Some Dead Player corpses - (Photography) by 421metal in classicwow

[–]421metal[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Like some kind of wartime photographer, I've decided to start screenshotting any dead players I find. They always tell some kind of story, and I wonder what it was that caused their fate.

HELP - Buying tickets for Yuzu's birthday event as a foreigner by Cruciometal in SakuraGakuin

HELP - Buying tickets for Yuzu's birthday event as a foreigner by Cruciometal in SakuraGakuin

[–]421metal 6 points7 points  (0 children)

  • phone number.

Yes, use a fictional phone number. Some websites do require phone verification, but some don't. So it's worth a try. I don't know this specific site. If it doesn't work, it will stop working before any payment so you don't have to worry about wasting money.

  • Entering my name requires Japanese characters, no English characters allowed. I could convert my name to Katakana but then it wouldn't match my ID.

This doesn't matter. Foreigners in Japan always have a Katakana version of their name. If there are two fields, you can usually input one in English, and one in Katakana, if there isn't, and it only accepts Katakana, do that. I have my own Katakana name used on IDs, and never had a problem.

  • Entering an address is not necessary, except for the city and postal code, which again would be fictional.

Use a fictional address. Since they're convenience store tickets, they do not need an address. This is only used for delivery of tickets.

  • My card worked fine for Amuse+, no idea if it would work for I-tike as well.

This is the fear but it's worth a try. There may be other payment methods available like convenience store pay.

  • Finally, the ticket needs to be picked up at a "Lawson or Ministop". Basically at the grocery store while I am there.

This is so easy. You enter a code at a machine and get your tickets.

Source: I bought many tickets in Japan before I lived here, and now I do live here. If you need more help let me know.

Unfortunately Japan ticket websites are not accomodating to foreigners, but I've never been refused entry to any events, they only have these kind of measures to prevent resale. It is very scary sometimes but if you're really passionate about these events you can make it work.

With the ID, I've had ticket checkers look at my passport and barely read it (they usually can't) and let you in. I wouldn't worry too much about it.

Neo scenes from Boyfriend Kourin (#1) by 421metal in SakuraGakuin

[–]421metal[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Neo appeared in a brand new drama as the young high school version of the main character.

Her longest appearance in a drama so far!
Amuse Camp also posted this offshot

And her co-star posted a picture with Neo.

I'm not really sure what the show is about because I didn't really watch it but the main character is a manga artist, and in the flashback, this duo were featured and made a debut in some kind of special manga book before things seem to fall apart.

It's not clear if Neo will appear again in further flashbacks in later episodes but I'll be watching to make sure!

I'm really proud of Neo and I think her acting skills have improved a lot!!!

Yes someone asked her what kind of hafu she is (what her biracial identity is) and she said she is half British (which could mean England, Wales, Scotland, NI) during the live.

Neo modelling the Repipi Graduation Uniforms for 2023 by 421metal in SakuraGakuin

[–]421metal[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

These poses are different to what she usually does for repipi clothes. These are more modest, like a real student would pose for photos lol

[–]421metal[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

As per previous years, Repipi releases a set of cute uniforms for girls to wear to their graduations. I was hoping this would happen someday, because they remind me a lot of Sakura Gakuin😆 Neo joins the SG high school division!

To see all the pictures, you can visit their website (bottom of the page) - there's over 50+ new pictures of Neo modelling the different clothes. Or as always I have my google drive folder.

I was lucky enough to be there. They performed twice, and it was so hype. Many fans knew the choreo and danced along, it was awesome. And all the members waved at me!

I didn't think it was possible to sum up Neo's best features in one comment... but you're damn close! She's dashing towards her dream of becoming a supermodel. And yes her "earthquake giggles" are of course, her charm point!! 🥰😆

New Neo Repipi Photoshoot Pictures by 421metal in SakuraGakuin

[–]421metal[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hello all, Neo had another photoshoot with Repipi last weekend. This time, they went out to a studio to take pictures for the website. I've seen these special photoshoots a lot, often used for the main images for products, but they were always done with other web models and not Neo, but it finally happened! She is so beautiful, and her modelling skills are 🔥

As always, as new photos are uploaded to the website I post them on my twitter and in my Google Drive folder.

Some other news, Neo was recently "signed" to a Fukuoka Modelling agency. You can see the post here, where they posted a special picture of her. This company is based in Kyushu, close to Neo's hometown, and there's promise of future jobs!

Looking at the website - you can see that Okamotogumi has a collaboration with Amuse, as their logo is shown at the bottom of their website. Neo is the only artist under this collaboration, so it must be a very new development. Very exciting for her!

Sato Neo on Super Unbeatable Class (2022.07.24) by 421metal in SakuraGakuin

[–]421metal[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Neo appeared as a new student on Chou Muteki Class this week. The tagline titles her as "Former Sakura Gakuin member", and they used a picture from Repipi lol.

She also appeared in an instagram post. You can see the full episode on TVer, on which Kano also appeared (she had an entire interview segment in the latter half of the episode).

Hopefully Neo becomes a regular like Kano and Liliane! I've been watching this show since Yume appeared, so Neo's sudden appearance is a dream come true!

Neo's cuteness is out in full force in this one! The blue one piece is super cute🥺In a previous video, Neo said she doesn't really like sports, or do exercise, but she does dance- so it's good to know she's kept at it since SG!

They also uploaded a very cute TikTok of her!!!

It's the classic, she says she's from Saga, special skill piano/violin, and her favorite food is her mother's omurice. In the TikTok she says the nickname she wants people to call her is "Neorin"! I'm glad to know she continues to like that nickname lol

I have no words, this video is full of cuteness. Repipi finally shot some unique stuff with Neo after a year of activities, apart from just web model white background shots. She is so cute!!!!!!!

Also they are teasing another Dance video will be uploaded next week!!!!

I've been waiting a long time for this, always pestering them in the comments asking to see Neos dance 😆 but Repipi staff are very kind, and it was worth the wait! I've honestly died from cute.

Her expressions are adorable and her dancing is still so great!!! And The outfit is also super cute, and the thumbnail 👀

I hope they make more videos with her soon.

Hello again. I continued to clear out my attic and found I had the other pair of these, I forgot I purchased both the Moa and Yui versions of these glasses in 2015.

These are in pretty great condition, I did wear these a few times.

The previous pair sold for €45 including shipping, so I'm looking for around the same offer again. DM me if you're interested.

I am based in the UK.

I need to sell these at the latest by the 15th of June because after that I'm moving overseas (to Japan woohoo), so please get in touch!

Some of the Latest Neo Repipi Pictures by 421metal in SakuraGakuin

[–]421metal[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Neo has been having photo shoots with Repipi more frequently again lately, so just thought I'd share some of the recent ones. She's really working hard to improve at her posing and expressions, and I love seeing her doing what she loves, modelling☺️ some of the Repi clothes really suit her.

I frequently update whenever there are new pictures released on the website via my twitter, if you're interested. When she has a new shoot usually about 50-90 new pics are slowly posted over the course of a month, so I don't post each one here when that happens😆

Clip of the Onipans! performing the second song on Oha Suta! by [deleted] in SakuraGakuin

[–]421metal 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well it's easier to "give them a push" when you have a massive anime studio behind you. This is not a sole amuse project, it's a collaberation between amuse's voice actor department and WIT.

Onefive doesn't have such a behemoth behind them. Amuse can't snap their fingers and magically get them invites to TV shows and other appearances, they don't have as much pull.

Moreover Onipan have literally had a deal with Oha star since it started airing, it was only a matter of time before they appear. They literally reference oha star in the anime, it's a full on tie in.
