Wow.

This blog is really old.
These days, a person wouldn't even create a blog on this platform. Plenty of other platforms, such as Tumblr, allow for easier sharing to reach a wider audience.
Even so, it's nice to post on here, where there's probably no one reading. At some point in history, this blog was pretty popular and had some really loyal readers. I wonder if they'd ever come back, were I to start posting again.
I started university a few weeks ago, and I've been running my iD L and P's. The P's is surprisingly cute; I'd forgotten about all the surprises in the toy: working at the park, going to school, meeting and dating girls at the park. It seems to capture a few elements of real life in the most hilarious possible way.
If you'd like to see anything on this blog, let me know in the comments.
That's all for now!

A Year Passes...

The title of this post is pretty self-explanatory. It's been mighty close to a year since I made a post on here at all. In the meantime, I haven't been running my Tamagotchis much. This entire year has been something of a whirlwind, but through it all, my Tamagotchis have been whispering to me--as have a few of my followers. I've been really excited to start up my iD L, so today, I think that's what I'll do.

A friend and I have also been dabbling with Tamagotchi Akais this year. The Akai is fascinating and easy to care for; its red pixels make it a gem among Tamagotchis. It also boasts some hilarious and entertaining animations: in the snacks section, for instance, the Akai features red wine, which has different effects on the character depending on its stage of life. The effects are absurdly realistic.

School ends in less than a week, at which point I'll graduate and be considered a functioning member of society. The notion is pretty scary, given that I, as a functioning member of society:

1. have a Tamagotchi blog
2. am too lazy to finish the infinitesimal amount of homework that's due next week
3. consistently have trouble shifting my mom's car into third gear
4. wasted ten dollars buying a Sanskrit textbook to no foreseeable benefit
5. am too lazy to mow my lawn and would rather cut it with scissors
6. have a Tamagotchi blog.

And all summer, I'll have to deliberate over which Tamagotchis to take to university and which, if any, I should sell. 

Stay as immature as possible!

Thanks for reading.

Hellooooo

Hi everyone! It's been ages (yeah I've said that too many times) but today I felt like posting again.
I haven't been doing much Tamagotchi stuff recently, but apparently many things are happening (and have happened) in the sphere of Tamagotchi fans.

So, we've got:
Tamagotchi Friends Europe release (happened)
Tamagotchi 4U Japan release (coming on September 27)
Tamagotchi Friends America release (this fall)

Am I missing anything? I looked through TamaTalk but really, there's so much about each new release that I couldn't read through it all.
Could anyone give a general overview of these new Tamagotchi releases?


If I start up a Tamagotchi soon, I might try the Tama-Go or the iD L. At the moment I'm not that into Tamagotchis unfortunately. Most likely that's just because I was so busy and now I really just want to relax.

Signing off for now!

[Video] I'm back...

Happy Easter!

Hey everyone!

I've been on hiatus for almost 6 months. Been so busy with school that I barely ran Tamagotchis at all. (I ran a V2 and V3 for a few days I think.)

Yesterday, though, I started up my black Tama-Go. I discovered a five-year-old, tenth-generation Tarakotchi whom I called Frizz. My choice in names is spectacular, but I don't even remember the last time I was running this Tamagotchi. (the beginning of the school year?)

I popped in my Violetchi figure and had fun failing at the "pingpong" game. 

But Violetchi came to celebrate Easter!

More fun with the Easter Bunny.

I'm really glad to be running a Tamagotchi again. I think I'll stick to the Tama-Go for 

now, since it quite literally cannot die and this last stretch of the school year is too busy for my liking.

Once summer comes I hope to start buying some more Tamagotchis; I haven't bought one since last June! I've heard a lot about the Tamagotchi Friends and Dream Town is fairly fun (but would be better with a Tamagotchi). What do you guys think of the Tamagotchi Friends? Leave your answers in the comments. :)

Hope to see you all a lot more in the future!

Thanks always for readng; mata atode!

Venus

Hey everyone! I've been gone a while and it looks like this school year's pretty homework-laden so my posts are probably few and far between.

Alice left her baby Petitchi girl. I named her Venus.

I was really busy over the week so I left Venus in the name screen for a while. 

So once I hatched her, Venus's age showed up as 4 years. Whoops.

So at the moment, Venus is still a baby. Once she evolves into a toddler, I'll make another post.  

Any ideas on what character I should aim for? (Venus is a third generation.) Feel free to leave a comment anytime! 

Thanks for reading; mata atode!

Alice's Baby

A few weeks ago, I was sitting in history class, bored as usual. My Tamagotchi V2 was in my pocket, so I checked on her. It was around 10:30 am, I believe.

