The 2nd volume of Nyantype is out and as usual, I decided to grab this volume as there are a few awesome and smexy posters I wanted. Before I dig into it, I just wanna note Nyantype is not a monthly release. I not sure why it’s not but I pretty sure the publisher, Kadokawa Shoten has it’s own reasons but I’m not disappointed as there’s a good chance I can get every volume if each volume suits my taste without impacting heavily on my wallet. ^^
Thank YOU for the show. :)
So what is Nyantype and how is it different to Megami you may ask. Well if you missed my earlier Nyantype Vol. 1 Impression review, both of those questions has already been answered. If your too lazy to read because the images are a big distraction, then this statement should sum up the answer for ya, “It’s similar to Megami or Megami version 2 in other terms”.
The beautiful expressions and eyes of Mikuru-chan. :D
This volume featured articles includes Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha: The 1st Movie, K-On!, The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, Hayate no Gotoku!! and many more. It also has a small column of the latest figures and other goodies coming out in the next few months which include 1/7 scale Saber Lily by GSC, 1/7 scale Nanoha by Alter (can’t wait xD) and a few more others by Alter and Kotobukiya.
Finally the only extra content provided this month is a B2 poster featuring Nanoha & Fate from the The 1st Movie and Nanoha, Subaru and Teena from the StrikerS series.
I think some ppl will kill for this poster of Fate-chan. :D
There’s a reason why ppl gave her a nickname, Spicy-Wolf. xD
The 3 pictures above are not part of the poster section. They are more like cardboard displays.
Alicia is more sexier than Edy. >_<

Readers interested in the scan pack can be found here.
Overall, a good issue. Nanoha fans, this is a must get. Non-Nanoha fans, this still a get because I’m sure there’s something in here that tickles your fancy. Be honest. :D
A few standout posters from this volume includes Holo for Spice and Wolf, Nanoha gang from the Nanoha series, Strike Witches, Canaan (really that is an awesome pose) and Yuki from the Haruhi series.
Still available at Hobby Search, grab your copy now. If there’s one at your local bookstore or Kino then don’t hesitate before it’s all sold out.

OMG IT’S FATEEEEEEE. Hm but I have already the mega tapestry in my room now, that’s way better than the poster paper quality of that Fate =/. Now I regretted not buying. Darn you Optic, for poisoning me. LOL.

Unfortunately as summer draws to an end I’m finding myself occupied by a social event every week, so they’re no-gets for me >_>

Whoa! I kind of want this issue. If only for that Fate poster. But there’s some other nice ones as well. Yuki and Horo look very sexy. Hinagiku too.
I’ll have to pay more attention to Nyantype it seems…

Surprisingly a lot of good posters in this one. Though I’m not too big on the mega poster for this issue. It’s just me I guess.

I’d kill for that Yuki poster…and that Fate one too. I need to start looking into these magazines that I can’t read…which is why I haven’t brought any yet.
