Nakama-rama!!
By Iris Ophelia | June 30, 2006
Well it’s safe to say that my time on this blog has unveiled my nerdier tendencies, but in spite of that, hear me out about the Nakama sim at least once (because I will be gushing about it for quite awhile). I was fortunate enough to get invited in for a sneak peak at the Nakama sim, and I’ll say this: while the sime has an asian/anime theme in its four sectors, even if you aren’t an anime fan, take the time to explore this extensive build. There were amazing little surprises around every corner, and it is one of the best builds I have seen so far.
But why post this here? Builds are great, but you can’t wear them. Have you wondered what Nephilaine Protagonist has been up to? Well since this is her partner Neil’s build, she’s been working hard herself (along with a team of other gifted individuals like Launa Fauna and Torrid Midnight, and a slew of others) and has designed many stunning items of clothing specifically for sale in Nakama. Skins and clothes in a line-art and cellshading style uniquely theirs are available for purchase. The skins are those that can be seen in Nephilaine’s ads for Citoyenne and the Citoyenne Bodice, as a matter of fact. There are kimonos and cheongsam style dresses of course, but also a series of cute dresses and tops you don’t have to be into the asian scene to appreciate. Look for other Nakama exclusive products tucked around the corners of Nakama, including new work from Panache! The Nakama sim is set to open tomorrow, July 1st, so don’t miss a single prim of it.

I’ve been waiting for something like this for so long–when I first started SL, anime stuffs was on the fringes and relatively difficult to find, if “out there”. Now, we’ve got things like this, and native Japanese (June Dion of Bare@Rose, Ameshin Yossarian, the MaHaRoBa group, etc.) growing fruit!
