Kio reveals his love of soccer/football and pays tribute to Mizuki Ichiro in this month’s tweets.
“This is what makes soccer interesting!” (Japan beat Spain in the 2022 World Cup on December to advance out of the group stage.)
Kio declares that he won’t buy any new model kits until he gets through these The Five Star Stories kits. Some of them are actually 20 years old.
Kio finally tries the word balloon tool in Clip Studio Paint. He thinks he’s slowly coming to understand it.
Kio got out his disk copier to make a copy of the 2018 World Cup games he recorded. He’s also impressed by Croatia’s hard-fought win in overtime over Japan. Kio wishes he could have seen Japan in Top 8, though.
Kio compares Croatia’s momentum in the World Cup to a steamroller that crushes every other country’s dreams.
Kio is building one of his The Five Star Stories/GothicMade kits, and shows the parts. When asked if it’s the Kaiserin, Kio answers that it’s the Empress.
Kio also bought paints just for it.

Someone asks where he got a certain kit he showed back in January 2022, but Kio responds that it was a present from a reader and no longer available for purchase.
Kio responds to someone who has the same Empress kit from an old Wonder Festival, and how the knees make it hard to pose standing. However, someone else shows what they’ve managed to pull off, which impresses Kio. He also agrees with someone who finds that the way the pieces are arranged in the box is similar to Tamiya’s motorcycle model kits.
Food from the store that prepares it for Kio’s pet tortoise.
The age of the model kit shows in a bit of deterioration.
The tortoise eats! There’s a video too!
Kio pays his respects to legendary anime singer Mizuki Ichiro.
Kio talks to the store that gave him his tortoise food, and mentions how quickly his pet ate through it all.
He can’t find his Vallejo primer.
Still having trouble with the Empress’s legs. Also, there are some extra parts whose purpose he’s unsure of.

Not a Kio tweet, but note that there are special web chapters of Spotted Flower out this month! They feature debut of Not-Sasahara’s sister, Not-Keiko.
In response to the Rakuen account saying, “We want to see you do this from the bottom of our hearts!” Kio writes, “This is editorial saying this to a manga artist.”
Kio was thinking about the career of Lionel Messi after Argentina’s 2022 World Cup victory all throughout lunch. He remembers a young Messi moving to Spain, contrasts with Maradona, how that World Cup trophy eluded him, and how we can finally call him history’s greatest footballer. (If it isn’t clear by now, Kio is definitely a fan of soccer/football).
As a follower points out, Kio wrote about Messi (written “Messhi” in Japanese) while eating a meal (meshi).
Kio discovered that he had a spray can of primer after all. He found it in a cardboard box.
More tortoise chow from the same company as before.

Kio mentions that he has a kit for the Engage from The Five Star Stories on the way.
Kio enjoyed the final episode of Bocchi the Rock!
The tortoise is enjoying the heat lamp, but seems to be sleeping even more than usual.
Kio tried to lightly brush the primer he sprayed, but brushing and spraying are just inherently different.
Kio wants to get better at both building plastic models and drawing ero manga, but doesn’t feel that he’s made much progress on either.

He also bought these special glasses for plastic model building.
