Vampire Knight Plushies, Doujin and other Stuff
Lately I've gotten a bunch of questions about where to find various Vampire Knight merchandise stuff, specifically the plushies I mentioned in a previous post, as well as things like Doujinshi. So I thought I'd make a quick post with links to the places I'm currently aware of. Amazon and Ebay seem to be the best sources generally.
The Takuma plushie seems to be the newest, he wasn't there when I got mine - so it's possible they may eventually do the entire Night Class, which would be cool! :D They have cool key chains and patches on Amazon too, just do a search for "Vampire Knight" and see what pops up.
Over on Ebay, there's seems a record number of Vampire Knight Doujinshi available at the moment. It's pretty hard to find some of these (VK Doujin in general is pretty rare it seems), so if you're interested you might want to check them out.
I have all of them but the first one, "Secret Garden". I'm sorely tempted, but I really haven't got the funds right now sadly. They're all more or less Kaname x Zero, although Iridescence Jewel is more Trio-based. If you're looking for mostly *cough* porny *cough* reasons, I recommend "Hunter, Hunted" and "Beast's Garden" as they're the most graphic of the ones I have. :)
With ebay you have to act fast though, a couple of these are going to expire soon and you never know when someone else might buy it. You can find other VK stuff on ebay too, of course.
For physical stores, if you have an FYE in your area, they often carry Vampire Knight stuff, as does (less frequently) Hot Topics. Okay, that's all the places I can think of right now. Feel free to list more in the comments if you know of any. :)
Oh, as a small, unrelated PS... keep your fingers crossed, but I think I might be able to finish and post the next chapter of Secrets in the Dark this weekend! I will certainly try!! :)

Thanks for posting those links ^^
I'm particularly interested in Iridescence Jewel but as much as I like the art style and the storyline looks great, it's kind of disapointing not to be able to understand it. uh, if only it was in english. Oh well, I kinda understand the author of the doushinji tough, it's pricey to do a doushinji so it would be too much trouble to print a english version.
I...saw the images of the Beast Party in a video on Youtube. My eyes were bleeding, it's way too graphic for a prude like me > x < Poor Zero, he looked so pained when trying to drink the blood tablets. *glares a bit at Kaname*
I'm still a bit scared.

VK doujin exists?! I remember when I first became a fan it was really hard to come by... as in I never saw any o_o
So excited for new Secrets! You are my favorite writer. I feel like I replace the real Kaname/Zero with yours. :)

k1216: Yeah, that's always the problem with Doujin, the language barrier. :P But I usually have fun making up my own stories to go with the pictures, although they're probably totally different from what's actually happening. LOL
LOL well yeah, Beast's Party was pretty angsty, although it ends up sweet. Again, I put this whole story of my own creation to it in my mind and then it was pretty cool... XD But, um, yeah, definitely NOT advised if you don't want graphic images. :)
Anon: I know, they're still REALLY hard to find. Usually there's only one or two on ebay at a time and I never see them at conventions or anything. I wish there were more. Thanks!!!! :D Aw, wow! Thank you!
KanameZero4Eva: Cool! Afraid I don't know of any places were they're scanned. I'd love a translation of them too. I know that scanning Doujin can be pretty frowned upon since it can discourage artists from making more, but I wish they would translate the ones for sale or include a translation, wouldn't that be cool?! I wonder why no one's thought of that, I bet it would make their value go way up.

Hi!
I've always wondered about that Vampire's Sweet dj. Does it contain any graphic scenes? What is it about judging by the pictures?

Kazekeshi: It isn't very graphic. Honestly, I can't really tell what it's about by the picutres at all, LOL it's cute but doesn't make a lot of sense.
