Sept 7 is the 5th Anniversary of the Busou Shinki line!
Let's have a hearty cheer, and wish for 5 more years of milking our wallets!

Konami, always being one for a good thing, has a special, 50% off sale on a bunch of Shinki stuff. (List Here) Unfortunately, it's on Konami Style only, but it shouldnt be to bad, even with Proxy markup.

Furthermore, you can now view the recorded shenanigans at their 5th Anniversary event over at their live store. Special previews of upcoming Shinkis, customs, and other assorted interesting bits, including most of the soundtrack of the 2nd Character Song album. (RABU RABU NANO DA!)

Show more love to your fans that are outside Japan's borders! >.< Support English(speaking) people with their fandom.

It's a start, but doesn't make much difference. It's as helpful as the URL being in romaji

use Google Chrome's build-in translator. It's translated well enough to understand what it's saying. =)

Ha! So that is why we had Moon Angel release on Youtube. Awesome! And interesting wallpaper. A belated congratulations to the Shinki and Konami line!

As for the English bit....yet somewhat unrelated....that probably explains why Konami extended Battle Rondo/DS till October 31st. They probably do listen because I think I had them respond to me once, I think....I cursed at them that people are busy and they couldn't tend to their gals on Battle Rondo during the summer and on the same night I noticed the update mentioning the extension to Halloween. Coincidence? Good timing? Taking advantage of it with DS

Next day I saw people cracking jokes that Konami can't do things on time in Cbox.....
