DGS Hibiki goods
Went to Animate in Akihabara where they were selling the newly released DGS Hibiki goods. These goods were released on 7/22, the same day as the September issue of SYLPH.
The new items include a couple clearfiles, and a couple seal mousepads. Both the front and back of the clearfiles are shown in the photo to the left (there are only 2, not 4). The clearfiles retail for 368 yen and the seal mousepads for 315 yen.
I really like the illustrations used for the clearfiles. The ending illustration on one of the mousepads is very nice too. The other one of HiroC and OnoD I’m not too fond of because their fingers are kind of bending up, which looks really unnatural. ^^;
More goods are scheduled to be released August 5th and 26th.

More information on the radio show-produced goods will be announced on the radio show. As usual, the ASCII Media Works booth will have a display of DGS good set up.
This issue’s bonus is a little mirror strap of Kuro Nyaa san. Not the best mirror in the world, but you can’t expect too much. Also included in this issue is the form to apply for the public recording at CharaHobby.
The latest chapter of DGS Hibiki has HiroC and OnoD at the beach. They finally get a vacation!? …Not exactly. They are forced by Teraikemen Shireikan to work a food stall to make some small change. Black Hibiki shows up and when HiroC asks Nozomu why they quit Hibiki, Nozomu tells him that as Hibiki, there are some rules that must be followed, and that there will come a time when HiroC and OnoD, too, have to make a decision. We’ll have to find out later what Nozomu means by this.

The cast of Black Hibiki was revealed in the latest August issue of SYLPH (released 6/22). Sakuya will be voiced by Okiayu Ryoutarou and Nozomu by Yonaga Tsubasa. A release date has still yet to be announced for the new drama CD. This issue’s bonus includes a mascot figure strap of OnoD. Very cute! The detail on it is quite amazing.
More DGS goods will be released in July and August. Included are new fastener accessories, clear files, mini clocks, seal mousepads, and more! They will be available at anime shops and Animate. Preorders are already open at the Animate Online Shop and Movic. Personally I think it would have been nice if they used new illustrations instead of recycled images from the game and previous goods.

The online shop Getchu.com has listed a new Dear Girl ~Stories~ opening and ending theme single, titled Yume no DearGirl Otoko. This single has not yet been announced on the radio show, but according to this website it will be release August 11, 2010 and retail for 1260 yen, tax included.
The product page can be found here.
In the title, yume (dream) is written as yabou (ambition).
The single seems to have been listed on Amazon Japan but the page is no longer available. Same with the Animate online shop, JBOOK, and a few other retailers. Perhaps they leaked the pre-order too early. After some searching, there are some who have their pre-order page up, such as Rakuten Books and Guruguru Ou Koku. Since many reputable retailers have/had pre-order pages up, it can be assumed that there will indeed be a new opening and ending

HiroC/OnoD

OnoD
theme for DGS within the next few months.
As you may know, the August issue of SYLPH, to be released June 22, will include a mascot figure of OnoD. The SYLPH editors’ blog now has photos of it over here. When I went to Animate in Ikebukuro a couple weeks ago, I found that they had a real sample of it on display. Photos are on the left.
