[News] Animate Lottery's back

[kasumicc.livejournal.com]

I'm sure many of you still remember past Hetalia Animate Lotteries (for those who don't know what I'm talking about, this may enlighten you a bit). Well, I have some news here...news that may be not that good for avid collectors :P

Starting from July 26th, Animate's bringing once more an Hetalia version of their lottery. That means, plenty of rare, new goods! Get ready for some crazy auction bidding action, once again xD

Details in the official website. Pictures under the cut.


This time, we'll have 5 different kinds of prizes. Prizes are as follows:

Prize A: Tapestry


Prize B: Long pillows (YEAH, PILLOWS AGAIN)


Prize C: Keychains (YEAH, KEYCHAINS AGAIN)


Prize D: colored paper(?)


There's going to be a Prize E as well, clearfiles. Three possible choices. No picture for these ones yet.

So, what do you think? xD

Thank you so much for sharing! This is exciting news, if only I know how to participate~ Or I'll just have to wait for people to hopefully sell some of the merch here...

There is also apparently 3 Clearfiles but no pictures yet? Interesting!

But ahh, I am actually a bit disappointed at this lottery. I was hoping for more exciting items, I guess? And well, no Prussia nor Gilbird this time around :C (but that's just me since I collect his items xD)

\o/ 3 sets of 2 clearfiles, it looked like!
But idek I could be wrong and it's like. 3 clearfiles total, 2 characters on each. So you can ignore me.

On one hand, item choices aren't the most amazing. On the other, Anikuji chose Hetalia again. The series might not be dying as fast anymore. = w =

[psanon.livejournal.com]

Yup, 3 sets of 2 clearfiles. Full colour A4 \o/
So, I am going to assume they are doing allies/axis characters.

Maybe not for the Japanese fandom, but the Western fandom is different! (Hence why I don't know if I want to try my luck in the animate lottery or not xD;;;)

[osoroshia.livejournal.com]

But it's six clearfiles totaaal. 12 siiiiides. Neither divides right. >u> There must be more.


=w= As long as new merchandise gets to keep happening, that's alive enough for me. The day my collection's actually 100% complete will be depressing, more than anything.

But yeaaaahh I wouldn't trust Western fandom enough for that. xD The pillows and the America/England keychain might sell for a little bit, but beyond that there's next to no hope.

[psanon.livejournal.com]

I'm hoping for Prussia--- BUT WELL, THAT'S JUST ME >w>;;;;


I suppose so! It's just fjdlgfdg it will die out one day and that will be good yet sad :c

Essentially. Sigh. :c
I'll just have to stalk Y!J.... I'm just hoping it won't end up like the last few where prices were crazy sob.

[osoroshia.livejournal.com]

The prices should be reasonable, all things considered. Crazy prices both times have been for the high tier items.
Pillows are tier B this time around, so they should be like the shirts and glasses rather than the Gilbird and massive pillows~

... And yet I still say this after winning a giant Gilbird for 100 yen. Uh.

/o/ There's luckily a lot of pictures in the same set as the art used for the Nordics. My hope is expanding on that, with more characters.


Unrelated, I love that even though they were posted to hetalia.com at about the same time, we see a post for this and nobody notices the part about Rome's song.

[psanon.livejournal.com]

True. But I am stingy lately since I've been ordering Pokemon mate items left and right (and oh god, I still have like 5 costumes to buy material and sew ;n; //rolls into bankruptcy)

Bro. Gimme the Gilbird //shot. How did I miss that xD

Hopefully they release more info soon!


And pff-- yeah, I saw that. Though I guess I just assumed someone already mentioned it? //Doesn't really keep track of hetalia com xD

[osoroshia.livejournal.com]

D: My Gilbird! I spent a whole $1.36 after commission!


Pokemon Mate's killing me, too. T__T They need to stop making thiiiings. How much merchandise can come out of ONE tiny art set ohmygod.
But it doesn't help that I've always had a side collection of Zangoose, and now that Hydreigon's worked its way into my Deino collection, I'm starting to want sets of my entire party. T___T Just thinking about the zukan figures is terrifying.



I check the comm constantly, but I just don't click on any of the entries.
If it's not goods or Russia or Liet, don't neeeeed. xD

[psanon.livejournal.com]

;m; //does want


And pff-- I know right? It's brilliant and yet... "orzzz
Blagh, zukan figures "orz I haven't even thought about collecting those yet. I fear it;;


Pfff-- Oh you! I only check if I get notifications from lj for specific tags xD
Otherwise //rolls

[kasumicc.livejournal.com]

I wasn't completely sure about that one, so thanks for the confirmation. I'll add the clearfiles' info to the post :)

[psanon.livejournal.com]

No worries! :)

[fmavatard.livejournal.com]

THAT IS A BODY PILLOW.

WITH HIMA'S DESIGN ON IT.

SWEET CHRIST.

[pixelmicrocat.livejournal.com]

Wait....don't tell me....
Long Pillows = BODY PILLOWS??? 8D

[pixelmicrocat.livejournal.com]

Awwww, they're only 50 x 20.... *should have read the info first*

[kasumicc.livejournal.com]

They should be around the same size as last year's Lottery's pillows, and those were still fairly big xD

[osoroshia.livejournal.com]

Ohgod everything's so beautiful ; u ;

Odd that the Axis don't get pillows, but Russia makes up for everything asdfghdfjhfds *flails at*

Can't help figure out what the Nordic things are any more than you have, but it looks like there's also a Prize E: Clearfiles.

Edit: Got the wiki page (http://hetaliaitemguide.wikinet.org/wiki/Anikuji) updated~

[itsukochan.livejournal.com]

I don't care if those aren't body pillows; I want one. ouo

Thanks for the... ah, for me, it's a heads-up to start hoarding money on PayPal, since I'm pretty sure I won't be able to join the lottery.

[hikari-kaitou.livejournal.com]

Thanks for the info. I wish I could participate, but I'm going to miss it by just 3 days :( Ah well, I guess it's better for my wallet that way.

[sirvalkyrie.livejournal.com]

No characters I want in this. Such sadness.

[arachnes-web.livejournal.com]

NORDICS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And those keychains!! Damnit Hetalia- every time I get to a point where I think I'm good with the merch I have, you put out more stuff.

[keinekitty.livejournal.com]

WHY. Why does more Finland stuff appear when I can't afford it ever... oTL

[julesie-g.livejournal.com]

How do you enter?! I don't care what I win even though I really want the pillows. XD

[fairywine.livejournal.com]

NORDICS MERCH OWNING INSTINCT, ACTIVATE! POWER OF...HAVING NO MONEY BECAUSE YOU WILL PAY ANYTHING TO GET THESE AND MUST HAVE ALL FIVE!

[chiisana00.livejournal.com]
