Gacha Review: Ace Aviator

Sorry for the long update ==V been busy.

When I saw the gacha title(and font), I squealed. FINALLY! A somewhat militaristic gacha. But oh dear, I was expecting a Saving Private Ryan or Inglorious Basterds-ly gacha. More mature and really militaristic. With buckles, leather, studs, double jackets and belts.AND COMBAT BOOTS. AND BERETS. AND KILLER GUNS. *Rampage*

And then I remembered what my Biology teacher said:
"When you cannot control a thing, set expectations low." --Jaren P.L.Vecino

Now my Biology grades should go higher because I can remember what the teacher said. Ironically, it's not even related to Biology. Ahh, whatever. I fancy some items in this gacha too.

Personally I think the radar thing is enough without the scrollboxes. Not very compatible with most items =/ But will be a wanted item for someone who dreams to world-destruct :P

Tops--Female
I was reminded of Winry Rockbell when I saw Mechanic Gals, lol. Why do TM always put triangle-shaped bras and never tube tops?(I WANT TUBE TOOOPS) Looks pretty fun. About the City Gals, they're pretty. I like the soft, cool colors of the 50-GC ones (Not the pink one!) and the bold, fiery colors of the Super Lucky ones. Well, you don't need to equip any more shoes or necklaces, they give it as a set to you.

Tops--Male
Now I really WISH that there's a necklace item called Six-Packs. Or Eight-Packs. So that I can get a glimpse of those pixelscular squares if Selfies wear Mechanic Boys XDD. And oh woot! The Aviator Pilots fits my expectation. Complete with criss-crossing buckles. Nice.

Hairs--Female
Very versatile. Formal yet informal, boyish yet feminine, tidy yet bit messy. Too bad they don't come in a lovely oak color or jet black.

Hairs--Male
Stylish! They look so cool and carefree.

Facial Features
OMG TM. How color-biased. Yes, I like the muted blue, but I think the red faces are worthy to belong in the Super Lucky, too! The reddies are very good looking, and I shall admit that they look better in Selfies with darker skin shades. The Elegant face is similar in appearance with the Smoldering Eyes--I saw GREEN eyeshadow on the blue one. They really suit City Gals, or shall I say metropolitan gals? :P I'm glad that there's facial features. Better and improved. More like Atgames.

Accessories
Simple but attractive and useful :P Especially if you're about to fly like Amelia. Or repair a broken machine.

CC GACHA
Tops--Female
Not only anachronistic, the design is bad, too. Cheap colors and retro does not belong in the Early Aviation era. Wrong timeline, TM. (And what relevance does they have with aviation? Nothing)

Jackets--Male/Unisex
Super nice! I really like their colors. Even the green one--yeah, green (DARK GREEN, coughcough) is not a common TM color scheme, but this kind of olive green is irresistible. At least for me, it is.

Accessories
Hats--some looks cheap and some are gorgeous. You don't need me to point out which ones, right?
Glasses--WHAT THE HECK--okay. I don't like it, but those glasses may come in handy sometime *Grin*
Gloves--HURRAY. THEY ARE BACK! Baby! The 3rd removed shop item which got revived in gachas! Will be very useful.

Special Post-dition: Stylish Fishers

I'm sure all you active TinierPeople know that there's an event called Defeat Lord Kujak. And since the event started, people who wants the prize starts to flock around the water bodies of the Town, hoping to catch 20 fishes to defeat the Lord.

Meanwhile, when I was fishing, I noticed stylish fishers too, which I will feature. This special postdition will consist of active fishers, away fishers, and random people at ponds and beaches and rivers :D *Yes, i went everywhere!*

A fishing princess we got at the pond! The golden color scheme is not glam, but equally pretty. I am amazed how she used a gold Tactic Wings (cmiiw) to match the rest. Revolutionary!
Highlight: The wings.

 

Simple and cute.

 

I adore this! Love the usage of the cloak--it blends in so well. Perfect.