I looked at the screen, but instead of seeing Alice, I saw the matchmaker. I pushed a button and she showed me a partner (I can't remember which character he was). 

Alice married this guy, and after the wedding she had a baby girl!

I paused Alice for quite a while after that because I was busy with schoolwork (imagine that). Since it's a long weekend, I felt like unpausing her and blogging again.

Since Alice is now 9 years old, I'm expecting that she'll leave pretty soon.

I'm not sure what to name this baby girl; I'll think of something though!
That's all for now.
Thanks for reading; mata atode!

PS: I'm thinking of making another collection video or a vlog video soon. What do you think? Leave any suggestions in the comments!

Alice

Alice is now 6 years old and looking great! It seems like the matchmaker should show up soon. 

 Here are some pictures as promised.

Alice in her usual Hiratchi form.

She also tried on a costume and looks like a bandit Mimitchi.

But that's all for today. Thanks for reading!

Tamagotchi V2

Hey everyone! It's been a busy school year so far, and right now I'm traveling. I haven't been using my color Tamagotchis lately, but I started my V2 back up yesterday. Right now, I have an adult girl Hiratchi named Alice. Alice is 5 years old and a second generation. I haven't got a camera on my hands at the moment, but I'll try to post some pictures of her when I can. She's a really cute character, even though she's apparently a neglected care character. (Click here to find a V2 growth chart; I saw the care levels on the Tamagotchi Wikia.)
It seems that Alice will get married pretty soon. I'll try to keep you posted.
Today's question: What kinds of names do you give to your Tamagotchis?
Thanks for reading; comment with feedback or just to say hi. Mata atode!

Giragiratchi

Hey everyone! School started last Thursday but I've got enough time for a blog post today.

Aya evolved into a Giragiratchi (a girl secret character) and got her first happy symbol, the sparkly scrunchie. Then she got her second happy symbol, the TamaMori tree, and her fourth happy symbol since I kept her with me for 48 hours. We haven't found her third happy symbol yet.
She also got a pet, Harapparatchi.

Aya and Harapparatchi having fun outside.

Aya and Harapparatchi getting a letter from Yoji.

Yoji went out to the park this morning and ended up working at the TamaDepa. I'll upload a picture of this record in another post, since the iPod was acting up and wouldn't let me upload so many pictures at once.
Another surprise on the Tamagotchi P's is Eco Town, which we unlocked when Yoji helped clean up the park a couple weeks ago. When Yoji rides his Eco Car to visit Eco Town, the Eco People give him a fresh vegetable like a carrot or tomato . . . or soft serve ice cream! :P

Yoji gets soft serve ice cream from the inhabitants of Eco Town.

Once I find Aya's final happy symbol, I'll marry Aya and Yoji (and possibly post a video of the wedding). They should make a cute couple and I'm ready for another generation on these Tamagotchis.

I ordered a Tamagotchi P's case from oddsandendswithlove on TamaTalk, so I'll show that once it arrives.
I'm also considering buying pierces for my P's. Does anyone have ideas on which pierces to buy? I'm looking at the Love Melo pierce since I'm so fond of Melodytchi, but a lot of the other pierces look cool too. The Baby Change pierce isn't too appealing to me, though.

That's all for now. Any questions, thoughts, ideas, or whatever else, just leave a comment below.

Painaputchi

Last week, I left for vacation. This week, I've been super busy. School starts in four days, and I haven't even gone back-to-school shopping yet! I haven't been able to run my Tamagotchis or post much, but I did get some things done, and I hope my life gets a little less hectic in the future.

On my iD L, Aya has now evolved into a Painaputchi. Additionally on my Tamagotchi P's, Yoji got all his puzzle pieces: a computer, space food, a helmet, and keeping him for 24 hours. I really like the concept of the puzzle pieces; you have to put together several elements to make total happiness!

Additionally, Yoji got a pet named Yumekyantchi.

Since I've had Painaputchi on my iD L so many times, I've decided to try for the secret adult  by connecting Aya and Yoji repetitively. I'm also hoping that once Aya is an adult for a while, she and Yoji can get married.

I've noticed a lot of cute surprises on my P's so far. Two weeks ago (it's been that long already!), Yoji went to the park and worked as a park patrol of some sort. He busted some guys for littering and such.

Also, Yoji and I went outside the other day and a giant Café bus came by and offered 50% off coupons for the Cafe and it is a permanent coupon, just like the Eco Fork on the iD L. 

