    Hang in There, Kogasa-san 1942

    And this is why I've been making fanzine display shelves and such. I've also got stuff I made because I wanted it to begin with!

    The processor still isn't in normal condition, by the way. The Y-axis stepping motor still judders and stops a lot, so I think I'll check the contact of its connector.

    I got all these choices together but never got around to making a survey...

    What have you bought but never used/built?
    • Video game
    • Plastic model kit
    • Reference book
    • Organizational item
    • Megalixir

    Reader-added tags include "Farewell, Kogasa-san", "Survey of wasteful mentality", and "About ¥150,000".

    I've had model kits sit there...

    And if he got that setup for $1384 USD (as of today's exchange rates), that wasn't expensive at all. And it looks like he typically goes two hours per session, if the one Shidax visit is ¥1250, based on a ¥625/hour rate.

    What's a Shidax?

    It's a company which runs a bunch of service industry chains, including karaoke.

    Based a translation of this Pixiv comments on post #1204486, it looks like his karaoke sessions (now) tend to go for 2-3 hours, which means he's spending between ¥1250-¥1875 per session, twice a week.

    So 120 SHIDAX in this case represent his karaoke funds for about 60 weeks/14 months.
