Keripo's Corner Figures, Dollfies, Projects, Gaming, and TYPE-MOON

A lottery prize figure from Banpresto for TYPE-MOON’s 10th Anniversary event. Non-canon but still pretty beautiful-looking outfit design, but with some QC issues.

This time, it’s the original Saber from Fate/stay night, releasing her Invisible Air and readying to strike you down with Excalibur.

This is just the first of a long series of post-unboxing, backlogged TYPE-MOON figure reviews. After [url=http://myfigurecollection.net/blog/9814&blog=1]moving to my new place[/url], I set up a nice corner of the room for figure photography and took a bunch of review-style photo sets of figures as I re-unboxed them. Most of these figures are second hand, B/B grade, so keep that in …

Yesterday, a friend of mine living in New York linked me to a [url=http://gothamist.com/2013/11/11/she_just_took_my_empty.php]new maid cafe[/url] (website [url=http://www.maidcafeny.com]here[/url]) opening in downtown Chinatown. While I've been to Japanese maid cafes in my [url=https://keripo.com/category/travels]previous travels[/url], I've yet to visit a permanent one in the US. Which got me thinking, why? And yet, I also knew the answer; Japanese-style maid cafes cannot be …

A few weeks ago (Oct 25-27th), I attended Akicon 2013 as my first big anime convention since moving to Washington last year. In the northwest, there are two large anime conventions, [url=http://www.sakuracon.org]Sakura-con[/url] and [url=http://akicon.org]Akicon[/url]. I somehow managed to miss both last year, but made sure to attend this year (and plan on attending Sakura-con 2014).

But before TYPE-MOON became a commercial company in 2004 with the release of Fate/stay night, TYPE-MOON was a doujin circle. And …

After my [url=http://myfigurecollection.net/blog/10682&blog=1]first photoshoot[/url] with [url=http://myfigurecollection.net/blog/10593&blog=1]Saber Lily[/url], I really wanted to take her out for an outdoor photoshoot. So, while the weather was still nice, I brought Lily to a local botanic garden for her very first doll meet, with [url=http://myfigurecollection.net/profile/OhnoRaptors]OhnoRaptor[/url]’s [url=http://myfigurecollection.net/item/65962]Airy[/url] and [url=http://www.jadepixeldoll.com]jadepixel[/url]’s [url=http://myfigurecollection.net/item/160079]Mariko[/url]. Enjoy the photos! ^_^

This post was originally written for Guild Wars 2 (specifically in explaining why ArenaNet hasn’t stopped fly hackers stealing orbs in WvW yet), but applies to [b]pretty much any and every online game[/b] with damage/fly/wall/aim-bot hacks. In this post, there are two sections: “How does game hacking work?” and “What kinds of hacks are there?” I’m reposting it here after …