 Grey with a bit of color = sophisticated. Her expression WIN. She looks like she's bored with fishing.

Reminds me of the anime Saiunkoku Monogatari aka Colourclouds Palace. He looks EXACTLY like the palace officers! Brilliant, really brilliant. 

She belongs to the palace, not the fishing villages! Stunning, elegant. Great color coordination--black, bronze--gold.

How cute. A zettai ryouiki with hood, blindfold and furry boots.
For those who don't know what Zettai Ryouiki is.. the area of bare skin seen between a skirt(in this case, the long hoodie) and thighhighs (or socks, stockings etc).

 Blushie overloaad! Surprised that people can actually wear that hair..well.

Top+skirt creates a very..ladylike "gown". Interesting.

Super-adorable combo of items and the right amount of frillies. Win!

Lookie! A hot Lily Knight went fishing! He's hot because he equips items perfectly. <3<3 Way to go!

Whoa, a siren at a pond? I thought sirens belong to the ocean! Miss Siren here looks annoyed. Maybe she's lost..Well, with those good looks, I'm sure someone will bring Miss Siren home.

This fisher brings back old memories from the era when I was a total newbie. TwT *curls in corner* I love the usage of Akumarin eyes. (Or is it Akumalen?)

 Fascinating fisher-clown-carnival boy. Cannot describe this better, but this fisher's outfit has a strange charm that I like. Is it the cloak? Maybe..

So squeee! She's a perfect Zettai Ryouiki, grade S! Indicated by twin tails, tsundere personality, and prevalence of the Zettai Ryouiki ;DDD

Ohoho~ A bad boy type. I adore the look on his face and how it matches with the overall outfit. Indifferent, cool, fashionable. A type of guy that girls rave. (Tip: If you seek TM romance, dressing well will help.)~(*u*~)

Chic fisher. Girly, yes, pink, yes, adorable, yes.

I guess that's it for now :D

Extras

Sexy boy. HOMAGAD, I wish I have a body like that IRL. =P~ But it's weird to see a guy havin' such killer figure.

Me and my twin in a fashion show. If you want to improve how you dress, join shows. You'll get better. And if you're lucky, you will meet me :DDD

A disastrous fashion show XDD

Fashion Police #10

A yellow-tinted feast for the eye! Every item compliments each other very well, except for the teddy bear.
Highlight: How he use things from different gachas to create an original look.

Lady Gaga comes to town! Wearing her signature quirky outfits. This time she wears leather, not meat.
Highlight: The extremeness of the leather suit.

//And when I see your face (faaace)// I saw sunshine and summer flowers//Cause this is awesome in a cheery way..//
Highlight: The face made the cheerful feel.

The adage "Less is more" still applies! This outfit is composed of 5 items, with a 2:1:2 ratio between Hetalia, Newbie, and shop items. Still, it looks very good.
Highlight: The simple, solid colors of the shirt+pants+sandals

Funky colors! I like the simplicity. The hair matches very well with the PJs and shoes, and the crown and jacket tone down the funkiness :D
Highlight: The crown + jacket.

Stark, contrasting colors made this Selfy eye-catching. A bold match between black, white, and blood red as a touch-up. Fantastic!
Highlight: The short pants--hot.

Gacha Review: Flower Shop

Welcome to the flower shop! It's the first quarter-gacha. And Atgames (JPTM) don't have it! Whee! Yays.
This gacha has clothing and interior items. Only 8 items, and the complete sheet prize is yummy. Besides, it's cheap.

Tops:
Adorable! I like them all. I can imagine a kid running around in those pretty overalls. The checkered shirt looks ethnic--cool.

Headgear:
I believe that wouldn't fit with spiky hairs that are volume-y in the upper part...

Apron
Similar to Cafe Apron, only longer and decorated with a rose print.

Watering Can
Sleek, more chic design compared to the event Watering Can.

Interiors
Flowers will be very useful as a decoration, beautifully detailed too.
 I really like the flooring, it looks dynamic, modern and simple.

