Yurie Hitotsubashi from Alter
Alter seems to be making some really cute figures that are more akin to the figurines in a card and gift shop than the fan service type figures I usually get. Yurie seems a little less pastel than Hagu, but I still group her with Hagu. Glad to put Yurie in the collection. Kamichu! is [...]
Kureha
Kureha was already out on the balcony when I decided to escape from the party for a few minutes of cool autumn air. I almost turned around because I’m horrible at trying to come up with small talk, the reason I needed to hide from the party for a few, but the way she gazed [...]
Magical Pokan Uma
Uma flies before dawn. It is rough waking up that early, but she rises when the rest of the world sleeps so that nobody can see her flight practice. Uma is a witch and not exactly the most adept magical girl. Sometimes Uma finds herself flying upside down, flashing her wears, so she practices alone [...]

Ryuna, a Paper Umbrella, and Blanc

Ryomou Shimei
Ryomou Shimei, Blue Nurse version, is my first Ikki Tousen figure. Hard to believe I avoided them for so long, but most of the figures just seemed to go a little too far with the ripped clothes and blatant poses. I know, I know, how can a fan of Ikki Tousen (especially the manga) complain [...]
Pachira PVC, La Vampire Chica
I was a little surprised at the popularity of this Pachira is Vampire figure from Max Factory — a second run was announced before I even received my first run figure (thanks to my cc classing anime girl pvc figures from Japan as suspicious activity). The Magical Pokan anime isn’t the most popular out there [...]
