doujinshi (Page 2)
For when you’ve got too much sexy anime art to carry yourself, but don’t want the moving company to know what they’re carrying for you.
Ghibli, Star Wars, and a Japanese politician inspire some of the creative cosplays in this photo collection.
Filmmakers have created an action-packed video collage of some of the best costumes at a recent comic show in Taiwan.
Pixiv now gives users the option of turning their artwork into fully-illustrated doujinshi (fan-made comics) with just a few mouse clicks.
One of the things that contributes to the hole-in-the-wallet situation many manga and anime fans experience is related merchandise. Along with official merch, fan-made doujinshi and goods are sometimes just as attractive, not to mention rare since these self-made goods are usually produced in much smaller quantities.
For fujoshi (girls who are fans of Boys Love, or homoerotic manga and anime), doujinshi and doujin goods are even more tempting since it is only in these fan-made commodities that they can enjoy the forbidden fruit that is their favorite male characters being paired together. For non-BL fans, however, this is where things tend to get a little awkward. We’re not just talking about male-on-male action here, we’re talking male boob mousepads. See for yourselves after the jump!