BG
Too crowded to my taste ;( but it's still good. Not very wearable though.

EXTRAS! People strutting their Flower Shop items C;

Cute, isn't it? The muted pinky purple hair matches very well with the shirt and pants. Stunning, daring combination of contrasting colors. Too bad the shoes are too greenish.
Highlight: Matching hair and purple-gradient of the shirt.

Awesome, even that a few almost invisible curls didn't fit the bandanna. She looks casual, yet gorgeous.
Highlight: Kanji T-shirt gives a casual, drowsy feel ;P

Gacha Review: Miracle Star 2 aka Miracle Heart

The sequel of Miracle Star, one of the most hideous but wanted gachas of all time. Ironic, mhhm? And sexist, too. Perfect for hardcore mahou-shoujo lovers! I bet a lot of (tweenage) girls will spin this.

In reality, I know a tweenage girl that spent LOTS of G-coins in the Miracle Star.
(And even if TM's a 13+ site, I met a 8-yr-old girl in Selfytown today. HA! She acts like an 8-year-old too.)


Whatever. Let's review.

GC GACHA
Animated
One word: Hideous. Even if they are compared to Star's animated--their Purple Devil and Pretty Angel are good--. Wrong color choices. The complete sheet's Villain version is much better. And what makes them worse? The sparkles. Looks very cheap, I tell you. Stephanie ears looks way more expensive than these, honestly.

Tops--Female
Hey, they're quite good. I like the sailor uniforms. Heart Angels are okay, the green and purple one is pretty. Heart Villain..average, quirky, not very good to collect. They're like the Star's equivalent of Starry Style.

Hairs--Female
Tell me that the twintails originally belongs to the Shop. Cheap, cheap looking. The side ponytails are like the proportionally correct version of Neru hair. Looks good.

Accessories
Hairpins and wings are super love! Easy to wear and match. Tambourines--looks like it's taken directly from Tokyo Mew Mew. <<Only mahou-shoujo manga I read til finished<<

CC GACHA
Tops--Male
What. The. Hell. Are. THESE? The lackeys, I mean. They have no string attached to Miracle or Hearts. Wrong gacha, Lackeys! Uniforms--standard. Headgears--also standard. Metal staffs? That's nice!

Gacha Review: Blissful Nightmare

This gacha lives up its name! Indeed, Blissful Nightmare is blissful. Uber-awesomeness.
*puts this gacha in favorites list* My favorite sleeping gacha.

GC GACHA
Animated
Until this time I don't understand what relation does lilies have to nightmares. Well, I like the inverted S-shape of the lilies. Nicely animated and stunning details--it's something you shall be thankful if you get it. Not very versatile, but I bet it will look good on classical themes.

Tops--Female

Beautiful. Simply beautiful! And they comes in basic colors, so it'll be easy to mix and match. Elegant and sweet, a must-have! GIMMEH!

Tops--Male
Adorable! Reminds me of

Imagine Hibari in those supercute pajamas. *Imagining* *Nosebleeds* <<hell yea I'm a worshiper :DD
This version of male sleeping attire is far forward in quality compared to Sleeping Princes. (Not really a fan of Little Lord Fauntleroy-ish look)

Accessories
The headgears are very good and wearable C; Simple, but attractive. I want to huggle the bunnies, they're so squee. The rest's also good, and I feel a strong urge to make reserves on everything.

 CC GACHA
Tops--Female
In CC ratings, they do 4.5/5. Pretty good design, easy to mix and match with other stuffs.

Accessories
Honestly, meh. Sure, the sheep is cute and the slippers are good. Lipsticks? Geez. Hate the stiffness of the ribbons--are they starched?

I'm definitely going to waste a ticket.

Gacha Review: Dragon Spirit

I guess TM's gacha is following a pattern now. Here's the newest Japanese Magincient (Magical+ancient) gacha, the Dragon Spirit. Involving demonslayers, princesses, and swords. Again.
In some ways I strongly agree that this is a sequel to Sengoku Reign, which is like half a year ago. The models above use Sengoku hairs, and the item design are similar, too.

