	Dengeki G's Magazine Mar. 2008. Got another high-quality issue of G's Magazine in today too, which is normally only available as a subscription but we have a few issues in. Loaded with high quality content, and a free Fortune Arterial figure (!).
	Light Yagami SD Figure ~ Deathnote -- Nendoroid Series. My wife and I are currently hooked on Death Note, so it's timely that we just got these figures in today. These are the reissued Nendoroid of Light Yagami, the twisted mind who's using the Death Note notebook to rid the world of criminals and evil-doers, and "L," the super genius who is trying to catch him.
	Megami Magazine July 2007 vol. 86. Megami Magazine is the #1 "reserve subscription" magazine at J-List because each issue overflows with beautiful anime and game girls, with tons of free stuff for you, like *12* double sided posters in this issue as well as stickers and a pencil board.
	Hello Kitty ID Neck Holder ~ Black, Pink. This is a cool item, a phone strap / keychain with an ID holder, featuring cool updated versions of Hello Kitty and her pet, Charmmy Kitty. Yes, it's rather odd that a cat has a cat for a pet, but then you have to start considering the whole Mickey Mouse/Goofy/Pluto question, and it all gets very complex.
	Yuki Nagato 1/8 Figure Swimsuit ver. ~ Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi *Preorder*. The gorgeous Yuki Nagato swimsuit version has come in, and it's a really nice one. Sadly, this was such a popular item as a preorder that we're almost out of stock, so hurry if you want to get one.
	Totoro Grow Up Measure Photo Frame. Wow, this is a really special item for anyone with kids: a real wood (of course) measure for tracking your child's growth, with places to put pictures along the way.
	Japan Mouse Pad ~ SUSHI. What can we say? This sushi mouse pad is fantastic, and features all the fish names both in beautiful kanji as well as in Romaji, that is, English so you can learn what it's called when you want to order some up.
	Relaxed Totoro Plush, More. The new Totoro plush toys for 2008 by famous Japanese toy maker Sun Arrow has been restocked, the cool "relaxed" Totoro that has soft fur and individually articulated fingers, too. Also, we've restocked the Totoro Pencil Case.
	Doraemon Bilingual Comic vol. 7. Got another Doraemon Bilingual Comic today, with both English and Japanese, right on the page. We just love these, it's a great way to study and enjoy Doraemon.
	New Check Set with Erasable Pentel Handy-line Slim (Knock type Marker). Here's a new "Check Set" memory aid that helps you learn any information better by highlighting the text you want to learn in green, then hiding it with the red sheet while you quiz yourself. Magically erase the green ink with the eraser ink -- fantastic! This new version features "knock" style pen, which means the tips of the pens are stored inside, like ballpoint pens.
	Mini Punch for DECO Bento ~ Sakura, Music. Here are two fantastic items, "punches" to create cool shapes out of nori for your bento. Make sakura flowers or musical notes. They also work with normal paper, too.
	Haikyo Hyoryu - Images of Destruction in Japan. What's cool of looking at old dilapidated buildings and the ruins of our modern society? Ask the Japanese, who seem to love books like this. Fresh stock of this gorgeous photobook of run-down places.
	Cloisonne Ware Beer Mug. We carry high-quality ceramic cups and other items from J-List, baked with traditional methods used in Japan for centuries. This is a beer mug that's extremely light and a joy to drink out of.
	Fitted T-Shirts for Girls. Remember that J-List offers dozens of great original T-shirts with funny kanji messages on them, including gorgeous fitted T-shirts for girls, made by American Apparel and printed by our staff in San Diego. Why not pick up some new J-List T-shirts for the summer?
	Bomb Apr 2008. Next, enjoy one of our favorite magazines, Bomb, one of the most popular magazines dedicated to Japan's beautiful bikini idols. This special issue features just about everyone -- Yuko Ogura, Aya Ueto, Satomi Ishihara, Aki Hoshino, and many more.
	Pure Leah! -- Leah Dizon. A super magazine for fans of the gorgeous Leah Dizon, the sexy idol and JPOP star that turned Japan's entertainment world on its ear. Gorgeous pictures of Leah throughout.
	No Money Novel Series vol. 2-4. The No Money series from Hitoyo Shinozaki is the best-selling BL comic in J-List's history. Now you can own the light novel series, which are beautifully printed and which feature all original illustrations inside.
	"H" Clinic 3 by Soft on Demand. Need some healing? Head on down to the "H" Clinic where the beautiful nurses will take care of you, dispensing sweet love to you that will make you all better. I love this series because of how incredibly professional the girls are as they perform, like perfect nurses in an alternate reality where this happens all the time.
