かもすぞー

I learned from the hamster last Saturday that A. oryzae plushies were being sold already. So off I dashed to the neighborhood Animate shop to get me one of these cute things.

Animate is having a one month Moyashimon fair. Plushies aside, there are also other Moyashimon merchandise for sale, such as notebooks, stickers, CD’s and DVD’s.

Mayasuki tells him that the head mounted device is equipped with a gyroscope, used to maintain orientation. Tarou finds it amazing. He asks if Masayuki plays with it a lot. Masayuki replies he doesn’t. He says it’s not so much a game compared to therapy. Tarou asks Masayuki if has a condition. Masayuki tells him he only has a small fear of heights. He thought he could get rid out it with virtual reality. Tarou then asks if it would be possible to cure it that way. Masayuki tells him it is, by intentionally experiencing the cause of the phobia.