I'm excited to see what else shows up on my Tamagotchi P's! :)

Aya

I've been meaning to do a blog post for the past few days...
Wow, it's August already. Where did the time go???

On my iD L, Usagi got all her happy symbols (Flower hat, kendama toy, Fuwafuwa Castella, and staying with me for 48 hours), then got married to a Shinshitchi and had a baby girl Momoirotchi, whom I named Aya.

Usagi spends some quality time with Aya.

After Usagi said goodbye to her daughter, I got to start our second generation.
An hour later, Aya evolved into a Paletchi. She is a very cute toddler, even though I've had Paletchi more times than I can count.

Aya

On my Tamagotchi P's, Yoji became an adult. He is a Raitotchi, and his current attribute/skill point is "gourmet." I haven't yet discovered all the work and school features, so I'll certainly have to do that!

Yoji just loves his appearance. :D

Semi-important sidenote: I have had my USB-IrDA dongle for almost a year now, and I've never gotten it to work. However, all my tries have been on computers running Windows Vista. My mom's computer recently got upgraded to Windows 7, so I want to try downloads on that computer and see if that works.
And please see this lovely topic on TamaZone where you can find information on many Japanese Tamagotchis. It gives you access to growth charts, downloads, instructions, and all kinds of help.

So that's all for now! I'll post more once I've got new evolutions and happy symbols (or puzzle pieces, as they're now called)!

Thanks for reading. Mata atode!

Yoji

As I mentioned, Yoji hatched when I started up my Tamagotchi P's. he was a baby Aokumotchi. (Basically Blue-Cloud-tchi if you translate it.)

An hour later, he evolved into a Turtletchi. He was so adorable and I regret not taking photos of him.

A few days later, he became a Maimaitchi. He looks like a little snail!!

Yoji hangs out.

Usagi is still a Furawatchi. She still hasn't gotten all her happy symbols, but we're working on it! I'm a little sad that she's a first-generation Tamagotchi, but at least I didn't lose all the destinations and items that I earned through TamaTomo generations.

Based on this really nice growth chart,  Yoji could become a Rightchi, Kuchipatchi, Nandetchi, Mogumogutchi, Monakatchi, Spacytchi, Doyatchi, or Atchitchi. His current personality is "gourmet."

I really do like the Tamagotchi P's so far. The characters are a little more like real animals and less traditionally Tamagotchi-ish, but they are still super cute, and the toy is a lot of fun. I'm excited to see what the Deco Pierces can offer once I get some of them, and I love being able to connect my iD L and Tamagotchi P's. Someday, but not this Tamagotchi generation, I hope to marry these critters. :)

But that's all for now!
Thanks for reading! Mata atode!

Wow!!

I got home from vacation on the midnight flight a few weeks ago, and my Tamagotchi P's had arrived in the mail!! So I made an unboxing video and started up the Tamagotchi before I went to bed. Guess I'll need a better camera next time.

But anyway...
Holy cow, I haven't posted for almost 3 weeks! I just got home from camp, and I was busy with other stuff recently too, such as an online summer class (never ever doing that again) and sports. But now I'm back and I wanted to do some blog posts!
Tomorrow, I hope to put up some pictures of Usagi and the new Tamagotchi P's, whom I named Yoji. I'll give Yoji's growth tomorrow, he is currently a teen. I'm really liking the Tamagotchi P's so far, because the characters are cute and the device is very polished. I'd love to get a few Deco Pierces for it as well.
But right now, I'm really tired and want to go to bed.
So good night! Thanks for reading!

Furawatchi/Flowertchi/Violetchi/Whatever

A few days ago, Usagi on my iD L evolved into a Furawatchi. I was going to take some pictures of her, but she ran out of batteries, and I haven't got any spare AAA's with me. I'll put new batteries in her once I'm done with vacation.
But we got her first happy symbol, which was (surprise, surprise) the flower hat. She looked pretty cute in it; I can't wait to get a picture once I'm home.
And of course, when I get home, I'll be able to open up my Tamagotchi P's that arrived there. I think I'll do an "unboxing" video, which will be more of an unpackaging video since I don't think my Tamagotchi P's is coming in the original box. :P
But anyway, mata atode!

Teen Tama!

Hey! Happy July, and happy Canada Day for all y'all up north. :)
I'm on vacation, and I haven't been able to do a whole lot of Tamagotchi-ing, but there was a recent evolution on my iD L.
Usagi evolved into a Sabosabotchi. I'm glad, because I haven't had many adults from Sabosabotchi. I'll see what she becomes; I don't mind as long as she isn't Shigurehimetchi (I've already had her).

Usagi is happy.

