Nerd Web Roundup: Cure Maid Cafe does Macross, Kaiba Artworks posted, Jump/Magazine win Advertising Awards
As long as I’m logged out of wow, some more very quick links that I found interesting via katoyu–
Cure Maid Cafe is running a Macross event from 2/7-2/22. From what I understand, Cure Maid Cafe isn’t really the kind of place that has their maids dress up for events like this, so I think it’s going to be limited to the special menu (drink a Lynn Minmay (Blueberry syrup + calpis)! Or a Nekki Basara (Grenadine, soda, strawberry syrup, tabasco)!!) , special cookies, goods, and coasters. I have to admit that I still haven’t been to Cure, too busy filling out my schatzkiste point card ww
