Just a heads up, I'll be closing my store on Sunday the 27th to prep for fanex~

[sarielscribbles]

Hey everyone! I feel like every time I post something here the past few times I’ve had to apologize for how dead my tumblr has been. I’m busy as always~ working on a paper that’s due next week and wishing I could work on stuff for FanExpo~ I did get a table by the way for anyone who’s going to be in Toronto for the con, I’ll hopefully get a chance to make a better post about it but I’ll be at table A203.

For those who won’t be able to attend and stuff I’ve reopened my store temporarily with stock left over from otakuthon last weekend. There’s very limited quantities currently in stock - I will be restocking my new Lotor and Matt charms for FanExpo but a lot of my older merch will be discontinued once they sell out. 

Bottle Klance charms sold out again so I have another round of preorders open for anyone who missed them and would like them. This might be my last restock for those. 

Feel free to check it out if you’re interested

Also note since I’ve received inquiries about it~ I can change the keychain attachment of all charms to a phone lariat. If you’d like me to change it, please leave a note at check out that you’d like a phone lariat instead of the default keychain. 

If you’re interested please do check out my shop

If anyone has any questions about anything please email me at [email protected] ^^ Or you can message me on twitter or instagram as I’m more active on those accounts (you can find me as ari0aki on both of them)

From the last round of preorders which I recently shipped out, I drew a couple thank you sketches for two really sweet repeat customers ^^ 

I love Lance! If you guys didn’t know already I adore this child so much! 

[sarielscribbles]

I’ve been seriously absent from here even over the break (which wasn’t even much of a break since I was working the whole time ;w;) so here’s a quick look at the stuff from twitter that I did last month~ I’ll have actual product pics for the charms and memos when I update my store this weekend. 

I’m honestly just so emotionally drained from marathoning season 2 all night and I have to get ready to leave for class soon~

[sarielscribbles]

I really hope those halloween inspired voltron charms weren't a limited time thing, because I just found them and I love them to death.

Hey thanks for your interest! I do still have some left in stock, not sure if I’m going to reprint them though. I should have my store updated and reopened this weekend! you can follow me on twitter for faster updates @ ari0aki  

[sarielscribbles]

ladyjanriel replied to your photoset “Hey guys!!! So I didn’t die in Japan though my blog kind of did haha...”

ahh so jealous ;w; wish I could buy these!! Looking forward for an online distribution!!

Thank you so much for saying so ^^ If all goes well I’ll have them up on my store this weekend! 

[sarielscribbles]

Hey guys!!! So I didn’t die in Japan though my blog kind of did haha ^^; Sorry about that~ As soon as I got back classes and work started and I’ve been kind of drowning in readings and my research pile is quite formidable.

But taking a short reprieve I’ve managed to make some new voltron charms, which I’ll have for sale at the small halloween con run by AN and then online after that!

So yeah, I’ll be with my darling table partner @cinnae at Doujinka Fest on Friday October 28th from 7pm to midnight at the Japanese Canadian Cultural Center, do stop by if you have a chance!

Also if you’re interested please follow me on twitter, ari0aki same as my tumblr, I’m a bit more active there ^^

[sarielscribbles]

Oh my goodness I adore the buttons I just got in the mail from you! They're your kitty Voltron ones - I got Keith and Lance. :3 Just wanted to say you're a wonderful artist and the extra little drawing of Lance made me so happy because he just so happens to be my fave haha! Thank you! ^^

Hi! I’m so glad they arrived safely and that you like them \(^w^)/ Thank you so much, you’re so sweet ;w; Yay, Lance is my favorite too!!

Wednesday August 24th cont’d~

Free! cafe (ﾉ´ヮ´)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧ Even after all this time this anime still has it’s hooks in me and I just love the atmosphere of sports themed cafes. I’ve been to quite a few at this point and the people who attend sports themed anime cafes are always a lot more approachable. Seeing everyone actively getting up and trading coasters and blind box items really is a fun experience.

