playful Mind company has a variety of designs of different items such as phone cases, card cases, ticket holders etc, with this and other cute patterns, so I totally recommend you check them out, most of them seem to still be available on Amiami :D A+++ recommend, I honestly feel tempted to buy another one with a different design just because they’re so pretty.
 BONUS
Tumblr media
Yes, if you thought I wouldn’t take this opportunity to once again flaunt my beloved calendar, light of my life, my everything, you were WRONG. Like I said before, I originally didn’t intend to buy it because the shipping costs were so insane at CDJapan, but I succumbed when preview pictures started flooding in and turned out to be way more beautiful than I ever expected orz.  Barely scraped in the last few days of preorders, and now it’s sold out af.
Also, I originally planned to get the Yuri on Life guidebook and take it to be autographed to the convention –in case you missed it, see my report of this most momentous occasion here- but the guidebook was delayed (and has been delayed three times as of this writing, still have it PO’ed though) so this beautiful calendar became The Chosen One. I love it so much, literally bury me with it when I die.
That’s all for this season, next one probably won’t be until late August when I’ve gotten both Nendos cos there’s no point in separating them. I’d hoped this would be longer and include the Animestyle, Yuri on Life and Go Yuri Go books but since the latter two got delayed yet again and I’m too poor to afford separate shipments, it’ll all have to wait til late fucking June *sobs* But hey, the summer haul is gonna be monstrous *my YOI wallet sobs*
Like I said, who’s gonna need money when the Orange Overlord kills us all. I just hope he holds off until I get my Yuuri and Victor Nendoroids though
It’s four am I’m sorry I’m in highkey idiot mood.
