Starting the C77 stack with Baby doll biscuit, a collaboration between Morinaga Korune and Okazaki Anko. I’m already familiar with Morinaga Korune, with her loli, lolita dress and overall cute style, but it’s my first time that I see Okazaki Anko. Baby doll biscuit is a 20 pages doujinshi, cover included, and has some high quality printing as I can’t see the screening with my bare eyes, but it might also be an effect of the paper which is grainy, so the processing in the end wasn’t easy. I still have some flaw in the scanning workflow but I should address them for the next release. [PNG]

The doujinshi start with a rather gratuitous pantsu shot. Schoolgirl getting their skirt stuck between their back and their bag is a rare sight ^^;. But this is the only pantsu shot featured in this book. Exactly one half of this book is filled with Morinaga Korune’s art, and the rest is of course Okazaki Anko’s.

We quickly get to Morinaga Korune’s strong point, lolita fashion. I really like lolita fashion, and I find her artstyle really cute. There isn’t a lot of illustration from her, mostly because there is already 2 pages spread. Page spread are usually annoying, but since it’s a thin doujinshi bound by staples, it’s less irritating than lets say, a big artbook.

The middle of the book shows the transition in artist. While the two artist are quite similar, there are small difference which hopefully allows us to distinguish who drew what. If you want to know: The difference is in the eyes, white reflection and shape. I have small preference for Morinaga Korune’s art which seems to be more polished.

In fact Okazaki Anko is more like an older version of Morinaga Korune’s style. With time it should improve. I have no problem with artist copying another as I think that they will always have their own style no matter how hard they try to copy, and in the end they will derivate it and find their own.

Unlike the first part, her half have some different theme, like bunny girl and miko. Less lolita fashion, which I won’t complain either as it’s still cute! You also have the feeling that there are more art since there are less page spread.

In fact the whole doujinshi is cute, so if you like cute stuff, lolita fashion, this is a really nice doujinshi to have. It’s still available at Toranoana for those interested.

Frill*frill – Morinaga Korune
Nostalgic Barbie – Okazaki Anko

I think I have never seen Morinaga Korune draw something else than loli, and it seems to continue with Baby Doll Biscuit, a collaboration doujinshi with Okazaki Anko, who I have never heard of before. Both have a distinguished and recognizable artstyle, and they are rather fitting in this 20 B5 pages doujinshi. Going by past experience, it’s not going to be cheap. There is also a little set which will have a telephone cleaner, and a bonus book.

And just to verify my theory, here is one more DS case.

CHRONOLOG – Izumi Sakurazawa
Fururi – Hinayuki Usa

They must really like each other as they have yet another stand together. Now as there is quite a lot of stuff, you better check the webpage directly. So Sweet is a monochrome yuri hentai doujinshi, featuring yet again Youmu and Yuyuko.

Sakura-Rou- is a collaboration between Izumi Sakurazawa and Kijima Renga of RengaWorks, with 36 pages of black and white manga for Touhou.

Kairo is Hinayuki’s doujinshi, a huge doujinshi of 120 B5 pages, 32 in colors, the rest in monochrome. This is rather interesting as it features more color page than a thin doujinshi!

Yumemi shoujo no yume sen is her second doujinshi, with 20 pages of color illustrations for Touhou.

Then, the collaboration doujin is just a Touhou calendar to hang on your wall, with 7 sheets.

To finish, the real set will have a cute bag as shown here, and a dakimakura, one face drawn by each artist. I think that in all these goodies, I would only pick Fururi’s.

CASCADE – Hasekura Chiaki

Hasekura Chiaki has a nice set, with 2 doujinshi, Macarons Color 5, a full colour doujinshi, and Alice Mode 2, a monochrome doujinshi, featuring a manga. Then, there is some shitajiki or something like that with an hologram surface and a bag. Not on the image is Alice Mode which will be resold.

Cut a Dash! – Misato Mitsumi

Misato Mitsumi will have her traditional calendar, with 16 pages which I guess will cover a bit of 2011. It’s mostly original art, with some fanart. The rest is Roughplus, which as it’s name indicate, a doujinshi with rough art, and then, Esquise Monochrome, with monochrome illustration.