Food was good, though I think I prefer the menu from last year’s Free! cafe a better. The matcha parfait was good but it’s got nothing on the matcha lava cake last time. Also I swear I had food too (not just dessert) but I got distracted and then completely forgot to take a picture of it ^^; I had Nagisa’s sort of deconstructed omurice dish.

No Makoto!!! Do you see all these coasters?! Between me and my friends we had so many chances and not a single Makoto in the lot ;w; My friend did get a Haru but she traded it to a really adorable girl who came to ask if we’d be willing to trade for it.

More walking after the Free! cafe, shopping around and stuff. Surprisingly didn’t buy much. I’ve been good at restraining myself so far!

[sarielscribbles]

Wednesday August 24th

So I entered the Free! cafe lottery twice online and didn’t get it either time, so we woke up early and headed to Akihabara to try our hand at the general admission lottery. I guess third time’s the charm, since I managed to pull a winning ticket! The seating was for later in the day so we went around Akihabara a bit and my friend had reservations for the Love Live cafe (of which I know nothing about) where I had a kind of peculiar but yummy parfait. There was like crackers in there? Everything was really cute though.

Tuesday August 23rd cont’d~

After the shrine we headed over to Takeshita dori. Lots of cute clothes and yummy crepes *w* And to end the day we stopped off at the Sweets Paradise sweets buffet!! All you can eat dessert (and some other food options like curry and pasta).

Tuesday August 23rd!

And I’m behind on my daily updates again... After our rainy day in Ikebukuro we were hoping for good weather as we set out for a day in the Ometesando and Harajuku area. We took an early lunch at the beautiful Aoyama Flower Market. The cafe is actually through the flower shop and it has such a lovely open integrative plant concept going on. Even directly under the glass table tops you could see planters with lush foliage.

The food there was amazing! So fresh and fragrant and the cold berry tea was light and refreshing. Not so sure how I feel about eating flowers, they don’t taste bad but the texture of the dried petals is a bit strange. Dessert was heavenly though, the rose parfait was all kinds of bliss, from the mousse and cake to the jelly and ice cream. ahhh I would go back there any number of times if I could end the meal with that dessert~

After food we headed back towards Harajuku station and stopped at Meiji Shrine. The walk from the tori to the main shrine takes a bit of time, but the sound of the gravel crunching beneath shoes and the sounds of the cicada crying is so hypnotically comforting. Coupled with the dappled light through the thick canopy of trees and the warmth, really made me feel like just curling up somewhere and taking a nap ^^;

Monday August 22nd cont’d~

After hanging around in Sunshine, we went to the Tokyu Hands for a much desired stationary run and I stocked up on some sketchbooks with the paper I really like and some pencils.

By the time we got out of the Tokyu hands and my friends restraining me from making some impulse purchases, it had finally stopped raining. One of my friends really wanted to go to a maid cafe at least once while we’re here in Japan so for dinner we went to Maidreamin. It’s a quaint little cafe, but it was unnerving as heck ‘cause when we got there the lights were off, and a maid rushed out to greet us and led us inside. Turns out they were just about to start a one of their scheduled performances. So no chance to mentally prepare, we were tossed right into it. I have to say it was a bit of a cuteness overload for me and my ears were burning with embarrassment for like half the time we were there. It was definitely a fun experience though.

We headed back to the apartment after dinner and made a quick convenience store run for drinks and some bread for the morning. And by some stroke of luck I found Initial D merch at the convenience store!! I am now the proud owner of a 3 inch long AE86 Panda Trueno with Fujiwara Tofu shop scrawled on the side door (ﾉ´ヮ´)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

And with that I’m all caught up. The plan for today is Harajuku though it’s supposed to have thunder showers, so we’ll see how that goes since Takeshita Dori and Meiji Jingu are both outside things~

[Forgot to mention that my weakness in resisting cute pillows lead to that purchase at J-World *points to kuroken*]