Besides that, I've been enjoying the nice summer weather, reading lots of books outside, and relaxing a little bit. I've got some busy days ahead of me this summer!
But I'll wait for Usagi to evolve before I get too busy.
Thanks for reading; mata atode!

Vacation

So as some of you might know, I left for vacation two days ago. When I arrived here, my mom sent me an email and said my Tamagotchi P's had arrived back home. It was one day late and I wasn't there to see it. I'll be back home in a little under three weeks, so the Tamagotchi P's at home gives me something to look forward to. I'll probably do a review/"unboxing" video when I get home.
Anyway, I brought both my Tamagotchi Music Stars and Tama-Gos with me, along with my iD L! I think I'll start running that one today! And when I mentioned that the Music Stars got married, I didn't mention to whom.
Joshua got married to a Chantotchi and had a baby boy.

Chino? got married to a Kunoitchi and had a baby girl.

And I had my iD L on pause. Unfortunately, Aimi, who was a Hinonetchi at the time, came off pause while I was traveling (I guess the B button got pushed too many times inside my suitcase) and then evolved into Uwasatchi while off pause, then ran away. She was 3 years old and a 9th generation. She left this note:

Really, I did not wish to get is divided in this way. . . If I See You in turn, I hope if you are to be with you more. . . Bye-bye

[I translated that with Google Translate]
Aimi, I'm so sorry! I'll miss you! But I'm glad you didn't actually die.
I started a new generation, and it hatched into a little girl Momoirotchi.

I named her Usagi, which means "rabbit" in Japanese. Nicely enough, the iD L kept all my TamaTomos, items, and TamaTomo-unlocked areas, and Aimi the Uwasatchi never showed up in the list because she never became a TamaTomo character. The only change is, Usagi is a first-generation character.
An hour later, she evolved into Paletchi. I didn't get a picture this time because my camera's battery died.
That's all for now! Thanks for reading; mata atode!

Adulthood

This morning, I woke up and Frizz and Andrew had evolved! Frizz had become a Tarakotchi and Andrew was another Necktietchi. Guess I didn't take great care of them, but I'm glad to have Tarakotchi because I've never had him before.

Frizz

Frizz close up

Andrew

Also today, Joshua and Chino? each got married by the matchmaker. I'll post some pictures of them tomorrow!
That's all for now! Thanks for reading; mata atode!

Tamagotchi P's

I ordered a Tamagotchi P's on Sunday morning via eBay. Yesterday it was shipped from its original location, and according to the tracking the P's should be here by Thursday, just in time so I can take it along with me on vacation!
Today, there were no evolutions. But I think Andrew and Frizz should evolve into adults tomorrow on the Tama-Gos, and my Music Stars should get married pretty soon.
Getting way too excited for my P's!! Does anyone have a basic idea of the gameplay? Is it anything like the iD L?
I've been thinking I should run the P's (if it gets here) and my iD L during my vacation, and I can blog about those. Then I might take the batteries out of my Tama-Gos and Music Stars. What do you think?
Ah, so many questions today!
Thanks for reading; mata atode!

Tamagotchi Misadventure!

This morning, Andrew evolved into a Korokotchi. By the time I had to leave the house to go on a hike, Frizz hadn't evolved yet. So I took him with me in the car on the way there, and he evolved by the time we reached the mountain to go hiking. I paused him and left him on the seat of the car.
Apparently, that was not a good idea. It was already hot and sunny outside, so think about being inside a hot sunny metal car! Blisteringly hot.
When I got back to the car two and a half hours later, Frizz's screen was almost completely black and illegible. And being a black Tamagotchi, he got extra super overheated. I was very worried at first, but eventually his screen started going back to normal (still very dark). And Frizz was still upset with me. I can't blame him, really.
On the way home, we stopped at the grocery store. I ordered myself an iced chai at the grocery store Starbucks kiosk to try and cool down, and I gave Frizz the treat of joining me in the freezing grocery store as well. Finally he got over his heat exhaustion and his screen returned to its properly whitish state, and I think Frizz forgave me.
Once Frizz and I got home, I unpaused Andrew and told him all about our misadventure. He was jealous! I can't imagine why, but it must be that he's never been left alone in a hot car and had his home turn black.
Andrew and Frizz definitely slept well though. They fell asleep before I could even get a picture of them awake!

Frizz asleep!

Thanks for reading; mata atode!

PS: I can't believe I forgot! I won an eBay auction this morning, and now a new Tamagotchi P's is headed this way! I'm so excited and I hope it arrives before I go on vacation this Friday because I'll be gone for a few weeks.
