Hibiki

DGS Hibiki goods

Went to Animate in Akihabara where they were selling the newly released DGS Hibiki goods. These goods were released on 7/22, the same day as the September issue of SYLPH.

The new items include a couple clearfiles, and a couple seal mousepads. Both the front and back of the clearfiles are shown in the photo to the left (there are only 2, not 4). The clearfiles retail for 368 yen and the seal mousepads for 315 yen.

I really like the illustrations used for the clearfiles. The ending illustration on one of the mousepads is very nice too. The other one of HiroC and OnoD I’m not too fond of because their fingers are kind of bending up, which looks really unnatural. ^^;

More goods are scheduled to be released August 5th and 26th.

This issue’s bonus is a little mirror strap of Kuro Nyaa san. Not the best mirror in the world, but you can’t expect too much. Also included in this issue is the form to apply for the public recording at CharaHobby.

The latest chapter of DGS Hibiki has HiroC and OnoD at the beach. They finally get a vacation!? …Not exactly. They are forced by Teraikemen Shireikan to work a food stall to make some small change. Black Hibiki shows up and when HiroC asks Nozomu why they quit Hibiki, Nozomu tells him that as Hibiki, there are some rules that must be followed, and that there will come a time when HiroC and OnoD, too, have to make a decision. We’ll have to find out later what Nozomu means by this.

The cast of Black Hibiki was revealed in the latest August issue of SYLPH (released 6/22). Sakuya will be voiced by Okiayu Ryoutarou and Nozomu by Yonaga Tsubasa. A release date has still yet to be announced for the new drama CD. This issue’s bonus includes a mascot figure strap of OnoD. Very cute! The detail on it is quite amazing.

More DGS goods will be released in July and August. Included are new fastener accessories, clear files, mini clocks, seal mousepads, and more! They will be available at anime shops and Animate. Preorders are already open at the Animate Online Shop and Movic. Personally I think it would have been nice if they used new illustrations instead of recycled images from the game and previous goods.
