Dakimakuras anyone?

Here you go. Grab if you want because it is pretty rare nowadays and for a normal price of only 10k , it's pretty worth it. She's pretty juicy, literally.




Looks like I'm spared a bit of pain because looks like the new carnelian cover is only out for the next my bride event.
For now I got 2 copies of this for pre-order.

Just paid off my Hitagi Senjougahara covers as well from evening call, and I lvled up to lvl 2. Looks like for every lvl you gain, you get 10% more points per lvl and at lvl 4, you're given their mascot's dakimakura(Whoever she is~_~) And free shipping for all covers FOREVER!

Lvl 5 allows you to pick 1 cover of your choosing that will be given to you.
Gotta love evening call's loyalty system.

And also currently waiting to bid for the Raika Clesta covers.
Which there are already a few out now on YJA.

As much as I love Paint Musume's work, I'm actually on the fence about that that cover.

That's definitely pretty cool with Evening Call's system; I knew the point earning increased, but the system wasn't fleshed out past that beforehand. The previous level cap was 3, as well. All the other rewards sound absolutely amazing and is definitely making them love the circle even more. I'm really happy that they opened up the door to foreigners.

And yeah, I've been keeping watch on the Clesta cover since they started popping up yesterday. You have no idea how tempting it was the pull the trigger on the very first one with a buyout (at 35k for the full set.) But I didn't, and now there are 15 total listings. Definitely wish I had pulled the trigger on the 19k buyout I saw this morning, but I had literally just woken up for a few minutes and was too groggy to do anything other than search. Of course it wasn't there after I went back to bed and woke up, but the situation isn't too grim right now.

Edit: Oh, and I wonder how the shipping perk would work for us foreigners. I imagine we'd likely just get a 500 yen discount per item, or something, but that would still be fairly awesome.

Happened with my first my cover and literally had a stroke

Think I'll resist getting into any bidding wars on the Comic1 stuff, and just hope that they do weborders in the future when I can afford them ;(

Yokatta order arrived:

I definitely want the Clesta cover; that's pretty much the only thing I have to have. But I'm also interested in the Mukiryoko Monster Hunter cover and the Argyle Luka.

Nice batch of covers there. :D

Edit: Found the level guidelines on the Evening Call site, and it looks like it's still capped at Level 3 (15k experience.) But still, the level 4-5 rewards sound awesome. From my translation and understanding, it looks like your payment due date is also extended. And the way I understand the level 5 reward is that it isn't just any cover, but they'll do a unique cover with a character of your choosing and only you'll get it. If that were the case, that would be a truly amazing reward.

Woah that would be absolutely amazing if so. Wonder how many thousands it is to reach level 5 though lol.

Yeah, that's based off the rough translation though. It would definitely be an amazing bonus, well worthy of getting up there.

Just some rough calculations, though...

80000 EXP needed to reach level 5. Assuming no wasted purchases (for 0 EXP) and no promotions (2x EXP), that would be 80 covers at the average of 12k yen each. So not including Paypal fees/shipping, it's only about 960000 yen, no biggie.

It's gonna be a bloodbath, I currently have an eye on the 23k yen complete set, and if that's the only one left by tomorrow, I'll probably fight to the death.

And It seems they only show exp for the next lvl.
Unless you yourself have already hit lvl 3 and it isn't going any higher for you.

You know you make it sound so cheap. 80 covers worth of cash isn't something you'll accumulate that easy.But since it's you, I assume you have the cash to go around blowing that much.

B.A.L.L.E.R.S. FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!! Reading you guys' posts, MAN! I definitely enjoy this hobby a lot more now. I even started sharing my purchased covers on Facebook now. And by "purchased covers", I meant only my current Waffle cover. Anyway, back on topic!

Two covers that I found somewhere but didn't make it on time. These two are so hot, especially the bottom one!


Dark skins for the win! And the glossyness is too overpowered!

And for you guys bidding on the Clesta Raika cover, good luck! Hopefully she gets a web order!

And Willow, how did you get your hands on that Sonico cover? T_T

It was rereleased last month as a HobbyStock exclusive in 2way tricot form. I got it via Yokatta.

Damn son, posting your covers on Facebook? That is pretty ballsy, but at the same time it's quite admirable that you don't have anything to hide. :)
I'm not really a big fan of FB...too much information sharing.

Anyhow, I really like those Valkyria covers too, but have yet to buy any of them.

EDIT: YAY! My 300th post.

Yeah, will be interesting to see how it goes.

And nope, I'm level 2 but I just got credited the EXP from my first order (back in February) last night. When I was level 1, the cap was 15k and now that I'm level 2, the cap is still 15k. If you look at their FAQ, it actually mentions something about the cap being level 3.

It was 100% pure sarcasm. :P It's going to take me years to hit that cap, if I ever hit it.

Edit: You may have missed the deadline for the Valkyria covers, but some of the covers that are older appear to still be available. Hopefully it will be the same case with that set. http://www.ordin-soft.com/form.html

Dude, I think I'll probably move on from dakimakura collecting before I hit the EC level cap.

With the four covers I've purchased from them, I'm not even a Level 2 user yet. Looks like I need to purchase one more cover:

Points： 1100
EXP： 4600/5000

Yeah, in all likelihood I'd probably be the same. It's definitely a worthy award for loyal fans, but something that you'd really have to work at. That's interesting that your cap is at 5k; when I was sitting at 0 EXP, mine was listed at 15k. Maybe I was victim of a weird bug or something.

Off topic, but it is pretty cool that H.O.P. sells bath posters. Do you guys know anywhere else sells those products?

On a regular basis? Nope. But HOP's bath posters are really cool, with the vanishing clothing when hot water is applied... though you really have a constant stream of water on it for it to remain clear. You can search on YJA for other bath posters, though. Just search お風呂ポスター.

I have no idea where to get them (aside from a few available in mainstream stores like Amiami). I did get one while in Japan though at Toranoana, they had it included as a special edition extra for Hyocorou's Kakushi Dere book which I picked up. Perhaps they have others too, I've never really checked... (a quick check shows they have a tiny handful..)

As Shashin says, the black bikini parts turn transparent under running hot water...

Bring on the hot water!

This site has actually reviewed quite a few poster sets, though not all are bath posters (they also have some sheet, tapestry, and dakimakura reviews, too):

I wonder how he managed to get the shots of them transparent without any obvious water.
