  • Night at the Museum 
    With the Japanese release of Fate/Extella around the corner big events like this Fate/EXTELLA MUSEUM are surely going to pop up. Of course, the are also selling a bunch of exclusive merchandise at this event as well.
  • Number 81
    For the 20th Anniversary Issue of TECH GIAN, it seems that Takeuchi drew a Bunny Girl Saber. I guess the only remaining question is when will she be added to Fate/Grand Order.

    A sad little not that Eir Aoi is going on indefinite hiatus due to poor health.
