Sometimes when I order things, I don't pay attention to the size on the listing. So when I received CHANxCO's Minibon 2 (ミニボン2), filled with Wooser, Puella Magi Madoka Magica, and Steins;Gate illustrations, I also gained a more vivid understanding of what 120mm x 120mm really looks like ^^;

Minibon 2 is full-color and about the size of a CD booklet. It's 20-pages including the covers, and there are illustrations even on the inside covers. Although CHANxCO can draw full-sized elaborate characters, it's the mini ones that are the focus of this collection. This booklet starts out with 4-pages featuring Wooser and friends.

The Steins;Gate section is 6-pages, and includes individual as well as group illustrations of the characters. They're super small illustrations for the most part too, as they occupy half of the already tiny 120mm pages.

Minibon 2 finishes with Puella Magi Madoka Magica art works, including single page solo illustrations of each of the girls along with a two-page group illustration. It's a cute book, but it was selling for ￥600 after Comiket, and I would have priced it closer half that ^^;