Well yeah, let's begin the review.
GC GACHA
Animated

Is it a dragon? In my eyes, that looks like a snake crossbred with a frill-necked lizard. I like Mystic Chinese Dragons better. Nice try, at least TM break away from the usual moving swords.

Tops--Female
OHWOW, I love them! Sealing Art Mikos' colors and form are super nice. Worth collecting. Especially the blue one, with the delicious midnight blue shade..Tempting! Snake princesses are great, I like the flowing garments and matching colors.

Tops--Male
Definitely a must-have for samurai/Japanese fighter lovers, the Sealing Masters. The other top..average.

Accessories
Pretty standard. I somewhat like the hairpins and the lance umbrellas are interesting.

CC GACHA
Tops--Female
I'm sad. They would be one of my favorite CC tops without the armorlike sleeves. Well, they are almost equally as good with those sleeves.
I like how it comes as a set with matching shoes.

Tops--Male
Those look more like combat attire than school uniforms. Whatever, it's okay. Sometimes TM made me want to bleach my eye for their clashing color combis. Especially the blue one.

Accessories
Innovative! They didn't put any unsheathed sword! *applauses*
The demon claws are super cute :D O.0 huge rifle, is that Japanese? Don't think so. Put on the horizontal katana to make your selfy a Selfy Kebab. Sacred katanas--good, and the paper seals are very well detailed.

Fashion Police #9

< Genius combination of blacks and golds (and a bit of brown).
Simple, not overly accessorized, yet good looking.
Highlight: Golden touches of the hat and eyes.

>> Amazing, creative combination of items. Black and white with a little of color is hot.
Highlight: Eyes+sneakers+earrings.















<< Literally hot selfy!
I really like the colors and how she matched it all. Good choice of eyes. Usage of Fire Demon Jutsu is stunning. Only thing I deem odd is the hairpin. That kind of hairpin should be used only to updos, otherwise it looks a bit odd :(
Highlight: Awesome eyes and usage of Fire Demon Jutsu.

You know I don't usually like feminine, pinky Selfies. Especially those who used TOO much pink. Can't resist capsing this selfy, though.
 She did it so well! The pale yellows tone down the pinkiness, and the best thing is that she doesn't over-accessorize. Love the way her bitten chocolate match with her doggy.
Highlight: Chocolate+doggy combi

<< Simply stylish. Sweet and edgy at the same time. Wrong eyes, in my opinion. Too..bland. Cool Black eyes will do much better.
Highlight: The guitar!

Gacha Review: Axis Powers Hetalia

Is this coincidental? At my last Gacha Review I wrote something about Feliciano and Hetalia and Marunikaite Chikyuu. Well, I guess I have a bit of divination talent in myself. Yes, I often draw a fashion drawing and next--it appears on TM! Whoa whoa.

This Hetare-gacha, oops, I mean Hetalia gacha is the fourth sponsored gacha in TM. 3rd gacha that costs 75-Gcoins. And that means pure CC users like me--who never own any single Gcoin-- can afford it fresh from the maintenance. Whatever. I still enjoy looking (and reviewing) pretty things *wink

Not every Hetalia character appear in this gacha. The main Axis Powers troika made the most appearance. Beside those three, there's also Switzerland aka Swiss and Liechtenstein too. I was expecting Hungary or Hong Kong..Or Ivan with his sunflowers.

Since this is a character-gacha..Let's review per character.

N. ITALY aka Feliciano Vargas aka Veneziano aka Ahoge-boy /SLAPPED
Feliciano's eyes resemble Cute Wink Brown a lot, yeah, but it still retains the Felicianic goofiness there :D
Clothes: The screen outfit looks kinda cheap. No offense.
Hair: Oooh! Holy ahoge *pulls* The color's very nice. Auburn with highlights.

