Chic Pixel Anniversary Giveaway

1 / 19 / 16

Chic Pixel Anniversary Giveaway

Can you believe it’s been five years since I first started Chic Pixel? I certainly can’t! It’s been a long road, but also an extremely fun one, and I’m so grateful for everyone who visits the site. To give a little something up, I’ve teamed up with the awesome folks at OyatsuBox to offer one premium Japanese snack box to one lucky reader!

OyatsuBox was the first Japanese snack subscription box I reviewed back in March 2014, and despite reviewing many similar services since, it’s still my favorite! To be in the running to win one of their premium boxes, which contains 10-14 full-sized Japanese snacks and gachapon, just enter via the widget below before January 23rd at 11:59 pm Pacific Time. The giveaway is open worldwide, so don’t miss out on your chance to win!

Code: Realize and Norn9 Dating Sim Giveaway!

1 / 12 / 161 / 18 / 16

Code: Realize and Norn9 Dating Sim Giveaway

To celebrate the Dating Sim Community Game-Along this January, I’ve teamed up with Aksys Games to offer not one, but two awesome otome games to one lucky winner! For a chance to win digital PS Vita copies of both Code: Realize ~Guardian of Rebirth~ and Norn9: Var Commons, enter using the widget below by midnight, January 20th Pacific Time. Entering is easy, and you can exponentially increase your chances the more actions you complete, so go crazy!

Code: Realize is a romance visual novel set in a steampunk version of England, where protagonist Cardia is desperate to uncover the secret behind a mysterious disease that rots anything she touches. It also happens to be my favorite otome game of 2015! Norn9, on the other hand, is a sci-fi romance featuring three different protagonists and a whopping 9 romance-able characters. Be sure to check out the anime adaptation currently airing in Japan and simulcasting on Hulu!

Giveaway is open worldwide, and the winner will have their choice of NA or EU PSN codes. Update: I have been notified that some people are abusing the referral link option by not notifying people that they are entering the giveaway via a referral. Referral links must be shared through the social media/email options within the widget or clearly state that they are referral links. Any extra entries gained through referrals by other means will be disqualified.

Steins;Gate Birthday Giveaway! (EU PSN Code)

12 / 10 / 1512 / 10 / 15

Steins;Gate Birthday Giveaway

My birthday is coming up, and you know what that means… It’s the perfect time to host a giveaway! Why should I be the only one getting presents?

I have one code for a digital copy of Steins;Gate for PS Vita up for grabs! It is only valid on the European PSN store, but it is very easy to make a European PSN account if you don’t have one and would still like to enter; just remember that it will take a little finagling to switch regions on your PS Vita (Kotaku has a good guide if you’ve never tried it before). The giveaway is open worldwide until December 17th at 11:59 pm Pacific Time.

Just use the nifty widget below to enter, and stay tuned for my holiday giveaway coming up next week!

People are quick to blame the translators for these things but I 100% guarantee no pro translator scrubbed these lines of their own volition. This was definitely mandated possibly even by Nintendo Japan. Don't blame little guys doing their jobs, blame the corporations. https://twitter.com/Mondblut1984/status/1617857848385622018

Sharing art + making a video = ANXIETY OVERLOAD 😫😅 Anywaaay, I loved this screenshot from ACPC @cozynamie took so much that I tried recreating it with two different mediums! Colored pencils were my first attempt, gouache second. It’s good practice to do the same piece a couple of times! Thanks again @cozynamie for letting me use your screenshot as a ref 💕
