Massive keeps on its collaboration with Jiraiya.  This is one of them, a swimsuit. 

This is one of the sold-out collaborations by Massive and Jiraiya.  I visit Jiraiya's personal blog occasionally, which helps me to order items before they are out-of-stock. The artwork was used for other collaborations like adult toy etc. 

These are another collaborations by Massive, Jiraiya and OC.  The images are from the cover art of G-men, a monthly gay magazine of Japan. 

It's been a while since I posted anything on this blog. Since last August, there have been many things in my life. I somewhat experienced the heaven and the hell. But right now I feel peaceful and I think that counts. Recently I purchased two lovely collaborations by Massive, seller of gay manga goods and Jiraiya(Jupiter of Japanese gay manga, I'd like to call him). It took only 9 or 10 days for me to receive these items. I lost a few pounds since last August so I ordered "S" size of them. And they fit a little tight. But who cares? Or dare I say it. Isn't it the point?

This is the cover of Samson , another gay magazine published in Japan. Samson is focused on elder, chubbier gay adults when compared to other gay magazines in Japan, G-men or Badi. Pontaro is known to draw the covers for Samson for two years from 2003 to 2004. Above is the cover drawn more than 10 years ago. As you can see, he is very talented and skillful in drawing chubby characters. I am sorry that he seemed to stop contributing his talent to any gay magazines.

John Grant is an American singer-songwriter who came out some years ago. I came across his song, Glacier and I could detect something that I could call 'gay-themed' from the lyrics. And when I watched the promotion video of the song, I could understand it is actually about the pain that any gay person can relate to. Enjoy the video which covers many important queer scenes throughout culture and politics.

This is the 2nd collaboration towel by Massive and Jiraiya. The first one was like this. After the 1st one was sold out. I regretted not buying that. So this time I hurried and now I got the 2nd one on my bed right now.