Germany aka Ludwig aka Doitsu aka Sausage :D
Eyes: So typical of Germany, ever-serious and stoic. Not to mention so cute when blushing >:"3
Disappointed at the face w/glasses. It's exactly the same with the normal face, just adding glasses. (Cmon, we can do it ourselves!)
Clothes: Average militaristic clothing. Not bad.
Hair: Will be practical for cosplays, I believe. 

Japan aka Kiku aka Tentacle-lover *Evil grin
Eyes: GIMME GIMME. That is better than Akahitoha, at least for me :P Love the warm brown gradation.
Clothes: I heart the matte greyish-white color of the outfits. Looks vintage and classy :D especially since it's combined with gold.
Hair: Raven-black hair with side bangs? Win.

Switzerland aka Swiss aka Vash Zwingli
Eyes: Disturb him a bit little and he'll kill you. Vash's face looks damn annoyed.
Clothes: I LOLed at the pinky pajamas, it seems to be very comfy :D The academy uniform's nice too.
Hair: Very unique as it is blonde with darker edges.

Liechtenstein
Eyes: Another face with blushes! Liechtenstein's blush is faint, but visible. It suits shy Liechtenstein very well.
Clothes: Simple but beautiful. I like this better than Elizabeth's dress. (Dunno why, I am currently addicted to classical dresses like this)
Hair: Adorable! Yellow with pinky lowlights win.

Accessories
Kind of disappointed on how simple they are..I mean, wasting 75GC for a barely visible ribbon or a barrel? Overpriced, I think. Well, everything is of good quality..I like the hat, ribbon, and white flag the most. Lmao. Oh, and Pochi-kun is cute too!

Gacha Review: Choco Valentine

Wooyeah! It's nearing Valentine. And here's another Valentine gacha, chocolate-themed. An expansion of Sweet Paradise's popular Chocolate items eh?

Compared to last year's Valentine gacha, I think this gacha has better items--with exception to the animateds. That's pretty obvious when we're talking about Blushes and Heart Teddies, which are STILL a most-wanted item. Even after Alchemy! Sparkling sugar crystals won't ever beat those two.

And there's a gifting event, similar like TM had a year ago. Last year the event was to gift Sweet Sets, and the reward items are highly wanted. Like blue Heart Teddies, white BM and Mouton Coat. This year TM gives us freedom to give away our items (Or disposing trashes), but we shall gift 100 Selfies. Hard work always worth the reward, and I'm looking forward to the Jewel Eyes. C'mon, from 2400+ items in my closet, about half are trashes. The worst part is to type receiver's names..I hope my keyboard won't breakdown after this.

Ok, stop that random blabbering. Let's review.

GC GACHA
Animated
Excessively sparkly in my opinion. And I don't quite like sparkly items, for example Edward Cullen. Is that really sugar crystals? Or snowflakes? I like their whirling motions, but their attractive movement are overshadowed by those hideous sparkles. Honestly, this will be a neat animated without the sparkles. Or glimmers, or whatever you call it.

Tops--Female

Atgames' influence is more conspicuous in 2011, which is good. Again, nicely done poofy dresses! They will pass as Amaloli aka Sweet Lolita. I'm pretty sure that Lolitas in TM are chasing after these. Color coordination, check--fancy the blue-brown combo the most, but everything are cute. Though lavishly embellished, they look sweet and retains the innocent, angelic aura of the gacha concept.

Tops--Male

Don't exactly know why but they reminds me of Trump King suits. Maybe it's the hearts. I doubt that real boys would wear this, really. Nothing really special but the colors.

Hairs--Female
Sexy. Seriously--it looks sexy. The curls looks really natural, playful and wild. Also love the colors. Definitely a must-have! I dreamt of a hair like this, and now I shall make the dream come true :D

Hairs--Male
Marunikaite chikyuu~ Marunikaite chikyuu~ Boku Hetalia!
That song just POPs into my head. Since there's an adorable ahoge atop--like Feliciano's hair. Natural-looking curls--read Female Hair description above in 3rd sentence--, even the ahoge!

For those who don't know, Ahoge is a part of hair that pops out the hair-stream.
Example of popular Ahoge owners: Edward Elric, Konata Izumi, Feliciano/N. Italy

Accessories
Apart of the headdresses, they're not generally collect-worthy--at least in my opinion.

CC GACHA
My expectation failed me. For real! I expected some chocolate-related stuffs like cakes or something sweeter.

Tops--Female
Judging by the design, I think that it belongs to the same series to Dewdrops Dresses. Average, but it's something that maid enthusiasts will happily hoard.

Tops--Male
Nice design, I like the casualness. Will be much better if it comes in another colors!

Bottoms--Male
Same opinion as the male tops': Nice, but will be better in other colors.

Shoes
Not really wearable =/ I admire some, though. The green-white Stripe Heart is admirable.

Fashion Police #8

Snorkita did a lovely combination of purple, grey, black and white. I like how she uses the Pumpkin Chignons to create a pretty-looking outfit.

ppaauu's peachy pink Selfy stood out from the crowd. If I am a newbie, I'd think that the hair and dress is a set. The hearts made a nice touch of cuteness ;3

Extremely cute! This guy I forgot the name *sorry TwT* makes use of that facial feature very well, which I rarely see. Awesome addition of the bunny, it makes the selfy looks cuter *u*

So that's what Loopy Twin Tails are for. I like the purply overall theme--but the eyes are an exception.

Super adorable Selfy! Personally, I like how Shinjilim makes a gradation. Upper part is white, middle part is light blue and lower part is dark blue. And the fox that "blends" with his hair~

One of the best mix-and matched I've encountered so far. I heart the golden pieces--it makes the overall Selfy looks classy-expensive-gothic-steampunky. Not to mention dangerously elegant :D

Gacha Review: Selfy and the Beast

A more specific gacha about the classic Beauty and the Beast..an alternate version of those B&tB items of Magical Fairy Tale. Dang, now how can I get out of the Beast Ears in my closet?

GC GACHA
Animated
Great animation effects and intricate details..Not very wearable, but worth collecting. Complete with a giant sparkling rose, rose garden and poodles.

Tops--Female
Whoa, what a poofy dress *o* Can't imagine how hard it is to sit down and move. IT MUST HAVE A CRINOLINE, to create such poof. But blah, where's the yellow one? I was expecting a Disney Belle dress, but apparently TM don't want to deal with copyrights and so, there's no yellow Beauty dress until now. (What's the yellow veil for then? o.0)

 The apron dresses are cute. I like the brown one the best :P

Tops--Male
Better, refined version of the Beast Suit. The colors are way nicer.

Hairs--Female
TM, Y U NO REMAKE? That is a wild twin of the hair in Special Hair Gacha.

When since hairs are shirts and cloaks are hairstyles? Nice cloaks, though ;D WANTTT.

Hairs--Male
I'm not sure what I think about the male hairs...I prefer Beast Prince Hairs better.

Accessories
Awesome cloaks and great books.\(^o^)/

CC GACHA
Tops--Female
They wowed me. I rarely see CC poofy dresses that are actually good. Well detailed, too.

Tops--Male
..Princely handsome :P Blue one's the best.

Accessories
I think the tiaras are a set with Dream Necklaces. Cute hairpins, but OH SO HIDEOUS, IS THAT REAL FUR? Those shawls.

Fashion Police #7

Whoops, sorry for the Zoom window! ichi_amiera's selfy is a good example of the usage of yellow and browns.

Very interesting item combination..even those who does not match each other. deathrow4 is a good recycler ;P

Bradley there's done an impressive job. I like his kuudere persona, enhanced by the bleakies and hair.

Looking cool with shop items, why not? nErv did it aight. I love the wristbands and guitar case's gold and white combination. Cool.

Daring combination between pinks, white and green, but Syuri Hime nailed em. And I'm glad that the Stephanie Mike still exists. *It's extinct, at least in Town*

I never seen anyone wearing Stag Beetle Shirts, and he wears it very well.
